a serious uncle

认真
Went to bind my project at a nearby bookstore. There are 2 bookstores near my place and one of them is the older one- the one that has been around before i was born. when i went in there, it is understandable why the newer bookstore is more popular as for the older one, it is very cramped up, the products are very messy and looks old, the lighting is dark.

However, i also understand why my mother prefers to go to the older bookstore. because the uncle is comparatively to the owner of the new store a much nicer guy. He is very serious in what he is doing and you can see that he puts his heart into what he is doing. He is extremely old already, being at least 50 plus to 60 plus. Even my mom calls him uncle. it was then i vow to always buy my files and notebook from the store. sometimes they have nice, cute stuff but it is obscure and they do not know how to display it prominent.

honestly, i think the bookstore is not for revenue-sake but it is more of having something for him and his wife to do. but then again, don't most old folks feel the same way they do too? =)
