like clockwork, the hands move.

i got slightly lost after making a wrong turn but i knew my way around man. instincts. kinda figured my way around. all those years in the passenger seat and it was put to good use.

tried getting to amcorp mall cause i wanted to check out the moving-out sale at bookXcess. first of all, who goes to amcorp mall and why? car park was filled and i see people moving in and out of the area but really, what do they do there?! to shop?! shop for what?! eat?! eat what?! mcdonalds?! starbucks?! there was a "flea market"/"bazaar" whatever fancy term they're calling it these days but the things on sale were nothing to shout about. i knew what i was there for. to buy cheap books. but that was it. otherwise, i wouldn't say in a conversation with my friends "hey, let's go to amcorp mall!" okay enough of mall bashing wtf.

my life is now complete. i have the full set of meg cabot princess diaries series except for the first book cause i watched the movie and thought to myself "heh, i'll just get the second book". and thus began my love relationship with meg cabot and her words. the latest and final princess diaries book costs a bomb in regular bookstores. i think it was rm49.90 +_____+ rip-off! but i got it for rm17.90 \0/ victory dance. i could probably get it for rm5 in the next warehouse sale they have but i couldn't wait. plus it was the last book on the shelf. i had to get it before the girl sitting on the stool tries to snatch it away from me.

ohh, she might be sitting on the stool reading some kiddy book but i know what you're thinking! i grabbed the book and held it tight as i browsed the book shelves for other treasures.

sigh, the moving-out sale was only applicable to certain books. none that i was interested in. but the regular priced books were a pretty good deal too. i could buy 2 books for the price of one in regular bookstores. i managed to get 2 meg cabot books. my life is complete :D rm17.90 for a book i would normally have to pay rm35.90 is a damn good deal if you ask me. the warehouse sale is even better. i bought the princess diaries series for only rm5 each! and one of it was a hardcover which was selling for rm17.90 in the store today. nyehehe. i'm a sucker for good deals. there's a writer in the star who writes on fashion every (not every but almost) sunday and she says to "never pay retail" hell yeah!

unfortunately i didn't do my research before going and left out one other book i wanted to get. i only knew the title and not the author's name. go me!

this was the book i wanted. le sigh. i'll go back to amcorp mall one of these days which reminds me of their totally absolutely flawed parking system. one entry point. two exit points. one of the exit points totally blocks the flow of traffic/fist in air. one that causes a major traffic standstill, i'm sure at the back of the line. but i don't go there often so i'm not too worked up about it.

i'm trying my best-est not to read alice in wonderland not alice in THE wonderland reviews. somehow or rather, critics and their reviews make or break the movie for me. i know it but then i can't help myself and i read them. which then influences the way i watch the movie. i need more self-control. so here i am exercising that control. i shall refuse to read reviews from now onwards. i did read the review for up in the air and it was highly recommended! so i'm definitely gonna try and get my hands on that. aiyoo, i can't live with them and i can't live without them. the reviews, i mean. i'm pretty fickle-minded, eh?


wey hey, it's the month of march now which means that the birthdays are now coming in like a snowball rolling down the slope/hill at speeds faster than the speed of sound.
