went to the world book fair at suntec yesterday. it's the most disappointing book fair that i've been to since... i've started vi sting the book fair annually. the book fair only covered the level 4 exhibition hall. there was an abundance of companies and booths selling children encyclopedias. anxious parents were at sitting at the tables listening to salesmen and saleswomen promoting their set of encyclopedia. however, this anxiety exists in two forms: one would be the typical worry for their young children's future, the other would be the anxiety to get away from the evil clutches of the sales personnel. for me, since i aren't a parent, i could simply walk away with ease, much to the displease of my mum. poor thing for her. these sales personnel still approached her to rope her into listening to their long-winded stories of the pros of their encyclopedia.

one thing i can't understand is that, who (in my family-who were present yesterday) would need the set of encyclopedia? c'mon, i've way past the age of needing the brightly-coloured books with so so many pictures and yet so little words. erjie? no way. does she even look like a primary school kid? yy? maybe, yea, she's the one amongst all of us who might seem to need those books. hahas.

another thing that puzzles me: why is there a need for encyclopedias, when the internet is everything? gosh. perhaps the young kids really need them for they still do not know anything about the internet.

anw, we got home around 6p.m. first time that we got home so early after visiting the book fair. wow. record-breaking. i helped with preparing dinner, much to the pleasure of mummy. hehes. it's been a long time since i've tired to wreck the kitchen. hahas.
dinner was good. stingray, some veg, sardine and soup!
i love home cooked food. omg.

i am so seriously suffering from SLOSS.
i dno why but just seem to enjoy sleeping recently. this is bad. is it exhaustion?

SLOSSing and SLOSSing.
