I am reading a Bangla novel after a very long time. Probably been a year! It's just that, I usually prefer Humayun Ahmed's novel than other writers in our literature and since he died, I kind of stopped reading. I went on buying English novels and thought they were great. So Mysha came few weeks back and she gave me Misir Alir Omnibash, and basically she made me read it. So yeah I just realized how much I missed the suspense stories of Misir Ali. They're so great!! Loving it!

These days, I am feeling like I am waiting for something. I don't have any idea why, like in almost 25 days my Varsity life will start, and I won't have time for myself again. I won't be able to read novels again, I won't be thinking so leisurely or be quietly sitting in the veranda, watching and hearing birds. I'll have failures again, I always think of the worst situations. But there's this tiny hope that I won't turn out a shitty student with a shitty grade. But there will be pressure. No matter what, I will have to get a scholarship and do you know, I had never achieved a scholarship in my life, I've always been an average student. So this is a challenge for me and I am kind of worried about it. For my parents expect that highly of me, I don't wanna let them down. I'll feel bad if I do. I have already done it twice. SO I can't let it happen again for the third time. 

I don't have a clue what is happening inside of my mind. I don't know if I am happy at this moment. Or sad. Like I always know what I am feeling.But these days, I don't keep myself posted of how am I doing. They say, All girls have bipolar tendencies. One moment they're laughing and then they are in tears again. I don't know what emotions I am keeping inside nowadays. Am I happy? Satisfied? Now satisfied is a word I don't wanna use because that is like a word from a fairy tale. I am not even a specialist of my mental health but I am often aware whatever goes in my head.But these days I am unconscious of my core self, not much happening out there. Apparently my mind is a blue calm sea. And not sure if I am liking it. I've become quiet in sort and lazier than I was, only lazier in sense. I find no motivation to do anything, sorely because of my zero accomplishments, maybe I am giving myself a sort of punishment. Subconsciously being unconscious. There. Like all other times I finally have managed to update myself of my current state of mind.

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...
