Except the gifts my parents give me, I am never lucky while receiving gifts. And I'm not talking about the price value, I even get expensive clothes that are extremely gaudy/garish, lame video games etc. I've lived with it. I thought it couldn't get any worse. Until today...
I reached home just an hour ago. Mom greeted me at the door. I freshened up, & got ready to relax with my laptop. When I saw something lying on the bed. This -

Yes, that's right, a copy of twilight! Not even the one with the 'apple-in-hands' cover but the one with the film poster on it!
A gift from one my mom's friends.
Don't get me wrong. I really like love reading & am a voracious reader. Then why this feeling, you ask? I have too many twilight crazy friends. Some of them were fans early on. The rest 'succumbed' when it all became a craze. That's when I decided I would not read the book. Or watch the movie. (I've been told it's terribly addictive. Like a Mills & Boon novel. Did I mention I can't stand Romance novels?)
And now it sits there. Tempting me. I will resist it. I will not succumb.
