In the first week of the December of this year 2015, I saw the advertisement of book-Buffet. It would held at Myanmar Book Centre for 3 days. In my experience, book-buffet was quite interesting for book lover. I remembered when I met book-buffet a year ago, it was exciting.<\/p>\n

(I saw people were eager to collect books.)<\/p>\n

I planned to go on the second day with my friend. When we were at the entrance, I saw a lot of people ahead there. There were 3 or 4 tables on which books might be put. I could not see any book, because people crowded around the table, and filled the place. I stood behind them, and looking over their shoulders. I saw many colourful books and comics. I hoped to find my favorites. But most of the comics and books were very old and outdated, some pages were losing, all looked like trash and waste. I felt unhappy to see those happening. Some people there seemed eager to choose among those books. I tried to pick one by one. After collecting about 20 comics, I went to buy a bag for ten thousand kyats at the counter. To my surprised, ten-thousand-kyat bags seemed a little bit smaller (I think the bag I had seen a year ago, were bigger than this! Maybe I am wrong. Let it be.) So, I bought a bag for twenty thousand kyats.<\/p>\n

After putting my collected books inside the bag, it was full in an instant. I went to the counter to stamp the final seal. They said some of my books were mounted over the edge of the bag. They said I should have to go and see their sample bag. Yes, I see \u2013 a sample bag with sample books inside, and they were fully put inside the bag. Oh! Amazing! I would have to do as their sample bag do! They did not allow the bag which were mounted with books over the edge of the bag. So I have to cancel some of my books! It sounded like their rules were changed! Ok! Let it be.<\/p>\n

(We have to do as their sample bag do.)<\/p>\n

My friend did not buy any bag, and said that all the books here were too old. I heard my father told me about books, how rich books in foreign countries. But we are in Burma, we are beggars cannot be choosers. I could not help my hungry for books. I also saw some people gave up and back their home without buying books (I mean, any bag.).<\/p>\n

I returned home with 12 books – old and outdated books – for 20000 kyats. I am decided I will never go to the book-buffet again. Goodbye book-buffet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
