I woke up at 5 pm today and my father forced me to do breakfast at 10 and let me go back to sleep again. Yesterday, I woke up at 7 at the evening. I can't leave my bed, I am that depressed.
I know it isn't solely about the guy I am not talking to. I have his number, I am aching to give him a call but I am resisting it. He is 42, that keeps ringing in my head when I think about calling him.

I woke up from a dream today. I was at BUP. It is the semi public university I once got accepted through written test but got sacked in viva. They didn't take me because my spoken English wasn't good enough. And I was a wreck at the interview. I was shaking and not answering their questions properly. If I studied there instead of Brac, my father would have to pay less than half the money he pays for my tuition fee. I never forgave myself for messing up the interview.

Guess now I see in my dream what my mind wants to see. SO the dream was, I was there, admitted on a second time basis, I was at the class and the teacher was awfully kind to me. I left Brac. That's all...Wish it was that easy.

Do I regret studying in Brac? That can be controversial. I am thankful for tarc, that place changed me in awful lot of ways, and the friends I got. I do regret not being a good student here. And the money my father spends on me. I feel like they're being wasted. If I were in BUP instead of here, maybe the only regret would be not getting close enough friends, because they have no tarc thing, (3 months in a residential campus) I wouldn't have found that strong of a bond by just attending classes with strangers, maybe I'd just be thankful for the cheap tuition fee that's all. And the fact that I was worth spending that little amount. I wouldn't care any less. Life would be different.

I'm thoroughly depressed. That dream made me realize that. This is why I can't leave my bed. I keep thinking if someone could understand what I am going through instead of scolding me for oversleeping and skipping breakfast and lunch. I know it would be extravagant to say that. But trust me, I feel like I have no control over what I am feeling. I feel like I will always be a failure to my parents and myself. Being depressed isn't something I do on purpose. It just lives with me. Whenever it sees a chance, it takes over my mind and just glues me to my bed. I feel tired doing nothing all day. I dream things from distant past, that still tortures me.

I think right now all I need is a good long shower. I smell. I didn't shower yesterday. I didn't shampoo my hair for 3 days. It stinks. I put on some hair oil. And then I came here to write so the oil sinks in. I can't shampoo right away, it won't have any benefit if I do. After I shower, I will sit with my management book. Study for the mid, at least try. I would have to force myself to sleep at night, because I have a class in the morning tomorrow, and I have to look fresh and motivated.

She couldn't sleep 
In fantasies deep
A hundred secrets to keep
She tossed and turned
She wrote her wishes
As the midnight
Oil burned

He wrote that for me. Gosh why am I going through our old messages. I can't be thinking about a guy who I didn't even meet in person. I can't be that desperate.

Everyone went to T's place today, I am seeing the snaps now. T told me to come. I made up an excuse. But seeing the snaps, I kind of feel like a left out. I could have gone. I should have left my bed and get dressed, I owed myself that. But I couldn't make up the courage to tell my mom that I wanna hangout. They don't like me hanging out with my friends much. They would say, Go study for a change. Besides I went out a lot this week, so I can use some time at home. I can really use that. Okay done with introverting for now. I gotta shower. Bye.

 Some thoughts. Our old generation glorified selfless acts to the point that they started calling putting themselves first as: 'selfish.'  To a certain period of time, I have also followed this pattern.  I thought taking care of me is selfish.  Where taking care of me is fundamental.  You cannot pour out of a cup, which is empty.  So pour yourself first.   I have to unlearn so many of these toxic patterns because these have made my life only miserable and problematic. I am learning that evolving is crucial for living with inner peace.  These days, I value so much about inner peace.  I'll choose it over others anytime, and it is not selfish. It is in fact for greater good.

An origin story

Dear Blog. Thank you for giving me space to write. Although in this world, where cloud technology prevails, there is no worrying about it. But hey,I, thank you for storing my thoughts. Stupid, meaningless thoughts. I assure you, I will keep coming back. I know since coming home from the residential semester, I've been a bit distracted. I've been posting things, I felt vague about. I used to write things effortlessly. I never forced myself to type up things, experiences or events. All these posts have been posted because they contributed to my daily life and I had to write them up before they slowly fade away from my memory. And some things I didn't make a post about as some things were better to be forgotten and removed from the past. Mind that. Dear Blog, I created you almost four years ago. These four years, I've kept you posted. Maybe some days. I didn't because you know why. Those days I felt blue and couldn't get up from bed. But you learned my stor...

spring is almost here

Hi B,  Season is changing. The hard days are almost over.  The city I live in has turned so beautiful, I get overwhelmed by the beauty.  Tulips are in. Cherry blossoms are blossoming.  Magnolia, Beautiful white flowers, name unknown to me.  Taking a walk out feels like a celebration of life.  It feels like I'm falling in love with the city.  I remember when I first moved here 2 years ago, the excitement and the crippling anxiety of starting a new life from scratch. Now, after 2 years, I feel a warmth and love for the place.  I don't know if I would feel the same when the winter comes though. Seasonal depression is no joke.  My new mantra for life now is to chill.  Praise the nature and find pretty little corners in the city.  Write poems.  Paint, maybe.  Seek positivity.  Love. Be kind to self. No rush. Read books. Just flow.
