Saying goodbye to past disappointments

Wishing to be lost in words and be transported to another world...

First time my student baked me a cake! I almost cried!

A day with Penguin

my heart skips a beat when I looked through the glass and saw rows and rows of books lining the wall. Really. Like seriously, sub consciously, I said "Wah!"

it's a personal collection from the owners of Books Actually, around a thousand books. There was a guided tour explaining the histories of books from each panel. I saw books from my childhood (The Chrysalides is one of them) and lots of serious fiction.  The oldest book is from 1935 and there's books from different genre and collectible series. It's simply amazing. I can't imagine collecting books, because if I start, I would never stop and I can't, because I have no space. Unless I rent a storage space to keep all my books!

I can't wait to get my house and built a nice little house for my books. heh.

Ron and I were discussing which books that we are likely to collect. Books that we liked. We were tied between Alice in Wonderland and The secret garden. I like both. And I think I have 3 books of AIW (just because) and 1 TSG. I love beautiful covers and illustrations. So which title should  I concentrate on? And the owners of BA have about 20 books each of Animal Farm and books by an author I can't seems to remember right now.

Anyhow, I'm hunting for books by Enid Blyton too.

The Little Bookshop @ East Coast

Hanging out at the Little Bookshop with hubby is a relaxing thing to do. Sitting with a glass of mango smoothies and a vanilla milkshake and chilling out with books around us, we basked in the sunshine of East Coast.








It is recommended to join the membership to enjoy the full privileges but since we are Westerner/ central people,it doesn't make much sense for us to get the membership and spend 45mins to an hr traveling there just to chill!

Will drop by if I'm around the vicinity.

Cats in a bookshop! How perfect is this?

Books Actually & Forty Hands

Both are at Yong Siak St, nestled in quiet shop houses. 

Read- A year of mornings: 3191 Miles Apart

A photography book between 2 person living 3191 miles away. These pictures ate taken in the morning, just that one moment.

I wished I can publish a book of cats photography or food or simple sightings.

Dreamy and reflective and pensive. Sometimes lonely and sad.
Sometimes peaceful and looking ahead.
