Christmas weekend - family gathering & books hunting
My big family spent this Christmas weekend
together at Jakarta.
Why Jakarta?
Because not only my two brothers live there
and they don't go anywhere abroad this year,
same with me, who stuck in work till
New Year time.
*tears*
but also because this weekend is
the last days for many leading bookstore
at Jakarta,
that offering crazy discount.
Gramedia Grand Indonesia 30%,
Kinokuniya 20%,
Aksara 20%
If you know my family history long enough
you will not be surprise to hear
that hunting books during
this discount time like yesterday and today
is like getting our own chosen gift
from Santa.
And these are our family's gift
The pile is looking good,
isn't it?
My favorite found is
"Creative is a verb" by Patti Digh
who wrote "Life is a verb" back then.
I adore her writing.
And her chosen quote to go with her subject
always delight me.
As I always say to myself,
sometimes I look for books,
sometimes they look for me.
Hope you have a good holiday too!
