So right at this moment I am having a box of ice-cream to reduce my grief- that I myself created in the first place.
Lately, I've been wondering, where my self-esteem at?  I have been forcing myself to like a guy just because he was first saying sweet cheesy romantic things to me and made me feel special and I ended up hugging him when saying goodbye. To make one thing clearer- Hugging or being even slightly close to guys is taboo in our family. If I see from my family's perspective- I have done a whore-able thing.
I don't know if I am one of those girls, whose only thing in life is thinking about men. I don't know if I am turning out to be one. Because honestly I've been feeling so alone and horny-I didn't want to use this word in my blog but what the hell, I am one honest person here. Yes I sometimes, imagine making out with him. It's normal I guess. But the problem is, I don't see us working out. I am basically a mute person around boys, despite that I tried talking to him and I found that we don't much make sense. He doesn't make me laugh harder, or I don't enlighten him much. Our conversations usually don't have the spark. I mean I feel like that. I bet he does it too. But...Oh there goes my self-esteem, despite that I tried having a conversation, tried to make him feel like I listen to him, I care what he has to say. Pathetic. I know. So basically, we are that much bored of our single life.

Then there is another thing. I've been questioning all my life choices lately. Staying home is the ultimate trouble. You let your mind take over you. I hate alone time now. My mind has noises. It doesn't calm.

Speaking of lower self-esteem, I've been also thinking- will I ever find someone who I deserve truly?

I just don't understand other humans, to tell you the truth. They are so complex. I wish I could find someone who could understand me, whom I could understand mutually. It's just. I know this post seems hormonal and all but trust me I didn't know myself to be this cheap. I haven't stood up to my values that my father and mother taught. Tell you the truth- I have always disrespected those values. I always wished to flee from all the restrictions they placed before me. But I also feel this guilt that- I've rushed into things. I haven't set my priorities straight.

I still have time to fix this. I am damn sure, this guy doesn't feel so strongly about me. So all I have to do is let go. Let past be a past. I don't need his attention. I don't need him to prove my worth.

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...
