KisenoSky on Opera

My yesterday afternoon break menu. Juice and book.

It's pineapple juice with a lot of milk, some coffee, and blueberry syrup instead of sugar. It tasted weird but since Hei-niisan would get mad if I threw it away, so I should drink it. Yuck!

And the book is The Perfume Zodiac by John Oakes, a book I bought in UK 8 years ago for £8.99. Want to know why I bought it while I was still 9 years old? It was a so stupid story.

I was hang out with my family in London after watching a movie. The title was East Is East or something like that. I didn't understand anything about the movie since my English was so poor but thet there was a woman named Ella. That's all! The only one of us who understood the movie was Dad.

Then we went to a bookstore. I was really amazed when I saw Dad looked for English books. He looked so cool because he knew English. I envied him. I wanted to be as cool as him. When I found The Perfume Zodiac, I was so interested. When I was a child, I always got interested to anything related to zodiac and fortune telling. It was silly!

I had some money I got from Dad before going to London and I bought the book at once without thinking back. My little sister then asked me, "Vous pouvez lire? (You can read it?)" And I said, "Oui." Yes I can read it, but I can't understand the meaning... Hahaha... And I was so proud because my sister thought I was cool.

Although it has been 8 years, I haven't finished the book yet. I think it's more suitable for Mom...
