Nineteen Working Days
4
| Jan 2009 |
mood: sleepy
watched last night: The Forbidden Kingdom
bought today: a small calendar from a ¥100 store
Tomorrow I start the first real day of writing after a long break plus brainstorming. I'm totally anxious to get going. This month has only nineteen working days due to various national holidays, etc. and so on. Knowing that of course makes me even more determined to make the best use of those days. I'm trying to figure out the point where marginal productivity diminishes because I feel like I've been working hard for a long time without sufficient return for all my effort. I spend so many months on something, but at the end I don't have a whole lot to show for. So that's something I really want to work on this year.

“I feel like I’ve been working hard for a long time without sufficient return for all my effort”
Feel a bit like that myself. I’ve gotta focus and achieve more!

Dude. That’s what I need. A thousand won calender from Daiso!
:) Thanks for reminding me, lady.

May — Ha. I should’ve known.
Portia — Thanks! It’s something I’m struggling with: how to maximize ROI on my time.

You definitely have a lot to show for it! You got an agent, and a book pubbed all in the same year. I’d say that’s pretty darn productive.
BTW – I want a Sonicare sooooooo bad! When I ever have that much spare $$$ hanging around, that’s what I’m getting. Enjoy it for me ;).

Jaine — Do they have Daiso stores in Korea too? I thought it was a Japanese thing.
Sri — Thank you so much! You too!
Bethany — Thanks. You make me blush. BTW — Sonicare is about $100 or less from Amazon. Check out their older models, like e-series or FlexCare (I think that’s the name). The one I got is the latest one I could find here.
