Happy Thoughts

A lot have happened since I last blogged and I'm glad all went as planned. First and foremost, my ROM has been smooth, thanks a bunch to my family and my wonderful buddies who made it to my lunch reception. In fact, I felt like a celebrity for a couple of hours LOL. I had been having these images in my head as to how things would turn out to be and believe me, I would crap my pants out just thinking about it =P

Next, I had so much fun (minus the part where I can't shop till I drop due to financial constraints) shopping for books at the BBW sale. I think I spent around RM1XX and I was happy because I got some books for my mother and my Godson too =) A little bit of love goes the long way. And the aftermath sale will be next month and I believe this time I'll have enough money to slap the Big Bad Wolf in the face and get away with a lot of books! Hahahahaha. I wasn't so happy because I would spend more than RM200 if I could. The sad thing was, I couldn't afford it. But it's still okay. Managed to fill up the top shelf with my books.

Other than these two things, I don't know what else can make me happy other than reading =) Reading is such an intense activity which is great for our brains! I'm having vivid scenes that watching movies alone will not provide the same effects. I can read for hours but my eyes will eventually weigh down as the day closes in. I would encourage people to invest in books that will broaden their horizon and perspectives on the world and life. Experiences can only do so much. Why not see life from another person's perspective?

  1. Hmm... We are really people who love reading. I will read for hours either standing or squatting at bookstore and eventually buy some books which are still affordable:-) I can't agree more with you that reading from another person's perspective will undoubtedly broaden one's horizon. Gambate:-)

  2. Yes Senpai, and I've found a book store which sells books at 70% - 80% discounted rate! And those are brand new books, not second-hand or donated books. The next time you come here, I'll bring you there =)
