• Personal Assistant

  My parents have raised me up to become a self sufficient person, and totally contrary to a "Senorito" (spaninsh term for a bossy royalty or elite). Still, I am quite bossy, and I think I will never survive if I did all the work by myself (particularly household chores), thankfully maids in the Philippines are particularly way cheaper than in other countries. I've visited Devin Ream's site and it inspired day sreams of me having my own personal assistant and making my life much easier and much productive. I am too young and too poor to have my own PA, but I wil indulge myself in coming up with some things I can do myself without, and my PA the one doing it.

  1. Clean my house and room (most predictable task, and something our maid is incapable of doing out of solitary intention)
  2. Type all the things I write
  3. Drive me to wherever I want to go (when the time I can afford a car comes)
  4. Do the background research of a particular subject I will write about (ill do the writing myself of course!)
  5. Clean my workplace everytime
  6. Buy me Starbucks
  7. Administrate my schedule
  8. Grow my blog traffic
  9. Comment on my literary or artistic crafts (my PA I will hire should be smart enough to do this)
  10. Be behind a desk or a wheel, and not follow me around (too mafia-ish and corporate-ish when I have him follow me around)
  11. Be a nice talk, and not a suckup, boring drone
  12. Find the best places and best prices to sell my painting
  13. Doing my grocery (I do our grocery for the family alone, even if am just 17)
  14. Write down all the significant ideas that come up to my head (has to have excellent typing skills; I dont want to repeat myself)
  15. Be a part of the family
  16. Be my publicity agent
  17. Gives me massages everytime I feel like it

  It would be really nice to have your own PA, and life would be som much better. Who said it will make you lazy? it would just give you time for more important things, if ever you have importnat things to do. It would be nice to live in a world where everyone, even people as young as me can have their PA. But i guess that will make us a society of half Pa's and half bosses, so that's not good. I guess I can do with a gadget or something that can act as a PA. yeah sure, our current tech matches that, but I am looking for something much better, one that rivals a PA human functionality and capability. It has to be cheap. I can dream can I?
