    The document provides tips for annotating texts by circling the main idea, underlining key phrases and details, boxing unknown words, and writing side commentary every two paragraphs to help the reader better understand and remember the information. It emphasizes annotating the text as a way to prevent the mind from wandering while reading and to avoid having to re-read passages multiple times. The writing style is unconventional with odd formatting and interruptions to mimic an informal conversation.
