Journey, Book, Book Fair



Assalamualaikum and hi!!
Yesterday, i got great opportunity to go Cairo International Book Fair. It was really a nice chance being there. I started my journey at 8 o'clock in the morning. Actually im going on a trip. Thus, I need to ensure for being in meeting places on the right time. And what? it's 6.30am in the morning! It's extremely cold since i can see breath or water vapour coming out from everyone mouth. I admit there is no snow here but what i got to say is, it's really cold! It's like putting myself in the refrigerator for 2hr waiting before I got into the no.4, white minibus.


The bus seat was small and bad.  I nearly got cramped. Since i hate jammed traffic and motion sick person i vomit once. Huh. I'd lost some of my energy and my stomach growled. I need to endure it. After 3 hrs full-of-patience journey, we arrived the place. I was so relieved. We open up our step by Zuhr+Asr prayers and eat nasi goreng and sambal'. Peoples passing nearby look at us with full of enthusiasm. I dont know what they interest for. Are we too obvious picnicing, till there was a man with black coat recording us? Huh. We just ignored them. Whatever!

me in purple white.
Then we began our searching for books. There were canopies with many booths. But mostly with Arabic language book section. After 1 hr walks, we found what we searching for. English Section books with academic and novel numerously sold. Yeah! That awesome! I began to search for a novel that i can read. To tell you the truth, I easily got bored reading the novel and and left it unfinished as I don't like reading and i dont think reading is my hobby. However, I like to challenge myself to read it till the last page like everyone did. So i need to find the novel of my interest. I've got this!


a row of novel. there's still lots.

We walk hours and hours and hours looking for books, novels and others. We saw many peoples with different races. And of course i was really excited when i saw many Malays too. In a while, there was a seller who asked my friend why they only seen malaysian once a year during this fair was held. We thought that this is only time we are having time for this wonderful event. Winter break holiday a.k.a semester break. Yeah. this is the only time we have. So, here it is. I got bumped into my old friend, Aryana Ariffin. Se's so lovely wearing white sweater and long brown skirt and we're having a short chit chat.



The sun was going to set down. We had a meal for dinner at cafe nearby. We choose cafe with a fair price. In contrast, we got food with unreasonable quality. Sigh. We ate, we prayed, have a last walk while seeing old novel with dirt cheap price and  prepared for going back home. And again, im felt hurling around and vomitted in the sick bus, feeling weak. We reached home at  11.30p.m. and i am very tired. That's the end.
