Kinokuniya ♥

This deserves its own post. I'm starting to think that no one reads my blog. But if you have been, then you surely must know I've written about books so, so many times. In all honesty, I don't think I will ever stop writing about it.

I've had this dream for awhile. And yesterday, I had the chance. My Extended Essay (put simply, mini-thesis - if you call 4000 words mini, though -__-) advisor wanted to see me at KLCC. She wanted to check up on my progress. So, I went. Had a lovely time roaming around first before meeting her up. While she corrected and read my paper, I stayed there beside her reading a book. In the midst of the bustling food court, I was there in my own world. After we discussed, she asked me if I had any plans.

I said, "Yes, yes, most definitely I have a plan." Shyly, as if pronouncing the name of my true love, "Kinokuniya." She laughed and replied the same, so we might bump into each other. Then, we went our separate ways.  I stayed back to read her comments on my essay. It was exciting, the wait. At long last, I couldn't stand it anymore so I packed up and headed to my most favourite place on Earth.

It was one of those dreams come true moment. You just feel relieved. Finally, finally. I'm living it. See, I'm a simple person. All I wanted to do was be there, surrounded by books, by people who share the same love. I was content and felt that I couldn't ask for anything more. I had lunch at the cafe, sat there for hours, reading a book I brought from home. Okay, well, I might have asked for more books, since I was eyeing quite a few already but I had to restrain myself. I bought a book already last week! Though, I finished reading that, hahaha.

I guess there, I found my solace. You know? To feel truly that you belong?

I get excited at other bookshops, too. Mind you. But Kino, I don't know. That wondrous place is it, to me, when they say, the first love is always the most memorable. Sigh. Bless that magical spot of mine, the people who are there in search for something - knowledge, entertainment, anything - and keep it safe.

So, that's what I'm grateful for. Kinokuniya will always be a major part of my life! It never gets old :')

Alright then, good day, people! May you find your own Kinokuniya and Melawati, teehee.
Much love, and assalamualaikum, peace be upon youu :D
