Second Visit to MPH Book Fair

It was a usual boring Tuesday holiday afternoon, surfing the net, watching dramas, comedies (laughing alone mentally) and reality shows as usual...terrorizing facebook with pictures...and blogging halfway, i received a message from Monica asking me whether i want to go to the MPH Bookfair again in PJ with Stephanie...the last time we went was last October...same place again

I immediately said yes...i was already rotting at home, gotta do something else...going out means spending money...LOL, so we left home at 2pm...we got lost around the PJ area, making turns here and there but we found the place with the help of the map from The Star...

Time given for Book Shopping: 1 hour...so i started browsing...the books this time is not so interesting compared to last time...i walked the whole warehouse and couldn't find any interesting book until i found this in a cornerSabrina The Teenage Witch: Ten Little Witches, i've never seen this title in TARC library before, and it was a special edition publication...i grabbed it immediately...and it only cost RM3!

After warming up with the 1st book, i walked another round, i saw this aunty holding a recipe book that i gotta have...she told her husband it was the last copy...and i looked around ...she took the last copy...i saw this man kept on looking at the aunty hand wanting to ask her to let him to have a look at the book...so i was like...not a single chance i will get it...so i walk away...so i walked the recipe books corner another round...some books are displayed on a table while some a arranged in a box messily...

After looking at the dictionaries section, i went back to the recipes section and tried looking for that recipe book again...and i found it...i'm not sure whether that aunty put it back or what...i found it in a box...The Smoothies Bible by Pat Crocker...this book offers fruit, herb, vegetable, dairy, and hot and frozen smoothies recipes...quite many smoothies...the recipes are in the second half of the book, the first half of the books introduces the ingredieants details...very detailed...@@, health conditions, you can find all kinds of health conditions in this section...even those i didn't expect to find...and suggestions on which smoothy to drink if you're having those problem...

Some health conditions i saw was infertility for male and female...LOL, skin conditions...acne, cancer prevention, menopause @@ and many many more...the book is RM20

I saw another similar book next to the smoothies bible, The Blender Bible which is also RM20..It's from the same publisher, the difference is that this whole book is only recipes...which is good too...more recipes...appetizers, salad dressings, sauces, soups, desserts, sweet sauces, smoothies, cocktails, and baby food, curry, breakfast, lunch and dinner recipes...there's more than 500 recipes in this book...i wanted to take this book but Monica suggested i took the other one...i ended up buying both...grer grer grer

After settling down with 3 books, i wanted the last book that i saw in the newspaper. it was at the entrance and i didn't notice it...because it was in a box! The Children of Hurin by J.R.R. TolkienSince Monica gave me the "voucher" i got it at RM15, it's RM19 without the voucher...i read the first paragraph of the introduction in the car and stopped!!! OMG!!! I need a dictionary when i'm reading this book...there's more than 5 bombarstick words that i don't understand in the first paragraph already, i read other parts of the book, it's more simple in the middle...the sentences are simple...but not simple...it's like embeded with literature codes...LOL

Do you understand "OF MIM THE DWARF"...i think it means The Dwarf of Mim...it's like written in ancient english language

Walking around the book fair i noticed some of the books that i bought during the last MPH fair...The Chronicles of Narnia...i bought it for RM15 last time and it cost RM18 now...LOL, there's are other books which also seemed more expensive...eg, Charmed series...from RM3 to RM12...WTH, did they forget to change the price tag??? So after an hour of book shopping, three of us went to TARC to meet Ms. Chan, our course supervisor...Stephanie needed to print something and let her sign some letter, and Monica tried getting POP "guidelines" from her...and i saw Mr Julius marking the final exam papers in the office...and he made fun of me again...i couldn't even see him and he already called me...grer grer grer...

After spending some time at block V, the sky was getting darker and it's almost 6pm...i suggested we better leave before 6pm...i freaked out when the guard made weird noises in block V, and there's no class going on at all...just 3 people in the office and 3 of us...i told Monica let's leave before we see things that we are not suppose to see...
