IYC #6 (If you Could)

If you could outgrow one responsibility what would it be???

[FirstDaughterDiaries @FDaughterDiary]

One thing about me?
If I have to repeat myself more than twice, my spirit leaves my body

[FirstDaughterDiaries @FDaughterDiary]

One thing about me?
I can smell poor planning and poor decisions from a mile away.

[FirstDaughterDiaries @FDaughterDiary]

One thing about me?
I’ll act calm but internally I’ve already prepared 6 backup plans.

[FirstDaughterDiaries @FDaughterDiary]

One thing about me?
I don’t mind helping.
I mind being EXPECTED to help

[FirstDaughterDiaries @FDaughterDiary]

One thing about me?
I’ll say “I’m not getting involved” and somehow still end up solving the problem 💀

[FirstDaughterDiaries @FDaughterDiary]

One thing about me?
I’m not controlling… I just prefer things done properly

[FirstDaughterDiaries @FDaughterDiary]

I love peace but somehow chaos keeps applying for a position in my life

[FirstDaughterDiaries @FDaughterDiary]

At some point we need to normalize:
“Unfortunately, that sounds like a YOU problem.”

[FirstDaughterDiaries @FDaughterDiary]

Nothing annoys me more than people waiting until the last minute and now suddenly it’s MY emergency.

[FirstDaughterDiaries @FDaughterDiary]

Brother, where was this energy 5 business days ago? because why is your lack of planning trying to become my stress???

[FirstDaughterDiaries @FDaughterDiary]

I especially love the fake urgency.
“Please I need help ASAP”

[FirstDaughterDiaries @FDaughterDiary]

Being reliable is exhausting because now everybody thinks you’re available 24/7.

[FirstDaughterDiaries @FDaughterDiary]

My toxic trait?
Thinking if I don’t do it, it won’t be done properly 💀

IYC #5 (If you Could)

If you could ask your parents ONE brutally honest question… what are you asking?

[FirstDaughterDiaries @FDaughterDiary]

IYC #4 (If you Could)

If you could make everybody appreciate one thing you do… what would it be?

[FirstDaughterDiaries @FDaughterDiary]

The moment she starts asking clarifying questions instead of arguing…
just know she’s trying VERY hard to keep it calm and respect you 😂

[FirstDaughterDiaries @FDaughterDiary]

Once she asks you these 3 questions…
just know you’re not making sense 😭

🧵

[FirstDaughterDiaries @FDaughterDiary]

3. “Does that even make sense to you?”

Yeah… it’s over.
She’s no longer arguing.
She’s questioning your critical thinking skills 💀

[FirstDaughterDiaries @FDaughterDiary]

2. “And your point is…?”

Congratulations.
You’ve officially lost the plot.
Either you’re taking too long to say something or you’re talking just to talk

[FirstDaughterDiaries @FDaughterDiary]

1. “So let me understand…”

Oh yeah.
Pack it up.
Because now it seems you don’t understand what you’re saying
