all these things that i've done
1. Thinking that watching one episode of Princess Hours is beneficial to hasten the easing up of your toothache before you get started on what’s needed to be done
2. Becoming engrossed as to when the cold, arrogant leading man starts to show his affection towards the cute, unconventional leading lady, who has been trying to find her place within a love square the whole while, and still watching even though you know it’s formulaic and there’s no ending you’d expect other than happily ever after
3. Marathoning Princess Hours from 2 AM to 11 AM
4. Sleeping a lot to make up for the pagpupuyat over the marathon
5. Concocting stories in your head while awake and not doing anything
6. Reading White and Strunk’s Elements of Style
7. Rereading stuff you’ve written and consciously trying to apply what you’ve learned so far out of #6
8. Attempting to organize music library
9. Attempting to organize computer files
10. Reading fiction published online
11. Discovering good music in your vast WinAmp music library
12. Learning how to use the different functions of a Canon Ixus 80 IS by reading the manual and then applying what you’ve read to practice
13. Playing Dynomite, Solitaire and Hearts on the PC
14. Looking for a certain Korean movie on the net unsuccessfully, but other movies caught your attention in the process, so you ended up watching the first part of one movie you found intriguing
15. Watching another part of Nodame Cantabile Live Action Special Episode 2, since the whole thing’s divided into 8 and you’ve only watched up to the 4th
16. Creating a new playlist on Imeem
17. Downloading a song and uploading this and other songs to Imeem since it doesn’t carry the versions of the songs that you want
18. Finding out at last how to be able to get a mp3 copy of a song you wanted but don’t have a source of, and doing this not only to that one song but also to a number of songs from the same band and other bands as well
19. Recalling my previous blog entry and noting the mistake I made – and conscientiously going about to correct it
20. Contemplating why the behavior of a certain someone annoyed me big time
21. Thinking of the time when I can finally do all of these stuff that I want to do
22. Writing down this list with the intent of posting it in your blog
23. Continuously being on the lookout for items to add to this list, and when writing additional items, meticulously checking the style and grammar.
All these I’ve done for the past three days, starting Saturday till about 7:40 pm tonight. These over what? Oh come on, it’s just the thesis. Right. So I’ve got to stop this now and start working. I can feel Ma’am Djanna putting pressure on me to submit the other parts of my thesis already. So yes, aja! I can do this. Mind over matter, baby. Will stop all this nonsense and submit a decent RRL or R&D tomorrow.

3rd of March thoughts
'twas the 3rd of March... Had a lazy day, thought I owed it to myself. Ended up finishing Twisted V so that I could return it to its owner. It was the last article in that book that gave me something to think about. It seemed like a fitting thought since that day was something like a self-evaluation day of sorts. And it's what I've been thinking about for quite some time already, since, you know, i'm nearing my quarter-life crisis (am i not having one already - the crisis, not the quarter-life thing - still a few more years to go before that). And you know, it's time I did something out of my life already. It's not like i'm not doing anything; it's more about me becoming more proactive about my life sometimes. hell yes, I'm usually just waiting for things to happen, drifting, going with the flow. Yes, years still ahead. Things to do, things that can be done. Everything's totally up to me. I can do anything. "Nothing is impossible." It's just the perennial mind over matter battle in our heads. Anyway, the article was about the movie Logan's Run so there's something about Sandmen in the article.
