i haven't been to rockwell in the longest time, but i went last night with my officemates. and... i saw the coolest bookstore in the philippines!!! oh yes, even better than powerbooks, it has titles that i've heard of but not seen. it has variety, the books have better covers (philip pullman's the golden compass was awesome!!! my copy... well... reeks in comparison. :( ).
i also saw a new cover of ella enchanted... with anne hathaway on it!!! freaky! apparently, they've already made it into a movie. so when is it coming out here?! i loved ella enchanted, but i want to see what they did with it in the movie. and will they make gail carson levine's other books into movies, too?
hmmm...
as i was saying: i saw a book of diana wynne jones' there. a title that i haven't even heard of (i think?). it's called the merlin conspiracy. i'll let you know how that goes. i started it already, and i'm wondering if it's a chrestomanci novel cos it's talking about mulitverses and such again.
oh and another surprise for me was when we went to watch the tail end of the admu game the other day, i saw that scholastic (the publishing company) had a book fair there. right at the entrance of the blue eagle gym. wow! i saw that the animorphs were on sale for 30 pesos!!! omg! i bought 5 books. cheap of me. dapat tinodo ko na. who knows when i'll see the fair again?! and guess what? one of the books i bought, it turns out i already have it. :( WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!
that's it for today, i think. gotta go fix my room. hrmph. my parents are on my case about it again.

aren't you going to enable the anyone can post comments option? wala lang. curious lang. :)
blogger's zesting their features up. they have lotsa competition with blurty, LJ, tabulas etc... before they were the only ones in this sort and type of web blog. natatalo na sila. ergo there. ;)

oops.
medyo mali ata yung previous comment ko dito.
i read your past entries before i commented kasi. :) hehe
anyhoo.
page one. although i don't think it's still called page one today. i love that bookstore. there's many more nifty bookstores up in the higher floors of rockwell, although not as diverse a variety and availability like page one though. :D
