Finally I went book shopping today with H. We spent a lot of time at the expo centre book fair and later at time books, the result? Well I ended up spending all that I had saved up over the months and every time I regretted it, H was kind enough to remind me, ‘So what? You still have a wonderful collection to last the whole winter!’
Book buying is always so wonderfully exciting, but today I enjoyed a lot perhaps becuz I bought so many exciting original titles altogether. Yes ORIGINAL!!
But there were sooo many more kewl books on display which were simply out of reach! Not everyone can buy a modern media book for 1500, or a wonderful hardbound boxed set of Dan Brown for 1500, or the original Harry potter collection, or the very kewl titles which were all prices in pound sterling!!
But anyways, I had a wonderful time browsing the books and exclaiming at every new title like a four-year old eyeing a red lolly, and every now and then checking my wallet for cash left!
It truly was a wonderful even if I couldn’t buy to my heart’s content. Sometimes I just wish I could save all the money I squander on numerous clothes and shoes every year, and spend them at a good bookstore. That way maybe I’ll be able to fight against piracy too, like I did today! (well, to some extent :P)
