Just decided to spend my 50 dollars Borders gift card so I went to ParkWay Parade... surprisingly it isn;t all that far away from my house, I think all it took was a 25 minutes trip by bus... then again, my house has always been quite close to Marine Parade (presenting if you go there by car of course)
At first I was going to spend it on comics but the comics there are simply too... expensive.... (or should I say that's because chuang yi versions are like dang it much cheaper?) so i thought it a waste to spent the gift card on comics after all this was sponsored by an english teacher right? So the purpose must be to buy eng story books
And the tchr obviously did some planning before choosing to give a borders gift card after all all the books in the book stores are english books (yes, even the too-expensive comics too)
Anyways, I decided to buy Novice and Howl's Moving Castle (mainly because I watched that Jap animated movie before)
To all who have watched that movie and liked it... buying the book and reading it is highly recommended. The story is simply... addictive, yes, addictive cus I couldnt take my eyes of it since the moment I started readin the first chapter. Addictive plus enchanting, and of cus it contains more details then the movie (the movie have a time span so I guess it cant be helped), it is one of the best books that I have encountered so far...
it turns out that there is this promotion event where if you buy 3 books you get the cheapest one for freeso I bought a package containing Eragon and Eldest (for some reasons these 2 really atract me, must be the cover.... its stupid cus I even read em before, then again there's alawys books which you can read over and over again, without getting bored of ...
Feeling rather guilty cus I still didnt go and find a job, oh well....
And irritated plus annoyed due to constant nagging and maple refusing to start properly and of cus, the everlasting prob of a lagging computer.
And feeling blissed because I got new books... (did I ever mentioned how much I LOVED new books? Novels, manga and non-fic alike..)
