Today is St George's Day :3 Also called on spain:
"La Diada de Sant Jordi, also known as el dia de la rosa (The Day of the Rose) or el dia del llibre (The Day of the Book) is a Catalan holiday celebrated on April 23 similar to St. Valentine's Day with some unique twists that show the ancient practice of this day. The main event is the exchange of gifts between sweethearts, loved ones and respected ones. Historically, men gave women roses, and women gave men a book to celebrate the occasion—"a rose for love and a book forever." In modern times, the mutual exchange of books is customary."
^__^ yay books! My mom didny' had to work this morning so we went to Barcelona to enjoy the weather and visit La Rambla (it's a street) were a lot of stands of roses and makeshift bookstalls were set up.
I finally managed to find the Good Omen's book, it's was really hard because it's a very old book and I had to go to an specific store to find it but now is mine mine mine >3 *covets*
Annnnd I'm officially reading (and in love with) D-grayman. :D
I blame you. This *points to the post* it's you fault! *points to screen*
You know who you are.
