Done, done, and done.

I am a full-time mom.

I am a full-time, home-based employee.

I am a full-time girlfriend.

I am a full-time friend.

I am a full-time daughter.

I am a full-time sister.

And I am planning to put up a business soon *cross fingers*.

On top of all that, I am planning for a (relatively) bright future that includes Brianna, myself, and two more people.

Although it's important to do what I can do now for that future I desire and keep myself (and everyone else) aligned to that final vision, most of the time, all I want is just to take a break from all of my responsibilities and obligations but we all know how impossible that is.

For me, taking that kind of break means dying for a while and I can't afford to die even for just a second. There's a lot that needs to be done and a lot to be taken care of. I know that I should be delegating jobs to the people in my life but since I want everything done right the very first time, I shoulder a lot of the responsibilities. This also limits the frustrations on my part.

Most of the time, though, I feel like I am going to lose my mind because of all the things that are in my head. Maybe the reason is I don't know how to effectively organize my thoughts and do things all at the same time. So if God and the Universe are listening to me right now, I hope to unlock the skill of being able to multitask.

I cannot multitask to save my life. I can't even fall asleep and listen to music at the same time. That's how bad I am at multitasking. Which can get really, really bad during PMS season 'cause I can't focus on anything but having PMS. Having all those responsibilities I've mentioned earlier call for the multitasking skill not to gain some sort of recognition from other people but just so I can stay sane at the end of the day because it can get pretty cray-zey.

Right now, though, I still can't master this skill so the next best thing for me? Taking a break. Just sitting on one corner, reading a book or watching Friends (for the 1329785678124659th time). Having a break doesn't only give my mind some rest; it also reminds me of my goals and how I should act in accordance to those goals so when I get back into action, I know exactly what to do.

Now, how can I start mastering the art of multitasking?

#FebruaryWishes

Caution: This could get ugly real fast so...

It's February and since #FebruaryWishes is trending on Twitter right this very moment, I thought I might as well join the bandwagon... but not really since I will be doing my February Wishes list here on the blog instead in Twitter.

• To get a decent enough greeting on the anniversary if we're still actually together because I don't know if we still are.
• Finally land a job. I've sent out like a hundred applications since November last year. I really need this.
• Pool enough money for Brianna's birthday celebration on the 5th. Not like I need a lot of money because we're not exactly throwing a huge party for her but I currently don't have a job so...
• Pool enough money for Brianna's Kindle Fire.
• Go out on a date on Valentine's Day because it's been 4 years since I last went on a date during Valentine's. Coffee or a couple of beers with a friend/s will definitely be enough. I just don't want to be that sad girl on Twitter being all bitter during Valentine's Day.
• Get my positivity back. I don't know where it went but I really need to get it back because everything falls into place when it's with me.

So, there. Yeah. Told you it was gonna get ugly...

Happy February.

Edit (February 1, 2013 2:37pm): I might be crossing out one of those wishes one of these days as God, the greatest provider of all, has given me a solid lead to a job and on the first day of February, too! All my soon-to-be boss needs are the signatures of all the important people in the office tapos pirmahan na ng kontrata. Finally! Thank You, Lord!

I shall try this out! Wala namang mawawala.

I don't want to jinx it by broadcasting it so...

...Oh, dear God, please do.

Oh wow. Never thought it'd happen to someone in the family... (My lolo was in the same sitch, then again, I wasn't old enough to understand)

My tita is currently in the ICU unit of Novaliches General Hospital because of stroke. She's in comatose as I'm typing this. It's not the first time I am encountering this kind of situation (a friend of mine was in coma back in '06. Hey, Jayps, I miss you.) but I still don't know how to react. I don't know if I'll try to comfort my cousins or if I'll just keep my mouth shut as to not add up to what they're going through. I just hope my tita pulls through. She's nothing but joy to me.
