Book-crazy

I had a lecturer who once said he always gets really excited when he enters a bookstore. I still recall that when I first heard him say that, I thought he was a bit of a weirdo (and subsequently didn't bother to pay much attention to his lectures).

But now, I think I feel the same way as him. haha!

In 2 days, I bought 10 books from Popular and Borders. In fact, since the start of the year, I have already bought more than 30 books (maybe like 95% non-fiction)!

And yes you probably guessed it, I haven't read all of them. Actually I think I've only read 2-3 out of those 30.

I'm not sure if it's just me, but I usually do not finish reading books. While there are a few that I do read in their own entirety, almost every book does not attract me long enough to let it run its course.

When I have my own house in the future, I will have a huge book cabinet/shelf that will fill up an entire wall.

About my getaway, I've started talking to people for ideas and their experiences. And I also bought 2 Lonely Planets, and 2 Rough Guides (though its unlikely I will finish reading them).

Thanks for the suggestions everyone!
I will let you know when I take the plunge.
