Bookworm Short Stories
Posted at 11:03.45 and filed under Visual Orgy, A Simpler Life
I was slacking at Pacific Coffee @ marina yesterday, they had this shelf of donated books which are mainly children\’s stuff, like enid blyton, Beano Annual, and about 10 bookworm books.
I could still remember the day when bookworm came to pei hwa when i was primary one to promote their books. If u subscribe, u would get 2 books a month - 1 bookworm short stories and another non-fiction book of theirs. The best part, @ least it seemed that way back then was that if u subscribe for 1 yr, u get a bookworm club membership that comes with a gold membership card that also works as discount card in many places.
I read bookworm throughout my primary sch days, got so bad that i would wait for the day when they send me the books each mth, and promptly finish both of them within an hour. Wait 30 days for 1 hr of enjoyment. 6 years of bookworm, more than 60 short stories books and roughly the same number of non-fiction books.. Is this hooked or wat?


wah u v old school leh. ah pek always like to reminisce. hehe. i never subscribe to bookworm, prefer enid blyton, but yah, i love popping the plastic thing! (wat’s it called ah?)
