So...no End Of The World

It's less than two hours till the end of the 21th of December 2012 and yet I am still here,writing this post. All I can say is, I sure didn't see any meteor showering from the skies or cracking open of the earth. Seems like the so-called Doomsday scenario is something that would make Ebenezer Scrooge say "Bah! Humbug!". (For those out there who never heard of this expression, read Charles Dickens' 'A Christmas Carol' - perfect for this time of the year.) Anyway, Christmas's only a few days away and I haven't started my Christmas gift shopping yet (To those who know me personally, yes, I do buy gifts for others, so stop saying that I am stingy. ), so I plan to do it tomorrow with some of my extra cash. On a side note, anyone (from Malaysia, sorry) want a free gift? Tell you what,if you can guess the exact price that I paid for the books during the Big  Bad Wolf Book Sale in this picture in ONE guess, I will give you a free 'The Hunger Games' novel, in pristine condition. Interested? Comment below and take a wild guess!

P.S. This competition also takes place on my Facebook, so if you are correct BUT late, you would not get the prize. Hey, it's free, so no losses.
