A New Addiction


After Sputnik Sweetheart comes Norwegian Wood, a gift from H. And while Sputnik Sweetheart will always remind me of someone else, it's good to know I read By the River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept in between the two Murakamis.

In my despair and loneliness, it's kinda surprising that I turn to literature for comfort and solace. What's more surprising is the fact that I find comfort in reading these books now. Well, I also watch Deathnote's complete animated collections and Six Feet Under, so go figure how I am getting by.

I’m so happy today. I feel like, say, a kid laden with gifts on Christmas morning. And this is simply because my books are here!!! Yes, the books I ordered online from the ever-reliable National Bookstore arrived this afternoon via the Aboitiz’s 2Go Day 1 Package service. There are now four additional books to my oversized bookshelves, not counting the two I asked Inez to purchase over the weekend and the one I bought from eBay. Hahaha.
