Borders

The book that I picked up from Borders today is not a sales item, but something I know will be helpful to me. Browsing through the "three for two" I can't help, making a mental "to buy list", yet another voice in me from my list and asked, "buy and read this books... for what?"

I'm such a task oriented and purpose driven person that, it's almost impossible for me to do something without. When it comes to books, I'm often, picky. I read books that is helpful to me, truth is, I seldom read for the sake of reading. Hence perhaps, I have read more non fiction than fictions. (excluding the lit text that is).

In a nutshell, I buy things to serve a function. But, me being me, with all my paradox and everything often up end in 2 results...

1] I often think through before I make my purchases, weighing every possible pro and cons, and striving to the best to make the most economical decision. (note that economical dun imply cheap, perhaps a purchase with more pros than cons). However, I still make SILLY purchases. Yes. The key and padlock necklace. But, heys I love it ok.

2] As much as I don't have that obession to embrace fiction, I do have my once in a while cravings, for "the silly witty meaningless" whatnots. I buy implusively as my heart calls.

In conclusion, before the "3for2" offers ends, I will grab a few copies of fictions from Borders. A bonus would be that, their covers are OH SO PRETTY.

I'm seriously a sucker for sale.
