BooksActually

Sorry I have not been blogging but for those who don't know yet,
I have already started work at


BooksActually is the little bookshop that Owen and I use to visit
mainly because we simply loved the atmosphere of the place...
(as you know Andrea is not exactly what you would consider a "book worm")
The quaint nook, in the middle of the night hustle and bustle of busy corporate-serving watering holes and che-che restaurants, which is Club Street, is a gem that specialises in Literature and local writings, as well as handmade stationery & hard-to-find non-fiction.
To be honest, I was quite surprised at how all this started...
I just sent my resume (the one below), after BooksActually owners, Kenny & Karen sent out a Tweet for a new Bookshop Elf
I went down to the shop for an interview
(which included a literature quiz I was not remotely proud of)
To my surprise (and everyone as well)
I got the job!
So now you can find me Mondays to Fridays at the shop Owen and I love to go to!
I am now a Bookshop Elf in the attic floor of this little special shophouse filled with curios...
(or what Karen calls "tchotchkes", a nonsensical word)

A Secret Photo of the attic floor at BooksActually

This is at the Lee Clan Association at Ann Siang
where BooksActually held a book launch recently for
Light on the Lotus Hill

So far I am really enjoying the work
(despite the exhausting hours)
Hope I will continue loving...

I just had to make my bare resume more "attractive"...

My First Be@rbrick


Today I looked at Patrick...
He looked a little under the weather...

I met Greg for more Starbucks in the afternoon...
Knowing my affection of a certain character in Star Trek,
Greg gave me a STAR TREK Be@rbrick from Series 19...
And you might ask....
"Gee Andrea, what are you going to do with a Star Trek Be@rbrick?"

But don't underestimate this little plastic figurine of an anthropomorphic bear...
(who resembles Spock more than Sulu)
He helped me save Patrick from my harmful negligent hands!!!

He finishes up his heroic episode by making me a cup of peppermint tea!
Thanks Greg!

May life bring you another pig in your basket!"

Happy Birthday Dawn

D a w n!!

May you magically acquire VARYING shades of lipsticks and glosses...
May you get all the crazy Hello Kitty stuff your heart desires...
& May God give you the strength to be the other Power Rangers, other than just the Pink one...

For Dawn,
Who we all know affectionately as Prawn.

It is nice to always have you around,
Your company brings much laughter and sound.
So similar are we,
We even share the same habits when we pee.
Helping me make models of wood and cork...
You will always be my favourite - neh neh pok.


xx
Andrea


Happy Birthday Jia!!
