confession #103

Nanu might be leaving for America on the second week of February. I nearly did a victory dance! I am a selfish grand-daughter...*chuckles*. I simply can't just let her be a part of my every day post.  Let's talk on a very different subject.

I feel so lonely these days. My friends are super busy with studies and all. Api had deserted me. And trust me, my mom isn't the right person to talk to. She screams the hell outta me. And nanu- okay.  the previous post I made it pretty clear how I feel about her. My brother literally is a non-existent, buried in his computer programming skills. And my dad is very motivational, my favorite person to talk to when I die in boredom but let's be honest -I need a galpal.

So most of my time are spent on stalking people on internet. I don't actually stalk, I simply investigate. And it's super fun. I almost have known the lives of these people, sometimes I feel like I know them from heart to heart. You know not in just photos or videos or status, I feel like I know them in person.But they are completely unaware of my stalking tendencies. That's the fun part. I don't leave any kind of sign, I don't comment, I don't give away anything that could hold the thought that I stalk them. OMG Thank god it's just internet. But I think it's an amazing gift I have it in here. someone should hire me as their spy.SWAG.

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...

spring is almost here

Hi B,  Season is changing. The hard days are almost over.  The city I live in has turned so beautiful, I get overwhelmed by the beauty.  Tulips are in. Cherry blossoms are blossoming.  Magnolia, Beautiful white flowers, name unknown to me.  Taking a walk out feels like a celebration of life.  It feels like I'm falling in love with the city.  I remember when I first moved here 2 years ago, the excitement and the crippling anxiety of starting a new life from scratch. Now, after 2 years, I feel a warmth and love for the place.  I don't know if I would feel the same when the winter comes though. Seasonal depression is no joke.  My new mantra for life now is to chill.  Praise the nature and find pretty little corners in the city.  Write poems.  Paint, maybe.  Seek positivity.  Love. Be kind to self. No rush. Read books. Just flow.

healing in progress

 Dear B,  What I learned from the past week is that I tend to take on grief from others in my family like my own. Even though there is nothing I can do about it to ease other's pain. Hence, I suffer internally.  There is a song that I deeply connect with:  Tu Jhoom | Naseebo Lal x Abida Parveen. It kind of goes like this: “What is meant to be yours will find you through any excuse. My heart, understand that there is nothing in your control. You just swirl (let it go)” My brother recently got rejected from a marriage proposal from a girl he really liked. It was arranged but this was his first experience talking with a girl. Seeing him being torn left me in tears as I know how much he was hurting. He is such a gentle soul. I took his pain as if my own and could not sleep at night. Nothing I say could ease his suffering but I still tried to cheer him up. I prayed genuinely for him to be showered with blessings. I want him to experience life, be with someone who would ca...
