Why do we have to wait when technology rules this century? Why do we have to fucking wait in a fucking line, in a passport office and why are they so corrupted?

My family and I went to the passport office today, to get our passports renewed and never did I imagine they'd complicate such an easy process. And the place- it's booming with people, laborers and ladies wearing burkas all stitched up in one line, almost squished to the door and wow the staffs, all this time, I thought I was the laziest person on earth, always delaying on whatever task I'm given but no. There are far slower, lazier persons on earth and all of them work in the passport office of Bangladesh. Shocking as it is, they work smoothly without delay if payed, they speed up when they are handed extra cash. I hated every minute rather I say every fucking hour wasted standing there. They just linger for money. Aren't they payed already for doing this job, why they have to be so greedy?

When the procedure was over and the four of us could get out of that shit hole and get home, I sighed a relief that I don't have to go to that place again anymore not until my passport gets ready. But wow! My dad's one had a slight mistake as he received via sms from them just a moment ago, apparently he has to go through it all over again to fix it. I just feel bad for him. This isn't easy. It's not even suited for his health to stand in line for that long and I am just so pissed off right now. I hate this country, its people, everything about it just sucks.

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...

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...

"Because nothing makes me happier and nothing makes me sadder than you.”

“If I had a camera," I said, "I'd take a picture of you every day. That way I'd remember how you looked every single day of your life." "I look exactly the same." "No, you don't. You're changing all the time. Every day a tiny bit. If I could, I'd keep a record of it all." "If you're so smart, how did I change today?" "You got a fraction of a millimeter taller, for one thing. Your hair grew a fraction of a millimeter longer. And your breasts grew a fraction of a—" "They did not!" "Yes, they did." "Did NOT." "Did too." "What else, you big pig?" "You got a little happier and also a little sadder." "Meaning they cancel out each other, leaving me exactly the same." "Not at all. The fact that you got a little happier today doesn't change the fact that you also become a little sadder. Every day you become a little more of both, which me...
