Trinoma

I went to this mall up in north avenue my brother told me about earlier this month, I only wanted to check out the place and see how they whipped it up to shape because it was new and I used to remember it some years back to be some wide empty lot with construction machines scattered all over the place, I got to remember it so clearly because I used to wait there to catch a ride at midnight after class going to visayas avenue. I had to wait for these jeepneys that yelled something like project 6, though I didn't know where the hell it was and all I had to remember was to go down at this seven eleven which was the only place having lights on after midnight.

Anyway they did a pretty good job with this mall and it was like some grand weekend park with all the people walking around, but I didn't have nothing to shop though, I only wanted to go to this fine bookstore because I was trying to find this woody allen book without feathers, they didn't have the book though they said I could order a copy and pay them half the cost thereon and come back three weeks later for the book. It was too much trouble except if you were really so crazy about the book and besides I remember my old man having getting even back home stacked at his shelves. I'm not such a big fan about woody allen anyway but I think he has a good sense of humor in him.

It was a great bookstore nonetheless because I still got out of the place buying one book, maybe it has something to do with the carpet all over the place, it makes you feel you'd want to walk all over and over and check out more books, I would want to get out fast though if they had already started to bomb malls in manila to kingdom come about two weeks later, it was all over the headlines days ago that a bomb took out this mall glorietta and it could have scared the hell out of me then being inside a mall but anyway this mall probably was too new for these bombermen to blow up, they'd probably get lost themselves on their getaway run after getting their bombs in place because the hallways are very confusing, and it even messes my own sense of direction inside.

Anyway I bought one japanese manga book, its like a thick comic book told over black and white drawings and I bought it because some friend introduced me to this girl over coffee some months back who was working on a thesis about graphic novels, maybe I wanted to go reading another graphic novel or something after talking to her. But the funny thing is that I haven't opened the goddam book because I found out that there were three more volumes after it and maybe I'd find myself hooked to the story and buying the rest soon, though I think I could still sell this book around.
