Book-A-Shopping-Trip

I lugged a bagful of second-hand books home yesterday, with more than a satisfied smile on my silly face.

I had happily spent half a day in a second-hand bookstore at Bras Basah, turning over mountains of dusty books to add on to my collection of vintage books. My! I actually felt dizzy after standing-squatting up and down so many times just to scan all the titles carefully. It's real silly if you think about it. I find my treasure trove from other people's castaways.

It was a real harvest for me yesterday I must say. I got almost what I was looking for with some unexpected rare finds. I found an original Peter Beatrix 's children nusery rhymes book printed in Britain and in very, very good condition! Just for a dollar!!

I should be able to update my geekdom this coming weekend.
