I secretly check on him sometimes. He is in my stalking list. I clear my search history as if somebody's gonna find out. And figure out how desperate I am. I don't want that to happen, ever. It is already painful knowing, I still have feelings for him. Well, not "feelings" per se. It is rather just a fascination. Have you ever been fascinated by someone? Like really really fascinated of what their preferences are, how they live their lives? Yeah. I am sort of in that situation here.

I should be doing my searches on people who would actually like to be with me. Not the people I have crush on...There was this guy, I chatted with months ago, he wanted to start something but I barely replied his texts. We are just friends on facebook now and instagram of course. Today, he posted a photo. He was on a date with a girl. I wish I felt a little bit jealous. But I didn't. I felt happy that he finally found someone who would go out with him. Because I was worried all this time that I might have kept him hanging.

I have been watching old romantic films a lot. Just finished up You've got mail. Have you ever like secretly wished to be in a love story? Yeah a story. A story you could tell your friends with enchanted eyes...A perfect cooked up story. And your friends would say, AWW YOU TWO ARE SO CUTE

I had a sleepover with my cousin. She is like madly in love for a year now. And she tells me how he wants to marry her if she just says so. She is too young to marry now but she surely thinks of him as her future. I wondered while listening to her...Is it that easy? To find someone online and meet him and everything fits in like Cinderella's glass slipper?

Sometimes I feel like I have been too lonely. Too lonely to enjoy the greatness the world has to offer. Like I can tell. When you're with someone you love, every little thing amplifies. The joy, the laughter. And the sadness they get shared. I really wish on this days. To meet someone. To be in love. I know I am being a bit delusional but don't you see, we were never on this earth, sent to be alone. We were supposed to meet our missing piece(s). 

Not everybody wants to have same old boring structurally functioning other half. What would hurt to have a wonderful, full of magic, exciting company? Like the ones in the movies. People have that, don't they? Yeah it gets boring and difficult sometimes, they do have their moments like that and they surely cherish it, right?

Real life is, I know, on the verge of destruction. There is a certain rate of depreciation. And there is an unavoidable end. But what I am asking for, is a short but wonderful interval. That I could look back to and smile unknowingly. 

Okay enough movie talk. 

Merry Late Christmas. Happy holidays. Advanced happy new year.

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...

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.

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...
