11.00am On Saturday after an early morning assignment I go to Oxford to spend some time.
11.30am I scan all the racks in fiction and non-fiction sections.
11.45am Then I turn to classics, though I have failed to read them earlier.
11.46am I see compilation of Four Great American Classics including The Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne, The Adventures of Hucleberry Finn by Mark Twain, The Red Badge of Courage by Stephen Crane and Billy Budd Sailor by Herman Melville.
11.47am It was the edition I had seen earlier also.
11.49am My mind in dilemma, whether to buy it or not?
11.50am I am still in puzzle because my resolution of not to buy any book due to slowdown force me to leave.
11.52am book… buying not…. Yes… no… yes…. No… no…
11.55am Time for decision….
12.00pm I buy the book and break the resolution.
12.05pm Resolutions are meant to be broken, says my mind.
