My To Do List & The Starbucks Planner
For the sake of finishing all the things I REALLY NEED TO DO without PROCRASTINATING... (actually, I am already procrastinating since almost all of the things in my To Do List should have been finished months, weeks, or days ago) ...I decided to make a To Do List and once I've finished a task, I'm going to strike it out of my list so I'll have this sense of accomplishment. This actually works for me but I'm just too lazy and too SCARED to do my To Do List because I will be then faced with all the things I need to do. So here goes nothing:
1. Ethics Assignment - Nakakatamad! I don't want to do this. For such a simple class with no finals, the assignments are really time-consuming. For this specific assignment, I have to e-mail Papa and ask him for some family history of the Isaacs. I also have to e-mail my other relatives for accurate information regarding their career/work and year of birth.
*currently chatting with Tita Ciel. We are debating over the simplest thing such as her birthday and how old she is. She said 1972 birthday nya. Tapos sabi nya 34 na raw sya. That means 10 years tanda nya sakin. But how can that be kung 1972 sya. Tapos ako pa raw ang mahina sa math.*
2. Submit Resume - I will be applying for this position in our company and I am PRAYING (and I seldom pray) really, really hard that I will be the lucky applicant to get this. Please God! Minsan lang ako humiling sa inyo. Let this be your Christmas Gift to me.
3. Fleet Manual - I stupidly placed in my Goals for the Year to create this manual because I can't think of anything else to do and we need to submit our goals and again I procrastinated and I ended up cramming. Madugo-dugo rin itong project na ito. Status right now: 5% completion. Deadline: End of November. Good luck nalang sa akin.
4. Critique Papers for Infoman - I actually love writing critique papers, reaction papers, reflection papers, book reports, etc. In fact, this was my sideline when I was in college. 1 page reaction paper - P100. Book report - P500-800. Closing line for a speech - 1 Mcdo Sundae Cone. Paragraph for a speech - 1 Mcdo Meal. Ang cheap ko noh!
So good luck to me. This is only a very partial list. I have about a dozen more things that I need to do such as reformat my PC and upgrade to WinXP, find out what the heck is the problem of my webcam, finish Age of Mythology Titans Expansion, update my website, update my other blogs, change the lay-out and design of this blog, clear out my closet, buy books, buy dvds of csi, borrow friends dvd, look for new shoes/clothes/bags, etc.

Starbucks has this Limited Edition 2005 Planner which you can get just by purchasing the following beverages:
4 Peppermint Mocha Favorites
4 Toffee Nut Latte Favorites
6 Frappuccino Blended beverages
7 Starbucks Beverages of your choice
A total of 21 Starbucks Beverages which I need to consume before 15 January 2005! Of course I won't be able to consume all of these so I'll be needing the help of a lot o my friends. I already have 3 stickers (which means I had 3 drinks and I would like to thank Don for ordering a frap!) so I have 18 more drinks to go.
Why would I spend and twist the arms of my friends to have coffee at Starbucks just so I could get my planner? Because the planner is sooo cool! It has postcards in it which reminds me of Griffin & Sabine and the paper and the design inside the planner is so nice!

Again, it's already past midnight and I'm still awake. I need to sleep already because I still have work later this afternoon and I cannot just surf the internet like I normally do at work on a weekend because I have to finish a lot of paper work and projects and I need to do them already so I can take my leave. If I were to take my 5-day leave, what will I do and where will I go?
