Procrastination

Procrastination is one of my biggest problems right now. It’s so hard to shake it off my system. Just the other night, even though I know I had a lot of tasks to finish, I still watched the ab workouts video that my friend sent to me. She wanted me to show it to my brother who’s into body building. I ended up not only watching that video but other videos I found in my archives as well.

I need to stop procrastinating. I have so many plans I need to put into action the soonest possible time but if I procrastinate, I think I won’t be able to achieve all of my goals.

Nagging problem

A nagging problem can be as effective as a quicktrim. You lose your appetite to eat. You lose weight because you can’t eat. That’s the good side of a problem. Losing your appetite. You also get to strengthen your faith. And you discover who your true friends are.

Of course we all prefer not to have any problem at all. Who wants one, anyway? But because we all have problems, we need to find something positive in it. We can’t focus on the negative all the time or it will defeat us in the long run.

I was snobbed.

I saw a blogger I was friends with in the past. She ignored me when she saw me. I know she recognized me because there’s a spark of recognition on her face. I recognized her, too and would have greeted her had she didn’t sped up the escalator with her family. She might be reading this now and it’s the truth, girl.

Anyway, I didn’t lose anything with the snob. I didn’t lose sleep over it enough to use the best eye cream for dark circles. I just shrugged my shoulders and moved on. I told my friend who’s with me about it. We both laughed about the fact that she might be thinking I will initiate small talk when in fact all I had in mind was to just acknowledge her, nod and say that we’re in a hurry.

Wrinkled and gray

If I keep on noticing all the negative things around me, I will end up wrinkled and gray early in life. In fact, I am already gray. My hair, that is. Wrinkled? Not yet. But I don’t want to know how I would look like wrinkled. I will stop being overly sensitive about so many things so I won’t have to make use of the prototype 37c review I read the other day. Who would want to be battling wrinkles anyway?

Not me.

From now on, I will work hard and will just focus on my goals that I want to achieve before the year ends. That’s it.

Dear Entrecard Droppers…

If your blog is about hacking accounts or downloading illegal files, please don’t drop here anymore. I won’t return it. I don’t support such blogs or sites.

The same goes for those blogs or sites using women scantily clad or posing inappropriately and it has nothing to do with the blog or site’s theme. I understand blogs about undies or bikinis will use a widget with a woman wearing such. That is fine with me. But for the widgets using women, or men for that matter, which has nothing to do with their blog/site, stop dropping here also. Again, I won’t return it.

I am not being a prude or self-righteous. I just think there’s a better way to attract droppers/visitors to your site without using inappropriate or misleading images.

Thank you.

Kamag-anak Inc.

Comedienne Mae Paner a.k.a. Juana Change and the spokesperson of the new administration are having a tiff right now. And all because the former publicly noted the participation of the Abads in the Aquino administration. I am talking about Butch Abad his daughter. Because Juana Change posted it in her Facebook account, Atty. Edwin Lacierda fired back that she was just envious of the Abads.

I would like to say that I’ve been noticing how Lacierda is always frowning when being shown on tv. He is the president’s spokesperson. Shouldn’t he be projecting a good image because he represents the president? Another thing, I believe Juana Change has a point. Why the Abads in different government posts? Isn’t Butch Abad enough and he still need to put each and every one he owes gratitude to including Abad’s daughter?

If Noynoy wants a good and controversy-free 6-year term, he should get rid of people who will give him a bad image. Stop the Kamag-anak Inc. Stop putting friends in government posts and instead put competent people who will do good in office. Stop putting people he owes something to. Abad, Mar Roxas, and other persons prominent during his campaign.

Imposing on relatives

A good motorhome insurance is needed especially if you use your motorhome a lot. A family that lives a block away would always go to the province using their motorhome. Instead of imposing on the kindness of relatives, they use the motorhome to spend the night in.

I don’t like imposing relatives. I don’t like it when they assume they can spend the night at home. We are not use to having overnight guests. We really appreciate it if they ask first before coming over. I think that’s the polite way of doing things.

Friend requests

I got a friend request from a high school classmate. I think I mentioned it in the past that my Facebook account is only for the people with whom I really interact with. Or to those with whom I want to reconnect with. From time to time, I accept friend requests from old classmates. But I check their profiles first since I want to know if they are the same person I’ve known in the past.

This old high school classmate of mine was not really a friend. I barely talked to her in class. We were only classmates in freshmen year. After that, I didn’t know what happened to her anymore.

So I checked her Facebook profile. And boy did she looked crazy to me! Literally crazy! She also looked like she’s in the flesh trade, if you know what I mean.

I ignored her friend request. As I’ve said in the past, my Facebook account is not there to win the most number of friends in the history of social networking. It’s there to communicate with friends and love ones. I really ignore friend requests from persons I am not interested in becoming friends with. Or to those who look totally weird or crazy to me. Like that old high school classmate.

Do you approve all Facebook friend requests you get?

Great deals, patience and three quotes

When I need to get something from the store, I always make sure that it’s the best buy. There are great deals in every store you find. Do check it out before grabbing the first thing you find. Oftentimes, you can get big discounts with these deals you can find in stores.

I must say that I really learned a lot from a former boss. She was the one who taught me to be mindful of products I buy. She taught me the value of patience. I can buy what I want right now. But if I wait a little while, I can get it for a discount. I also need to get quotes from three vendors for an item, just to be sure you are getting the lowest possible price.

Great deals, patience and at least three quotes from vendors. Remember that.

New customized theme

I am thinking of a new customized theme for this blog. I am just not too sure what I really want right now but definitely I want something new.

Something blue. Or pink! Or red. Hmm…

Or teal! I found this cute teal premade WordPress theme that is also affordable. The only thing I don’t like about it is that it has no header design except for some swirls. I am also asking for a quote from Kathie Wiehanne of SimplyWP, the same designers who made this theme back in 2008.

Anyway, I will keep you posted in this quest to get a new theme for this blog.

Happy blogging everyone!
