The Library..

Finally after 5 months since my membership start date, I went to the library to take my first book. The librarian gave me a weird look and asked me with a surprised tone "Now only you are going to take your first book!!!", I shrugged and replied "well.. Yes, was out of town for a couple of months" I lied.. "oh.. ok.. Fine, carry on" came the reply.

Once I entered inside the library, I should say my whole body calmed down, it is an old antique building. Maybe built by the British people. There is this peaceful silence all over the place and I am the only soul surrounded by the old rusted books. Since I am not much of a (Well, not at all a) book reader, I have no idea where to begin. But, I really liked the place and was literally walking through all the racks without even looking at the books, enjoying the silence.

After 15 minutes, the silence broke when my friend came in with a "Hey.. Wassup" greeting. My friend is a total book worm and knows where to get the right book.. After snippet readings here and there, we got the right book and came out to the 'as usual' noisy world.

I am pretty sure, I am never going to finish the book within 10 days, but I am sure that I will be going to the library again :)
