I love Kinokuniya

Met up with an old friend for dinner today. We actually planned to do some serious shopping in the afternoon and this was why I took half day leave today. But.. she has been studying the whole night and hence needed the afternoon to catch up with sleep, which worked quite well for me too since I think taking a nap is an excellent idea. Hence, I actually went home to sleep. I love taking naps in the afternoon.. for some unknown reasons it is just the best time to sleep (well, i am sure someone out there probably have a theory of two regarding this =p). Anyway, we went for Sake Sushi today and the sushi selection is much better than other conveyor belt type sushi restaurant. I think we will go back to try more varieties. After dinner we went to shop around but we mainly stayed in Kinokyniya bookshop. I just absolutely love that bookshop. It has such a wide selection of books and I always have so many that I want to buy.. Borders is not bad too but there are books that just not at borders shelves. As for MPH.. well... you will find those really famous ones only. You see, I am those type of customer that like to browse and buy. Even if i know the author or the book I want.. I will probably ordered it from Amazon if I can't get it off the shelf.

Other than these big/main chain bookshops, there are some such as the Times in Pavillion that has some surprisingly good selection. Found Book 4 (the last book) of the series that TTB is reading at the moment. Well, regardless... Kinokyniya is still my favourite ^_^

Oh, Kinokuniya has some good deals too.. there are quite a few selection of books are on 20% off when you buy another item at full price... the best thing is, this full price item can be a pen for 80cents. I seriously think this is a good bargain!
