So this is a post about if YOU like multitasking, or doing things one by one.

I like multitasking.

I like to do things one by one because I don't want to over stimulate myself. I have a very fragile mind.

I brush my teeth in the shower sometimes. I guess I like to multitask, but I think most of the time I do it without noticing.

I usually don't multitask because I want to give my full attention to stuff I am working on. And when I do try to multitask I often miss stuff in both tasks.

I can multi-task, but I do it unconsciously. I prefer attacking one task at a time, though.

When no one's home, I sit on the toilet, with my laptop, watching TV. That's my multitasking. Though if someone comes home, I have explaining to do.

I work fairly well while multi-tasking, but that said, I try not to as I end up screwing up more that way.

I usually do things one by one. If i get frustrated with too many things at once i get extremely severe migrains that last for days.

Does daydreaming while you're doing something count as multitasking? Because if so, I multitask a lot. Besides that though, I really don't like multitasking. I can multitask, but I'd rather be focused on one thing, then move to whatever I want to do next and focus on that thing. I don't like multitasking because it doesn't allow me to focus as much on tasks that I deem important. If I don't think it's important or if I find it easy, (like eating, anything bathroom related, often walking, sometimes school...) I'll space out and daydream the entire time. Occasionally coming back to reality to make sure I'm not messing up.

I prefer doing things one at a time. I really only multitask while cooking, or cleaning. I found that trying to do too many things at once can have bad results.

When no one's home, I sit on the toilet, with my laptop, watching TV.


You've got a TV in your bathroom?

i think he meant tv in his laptop. but i doubt that counts as multitasking more then it is to breath/eat chips while sitting on the sopha watching tv.

unless of course... its not REALLY tv... :3

yeah, so some things i do:

-watching an epic movie while sub-consciously typing this
-watching tv while writing a 500-word essay from start - finish thats due the next day (bad procrastination)
-sleeping on the school bus in the morning while everyone on my bus is screaming their heads out (i can somehow drain out the noise)

My weirdest one : before i tell u, u should know it was during night at 10:00 p.m. U.S., but at where i was at before, it was 4:00 in the morning. + i didnt get any sleep on the plane... Ans, the day before i woke on 3:00 in the morning and didnt sleep till

Anyway....

- Walking up the stairs from the airport, when all of a sudden im dreaming while walking up the stairs. i go to to my bathroom, brush my teeth then wake up...
