SOON TO OPEN: Biena's Bookstore

Lately, I have been thinking of what I will do with my life (aside from working for ANC, of course). I've thought of pursuing Law which had been my ultimate plan since I was a kid but I figured that out months ago, I'd give law school a chance after my 25th birthday. I've also planned to embark on different causes, I vowed my support to an Anti-Bullying group recently and I also am thinking of going back to teaching unfortunate kids (that is, if my busy schedule will permit me to). I know, I tend to sometimes overestimate my capability and mismanage time. If only... If only I have all the time in the world. But, we can all dream, right? And I dream to add this up on my bucket list...

You see, now that every shop in Quezon City uses brown paper bags, it really is hard to determine what's inside the package. Almost every week, I carry a couple of bags with me back to the office garnering a lot of judging eyes from colleagues and the whole office neighborhood. I really was puzzled at first. I mean, it's not from some "pricey" store or something, but then I realized people might have been mistaken. They must thought I've been carrying a bunch of food! And when Kuya Patrick once blurted, "Grabe naman ang dami mong pagkain!" (Wow! You have a lot of food) my hunch was confirmed.

I'll seriously go broke on books. I can't understand my addiction. I've actually cured it years back, but now, whenever I pass by any bookstore, I must take a look and at least buy one, even the cheapest!

With my deep fascination with the printed word and my utmost desire to be a part of a cause greater than I am... I was inspired to build up a bookstore like what this teen did to build up his College fund. I have entrepreneur genes, and though, I've only been entrepreneurial when I was about five to eight... I think that would suffice.



I will, on the other hand, gather up the proceeds to build up a library adjacent to the shop for the kids I'll be tutoring, other funds will go to school supplies and maintenance.


I really hope to make this possible one day.

I WILL MAKE THIS POSSIBLE SOON.
