i went to gateway mall with my cousin almi and her sweetie allan after our choir practice this morning. we decided to have lunch there - as we were all quite famished after all the vocalization and singing rounds of christmas carols Ü and so, by the time practice ended at 12 noon, the three of us went on our way to cubao.
thankfully, there were lots of parking spaces available. being the starving creatures that we were, we postponed the window shopping and headed to the food express. hmm. too many people eating there.. so we decided to eat at max's instead.
lunch was great.. though admittedly, i wasn't really able to eat that much. hmm. dunno why, but latley my appetite for eating hasn't really been that good. haha. almi and allan, on the other hand, stuffed themselves 'til they couldn't eat any more :D hehehe. it was fun watching them ahehehe :p
after lunch, allan went on home. that left almi and me to look around gateway mall for a bit. we dropped by watson's to buy some girly stuff.. and then proceeded to fully booked (my all-time favorite stopover place at gateway).
i love bookstores. i love being around books. especially those hard-to-find titles and those written by not-so-famous authors. saw a paperback copy of "jonathan strange & mr norell" that i really wanted to buy (P599 only!). too bad i didn't have the budget for it yet :( i also saw the "myst" series there - which intrigued me, as i've played the pc game during my high school days. then there's this book, "eats leaves and shoots" - and it interested me 'coz.. well.. i dunno. it just did, hehe Ü there were also a bunch of inspirational books there (by philip yancey, rick warren, warren wiersbe and others) that i would have wanted to read, if i had money to spare. not to mention all those math/science titles that are so hard to find at other bookstores. *sigh* how i wish i owned a bookstore.. :D
anyway, it's been a good (satur)day today Ü i guess i'll be reserving my weekends for unwinding and for going out with friends. life is good.. Ü
