Focus and Prioritize

As I woke up this morning, I thought of something that would help me get better this coming semester and that is to focus and prioritize things. I think I reached my limit this last semester. I was so drained physically, financially (broke as hell), emotionally and sometimes spiritually. I can't think of someone to blame for this but myself. I took a lot of responsibilities which I thought I could handle and manage at the same time but NOT. HAHA

So, the game plan for this season is to focus and prioritize and have lesser expectations (oh heavens above, please help me with this. Haha) This time I will not get any responsibilities anymore since I still have pending jobs that I have to finish: the BALAY 2013 Graduation Committee being the Secretary General of that organization and the Design Core being the Membership Committee Head. If there will be another project such as The Pirouette Movement, I will just be a responsible member. Ugh, being the Construction Committee Head at the same time is sooo tiring and required so much guts to get through this project. Limiting the responsibilities is good, sometimes at least you get to focus and prioritize things.

To avoid from being emotionally drained, I will raise no expectations to things or people. Well, this is my problem ever since but I know if I learn how to care for those whom I should really care about and if I frequent youth services and strengthen my personal relationship with God, I know I can make it. This could also serve as my remedy for the spiritual sickness I've gone trough this semester. However, I don't know how to give solution to my inability to answer my financial concerns. Maybe He can help me here as well. :)

To sum it up:

1. Eat what you can chew - Get no responsibilities and focus on what I have now. 
2. Raise no expectations.
3. A friend to all is a friend to no one - Have a genuine care for the people who deserve it. 
4. Go to youth services and talk to Him everyday. 
5. Give the love that your parents deserve. 
6. Spend more time with friends and with yourself. 
7. FOCUS AND PRIORITIZE
8. AND SING!!!! 

I know I can do this. Unting tiis na lang. 

Wag pilitin ang ayaw

Wag mong pilitin ang ayaw. May dahilan kung bakit ayaw ng isang tao o ayaw ng mundo ang gusto mo sanang mangyari. Minsan, dahil sa gusto mong masakatuparan ang iyong kagustuhan nakakaistorbo ka pa ng ibang tao oh di naman kaya'y nagagawa mo ang sa tingin mong hindi mo magagawa dati. 

Ang bottomline... Wag pilitin ang ayaw. Wag pagpilitan ang ayaw ng mundo at ng tao at wag ipagpilitan ang sarili sa mga taong hindi naman nakikita ang kahalagahan mo. Ito'y isang katotohanan na nararanasan ng bawat isa kaya huwag mag reak sa mga nakasulat dito. Hindi dahil nasulat ito ay may pinagdadaanan na ako ngayon. Meron man o wala, ito ay hindi mo maiiwasan. Kaya ngiti na lang. Haayaan mo siya/sila at ang mundo. Gawin mo na lang ang sa tingin mo makapagpapasaya sayo! 

At saka, ngumiti ka. Walang mawawala kung susubukan mo. Mas lalo pang lalapit sa iyo ang magandang enerhiya kapag nakangiti ka. :)

Basta, huwag pilitan ang ayaw at ngumiti na lang. :) :) :) 

Occasional conversation

I love it when you get to talk to a friend, changing ideas, perspectives and understanding things in life. Occasional conversation. 

I miss my friends. I miss the people who are close to me and I miss the feeling that you have friends around, ready to back you up. I miss the conversations I had with them even though the greatest contribution I can give or do is to listen. Well, the topics we usually talk about are socially relevant issues that I know they are experts of. I try to add insights but I let them do the talking since they're really good at it and saying what I know could mean the destruction of all. HAHA. These are the types of conversations I'd love to hear and go back to over and over again.

But you know what I like about having occasional conversations? The spontaneity and the feelings expressed  and shared without any or with less boundaries. It doesn't always have to be about social issues. Sometimes, your views in life and your experiences matter the most. Actually, I like that topic more as long as you share it with your 'friends' or with people you're trying to know more of (with a little holding-back since you are just starting to know them). I'm hoping to get a lot of this, especially now when I feel like I am on this (problems, issues) by myself. 

I don't want occasional conversation. I need them.
