The Drive did turn up...

After two days of sweating over that lost Drive, it eventually turned up... in the drawer of my secretary! Whew!

The Perfect Prefatory

Early on, I was taught the importance of starting pleadings and motions with  a smashing  prefatory. A prefatory’s function is simple and elegant—to show in one, two, or more paragraphs, that your opponent is downright wrong. Preferably, it should bite—hard.

So, there.

I’ve been drafting a reply for three days already. Due to the avalanche of other equally important work, the reply was constantly demoted to a lower position in my to-do list.

After finishing my first draft, I launched Lex Libris and searched for jurisprudence to substantiate the prefatory I just made. Unfortunately, nothing came up.

Contrary to the principles of efficient time management for law office workers (okay, I just made that up), I spent two hours searching for the perfect biting quotation that I’ll use to conclude the prefatory.  Just when I found the perfect concluding remark, I was told that we won’t be filing the reply anymore.

For the most part of the day. I’ve been waiting for a cerebral kick start. It came late, however. So I’m still here in the office. I just finished drafting a pleading, which, after discussions with one of my bosses, will not be filed.

In other news, sulit talaga iyong two piece combo chicken meal ng 7-11. I cup of Hotta Rice, 2 cups of gravy, and 2 pieces of tasty (unhealthy!) fried chicken all for 100 bucks!!! Then, I wash all of ‘em down with Diet Coke

The Drive

That drive should turn up, or else….

That Moment of Clarity

I have a long overdue pleading. At 7:34 p.m., it all became clear.

Trial Post

I just installed Windows Live Essentials 2011 and I’m testing functionalites of Windows Live Writer. I’m done with my self-maintained wordpress blog at the moment, as I don’t have the time to manage the backend side of things.

mucking aroung with my e-620

I just got an Olympus E-620, and I think such a fine DSLR is wasted on me. Haven't had the time to read the manual, but I think I should do so soon. Here is a sample photo taken by my brother. It's so refreshingly clear, my not so refereshing face is displayed here with all my pockmarks, blemishes and stubborn fat:)
