The Buck Stops Here

The biggest frustration at work: I can't change our college's web site to make it "better".
The biggest frustration at being a newly elected Board of Director: I can't change our organization's web site to make it "better".

I guess this only means one thing: I need to pour out all my frustrations and finally redesign my personal web site. There's the new year's resolution!

Hip Hip Hooray

The 2008 Board of Directors elections for my unnamed professional organization were today. Congratulations to me: I'm the Director of PR/Marketing for the next two years!

So in a nutshell, I will have a social life in 2008. ;D

Save Me

The unthinkable happened today: I bought a Coach wristlet.



Oh...my...God. I'm turning into a girl. Hell is freezing over as we speak! (How appropriate because the purse happens to be cardinal red!)

Santa is Coming to Town

...well, maybe not him, but Lillian and four others from the WV 0rtigas office are coming to Seattle at the end of next week! Out of all of my former co-workers, I've been hoping that Lil gets a chance to come here and by golly, she is! So in a span of one year, our travels together have been Bangkok, Vigan/Laoag/Pagudpud/Baguio, and now Seattle! Woot!

And just to thank her for hunting down some of my Starbucks City Mugs back in the day, I'm making sure to take her to the Starbucks in Pike Place (when have I not taken a WV visitor there?!). But before all of that, I'm still trying to figure out my pasalubong requests. Aside from ChristianBautista, I really can't think of anything else right now. HaHa!

Wishes

With the first snowfall of the season today, I can't help not to think about Christmas...and all the consumerism that goes with it.

So, if there really was a Santa who can give me anything that I want (and who doesn't care that I'm really too old to be asking him for anything), my wish would have to be this:


The latest iMac loaded with Adobe CS3 Design Premium

But since reality bites sometimes, my Christmas wishlist looks more like this:

• iPod Shuffle (red)


• My Lovely Sam-Soon DVD boxset (Region 1)


• external DVD burner


• Adobe CS3 Design Premium (Mac version)

This list would've been a lot longer if I didn't take care most of my wants during Black Friday (I almost fainted when my November credit card bill arrived...and that's why these last four items have turned into "wishes" rather than "got its." HaHa!). At this time of the year, I'm definitely happy to be back in the land of milk and honey.
