Bargain Book Hunt and a Picanto

Hello. My name is Alex and I'm a bargain book hunter.

Hahahaha. I was immitating Dory in the movie Nemo while she stands on a podium and says to a group of sharks and clown fish that she'd never eaten fish before. ;)

Seriously, I am a bargain book hunter. It's a challenge for me to dig into bargain books trying to look for a second hand novel that would finally complete a selection. I have successfully completed a number of sets and to name a few:
  • The First and Second Chronicles of Thomas Covenant the Unbeliever
  • The Wheel of Time
  • The Sword of Truth


This car is NOT yellow! Posted by Picasa

So during lunch break, me and Rufus went to Makati Cinema Square to look for books. So while parking, a picanto passed us by. Luckily, I had my phone with me when the it turned around in the parking lot and I was able to take a snap shot.

I will tell you that I don't like the color but I will tell you that the car looked elegant with it.

Oh, before I forgot, I found a really worn copy of The Shipping News by Annie Proulx which won the Pulitzer Prize. I got it for 60Php.

Some changes

Ok so It's been a while since I actually posted something here and with the current blog comment spamming going on, I had to fix it, so I'm posting to inform you guys that comments will require some simple authentication from now on.

Other than that, my Picanto is still doing fine, going to be a year old next month. I'll make sure I post pictures soon and tweak the blog in the coming days.
