One More Weekend

July11

Call it a ubiquitous ‘Thanks God Its Friday’ syndrome which for me is like ‘Thanks God Its Today’. Indeed God is good. Yet, with one more weekend will pass like a… flash? I could not help but to enjoy it to the fullest - a tinge of happiness away from a windowless office life and crowded MRT which for some reason I could find a seat - not always but often.

My friends Friska, Yanice and Jessica will perform at a garage today and tomorrow. I will watched their great performance for sure after a physio session and meeting my cousin at Lavender.

Ci Steph will come for transit this Saturday. She is currently studying at Queen’s Canada. - giving us who were once part of RIB Indonesians crime syndicate (who are currently in Singapore) another reason to gather. Lunch on Sunday and maybe more.

On separate occasion, one of my last projects I supervise for RIB - RI Boarding Website has finally taken shape. Currently pushing for the formation of boarders editorial team and complete handover to Ariz and Rio. Really thankful for Mr Soon who is very supportive in any way possible. With few more triggers, the pieces will fall into the correct place.

In any case, one of my nifty tool to survive this office life: IMEEM!!!

And yes, imeem is legal.

Facebook Salvo to save the day… or time

June30

Simple productivity tips while tinkering with Facebook: Facebook Salvo. Ok, the name was not exactly the most creative one and the process is not exactly new but I guess it worth written just in case some of you are drowned in the sea of mini-feeds and applications.

In short, Facebook Salvo involves doing a barrage of Facebook related activities within short period of time. See for yourselves on how I usually do it.

Facebook Salvo as I write to people's wall repeatedly

The example show how I replied to wall messages which I have neglected over the weekend. Notice the timestamp of each activity. Of course it helps to do the salvo during time of the day in which I am usually least productive - before and after lunch - or when I was super bored - usually in the middle or the nights or right before office hour ends. *grin

Of course the best course of action is to close the Facebook tabs and never open it.

Maybe I should dedicate this week to Facebook related posts.

A quick update: my parents were in Singapore last weekend. Together with one of my brothers and sister. It was fun. My youngest brother could not make it due to smallpox.
