I am in a position where I can write independently and forever about almost anything. I could write a fucking novel about my lazy ass. But I choose not to. Just because I have a laptop and my own personal space doesn't mean I have to write a biography of how many times I screwed up. That won't make any sense. My whole life, I am not making any sense.

Anyway, so the morning, dare I say afternoon started with a weird pain in my left knee.It's still paining right now and I almost can't move. It's one thing when both of your legs are mysteriously paining, but mine's just one and  I am starting to feel like I am a one legged person. I can't walk looking like a complete looser now, can't sit without flinching.

Evening spent watching Bridget Jones's Diary both the sequels with Mysha on couch with blankets, tea and dry snacks. I recommended the movies, I watched them once myself when my HSC exams were over and thought right away, I would watch them second time with her. Mysha is a person I can completely be myself with. Even when she judges, she genuinely does, she's never a critic tho. I love to have her as my sibling, and no matter how young she is, she never fails to impress me. And the internet is our oyster. 

Then I had dinner and telling everyone that I am in pain. They blamed it on my sleeping for abnormal hours and not doing exercise. And how pathetic my lifestyle is.

Do you people have any idea why I am sleeping like crazy and skipping breakfast... Why I walk while I eat? Why I dance like a freak, literally a freak every evening, well not today I'm in pain. What else can I do to burn calories? I only eat two times a day, I do dinner with bread, no rice and look I am already running out of vitamins. Calcium. My knee is sick. I hate exercise, I always danced it off, in my room, when I had a room.

Now I don't dance and sing anymore, basically I hate how I am living. Like a dead fish. Just going with the flow.

Today is perfect for wearing socks and snuggling up in a couch for a chic flick movie. But my feet has frozen, the pain increased and I don't know why I'm so annoyed at the weather. Probably because I smell, because I didn't bath today and because I've been sitting and lying all day on couch, no actual work out. I'm seriously wasting myself too much. I should do yoga or something. Waking up in the mornings is so brutal these days I can't even face it.

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...
