confession #93

SO this year started off without my sister and I was pretty much over the fact until we encountered the last time, when she hugged me so tight and kissed both my cheeks and almost the corner of my lips. I was like..."Look at us. We've almost lip-kissed." And the work there was done, I got to see her precious smile, a smile which I had been craving for weeks. It made me realize, how much I missed her all these days.  You know this isn't how I planned 2015 would go.
Mama took us for a family trip the other day. A trip without Api. Does it sound any fun? All I could think about in the car was the last year's trip we had with api and I couldn't hold my tears falling down my cheeks.I don't think I'd ever have fun without her being with me every where I go. She was the one, the only one who understood every little piece of me.The one whose sweet interruption while taking selfies never bothered me a bit. I thought today, we'd get to meet, because Mama was supposed to take us all to dinner. But now it got cancelled because of the strike. I don't know when I'd be seeing her again. So this is how my new year's going.

Yesterday, Mama encouraged me to giving SAT and he showed me couple of college reviews and requirements on web. He asked me if I do any extra-curricular activities, I gave him a straight NO. But he really tried to give me courage and said if I had any hobbies or so, it could help getting scholarship. I said I do blog sometimes.And he asked me what I write about. I don't know why, but my mind went all blank. I could've said, I don't write on any particular subject, I write my innermost feelings, and it's kind of pointless to refer it to an extra-curricular activity. He told me to try for the colleges in Seattle. So nice of him to think that I could pull it off.
Right now, my goal is to take care of HSC. Because those shitty marks on practice tests ain't gonna get me an A+. Apparently,studying abroad is just a daydream of mine.

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.

long distance again

 I came back from my trip. It was amazing 2 weeks of my life. Seeing him again after so long felt strange yet peaceful. I finally got to be in his arms again. 2 weeks flew by and now I am back home and back to work and normal hustle and bustle of life.  He got an extension offer and decided to stay for another 3 months. It is sad because he was supposed to be back next month. He asked me if he should take it and despite having my heart aching I supported him in the decision. It is not confirmed yet but he probably be staying another 3. Another 5 months of long distance. How am I going to survive the winter by myself? I don't know. Honestly, in my heart, I don't care about how much compensation he be getting. I miss him so much and this long distance thing is killing me inside. Today is Friday night and instead of cuddles and movie, I am home alone. No plans to look forward. No one to talk to. I am the loneliest girl on earth right now. He is probably sleeping and not picking u...

winter together

 Dear B,  Sorry I've been so MIA. Here's the update you missed - My husband came back! He wasn't approved for those 3 months of extension. I've been getting enough cuddles and kisses to survive this winter.  Yes, winter is here. Never underestimate the Canadian winter. It's the worst. Everything is grey and dark. However, I am looking forward to going home in March. I'm so excited to see my friends again. Most importantly my parents and brother. It feels a strange kind of feeling. I am planning to 'visit' the place I was born and call home. It is definitely a new kind of feeling.  Things been okay. We are okay. I am glad to have him back.  We bought a new couch and a coffee table. It's still in back order and I'm impatiently waiting for them to arrive.  Can't believe only 4 days left to 2026. Time is flying so quick. Hope we talk again, B. I swear I missed you!
