Last year around the holidays I was stuck between two major purchases.  Technically I was not buying it but I had to choose between the two.  My mom told me that I could only have two major gifts on my Christmas list; but I wanted a new iPod and an iPhone 4 and a North Face jacket, all around two hundred dollars brand new.  I knew that I was asking for a lot, but as you get older you realize that certain things do not matter as much as they did in the past.  I second guessed my choices and looked to my mom for help.  I asked her for her opinion, in a way I was judging her bluff, seeing if I really had to choose.  She told me that I had better pick wisely and not to ask for too much or I would be disappointed.  I used the information I found on the internet to find retail prices and see which stores had the best prices or offered coupons.  I used this to better my chances of getting all three or even two.

The library is one of my favorite places to be, but not because of the books. My favorite part of the library would be the lounge chairs.  I enjoy this because it gives you a chance to look over the book before you buy or rent it. The chairs are a great way to relax and clear your mind in a quit environment.  Another one of my favorite things about the library would be the silence.  Most people understand that it’s a place of whispers and subtle movements.  This makes it a great place to work.  My least favorite part of the library would be how hard it is to find a specific book.  Most book stores have the sections labeled by genre but the library is absolutely confusing to me.  I am completely confused about the dewy decimal system.  Also how to find any type of book without assistance.
