Finally..

Early this year, when i just started in my blogging career (haha!! hey its my second job what!!), i posted one post about one particular book that i've been waiting for 9 months now. I looked for it in our local bookstores like MPH, Kinokuniya and even Boarders, and yes..only the hardcover version is available. If i follow my heart like i did last time, i don't really mind spending RM120 for Julie Garwood's books as it worth with the satisfaction i got from reading her book. But i don't know why i don't want to spend my $$ for her new released book, Shadow Music. It's the first time i can wait for the paperback version which is only due to be released sometime this december or maybe next year.

However, since i start ebaying myself this one month...what do you know..si kaDusMama went to search for Shadow Music in ebay and..yipeeeeeee!!!! I found one which is very..very cheap! I bid the hardcover book for $4.25 and just now, i received a msg informing that i won the book i bid!!! hahhahahahaaa!!! Happynya!!!!!!!!!!

I still haven't make my payment yet as i need to re-confirm the postage fee before i can get my book. The last time i checked from the seller (the seller is in US), the shipment cost will be $11.50 (nah lagi mahal dari the book itself). So...$4.25 + $11.50 = RM55! See...i can save some money for this harcover book kan??? I know its not a brand new book, but based from the other buyers comments, all the books from the seller are in a very good condition and that what's important kan???

bah..i just received another 2 msgs that i've won the items i bid recently!! Haha Die lah like this!! If i don't control myself from now on, i will end-up bidding every items i fancy in ebay. I already made 1 payment for 1 top i won last night, and tonight i need to pay another 2 items (actually its for my daughter). Ayoooo..habis lah like!! All blogging money spent in ebay pulak!!! Mau kasi kuat semangat control lah like this!!!!!

*i think in 3 hours from now, i will win another item i bid yesterday lah!!! hahaha

Tag : Page 123, Sentence no.5

I was tagged by Rafiq few days ago to do this different than usual tag. It is not the kind of tag i usually get.. So Let's look at it...

The rules are: 1. Pick up the nearest book. 2. Go to page 123. 3. Find the fifth sentence. 4. Post the next three sentences. 5. Tag five people, and acknowledge who tagged you.
The nearest book i managed to grab is "Shadow Dance" by Julie Garwood. Yeah!! She is my favourite author in the whole wide world. Anyway, the sentence is...
"He would have ignored it, but then he saw the number and changed his mind. Nick was on the line."
Nothing can give a clue what this book is about, right? heheheeeee Nevermind, if you are a hopeless romantic novel reader like me, I'm sure you are going to love this book very much.
Now..tagging time..let see what Kobie and niniejane are reading..
