Have you tried playing netball with some soccer and basketball style involved? It was funny and tiring when I played with my fellow teachers today. Killed myself more by going to gym thereafter.

End up buying another 3 books today. Bought a total of 6 books within a month from Kinokuniya (gosh! gosh! gosh! but i feeling rather happy with the purchase). Let's hope I have the time to indulge in them soon. Here are the titles:-
1. Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince ( waited a year to buy this one cos i'm collecting all the adult edition of harry potter and finally, after a year, I added the 6th one to my collection)

2. Sophie's World (great introduction to philosophy. Always wanted to own one since varsity and never seemed to be able to complete it till today)

3. Final Notes from a great Island (Simple to read book when you get to laugh at yourself from the perspective of an angmoh. Decided to buy this one since it's Neil Humphreys's last book on this tropical isle before he departs)

4. the Kite Runner ( great review even from sis. Must find time to read)

5. Flowers for Algernon (A classic novel that inspired academy award moving Charly about how scientists increase the intelligence of Charlie who is of an unusually low IQ to one that surpassed even the scientists before he deteriorates.. real interesting when I 'scan' it on my MRT ride home)

6. Happiness Now (sometimes, you just need to read some books by Andrew Matthews and made u ponder further and appreciate all the minor, mini things in life).

So now, i have to go and find more space to store my books and really really find time to indulge in them. getting busier for sure
