My friend Janice asked us to go with her to Powerbooks in Greenbelt first before going to the Big Dome to watch the UAAP Cheerdance Competition. She was going to buy a book for her friend and since I miss going to Powerbooks, I immediately said yes. OHSI, the company I worked with before I entered the Call Center world, had a partnership with Powerbooks in Pasay Road, Makati. I enjoyed the times that we had to go there to conduct Usability Testing. Whenever I'm at Megamall, I always make it a point to drop by Powerbooks and finish the two books that I've started reading. And when I'm at ATC with Leizl, I always tease her that I'd stay in Powerbooks first since she'd have her cigarette fix. But of course I wouldn't do that and she would not let me. Hehe! I just love going to Powerbooks.
I enjoy reading but I think what I like more is the feeling of being surrounded by books. It gives me a different high. I dunno but sometimes even by just looking at the cover, I'm tempted to pick the book and finish it off. But I'm not really a voracious reader. I don't read all the time. I actually have to convince myself that I don't have enough time to read. The last book I read was "To Kill A Mockingbird" and I finished it the last week of August. It was a good one and instantly became one of my faves. I prefer reading the classics but I also enjoyed the Harry Potter series. Books that have girl power theme are funny and interesting but I don't think those are the books that I'd spend money on. I'm also not into self-help books or into those chicken soup for-what-have-you. I think those are hard-sell, but it's just me. But then again, it's all good. Books will always be a good source of fun and knowledge. I'll always be interested in reading as many books as I can just as long as I have time.
Right now I haven't started on a new book yet. Any suggestion?
