The Mark of Zorro

Mar 23, 2017 18:24

I should log in here more often for updates. My last post was around 2 weeks ago.
I write in a physical journal but I think writing here is also important since I've had this journal for a long time now.

Last night, I couldn't sleep well. I went to bed at around 2 o'clock, tossed and turned until finally slept after an hour. In the morning, at 6 or 6:30 I heard those annoying energetic noises of kids from the school near us. I think they were doing light exercise or something cause I heard lots of counting and repeating. Then, I went into that status where you sleep and hear what's around you in the same time. I don't know how's that but it is what happened. Had to wake up early at 10 since I'll go with my sister to visit her friend and decided to start the laundry from the morning.

March 21 was mother's day here. We celebrated by having a fight with mom (again) for an hour. Then, made some tea and snacks and chill-laxed. Very typical. I don't know why whenever there's an important event or place to go we must yell and shout. It's normal though, we can go like this for a long time then (like always) after 5 mintues, everything cools down and we act like nothing happened. It just continues inside of us *sigh*





Last Saturday, we went to the book fair at the end - which was a big mistake. I was so looking forward to the guest of honor this year. Prepared myself, charged my camera's bettary and removed old photos to make space for new ones and at the end...there was no show for the last day! I was so disappointed. At least, they could've mentioned that in their site/page so we had came earlier. I saw some videos from those who went there the other day ... there were music, dance, food and other cultural stuff that never happened before. What a shame I missed all of that. I didn't buy anything beside these 3 books. Supernatural for Ahmad Tawfiq.




A girl told us the prices are high this year and I was shocked to know she was right. Usually, books are sold with lower price at the fair but this time everything was high. I wanted to buy Herlock Holmes and Arsene Lupin but they were double the price from last year. So, I decided that I won't take anything more. I actually have some of them as e-books but reading from a physical one has its own joy. These 3 bookmarks here are from Jamlon store/section, went there to get the discount code card to buy from their site but since we were at the end, there were none. Before going back home, had Little Caesars for the first time and totally loved it.



Just finished this yesterday and it ended in my favorite books for March. The first Zorro I saw was in the anime (Kaiketsu Zorro) I never knew about the book. When I was signing up in goodreads, this book was recommended for me. After finishing the one before this, I was looking what to read next and found this was in my to-read list. I couldn't stop until I was at the very end. Swordsman, old times, secret identity and lots of romance too. It made me love Don Diego even more. (By the way, I had a crush on him when I was little! Lmao! The stupidity of teenage!!!) Now that I read the original story, I'll go and re-watch the anime and see some of its movies.
