A story...A book...A part of life


You know what is one of the great joys in life? Something that lies along the lines of chocolates, food,love and travelling...It is the great pleasure that Books give you. A story, a character and a life all comes together into this paperback binded copy that rests in your hand as you snuggle up to read. You can forget where you are, what your problems and ever if anyone is calling you, you are oblivious to the world. By the way i somehow noticed today that a lot of books have the main phrase as 'How far woul you go for love/to save a loved one?'....Looks like love will always be something everyone would want to read about. From a very young age i went down the road of reading books everytime i could. I may not be one of the best reader, i am very fickle and can get bored easily so a lot of my books are half finished. But for the lucky few that hold my attention i can remember those stories forever. The other day i had to pack my entire bookshelf into a carton as one of the many things that come with leaving the country. Now though i thought i could refill it with the big list of books i gave my mom when she was leaving for India she came back with 2 books because for some god forsaken reason the bookstores in india did not have those books. But angels appear in different forms dont they :)....I have always found the bookstores here to be very expensive and could not jsut go and buy a lot of books in one go. But out of the blue today the best bookstore in the mall goes on a crash sale and sells books from 10-40 bucks...Now thats a sale i would not miss for the world(which is kind of true cause i had to leave shona halfway to rush to see my dad at the bookstore). Lines and lines of books...low prices and a lot of other book addicts. Wow what an evening it was....I am back home now with 23 books and a bill of 530 bucks. And i have never felt this satisfied in a long time.


But now lets not take away the spotlight from the other great happeneing of today...JENGA xD..no i am not talking jibberish. It is a new game that shona bought for me today. Basically it involves buidling blocks and truth and dare...now aint that a rare combination? We spent about 2 hours playing that in a kiddy playground on top of something like a tree house. We left only when it came to the point of being hounded by kids. So all in all it was a nice day...even if i may have lost the game 3 out of the 4 times we played :P
