This is like prom for me

The Manila International Book Fair is happening this week, and once again I have to crawl out of my hole, stare awkwardly at the sun, and hoard the books that I can so that I have enough supplies during the long hibernation I engage in while waiting for the next book fair to arrive.

I don't have a wish list of books this year -- I can quite honestly say that I am not experiencing a shortage of books at the moment -- but I will still be on the lookout for little treasures to be found in the Anvil Bargain Bin and the other assorted stalls that will no doubt deprive me of all my hard-earned money once again.

I can not.
