I want to ____ this month. (October 2008)
I want to …
… learn Ruby on Rails …
… start reading a fiction book again every night …
… review Linux / Unix commands …
… install Ubuntu on my desktop …
… meet up with a TPC seller to have my earphones fixed …
… get a new bank account and deposit a check …
… start ironing my own clothes …
… eat out less often to save money for Christmas …
… plurk less … (haha!)
… do more good … 
… this month.
It’s been a long time since I’ve touched this thing. I didn’t expect it would be this difficult to be back in IT. But anyway, I’ve decided to start a new series of posts here. Well, I know I still have the monthly music report to do and the Davao thing isn’t even done yet. But this is far more important than those two. Trust me.
“I want to ____ this month.” will be a monthly post here on my journal (obviously). Basically, it’s a list of the things I want to accomplish before the current month ends. Of course, I cannot possibly list all the things I want to do. Only those with huge importance will be included. It will also serve as a reminder to me not to waste my time on trivial stuff. 
I got this idea from a comment in Lifehacker, one of my favorite blogs. I figured that making a list like this could really help me better manage my time. At first, I was thinking of keeping it in private posts but then where’s the fun in that? 
At the end of the month, I will evaluate myself on how I worked towards achieving these goals. Cool, huh? 
Well, it’s the 6th day of the month already so I’d better start working.
Of course! We all do, don’t we?
[...] Before I list what I want to accomplish this November, I’ll rate myself first based on how bad I did with my goals last month. [...]
