Sucky

Sometimes it sucks to be an adult. I'm beginning to think I really don't have what it takes to be one. I was struggling to finish my sideline and at the same time study for the board exams, and to finish my day job as well...and, well, ma just voiced out my innermost insecurities. Shoot. Parang whatever elation I had over my accomplishment for today just went down the drain.

How can other people handle such load and stay calm and collected? Sometimes I feel stupid for trying to balance such things. At other times I feel useless because I'm not preoccupied with things. And like now, my frame of mind is, I'm wasting all this effort but in the course of doing things, I'm not making people happy. And I'm not making myself that happy either.

Does that make me selfish? How come other people seem to balance things and make other people satisfied as well?

Anyway, sorry for this post, I just need to let that out.

Honestly, I think you're trying to do so many things in a short period of time. Don't be too hard on yourself. And don't feel that it's your responsibility to make people happy. They will be happy if they want to, not because if you do so and so for them. If they don't wanna be happy, that's not your problem.

Hi mumty! how are you?

no, I don't think you're selfish. my god, kung ikaw selfish na, ano pa kaya ako? the important thing is to do what you love. do what keeps you motivated to wake up every morning. i agree with joyce. we should all try to give up trying to make our parents happy or to impress other people at some point.

and try to forget all that worrying about adulthood. it will arrive and form itself, as you discover your talents and "niche" is in this crazy world. things have a mysterious way of falling into place, you know :)

cheers!

with regards to time management, dont worry everything will work out, just do what you love doing, mejo nanjan pa kasi ang hassles and fear ng looming board exam. but once nalagpasan mo na yun, maiisip mo, andami mo palang freetime na to do many things. =)
