Today.

Last few days were well spent. Cause my sister came to stay with us for two days. Just two days it were and it made me so happy. We had so much fun. She waxed my left feet(because this was my first time in waxing so she helped) But I'm too lazy to do the other one. So literally, my left feet is waxed cleaned and my right one is hairy. I really don't care. Who gonna see it anyway.
Yesterday, Mysha came. She stayed for a while because I told her my next exam is 8 days away. And we watched youtube videos and had a great time. I played her Damons by Imagine Dragons and told her it was Fariha's favorite song. She was like - "Ai gan ta onek soft, Amar Thash Thash gaan vallage." -I love the way she talks. She had me at her humor. If I were a lesbian I would pick her as my wife, she's so cute and funny. Who am I kidding. Lesbians pick lesbians. If I were a lesbian I would want her to be one as well so I could marry her. Now I sound like LESBIAN. I hope my family don't read this diary. What will they think of me, eww. They'll probably get worried. When they worry they get bossy. My father, for example. He's super worried about my tests and that I sleep half of the time. So he often goes like - "Study on that table. NOW." I find it annoying. I'm not even near to the mood to study. My exam is almost 7 days away.
The reason I'm writing this diary at my "no touching books" day because I'm wearing a face-pack. And I can't instagram now because my phone is dead. So I just thought why not invest this time on some important work. Writing a journal has its beneficial ways I tell you-such as-
1. What if I get Alzheimer's and forget who I was? This diary would help me.
2. It helps me sooth my hand writing, makes me aware of my spelling mistakes so, why not?

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...
