!I’m beginning to build another library here in Manila just like back in my hometown in Zamboanga. Good thing I don’t like the feeling bringing loads of stuff going home to my aunt’s house in Marikina. I still don’t like the idea having many stuffs laying around the house. Last night, I can’t help it to buy the book about emergency medicine at Book Sale! This curiosity kills my pocket and I’m still planning to buy dictionaries (english, medical, nursing, japanese, latin, arabic, sign languages, french, and others) , nursing reviewers, nclex reviewers, emt books, emergency medicine books, literatures and so on -the list go on. I’m planning to buy kindle or e-book reader at cd-r king. I always get asked this question. (You can substitute “Kindle” with “Nook” or any other e-book reader.) “You read so much, you have so many books; doesn’t it make more sense to have all of them on one gadget?” I understand the practicality, but personally (and I’d like to stress that), it just doesn’t appeal to me. Here’s why: I like the smell of books. There are few things more gratifying to me than opening a new book and breathing that new-book scent in. (Or opening an old book and getting a whiff of that amazing old book smell.) It’s magical. One of the aforementioned few-things-more-gratifying-than-the-smell-of-the-pages is looking at my overstacked bookshelves and marveling to myself that I’ve read them all, atleast once. That, through reading, I’ve lived these hundreds of lives that I would not have experienced otherwise. For those of us with neither the permission nor the funding to go out and travel and have adventures, books are the closest we’ll ever come.
A few days ago, I decided to start the excrutiating task of arranging my books in a luggage. This is due to the fact that I want to totally clean our room and organize my things (as well as remove stuff I don’t put to use). So far, I have seen a lot of medical books, and I realized there are tons more that I have to bring back home to Zamboanga. Yes, I have many books. I actually have so many books, my bedroom looks like a bookstore with a bed.And yes, I have been postponing this task of arranging for quite sometime now, but since I don’t want to face this task again there is nothing else to do at home, I decided to “act” now and “start” things.
I’m going home anytime soon and I don’t want to see my parents’ shocking face - again. saying “anak dito ba lahat napunta ang sweldo mo?”
About
My name is Sara, I'm twenty FOUR years old, thirteen at heart. I am a easy going person with a very imaginative mind. I'm your Cowgirl-next-girl.This site's sole purpose is to serve as a time capsule of the digital age; something which I can look back on in the years to come. I guess this is where it goes from now on. Regardless of time, date, or abundance, I'll be uploading photographs here for you guys to see. A photo-dump of sorts, maybe. Hahaha!
I’m really not a real photographer anyway. I love taking and uploading pretty photos and as ironic as it may seem, this is my way of keeping my life as private as possible. This is ME with no strings attached.
