Source: pexels.com One of the things I’ve been working on since the year started is using a planner to keep track of my days. I’ll admit, during the first few days of the semester I was excited to use my planner to note every appointment down–and I did, to the point when I had booked myself for two weeks in advance.…

Randomesticity: No, This is Random
Today’s post was NOT brought to you by a messenger from Persia. I’m in the middle of a “should be writing/am actually doing” phase right now, so I’m doing a series of rants, raves, and little bits in between. – Writing updates: While my test development papers are doing okay, my outline for the novella I’m writing is suffering from…
Hey, Girl.
The good news is that I got my laptop back. Yay Georgina! The bad news is that I still have some housekeeping issues to take care of here; the storms and monsoon rains have done a number on Manila (and parts of my university); there are problems to sort out with my program evaluation, and – oh, the humanity! –…

Today’s Dispatch: Chasing Numbers
This post is brought to you by this GIF of Erik Spoelstra’s… um… passionate style of game-calling, as captured during Game 3 of the NBA Finals. (Disclosure: Both of our families are from the same barrio in the Philippines. Which is unfortunate, since it’s things like this – and my undying dislike of LeBron – that keep me from rooting for…
Today’s Dispatch: Procrastination Is Easy
This post has been brought to you by this picture of Paul Walker. Source: trashness.com via Sam on Pinterest Considering that I’m practically halfway through my Script Frenzy screenplay – at 47 out of 100 pages – I’ve found it quite natural to slack off and think of crazy things about the screenplay that have nothing to do with writing…
Today’s Dispatch: The Writing Soundtrack
I’m one of those writers who always gets confused with the playlist i’m supposed to listen to, and the soundtrack for my writing. This month’s Screnzy is no exception. On the one hand, I have Ella Fitzgerald, for the moments where Claire wallows deeper in her own self-pity. On the other: Terence Trent D’arby. (In fairness, the man currently known…
Today’s Dispatch: Hello, I’m Stella, and I’m a Pinterest Addict.
I am somewhat ashamed of the fact that I put this together on Pinterest, at a moment when I should be studying for my exams. (I am even more ashamed that the pinboard contains a picture of Channing Tatum with his shirt off, and another of you-know-who threatening to rip his apart… but that’s another story.) I am not ashamed, however, of…
