What the...

Great, now my blog can't work...

Zzz, what's wrong with it anyway? My desktop can access my blog but my account in laptop can't. Great, just great. I can't scroll up or down at all.

Library & 19th quote

I'm very upset now and therefore, have the inspiration to write a letter to the National Library Board Singapore. But, the Internet must be playing a trick on me because each time I try to access the www.nlb.com.sg website, the Internet connection would get cut.

No worries though, I wrote a draft on Microsoft Word, once I got the chance to send the email, I will do so. Looking forward to see what the management would come up with.

"Indeed, the library is now more spacious and has more shelves, particularly in the adult fiction section. However, what is the use of these shelves when they are barely occupied? The lack of books is one big issue the management must look into." Sounds good? This is just one part of my letter.

Is the problem due to it being newly opened? But, it had already been weeks since it opened, so unless the staff's effectiveness is that slow in sorting the books, there should be no reason for this. Is the problem due to the books being on loan? If it is, then the management should considered acquiring more of these popular books. I've raise these issues in my email.

No use of the library being so new and nice with comfy chairs and good environment when the most important aspect of a library is missing.

Don't tell me I've got to "reserve" every book I want. Like I said before, if I want a book that badly, I'll gladly go and buy it myself. But, in this circumstance, it is different. I would just read the books one time and that's it. Waste of money and resources...

Gah, really, really angry. I gave the library a chance to work on it and yet nothing seem to happen. Even worse, the authors whom I borrowed books from in the 1st time were all gone.

19th quote:
"Enough for forever" ~Twilight, pg 498, paperback

PS: Another realisation. I think I'll put up quotes from Twilight book only until 18th Dec, then I'll continue to put up quotes from New Moon, Eclipse and Breaking Dawn, if any. There are way too many beautiful quotes from Twilight itself. I think, Twilight is the book with the most number of quotable quotes.
