Before this residential semester happened, I was in fear of getting apart with my friends, mostly Turtle Dove, not that we were close in the first place, we were both annoyingly nice with each other, that means there were not so much real friendship going on. But she was always there for me, and  I too. So I felt secure. But after this semester, you can say my fear came true, I just figured out her more and more and I have to say this, though it is judgmental of me, still. She fakes a lot. I knew that. And I liked that when she did it with other people, it helps keeping her connected with them, but I personally hate that when she fakes with me. Because I am real with her. I considered her as one of my best friend, all this time, because with her I can be who I am, but now I realized some things about her that is making me keep a distance.One thing I already mentioned. Other things are- She is a happiness sucker. She whines a lot. Which I do too but not all my conversation are about me having a crappy day/life. But when things go out of the way she planned it, she just whines and whines and I get really annoyed at it because I don't want all these negative vibes. Secondly, I feel it is important for her to be seen with friends who are most likely beautiful or interesting, you know. Sometimes I feel, she wants to control what I say in front of everybody(Her OTHER friends) Because she seem to be ashamed of being with me, I don't know if it's true but I feel like she takes superiority and expect nothing of me, or just have lower expectations of me.

I just hate when I have to climb up a line of expectation to earn friendship. So it is just a let down. I liked Turtle Dove, she is compassionate, warm and chatty and everything, I don't hate her, I still like her but I feel sorry that our friendship turned out like this. I have advising of course on 1st sept and a part of me wants separate sections. I know, it will only make me feel lonely and with new faces I will feel insecure but sometimes, I just want to ignore her company. And I know I am not her priority, or ever will be, she has some new friends entering her life now, so I know, slowly, we are getting apart. Our friendship isn't that strong to take the blow. I know that very well.

And I wish her best in life. Even though she doesn't even think about me often. I am just a background check, that she has by her side whenever everyone is busy. And I just realized that and it made me sad how she is just driving away from me.

I hate when friends become strangers. I passionately hate that.

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...
