Reading to kill time

Chinese New Year this year was very long. It took entire one week. How to kill time, instead of fooling around. I choosed to lend books from national library; walked to Orchard Road; found a relaxing coffee corner (with comfortable sofa).
Then, I ordered some drinks in order to occupy the table. This works all the time.
From time to time, can also see people passing by...observing what they were doing...something like that.
Usually, half a day would pass....in this way, reading really enriches life.
