Decode


富家不用买良田,书中自有千钟粟。
安居不用架高楼,书中自有黄金屋。
娶妻莫恨无良媒,书中自有颜如玉。
出门莫恨无人随,书中车马多如簇。
男儿欲遂平生志,六经勤向窗前读。

赵恒

If there is a library like that in Singapore, bookworm would be my middle name. I love
going to libraries, time always seems to come to a standstill when i am in there. The
tranquility, the focus of students studying, the flipping of the newspapers and the crisp
sound of the turning of the book pages are alluring. It is always an enchantment.

I looked forward to my parents bringing me to the library on weekends since young. I
never felt compelled to read, not once. I would spend a whole day on the library floor
reading book after book, with my imagination captured. I do not have this luxury of time
nowadays but well, i still adore pretty libraries, nice librarians and awesome books.

you are purely fictional.
