Tomorrow is the big day. The more I tell myself not to think about it, I'm thinking about it. It's not going to be the end of me tho. I mean whatever grade I might get, I could eventually overcome it by passing the varsity test-the ticket to my desired road. So, I shouldn't actually get distracted by the result tomorrow even if I do well. This will not be the end of me like I said, there are many more exams to attend and results to receive in life and so this is just the beginning.

I guess I'm worried about disappointing my parents. I don't have much expectations, I know I can handle a bad grade or so. But the tension arises, when I have to face my parents. They have a group of families to tell my result to. And if I don't get an A+, they'd be ashamed in front of them all because of me. And I never want to deprive them of their comfort, their pride, their statuses. This is the scary part, I have no control over my results now, I did what I could in the exams and the results have already been checked and double checked so all we're left to do is to wait and see it unfolding in front of us tomorrow.

I'm missing Api. Today, when I put on her old slippers(That she no more uses) before leaving for coaching, I felt her beside me. As if she was telling me everything will turn out okay, I don't have to worry so much. It was good having her last time, when the ssc results came out you know. I was terrified the night before. She comforted me, like she always does, when I'm in a situation like this. She would say- "Been there done that!
Ask me. When I was your age,I used to have these vivid dreams about failing board exam. Happens. It's a world shared fear, and good students always underestimate themselves...You will get A+ puchi, this I know."

I at least had a support-system in the house if something went wrong.
 She's in a different house now and It doesn't feel the same. I'm missing her so much. How am I going to sleep tonight? It's nerve-wrecking! Tomorrow is the result of the final board-test! God knows if I have passed even?!

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!
