I don't like malls that much. The book section and the VCD sections are the only parts that I love going to. Otherwise, I'd rather stay outside.

Anyhow, I think my love for books and movies have led me to eBay. I can call myself a shopaholic but I can honestly and proudly say that I don't go about buying just about anything. Well, just about anything that has nothing to do with VCDs and books. Or else, I'm a total goner.

Yesterday, two packages arrived for me. One contained my two Harry Potter books. I'm trying to complete the whole HP series before I actually go about reading them again. I was able to read those books before by borrowing from friends. I never did own one until around a month ago. I have a four more to go before I complete the set yet I still have a lot on my list that I need to cross out before I can say "Success!"

The other package contained two books - Second Child and Striptease - plus one VCD, West Side Story.

Now yesterday was also a day of VCD shopping for me. I put my bids on various VCDs that I am now estimating would play around the amount of a thousand pesos or more. These original VCDs have a range of around 35php to 70php. So just imagine how many VCDs I bought.

I guess that's money well spent. On my end, at least.
