sounds great
i really, really want to get my hands on a copy of The God in Flight by Laura Argiri
methinks it's the hard-to-get factor xP
oh, and before i forget, i want to relay this sort of funny yet frustrating encounter with a classmate (we will tag this person as CM) when i brought my kindle with me to school yesterday:
me: *reading on kindle*
CM: *sees me* *asks me where i bought it*
me: on amazon. you can hardly find anyone selling them here
CM: Oh...do you download your books or buy them? (note: here in our country, to "download" means to get it from the darknet)
me: um...no, i buy my books or borrow them or get them for free in giveaways and contests and such. well, it depends on what types of books you want to read.
CM: how about harry potter?
me: i don't think there's a legal ebook copy of that yet. but it's harry potter. our library has it. why not just borrow there?
CM: oh well...
it's heavy
me: *speechless* *glances at the 7 books in my book bag that i took out from the library earlier*
take note that we pay library fees as part of our miscellaneous fees every term. why this person is not taking advantage of that, i do not know @_@
