The Entrance at Mines International Exhibition and Convention Center (MIECC) |
Sebelum-sebelum ni I tak pernah nak ambik pusing books sale ni sebab selalunya kalau ada warehouse sale atau apa-apa sale yang besar-besar, barang-barang die memang out-dated habis.
Tapi taktaula tahun ni hati macam tebuka untuk tau lebih dan lebih lagi. Baca experience mereka-mereka yang dah pernah pergi ni agak mengujakan...positif aje.
One week before sale, I dah buat list. Masuk website die dan agak terpegun sebab best-best gak buku yang dia offer....bertambahlah semangat nak pergi. Wahhhh seronok-seronok.
I applied for annual leave on the 1st day itself. The day before was the preview passes day.
Sampai-sampai aja...tu dia haihhhh....besaq sungguhhhh. Apa lagi, mulalah diri ini tidak keruan. Padanlah mereka bawak beg baju beroda, troli pasar dan segala jenis beg yang berodalah I nampak. Lesson learned.
Okay tarik nafas panjang-panjang, mulakan dengan bismillah....

Mula-mula I pergi fiction area. Kat situ jer I dah pening, banyak sungguh buku. Tapi I dapat grabbed apa yang I nak. Tu belum pergi children's corner lagi, non-fiction lagi, biography lagi, cooking lagi, motivation lagi.....fuhhhh.
Lepas fiction, I terjah children's corner. Wah sangat teruja lagi. Banyakkkk betul collection dia.
Sambil-sambil pusing dan berpinar biji mata, masih lagi mampu nak recognize kak Farah Rahim, silalah ke blog beliau krupkrup dan pinkgoodness untuk tau lebih lanjut. Yang bestnya 2-3 hari sebelum tu baru start baca blog beliau.
I ngan terhuyung-hayangnya dari jauh....'Kak Farah Rahim'....hahahaha excited. All I can say is, she is a very nice person.
Ni ha lepas dah sauk-sauk masuk beg, time for sorting pulak, kalau tak nanti ter'over' budget. I sat at one corner...nak cari area yang kosong pun susah,semua bersila-silaan... Mula-mula top up energy dulu, baru otak boleh berfikir.
Hasil baham kali pertama. As u can see, not that much eh. It was because I couldn't carry my beg anymore, I have to drag it on the floor because it was too heavy and my energy level has gone down badly plus my mind was all over the places...too much of input.
Azfar's books. |
Mine. I love the recipes in that Italian cook book. |
Mine too. |
Mine also. |
Hasil kena baham kali ke-2.
Sebab musabab ada kali ke-2 adalah kerana buku Vocabulary Power dan Juices & Smoothies itu.
Tapinya
kalau dah ada kat sana, mana mampu nak balik hanya dengan membeli 2
bijikkkk buku. Itu pun I saja bawak beg takde roda, sebabnya kalau bawak
beg roda lagi banyak I angkut...senangkan nak tarik. Jadi kalau beg
yang kena angkat sendiri ni, I akan rasa penat dan tak larat...jadi
terhad la pengambilan buku-buku.
Kalau
ikutkan hati ni, buku architecture yang takde kena-mengena dalam hidup I
ni pun I nak rembat tau...because it is damnnnn cheapppp.
Anyway, I guess all these collections should be able to keep me busy reading for the next 1 year until the next Big Bad Wolf Books Sale. And as for Azfar, there will be no visit to MPH anymore...hehehe unless if you throw tantrums in front of the bookstore.
Okay, a lil bit of calculation here, untuk sedapkan hati,
Total damage for 2x visits = RM 391
Total number of books = 44
Average price for 1 book = RM8.89
Average of number of books a month until the next BBW sale = 4
Average of money spend a month until the next BBW sale = RM32.58
Fuhhhh....cheap..cheap..cheap...investment...investment
Does that means I can go again until it ends on the 23 December????
