Dear B,

Wifi is the devil. It keeps me awake. I could have been sleeping now. I picked up a new and normal pattern of sleeping, though not so sure of it being sustainable. It is 1.14 am now, and I will in half an hour force myself to bed because that is the only way I know now keeps me calm, in the morning, at classes.

I don't know why I had to get emotionally invested in everything. Who's dating who, or who's judging me and what not. I have started( It has been what? 3 days since? I feel like I've been through a lot lol) Yes I have started to ignore every person that made me feel shittier that day. I spoke to singer guy only when it was necessary, he casts me unfriendly stares and I can 100 percent bet on how he underestimates my abilities and that's like a story I am not in the mood to tell you. You know one thing- When you feel like you have to prove your worth to someone, just absolutely and utterly walk away. I no longer hold any grudges against them/him. I just act like I don't bother what they think of me anymore. That made me look a little- umm...quiet person, but it's okay because I still talk to those people who make me laugh and feel like it is worth ignoring who don't.

Priorities. I have to follow on that.

So last Sunday, we went to this art exhibition, all together and it felt good, I got home after seven pm and my dad had to pick me up where Nabs dropped me as I had to take a lift = our driver wasn't available don't know why I am giving you so much detail. Anyway, so those ten mins way to my home, I walked with my father and I don't know for some reason he held my hand so tight, like clasping it almost and I felt so safe. I felt like nothing can harm me, sadden me as long as I have my father by my side, guiding me through the darkness.

I've been underestimated by my male friends, quite often I find them teasing how immature I act sometimes, How I belong not here, how in future I will get tricked by employees and be scolded by my boss. They might not say this things and mean it but god what those words do to my head. I feel like proving them wrong, working hard on myself, and I feel so small when they everyday taunt me about how I am...not mature and outspoken. My insecurities haunt me every second I live, I am awake but when I am pointed out something is wrong about me, I get more panicked about myself, my future and everything just starts to....fall into depression.

But you know what? I am not going to waste my precious weeks on things that won't matter ahead. I have to overlook this silly and stupid words they speak and think about me. I have to wake up strong and prove them all wrong. So yeah, I am quite okay right now.No time for shedding tears just like that.
Thanks to someone for making me realize this.

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...
