Good things come to those who wait... sometimes

I'm not THAT optimistic, hence must add the word "sometimes" to the title. Anyway, there is this book - For One More Day by Mitch Albom that I had been eyeing since the 1st time I saw in bookstore. However, the only available version was the hardcover ones, hence translated to rather pricey for the book. Despite wanted to buy the book yet I'm not all that into paying so much simply because of the hard cover. So... I left it there, in the bookstore.

Sometimes... I guess good things come to those who wait. Yesterday, over The Star newspaper under the Reading section, there was a coupon giving 50% discount to purchase certain titles in Kinokuniya (only valid yesterday & today). Grin. I hardly buy newspaper these days as I dont really fancy keeping stacks and stacks of old newspaper especially when everytime I bring it down, the van which collects old newspaper would have been far far away. So I resolve to reading newspaper online. Anyway, I was to wait for the bus to come at 12.30 pm to travel back to KL from Penang, so I bought a copy of Sunday Star.

Happily, I went to grab a copy of "For One More Day" this afternoon and surprise, surprise... the paperback version is also out (it may have been out for quite sometime but I have not been to bookstore for awhile). Hence with the 50% on the paperback version, it is very much affordable :)

Well... I guess, good things come to those who wait... sometimes :)
