Everything seems screwed up!

Have you been bungled by lots of responsibilities and can't cope up with everything and you just start screaming within yourself angry, pissed and screwed up not with the people around you but with every situation that hampers you to finish a thing and dumps you on your darn baloney sulky mood that delays or even stops your interest and willingness to get things done as soon as possible?

Just like this:

1. You just came from a training thus, you're tired and wanted to sleep but when you do so and you're at the middle of your dream, your mother wakes you up while your younger sister shouts at you that somebody is looking or calling for you outside the house. What happens? You're disrupted and messed up because of the abrupt shift of the atmosphere from fantasy to reality and going dizzy while hanging over from the insufficient sleeep, you run to the house's main door to face your visitor and later did you know that you're just wearing a boxer shorts without a top.

2. Your brother requested you to encode the TGS of a fast food store on MS Excel since he can't do it himself because of his busy and pressured schedules at work. But since your computer is near the room of your grandmother where her door is slightly opened so you can hear her call whenever she needs you (she has pleurisy and he can hardly voice out what she needs) and that the light you use passes through her room and she can't sleep under that condition, you got to kill your light and struggle to see the data on the TGS form through dim light.

3. You got to use the computer since you have to send an e-mail to a coordinator of your project that you need some financial and intellectual support. However, your younger sister has her assignments to be passed the next morning and you don't have any amount on your pocket to rent from Internet cafes.

4. You are trying to focus on a certain write up without any disruptions but your uncle living beside your house loves to turn the volume louder with his 50s to 70s type of music and even sings along with it plus the television sounds you can't turn off because everyone's watching plus the mosquitos that bite your feet and legs plus the frequent call of your grandma to get her a cup of water or requests for some milk and some biscuit or bread.

5. And when you finished your work on the TGS, your write ups for the publication and blog, your mother's requests and your sisters summary of an editorial, you'd want to dose off seeing the time ticks 1am in the morning but when you turn your freaking head on the kitchen, your eyes go wide discovering the dishes weren't washed yet.

Do these seem mess you up? - whew -

I am not angry nor pissed with the people who made these things happen because they're also human beings - my family is group of homo sapiens with built-in imperfections. What spoils me so much are the situations.

One thing I realized? God gives the toughest test!

I hope, I can overcome these things as part of my daily responsbility here in our house and with my family.

Still, all things work for a purpose.

Good blog. Sounds like you need a berak from everything. I too have a younger sister and a nagging mom. Luckily my grandmother lives with my grandfather and I dont have to put up with that. Great blog and awesome title.
