Went to the National Library Board book sale at Singapore Expo with Yunhuey (the Cedar girl :P). I must say we are absolutely lucky. If you have watched the news you would have seen the queue outside, just to get into the hall. That's because there is only a maximum number of 3,000 allowed into the hall each time, and therefore the queue. But yup, we reached there around 3.40pm and surprisingly though there were crowd aplently but no need to queue. We walked straight in and managed to, in midst of all the enthusiastic readers and kiasu mothers, grab 16 books at the price of $32 in a wide array of categories, from trashy love novels to fiction books for Yun Huey to some HTML guide and Malay phrasebook to The Complete Idiot's Guide to Microsoft Excel '97. Thought it'll be pretty useful since 3 out of the 4 modules I'm taking this sem has got something to do with excel. When we left the place, we walked past and saw the queue to get into the hall, and the snake line was the length of 1 whole hall. Phew!

Bought Little Miss Chong a book that is somewhat like the Chicken soup for teenage soul as a birthday pressie. Happy Belated 13th Birthday!
