On weekdays, I’m so absorbed with my work that I tend to overlook small things that need looking after at home, such as the case of 18 books borrowed from the National Library, now 4 days overdue. Tick-tock-tick-tock, the overdue fees are adding up — 10 sen x 18 books x 4 days = RM7.20. Still manageable…
On weekends, it’s the complete opposite. I’m so absorbed with family matters that by the time I get to work on Monday, my mind needs to take a moment or two to switch to work mode.
For now, my desk is inundated with paperwork…but can you blame me if I find myself dreaming of Machu Picchu travel?
The weekend can’t seem to come fast enough.
I wish I could go to Peru!
It is breathtaking, and to Machu Picchu, great!
wow! i actually thought you were really there. ok can i join in your dream instead?
very nice, huh? it would be a welcome change of scenery. literally and figuratively!
I want me some Peru! Enjoy your weekend, Mimi! :)
I don’t blame you, because now I also want to go! LOL!
Oh ya… that library fine is still manageable… By the way, how do you find the National Library? I would like to join as a member but hesitated because I’m not sure if I would be able to find what I want there. Hope you can share your experience! :)
Alice: So far, most of our visits to the National Library are limited to the children’s section, on which I do intend to write a post one of these days. We usually end up having very little time for me to go to the adults’ section, so whenever I go there, I just grab the first 3 books that catch my fancy. So far, I’ve seen quite a varied collection of books there– both for fiction (Stephen King novels, ‘A Thousand Splendid Suns’, ‘Harry Potter’, ‘Nanny Diaries’, etc) and non-fiction (self-help, sewing, cooking, etc).
J: Thanks! I hope you’re enjoying yr weekend, as well :)
