Oh my god. So this is actually happening. I am turning 20 today and from now on I am no longer to be called a teenager. That sucks. I haven't accomplished anything yet. Looking at my life now, I am quite unhappy.

Whatever. Age is just a number. I am mentally sixteen, dependent, don't have a job yet, haven't traveled rest of the world yet, haven't been in a relationship and oh my god. I don't know how to drive. how to swim. Never rode an airplane. My life's been so pointless. I haven't even done anything for anyone. Am I still going to be like this next year? Or this is what my life would look like til I die. No. I am sorry I know this is depressing, I shouldn't say these things.

I am 20. I am alive. I am thankful. For everything. My family. My old friends. My new friends. Thank you Allah.

I realized I don't have anyone who could loathe me you know. Say that "I knew that girl. She's a complete bitch." Everyone thinks I am so nice. Which is nice. But you know, sometimes you're your own critique. I get really shocked when people say nice things about me. It really gets me like, DO I deserve that? Yeah  I know, stupid thought. Very people would say bad things to your face. But seriously sometimes I feel like I don't deserve all these compliments. Like when I am told I am pretty, I have a cute smile, I don't really believe it and make a face that the person who is complimenting me will never dare to compliment again. I get shy you can say. I don't believe I am that pretty to be told. Tell me I am smart. I'll be super happy.

So basically birthday wishes are making me awkward. People are telling me I am nice and stuff. I am not enjoying it. Oh and tomorrow, my mom has decided to celebrate my birthday. My cousins are coming and I invited turtle dove, she said she will come too. Tomorrow's gonna be amazing. I really want it to be amazing.

"Because nothing makes me happier and nothing makes me sadder than you.”

“If I had a camera," I said, "I'd take a picture of you every day. That way I'd remember how you looked every single day of your life." "I look exactly the same." "No, you don't. You're changing all the time. Every day a tiny bit. If I could, I'd keep a record of it all." "If you're so smart, how did I change today?" "You got a fraction of a millimeter taller, for one thing. Your hair grew a fraction of a millimeter longer. And your breasts grew a fraction of a—" "They did not!" "Yes, they did." "Did NOT." "Did too." "What else, you big pig?" "You got a little happier and also a little sadder." "Meaning they cancel out each other, leaving me exactly the same." "Not at all. The fact that you got a little happier today doesn't change the fact that you also become a little sadder. Every day you become a little more of both, which me...

 I am in luteal phase and everything my husband doing is irritating me.  It is all scientific I know but still everything is so annoying and I just wanted pizza. He ordered biryani.  I wanted to go on a date on valentines day. He brought me flowers, which was sweet but he forgot to book the restaurant and we ended up going costco instead. I just feel like I am wasting my best years on him. Is it normal to feel like that. We are almost 2 years into our married life and I already miss our initial chemistry. I feel like we are being like an old married couple. It shouldn't feel like that, right? I mean, it is still new; we aren't that old yet.  I feel so bored honestly, and disappointed.  Again, this could be because of my luteal phase.  I am sad too.  I wish, he made a little more effort to make me feel special. Make me feel deserving. I wish I didn't dress up to do our groceries on Valentines day. 

opposite sides of a coin

Hi B,  I've been sort of busy with the training for the job and have another interview coming tomorrow. I am torn between staying with the current job and switching or keeping both as part times. I don't know, I guess I will have a decision made if the interview goes well. I have been traveling far for the current one and every time I get on the bus or the the train I feel depression kicking in full force. Suddenly I remember home, the comfort of being around my loved ones, the easy life I once had back in Bangladesh. Certainly, there are things that weren't easy but I guess it felt easy because I was more used to it. Transport was rickshaw and didn't even think twice before booking an uber because I always had some money with me. Now I have literally 200 dollars to go by and I have to think twice to even buy a cup of coffee or a piece of bread. I guess with time, I will be able to save up some money. I am glad at least I got to start working. It is still very overwhelm...
