Sometimes, it's not what you say, it's how you say it. I hope know that you don't purposely try to be mean. But I hope you know that you are.

My Christmas Wishlist
Of course I want peace, serenity, and contentment and all those other altruistic things. Here are some more attainable things I would like to have this Christmas: Any black bag big enough to for all my things to fit in. It should be sturdy enough because this is a bag that I will be bringing to work everyday. A Moleskine Red Diary so I could keep track of all my appointments, deadlines, and other important dates. Any iPod model. I want to have an iPod for all those boring monotonous days and nights I spend staring at my stark ceiling and to keep me company while I work. A Sony Cybershot Camera Phone, or any good camera phone that I can use for blogging purposes so that I wouldn't be too dependent on other people's cameras anymore. A gym membership. LOL! This would really force me to shape up. A free class at the Center for Asian Culinary Studies here in Davao City. Free meal at Lachi's, De Bonte Koe, Tsuru, Swiss Deli, and all the other yummy restaurants here in Davao City. A vacation in Palawan or Boracay. Comfortable Havaianas in metallic silver or gold. And for less materialistic…

Common Sense… Is Not So Common After All!
While I was busy working online earlier tonight, a stranger started bugging me online. Here's a bridged/edited version of our chat... S(tranger): Hi! I don't know how to play DotA online. RJ: Go to GG Game: http://www.gg-game.com, download the GG Client, install, register, run the client, enter a room, then join a game. S: Where do I download? RJ: Thinks WTF?! Is he blind??? The website I directed him to looks like this... RJ: There's a download link on the site. S: Where? RJ: {RAWRRR!} Go to this link: http://www.gg-game.com/download.html S: What version do I download? RJ: {GRRR!} Here were his options... RJ: International version. S: {Finished downloading.} Do I just run the program? RJ: No. You have to install it, then register, then run the program, enter a room, and join a game. S: Nobody is creating a game. RJ: {Fed up with stupid questions and ignores the stranger. RAWRRR!}
Life = Work
November is almost ending. With that comes deadlines, and the pressure and stress of the Christmas season. Right now, my life is composed of work, work, and more work. Over at my main job as a Legislative Research Assistant, work is not so hectic. But there are days like today when there's so much that has to be accomplished. It's not a very demanding job but it requires a lot of thinking. With my second job as a Marketing Consultant, there's a lot of pressure right now. We have an event on December 8, and I haven't heard from any of the potential sponsors. BOOHOO! Plus, I have to regularly update our blog and always be on the look out for news regarding the industry. For the other company I'm consulting for, there's suddenly people interested in getting our services, but I'm not sure yet if my "boss" read my emails. Asan na kaya yun? AND as a professional blogger, I am seriously facing a mountain of things to do. First, of course is maintaining and updating my 11 blogs. Yup, yup... ELEVEN BLOGS! Add to that the twenty plus other blogs I am now tasked of writing for. Ang…
