I find solace over the weekend. Maybe because it’s the only time that I get to relax a little. Though I still have a lot of work to do, it’s because of my days off that I get to spend more time doing nothing which is already a big thing for me.

It’s already the remaining half of the 2 days and now I’m just waiting for time to pass before I have to get back and work again. Let me just enjoy a little rest while I can.

I don’t know about other people but I get more work done being alone. I can do more tasks and be more productive when I go about my tasks by myself. Although it would be good if there’s somebody who’ll be able to give a tip or two on how to got about accomplishing a task, I tend to veer from topic and end up not really doing anything.

Still, this freelance work of marketing sites is helping me learn more about what I need to study as well as see the potential in this business. I still have a long way to go.

There is such a label called a guy’s guy: your best bud, your wingman, your ally. He’s the pal you hang out with the most because you feel comfortable being around and makes you feel important. A guy that that doesn’t need to act cool cause he is one and it comes out naturally. In the world of movies, Jacques D’Azur, is such a guy.

However, this French film actor/producer/chess master/director/backgammon champion/waterskiing pioneer/tennis player — I don’t know what else he can do! — was reportedly lost and his family is in need of his help. He was reported missing near Tahiti while on his yacht, which is his usual pre-Cannes film festival vacation.

Now, Stella Artois 4%, the official partner of the Cannes Film Festival is campaigning to help search for Jacque’s true heir. They have launched a site to spread the word and identify the kin of this person.

Stella Artois 4% have now sent out a number of video clips, hoping to locate Jacques. You can do your part by taking a look to check if your can recognize him and help us find him by posting on your own sites; hoping to find at least a heir to go to Cannes in his place.

I’m now going back to work and I haven’t even done a lot of work even on leave. I just felt the need to sleep while I was away but I’m still exhausted from all the stuff that I’ve been doing.

Oh well, so far, SocialSpark has been good to me and I’m not busy with anything except for the freelance job that I have. For now, I need to work on writing more articles to have a better flow of marketing the sites that we have.

It’s back to work, Ed.

Some time ago, I blogged about the iLASIK Video Contest wherein people could submit entries on how laser vision correction by Abbott Medical Optics Inc. (AMO) was able to change and improve the lives of people who have undergone the procedure in order to address their sight.

Right now, winners were announced from the many participants who showcased how they have changed for the better. What’s great is the $5,000 grand prize which is pretty slick cause not only did they get improved vision, they also won themselves some cool prizes.

The list of winners of the iLASIK Video Contest can be seen at www.GottaSeeThisNow.com; you can also see the other entries of the participants who joined in that site.

It’s definitely great that these people were able to see clearly because of this new technology. I would like to recommend this to people have problems with their vision such as my colleague. He was having issues with seeing clearly and didn’t like wearing glasses anymore. The procedure is not that complicated and it feels like you’ve been given a new lease on your eyes.

Darn, I thought I could get away from the office when it was time for me to go home. When I checked my emails in a cafe, I saw a lot of messages waiting to be answered. To think that this is my sideline and I’m supposed to comply and follow each of them. I’m stoked with the workload!

Now I have to deal with other jobs that I still have to finish some pending ones. It’s time for me to bring out the coffee, even if I’ve long given up on it.

I’m seeing that I’m spending more than what I’m earning which is a big no-no.

I was planning to take a hike during my week-long vacation leave from work but it seems that even the promo fares is just too much for me. I had to reorganize the payments and I found out that there are still a  number of areas where I still needed to put my money to good use.

I’m all about money but even this is too much for me to handle. I’m not a big spender, it’s just that there’s just so much that I need to prepare for in order to make things easier for me and my family.

For now, I’m hoping I could lessen the cash that I’m spending.

Well actually, she bought the laptop herself due to the hassles of shipping overseas and other complications that arise in sending out a device to the Philippines. But that’s beside the point already; she got a laptop as a bonus for the services she’s been doing for an employer of hers.

I haven’t been very successful with odesk (when you compare my credentials with hers) because my freelance jobs are more blog-related and I’m not as active as I thought I would be.

Anyhow, her employer whom she met at odesk seemed satisfied in hiring her as a VA (Virtual Assistant) that he (employer) decided to give her a laptop as a bonus. Now why am I the one blogging the information out for her as if I’m the one received the laptop? Simply because I’m just so happy for her, who wouldn’t be right?

Well, because I was the one who sent the money to her. She doesn’t have paypal account and had to use mine in order to transact the cash. After all the currency conversions and waiting for them to reflect at the bank, I sent the money happily and proud that somebody was able to get her bonus early this year.

Ha, I finished you mofo! 20 articles in a day!

Thought I could never finish it but just because I had a clear mind and a good night’s rest, I was able to finish the articles as fast as I could. It didn’t help that I had to write about the same topic over and over again but I’m glad that somebody helped me finish those and I was able to accomplish majority of it. Now I feel burned out knowing that I’ve done the task.

Currently, I have to get back on my original line of work so I can earn more money on the place where my services are more valued.

It’s payday and I used up all my money and deposited them in my savings account. It feels good knowing that I have place to keep my money instead of spending it for unnecessary things. The past years I’ve always asked myself why I wasn’t able to save as much when I was earning more. Even if it would be just 500 bucks a month every pay day. After every year, I’d get depressed because I had nothing at the end of each year.

Now I promised myself that I’d open up an account for me to allot some money for savings. Even if I’m going to use the money some time at this year, at least I would be able to come up with a certain amount for use.

Currently, I feel like I can restrain myself from spending which is pretty good knowing that I have some limits and I can control the cash that I get. After going to different banks and ATMs to withdraw, I went to another one to consolidate all and save.

Now I’m broke again.
