I went to Pavilion with my mother today after lunch. She had an appointment, so while I waited for her two-hour appointment to finish, I went soaring the Times bookstore, going on a book-hunt after like two months, three months...? Anyway, yeah, I found two books that I added into my To Buy list. Yes, I actually have a To Buy list, in my mind that is.

I spent about an hour and a half in the bookstore, reading the first few pages of The Guardian written by Nicholas Sparks, and The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger. I was debating with myself on which book to get, because both of them are so interesting, and in the end my mother paid those two books as a gift for my getting 7A's in PMR. Hehe.

After going to Times, I went to Watsons to buy some toiletries. In the end I bought a small bottle of lotion. Hehe.

And then my mother's appointment ended, and she met me at Watsons. She bought some toiletries of her own, and then we went to Toast Box and bought some toast with milk tea and half-boiled eggs for teatime. I paid for both of our meals, my treat! I was really enjoying my French toast and I could see that my mother was really enjoying her butter kaya toast :)

After that we went back to Times after I told her about the two books I mentioned earlier. We spent like another hour there, my mother browsed some home-economy books while I was browsing the 3-for-2 and the new arrivals sections. In the end, most of the books I saw there caught my attention, that I jotted down the names of the authors in my phone so that I can Google them later and read the readers' reviews and comments. Because, really, I hate buying books that are so trashy and rubbish, like this one book my dad bought for me -- I chose the book, he just paid, hehe -- the title is "Barefoot" by Elin something. I couldn't even finish the book because it was so, SO boring! I just didn't get what the novel was about, there was no climax, the plot was just so dull and the way the author wrote was just so boring and unmoving. After reading three-quarters of that book, I finally gave up. Haha.

And then my mother and I went home. I was tired from the book-hunt, and I was relieved to be home. The time spent with my mother? Priceless :)

Nowadays I've been feeling pretty family-sick. As in, I always feel this constant need of being with my family as much as possible. Especially with my parents. Nowadays I just feel so needy of them, but not in the sense of money and all. I just needed to be around them because I can't stand being by myself nowadays. As I would call it, Family Therapy. Nothing greets you better after a long day of working -- or in my case, schooling and studying -- than submerging yourself in a Family Therapy. Hehe. This might sound cliche, but I already miss my family even when I'm with them x)

Anyway, I've got school tomorrow. Not looking forward to it, na'uh. I call my Mondays a "Bitch-ful Day" because the subjects I have on Mondays all start with the letter B; BM, BI, Biology, and another bitch-ful subject, PJK. I don't mind biology, actually, I like learning it. I just hate BM and BI and PJK. Blergh. And plus my PJK teacher always spits when she talks. Sorry, but really! She usually leans against my table because I sit in the front row, and when she talks I can see her spitballs splashing on my table, my books...me. Mmm, nothing makes your day like being hit by someone else's saliva -.-"

I hate Mondays. It's true. I really hate Mondays.
