The STARBUCKS PLANNER 2009 : Whatyathink?!

This is the new planner... Red, Blue and Black. Is it worth it?

The coffee lovers past time; can I seriously complete these stickers for that Planner? O_O

I still have my 2007 Leather bound Planner with Starbucks silver Pen at home, I also have last year's planner that was not that appealing. I was waiting for this one since I was anticipating a better one, well to my surprise I found a small hard bound notebookish thingy on the shelves of the store. They gave me my card which I need to fill up every time I get me cup of coffee from the same store. This ain't right... we were expecting more but it became waaaaay simpler and ordinary. I did not even see if this was tied up to the same charity that was previously advertised. Could the money from this just go to something else we don't know? That's just another story.

To complete this and get that planner I need to consume 16 cups or more of these:

Holiday featured Beverages ( 8 Stickers )

Dark Cherry Mocha
Toffee But Latte
Praline Mocha <<< This was the one I ordered yesterday! It was good and nutty!

Beverage of your choice ( 8 Stickers ) so you can probably choose the regulars. I perhaps would just take my everyday Caramel Macchiato for this! ^_^

US President Barack Obama : YES WE CAN!

See the blue states here that went all the way for President Barack Obama in the elections, no wonder he overwhelmingly won the elections! I was a skeptic this morning because when I was running on my treadmill, there were about 3 states being counted and it was showing McCain on the lead. I together with about 6 CNN anchors were asking "we never saw it this close". Then again, when I went home and had my bowl of oatmeal the results from other states came in and NEVER did I see McCain lead again. The CNN reporters even did analyze known Republican states were swinging to Obama at that time.

Since he already passed 270 (the magic number you need to win) they went ahead and celebrated in Chicago. There were about 125,00 supporters that frolicked a slightly cold evening in the windy city. Even Rev. Jessie Jackson was there to celebrate. Though the mood was ecstatic, when the speech came... it looked like Obama was calming everyone down instead of celebrating... I thought about that too... peoples expectations might have been a little too high. They need everyone's help in working for that "CHANGE" he promised in day 1 of his campaigns. I just wished he also mentioned Asia... I never heard him mention it in any of his speeches... to think he's even from Indonesia you know?! and btw, his middle name is Hussein I think... =/

Obama wins by a large margin, he only needed 270 to win but it looks like a whopping 338 here! ^_^ He is the first African American President of the United States of America

It's like another busy day at work!

I work for a multinational corporation that engages with clients from North, Central, South America, Europe and Asia. I know how hard it is for our Marketing Department to get plans implemented for their campaigns. The communication mediums are limitless and one company called My Voice Dialing offers "Voice Broadcasting". I told them that this might be the company that they need.

Well I'm sure everybody would ask what that technology is. If you think about it, its just simply automating information through calls. A common term used for this is "Robo Calls" and what My Voice Dialing does is transmit these at rates of thousands of calls per hour. It truly is that fast!

This can be used in different ways and can be provided by only the best in the industry. Competitors that tried to mimic the same technology never had My Voice Dialing's customer base (through lead generation) and personalized approach to support. PLDT in the Philippines use this same technology to have their services told to millions of their telephone subscribers throughout the country. This in turn would convert in more sales today since they can reach them easily and automatically tell people how easy and extremely cost worthy it is to subscribe with their promos. With the Presidential election that will happen today for example, you can always count on Obama and McCain putting investments campaigning through different media. Whoever availed services from My Voice Dialing between them would obviously have the edge over the other since they can automate telling their plans for the country faster and better. It's the one you need if you want to be heard in the marketplace.

It's JUDGEMENT DAY! The US Elections 2008

Obama votes early (an hour and a half ago while I was making this post) and we all hope he gets the worm Lol

Today is the US elections where everyone is watching who will win the seat for the most big boned influential country in the world. I am still rooting for Obama, but McCain was pushing for an upset when I watched his political campaigns yesterday in CNN. Yeah I know I was busy trying to get some sleep because I had about 5 hours only that day. I still managed to get on the tube and listen to their last strategies on states that are undecided. McCain went for those states but Obama on the other hand went onto those that are known republican territories. A new strategy huh?!

Not only that, Obama was tired I think and called that place a different one... I guess fatigue and traveling different counties in the last 48 hours have caught up to him. I hope after he votes today he just sits back at home and relax, then just wait for the results which would probably be counted in a few hours.

By the way, there are some that say Obama should have gone to the funeral of Jennifer Hudson's family. Yeah she's from the same City that Obama resides, tough they probably have understood the campaign is at its end and I mean why should he go there if Oprah and the rest of Hollywood already are there. Early data already indicates Obama winning but there are some undecided states they still have to battle for. You need 270 to win the election and I suppose every poll say Obama has the upper hand. Here's a non official forecast:

I'm sure if he had the chance he would have come. Goodluck in Florida! ^_^
