Hey B.

Woke up at 5 pm today...Slept at 6am. That exceeds ten hours of sleep.

I've grown custom to this abnormal routine. My attempt to wake up in the mornings has come to a bottomless pit. I just can't. I don't know. Maybe I am not that determined. But this is it. I should stop this thing. My grandma is coming this monday. And with her being in the house, I can't oversleep or stay awake at night. All my privacy will be hampered. All my freedoms would be cut down. Before that I have to get out from this reversed sleep cycle. Or I will struggle to be here at my own house. My habits I have to change before it is too late.

I am not proud of who I am. I never was. Big dreams ahead. Not statistically planned but god they're unreal. For me. I am not a hard worker. I have to go abroad in four years time, I have to. After I graduate I have to make sure I am not sitting around. Have to make sure I am not jobless. But look at me, I don't read newspaper I don't know what is going on at the other end of the world. If I have to succeed I have to be very aware of the current affairs. And of course I have to get good grades. There's still time. I have time for my salvation. I can still make it. I have to write my own future!

 There's no time for stupid shit. I am a grown up now. I can abstain from cruel energy if I want to. It just takes will to change. I have to change myself. It is urgent. Before it's too late. I must stop this. I must stop thinking about a tale that will never come true- I must stop thinking about him. He is never going to feel anything for me. I must stop fancying him and get on making my future a success. This is not my time to be lazy and spend it on daydreaming. Let's get strategic.


 So first thing I have to fix. Is my sleeping hours. I have to sleep 8 hours full at night and wake up in the morning at the same time everyday. Then I will do some exercises. Easy ones. And drink water. Have breakfast with egg. Then on weekends I will start by reading the newspaper and if I have class then get ready for class. Okay pay attention. On weekends I will study in the mornings. On a class day, I will pay attention to the class. Then after class  I will get home, shower have lunch and get to study again. Everyday reading newspaper or watching news is a must. Presentation skills. I have to work on that............................


So much so much to focus on. But let's do it slow and proper. No need to rush. step by step. I will report you about my everyday mini accomplishments.

First thing now- I have to organize my closet. Clear the mess. Donate some clothes. Make my bed...Then study. Yes.

Wish me luck!

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...
