The post where this dude, Matt went around the world dancing with people. All starts from an idea. I say, be bold, be creative – and if you have something that you think you should be doing , common it is 2008 now, it is possible.

Written by a past life waiter, walking through his life as waiting tables in several restaurants. Makes me want to just dive into doing part time waiting for tables. To know how is it to be on the spot. To experience things said in the book. This book showed me how bad a customer I can be sometimes. *ehem*.

This book, is the brilliant example some *book* are meant to be in audio format. The book is dramatized. More than 1 reader, it’s hillarious, it’s good that I want to listen again :) .

I’ve been blogging about Randy Pausch and speaking about him to friends about his journey. Truely amazing person. This is a good read to grasp his preparation about his Last Lecture, and his lecture about Time Management.

I can’t believe I am blogging about books I read. :p

Randy left us last Friday. Seriously, I don’t care if you don’t believe in self help books, lectures and talks, you just have to listen to his lectures. It’s really really amazing.

Here is one on Time Management

I’ve blogged his last lecture here

Yes, I am guilty of it. I let myself indulge. Indulgence is sinful. Heck, the podcast and audiobook that I once enjoy, I find myself wonder off too easily while I am driving.

There is something in the air that needs clearing.

Here are things I am proposing myself to do:

  1. Stop twittering. Off all twitter client, including handphones. TSK! You can still follow me.
  2. No more facebook , especially that dumb brain game. You’ve been warned!
  3. Itunes open only to download my podcasts. Watch them only on the way to work.
  4. Adium & Yahoo Messenger off. Bite me!
  5. Email auto checking off. Will only check mail early the day & end of day
  6. Off my RSS reader. Yes, i know, i said how great they were. Imagine if I am not using to check the feeds. I’ll be checking tripple the amount.
  7. I shall not watch Sarah Connor Chronicles.
  8. I shall stop blogging.

In the quest to be more efficient, and less distracted and more focus. The icons are so shinny, they are so clickable. I love my mac, you see.

It’s insanely tough….. and I really need to do something about it quick. Before I drown myself. 3 am and I am blogging this.

If you haven’t heard from me for awhile. You have my number. It’s call a cellphone. Let me tell you, I miss your voice as much as you miss mine. So, call in, check if I am still alive. Just in case i dug myself a hole to deep to climb up. Hey, it happens. Bring me a rope. A long one. Just don’t hang me with it.

Coffee anyone ? :)

Please say no.

Over and out

I was speaking to a buddy of mine online. Like a lot of us blog junkies out there, we surf to different blog sites and news site everyday. Some are updated daily, some are just random… Just like my blog over here.

I stumble upon RSS Readers to help me surf the blogs I frequent more efficiently. Have a look on the screencast, let me know if you benefited from it.

The 2 free rss readers you may wanna try out:

Windows: RSSOwl

Mac OSX : Vienna

I personally use Vienna on my mac. It’s free, it’s opensource and it does the job quite well.

Happy surfing :)
