confession #94

Home alone is the ultimate peace.

Yesterday Mama's (My uncle.)flight took off. My sister came to visit and we kind of spent the whole day together.She dinnered with us and left at the evening with her husband, deserting our house.
When Mama was leaving for the airport,we three hugged him,said our goodbyes and my mom cried a little.It felt a little odd, because until when Mama was here, this place didn't seem so...vacant. I can't believe I'm actually missing him right now, although he stayed for like what, a month or so?. I've got really fond of him in just a couple of weeks. I wonder what would it be like when Nanu's gonna leave. This place is already so empty without Api.

Anyways so today, they're all off to a relative's house, leaving me home alone and blissfully happy. I got the room to myself, turned on some instrumental music from Relaxing Channel on youtube, already bathed and I am wearing Nanu's Jasmine perfume..it's soothing, I found it in the sink while she's not here to question me right now.I am just cherishing these rare moments. I had grilled duck for lunch that my mom cooked for me. Very spicy. Oh and mashed potatoes. Heaven food. Right now I'm gonna tell bua to serve me up some tea, I am feeling too relaxed, I might fall asleep anytime. This music is so relaxing...

I woke up at 11 am today, had breakfast. Then sat before the pc and started browsing. I watched couple of make up tutorials on youtube today. I have the elf eye product that Mami gifted me so I wanted to try it out. I was like, how hard could it be to put on eye shadows? Yeah well, seeing all those tutorials kind of broke my self-esteem. But I like watching Bethany Mota, she's fucking creative, for her videos are not only about makeups or outfits, I like her DIY's. Those are pretty cool.Although I never tried anything, but watching them is really fun.

Now I am gonna read Fifty Shades Freed. I think Fifty Shades Darker was much more interesting than the two. Anyway so, I'll have my steamy hot tea, and then I'll be under my quilt to do some reading. I'd love some cozy afternoon.

world war?

 Dear B,  I don't watch the news but there has been a lot of speculations on social media of a possible world war III. My sister just texted me that I should save up money as we don't know what that might do to the economy. It is ironic because I just ordered something online last night. Every time I go out, I spend. I don't even have a good paying job and I spend like I have full time. However, one thing I learned from my past is that there is no point in stressing about the future. What I have control over is now. I can either live in the moment or ruin it by ruminating and what good will it bring to my life? Living alone can get boring. However, I am trying to find things to do. Maybe I will visit a bookstore today. Lets see.  I have rearranged the furnitures yesterday. Cleaned as well. The place looks good.  Maybe I will go IKEA. I love it there. Even though I can't afford furnitures, I just enjoy looking at them. Oh what to tell you B. My in-laws are coming this...

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...

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...
