2nd time around...

I got up early today despite sleeping quite late (was watching desperate housewives on xunlei..hehe) ..

i told mum to get ready so we could go to the book sale :) ...

We arrived 10 plus.. i said "ooh.. not too packed today.." then mum said :"like this you consider not packed ahh??" ... -.- ... i didn't notice at first but there wasn't a whole table dedicated to cookbooks anymore... but i did pick up on the additional tables for fiction <3 ... went round and round looking for Grisham..or Archer's prison diaries.. found a lot of other stuff too :) ... mum got 3 books and i got 16 ... XD ... and the total was only 130+ ... coz there's an additional 10% for OCBC card holders... muahahaha....

Mum said she overheard a lady saying that she came on the first day..the 2nd day..3rd day..and today.. and mum thought she was crazy -.- ...then i said.. "Ehh.. actually i thought of going tomorrow after college again... " then mum said "You got mental problem ahh?? (shen jing bing) "

but i only wanna go back to find "Joy Luck Club" by Amy Tan, Jeffrey Archer's prison diary I .. coz i found II and III but no I -.- ... and I was hoping to get more Grishams :( ... but anyway.. i'm already quite satisfied... :D ... it's a good thing they restock everyday but the bad thing is we won't know if they're gonna put some stuff the next day that wasn't there today.. haih...
