My first day of 2010.

Right now I am listening to the Boys Over Flowers soundtrack. I kinda missed the songs. Just last December 31, 2009 -- when I went to the office, my office mate was playing T-max's Paradise on her computer. It has really put a smile on face despite the fact that I was right there in the office -- working instead of preparing for the New Year celebration.^_^

Maybe I already got over with Boys Over Flowers. Maybe Not. One thing for sure, I am not over Kim Hyun Joong :D and Hwang Bo!

Well, what have I done today -- the first day of the year! Honestly,  I  was pretty LAZY today. *Blush* I woke up around 9am. I checked my Squidoo dashboard. Cool! My lenses had a boost. Nine (9) lenses in TOP 2000 - not bad. I surfed the net and came across Captain Squid's blog. I've really spent a lot of time on that blog. It has "great" tips on Squidoo lens making. I also created a New Year's Greetings for Feeding my Addiction to Boys Over Flowers blog.  Then around 11am, a friend  who works abroad called and greeted me a Happy New Year. We had a chitchat that lasted for 30mins. After that, I went back to my desktop and checked my Squidoo lenses again planning to make 2 lenses today. However, I became a lil drowsy so I lay down on my bed to take a nap. I woke up when my brother entered my room only to find out that it's already 30 minutes past 4. Damn. I can't believe I slept that long. I grabbed a towel and took a FAST shower.

After 30 minutes or so, I checked my Squidoo Dashboard again. (oh no.. i'm getting a lil obsessed with this dashboard)  I also signed up in Commission Junction and Pepperjam Network. I'm still thinking whether  to sign up in Infolinks or not.

By 8pm, my husband  bf called. I need to pack my batteries for these long conversations. ^__^  I told him, I'm going to make some lenses about DSLRs and its accessories. He owns a Nikon D5000. That's his GF if I'm not around :P

I'm still thinking what modules should I put in my lens. Hmm..

Do you have a DSLR? Why not get one? It's so amazing powerful, it can capture the best moments of your life  that you don't want to miss. ;)
