A Romantic Agenda
After some sort of celebration, I already need to face my school chores. Well, that’s a need I refuse to fulfill simply because I’m not in the mood–and my mind and body haven’t achieved a state of enlightenment just yet. But for now, I’m a happy bum. Actually, I’m waiting for my 2010 planner because it will start a spark of gusto and will kick my ass towards my unused study desk. I thought Red Moleskine’s coming to me, but I changed my mind–I’ll settle for the mass-adored Starbucks Planner. Four stickers before possession; not bad. Okay, I did break my words about this thing. But who cares?
Maxwell & Hayden
I think I can get mine by Monday. And this means I’ll start working by that day–ah promise. For the mean time, I use my laptop and smarty pants phone to lay everything on the table. Things-to-do lists, appointments, meetings, assignments–yes, I’m pretending to be busy like this. I like my phone and its complementary, partner-in-crime PC suite very much. They’re actually easier to use than a planner. Just bring it out from your pocket, press the calendar key and start typing your business stress. Unlike an old good planner which is a brat. You have to open your bag, look for the day, bring out your pen and scribble like a corporate cat. In my case, I schedule/note everything when I’m in school and synchronize the information to my laptop at home so I can see an overview of how I’ll be murdered for a week or for a month. But well, handwriting is priceless. Planners are also identifying themselves as journals. This kind of identity crisis will cater to your hardcore business mindset and contemplative private life.

So I’m going for both: a journal-slash-planner and an electronic version of such. I actually synchronize both so they’ll tell me consistent blabbers of busy life. The personal entries would remain on my journal though–my laptop won’t care about my emotional ink anyway. With two entities constantly reminding me of what to do, I hope I’ll never miss a date next year. I’ll be romantic to you, 2010.
Merry Christmas! Haha, I just came back to blogging. :p
BTW, nice phone damn you haha
Merry Christmas, Barry! Yeah, Hayden’s one nice guy. I bought him using my own money–an investment indeed. ;)
You’re going for the Starbs Planner?! Surprising.haha I thought you didn’t like it. Me, I’m not sure na if I still want the Starbs Planner. I’m scouting for other options. By the way, have you seen the new Tomato Planner? It looks better than the last time. I wanted to buy it, but I’m still thinking kasi it still has limited space. Now, I’m really undecided what to buy :(
Yeah, apparently, I have collected stickers na pala, isa na nga lang to obtain a planner. So, ‘dun na lang, ayaw ko na gumastos. :( Really? Tomato’s nice! I don’t mean I buy stuff from there but their planners actually look good. Check Got Heart! :)
Alps, I already saw it. I didn’t like it :( I think I’m going for the Design Your Life Planner, the one Ren had last year. And by the way, I haven’t started planning my life ahead, academically speaking that is.
…and, I think I’m gonna make an entry about planners, too.haha wait for it :b
But the Starbucks is costlier than a Moleskin. And I still don’t have any stickers, so I’ll go for Moleskin. Haha.
Theoretically, the SB’s more expensive. But I have stickers na kasi. :( Go for Moleskine!
ayos yan! iba pa rin talaga ang planner/journal!
hindi ko pa alam kung ano pipiliin kong journal eh! may meron sa iba na wala sa iba… yung gusto ko nasa iba’t ibang planner!
happy new year!
TRUE. Wala talagang perfect planner. :( Happy new year!
Deym, ang organized mo alps! I had three planners last year. only used them til march. lol.
kala ko naman romantic talaga! paasa :P
Woah, three planners? Academic, Personal & ___? Haha. Actually, hanggang sometime early ko rin lang ginagamit ang planner ko. HAHA. Yesh, paasa ang title. Titles are formulated to deceive anyway. ;)
Academic, personal, and …dates? HAHAHA joke lang.
i wanted to get moleskin but it’s too expensive eh. got a “This Planner will change your life” one instead
I already have my brown (gold actually), traditional-looking, professional and classy planner. Completely opposite from my old Levi’s jeans-skinned planner. Looks like for older people–hopefully it’ll help me mature. HAHA. I just wish I had that ‘smarty pants phone’ of yours. Anyway, acads should be put aside, it’s our last holiday break! better make the most out of it. Forget thesis! Now I’m ruining my online image. haha. Hang-out soon!
So do you need an online reputation manager of some sort na? Haha. I like classic and minimalist planners nga eh. It tells a “strictly work” enforcement kasi. :) See you, bud brother! LOL
Have a romantic year ahead. :)
You too, thanks John!
i dont usually dish out my comments in english but hell i’ma try anyway.. Yun na yun hahaha.. Hanggang death note notebuk lang ako tol eh, sana makuha mo din eventually ano! Padaan at merikrismas!
Ano ‘yung Death Note Notebook? As in the anime-turned-notebook? Haha. Actually, notebooks are nice din as a planner or journal–’yun talaga, free kang magScribble. :) Thanks sa visit! Happy new year!
As in yung anime turned tv show or tv show turned anime di ko sure impernez hehe.. Oo my ganung notebook sa comic alley hehe, makalat kasi ako madalas kaya ayoko planner.. Ayan sabi ko babalik ako eh!
Yay! Salamat sa pagbisita’t pagbalik. :D Ako rin makalat, kaya nga I am hoping that a planner would be a prescription drug for my messy life. :))
4 stickers na christmas or regular drink? you can have the card someone gave me-4 stickers for regular drinks.
Haha, thanks for the offer, Mita! I got a planner na actually. Hehe.
I was thinking to get myself a planner pero i guess they’re too bulky for me… Anyway, good luck this 2010… keep the posts coming… ^^
Yeah, planners don’t suit everyone’s taste. My dad’s an example. He does not “plan”. He just, err, scribbles. Haha. Good luck sa 2010! And nice seeing you here!
And btw, why can’t I comment on your blog? :(
I just fixed it kuya, I forgot to change the comment settings. haha :D
