Work starts again tomorrow! =(

Eeeps...it's only 12 hours away! Oh well, at least the long weekend was nice. =)

Went to the expo book sale today. Shoved mum into the metro sale becasue she wanted to buy luggage (and i didnt want to go to town area).

this Borders book sale is the worst one in the history of Expo book sales. What were they thinkings. 70% non-fiction, that was the oddest combi of non-fiction books I've seen. Even the travel books were almost non-existent!

As for fiction books, They only had about 3-4 tables of them. Mostly hardcover or large sizes, and up to 30% off only. Means you're still paying at least $18 to $20 for the book! =S

The book section took up a third of the already halved hall, the rest being stationery and some software stall. Thank God I didn't make a purposeful trip for it!

The only thing I was very tempted to buy was a drum learnining kit, with book, DVD, drumsticks and a practice pad. I was even considering the harmonica one..but i have to remember where my 3 harmonicas at home are!! Coz that day I was just thinking about me playing it when I was young and how dad was good at it. A small musical instrument that could play great songs with variation. It would be easy to carry anywhere not like most other clumsy instruments...hee..

ya ya....and i'd be the entertainment should i ever be detaiend somewhere..LOL.. ya know those cheesy movies where the prisoners play the harmonica? hahaha...

Oh well, in the end i didn't for several reasons lah.the difficulty about such things is its not a one size fits all. It didn't seem that suitable anyway, after rading the book in detail...so..=) as if to confirm this thought, mum called and said she was ready to go. =)

yay! dinner time! bye!
