I live in a colony where, thankfully, people are culturally inclined. Consequently, we have lots of events, activities, programs and what-have-you in our "paadaa"....
So current goings on are a Book Fair, in accordance to the beginning of a new Bengali year.
Now the thing about book fairs are that they are KLPD, as a worthy friend aptly put it!
Point to be noted melaard!!! That abbreviation is not necessarily not my vocab.
Anyways, coming back to the point, books are nice, they are beautiful. They call me. The entice me... Laughing, cuz I cant reach them, due to me meager savings. Ergo, I'm sad. Depressed. more like it.
Boo Hoo.. etc
Some of the damnest best books that India has produced are by Penguin... And I cant afford the penguin.
So here's another inspiration coming your way by yours truly:
Drat the Penguin,
Drat the Penguin.
oye hoye penguin teri manmaani...
Drat the Penguin,
Drat the Penguin.
Sheesh... my life. Hmm

sheesh girl!
u dont have frends who are bookworms or avid readers? i was never allowed to buy books, and wenever i went to a bookstore, i literally wanted to buy the entire rows of shelves. so i did a clever thing, i made frends with ppl who had books and borrowed 'em. now everyone doesnt buy all the books, so the more bookish frends, the more books u can borrow.
and some of my frends have forgotten to take back their origianl arundhati roys' and thrillers from me.
they say "one who lends books is a fool and one who returns the books is a bigger fool" lol! ok i go off topic.
next u can get a library membership.
third, apna local raddiwala has some nice books at times. i bought gandhi's biography and "the inscrutable americans" for 5 bucks each!
u can also go to crossword and they have a section of books with a yellow band saying that buy this book and if u dont like it enough, return it within 15 days in the same condition and get ur money back! my frends do that, buy, read within 15 days and return. free of cost padho! :P
Girl..(sniff..sniff) You have shown a new thread of light in this muddy tunnel. However, although I do incorporate all those tactics afore-mentioned my you.. now I simbly dont have the time..
:(
but thatnks anyways for the shoulder.
cheers Sweety
I really have no aim to be famous at all.
when theres a will theres a way!!!! am a avid book lover and have got 2nd hand books or sumtimes cheap copies from roadside stalls or daryaganj when i cant afford the original editions/prints........it doesnt sound nice but its practical .....

Quality comes at a price :)
ROTFL.. 'dart teh penguin' man, the lines r too funny :-) well, if u r @ b'lore, u culd have taken books from me...
