whoever invented multitasking should drop dead.
i was trying to so hard to write last night but there was just too many tiny distractions:
- my allergies
- chat boxes
- full screen video chat (shoutout: googletalk video chat is kick ass!)
- how i met your mother season 5 episode 4
- fringe season 2 episode 4 and 5
- joshua jackson
- googling joshua jackson
- the way i am by ingrid michealson playing in youtube
- my painfully long hair
- learning the dance steps of the 'say a little prayer' segment from Glee
anyway...
i've been surprisingly more productive the last couple of days. maybe because my team is finally getting some kind of direction. or...maybe its the less traumatizing client meetings....or....maybe it's a PMS thing...who knows. it's still a good sign, right?
when i was younger, i can multitask like hell. i don't quite remember where the motivation comes from, though, but juggling multiple tasks was like a breeze. it feels different when you start working. maybe because, back then, it was something i do to simply go the extra mile with whatever i want to accomplish. it's like ice cream in your halo-halo. or a ribbon in a gift package. or an ice cream sundae with joshua jackson on top. it's nice to have...but it is not required. but as you grow older and supposedly become more responsible career-wise, multitasking should be second nature. it is expected from you. it is mandatory.
ok i'm being whiny again.

I still multitask. But that's mainly because I purposefully create my own distractions so I am always sane enough. :P In some ways, that could be seen as good. In some ways, it could be seen as bad.
Anyway, whether you can multitask or not is a matter of what you'd like to do. Some people say it's a matter of organizing tasks. You could do one task at a time, if you take the time and discipline yourself well enough.
Unfortunately, I can't. I have to look for my own style of dealing with things. If you feel the pressure of multitasking too, we might be having similar issues. Good luck to us.
