A bookworm..again

I can still remember that when I was a child and my family would go to a shopping mall, I would just tell my mother to just leave me in the National Bookstore or Goodwill Bookstore while they do their toy shopping with my siblings.

When I was in grade school, I was a big fan of Sweet Valley (all series - Kids, Twins, High, University, Saga, etc), Nancy Drew, Hardy Boys, Choose your own adventure, Goosebumps and many other pocketbooks. Sometimes, I would also sneak some of my Tita's tagalog pocketbooks (oh yes, remember the novels by Hilda Olvidado? At the age of 6, I already know her...hahaha!). And I can still remember that I would spend all day and night (there were also times that I would just put flashlight on and stay up until 3am just to finish my pocketbook - my father would usually scold me in doing that) reading.

When I reached the mid-high school days, I was diverted to some other hobbies. I stopped from being a bookworm. But I still read...but not as intense as before.

But right now, I was surprised that I'm suddenly coming back to my old senses. I just finished 2 pocketbooks - both in 1 seating. I'm again addicted to bookstores... I am surprised to choose Barnes & Noble and Borders over the other boutiques when we walk into the malls. Randy is also surprised to see me stay up until midnight reading a book. He has never seen me like this before.

Oh god. I'm again a bookworm. Right at this moment. (Raising eyeglasses)
