It's been such a long time since I have been to Kinokuniya... even though I have uni in the city I seem to always lack the enthusiasm to explore a greater part of the city... If you're wondering do I do all day... here's a summary...
Most of the times I would go to uni in the morning... and then attend the lectures... and then most of the times a one hour break... and then me and my uni friends would go to Market City to eat lunch... quite hurriedly though... and then go back to uni to attend the tuts... and then go home... I know that for the greater part of my uni timetables I would definitely have time to explore the city more... but... I guess most of the times I am just dreading to go back home to have some peace of time but other times I am lacking in the enthusiasm department... :P I am such a lazy ass...
But one day in a sunny Thursday afternoon after tutorial... my friend said... she wanted to go to Kinokuniya... and then I thought... hmm... I haven't got anything to do... and if I go home now I would most probably have bludge the whole day... I would glue my eyes to the TV... I would cook dinner and then... go to sleep...
That day I thought what the hey...
So we caught up on some lunch and then off we go... AT THREE IN THE ARVO!! I know it was a bit late but we went anyways... my friend wanted to look for some Japanese beginner language book (coz she's studying jap in TAFE whereas... I can't =_= disappointing...) and we were at the Jap section for quite a while actually... oh... before that we went to a morning glory shop and the badges there are 50 cents each!! COOL! so we bought a couple... alright... back to Kinokuniya... we were looking through the books and then the girl who worked there (she was getting the books off the shelf opposite us) and she's been doing it for a while but we were still there... and so we talked... actually it's more my uni friend and her... coz as you all know... I'm not such a conversational type of person... it was so interesting... she said that she lives overseas most of the times and she went to Japan and Europe... *sigh... which girl wouldn't want to do that? And apparently she was modelling overseas that is how she get to go overseas... and I was kinda thinking... no wonder...
Anyways... we hang around the Jap section for quite a while actually... hahahaha we might as well mistaken the place for a library... hahahaha... not funny... yes... anyways... we also went around to the picture book section (she wanted to buy a pic book that another uni friend got and it was a VERY interesting book called the Red Tree by Shaun Tan...) and anyways... (yes... I know that by the look of things my uni friend is the one who is doing the shopping and indeed it was true... coz I have no actual purpose going there... just tagging along...) I never knew this but Kinokuniya has their very own navigation system... you know... those information computer that you type things into... search engines... that's it... yep...
Well... it was there but not on the picture book section... it's actually on the AUSTRALIAN picture book section which is in completely different section...
Funnily enough we were there for 3 hours which is quite a lot of time but I was kinda wanting to stay there for a bit longer... *sigh The largest bookstore in Sydney... I miss it now... But I know for certain it would be a while before I go back there... A LONG while...
And that is all for today... If you're wondering why the heck am I telling you this... I was just bored today... so I thought... what the hell... Alrighty... I'll just write something when I have something better to say... until next time... catch ya later...
