I stormed out of home yesterday around evening time, got in an ugly fight with my parents. 
Basically, I am getting my puberty driven repulsiveness and rebel like attitude at the age of 24. As much as it hurts to say this, I told them to reject the identity of me being their daughter and I also said (out of rage) that I don't count them as my parents anymore. My father is no longer talking with me, when I am spoken to, he is rather passive aggressive with me.

Hear me out, I have no intention to hurt them as much they intend to hurt me, or even identify their actions as 'hurtful' or even empathize toward the fact that- I am hurting being isolated from my friends/cousins, the fact that I have no social life. Their main concern is- NOT just the virus, but the fact that I may date a guy or meet a guy and do stuff- and frankly, I am not in the mood for dating now. Even if I do meet a guy- What is the harm? Why are they against me having a 'life'?

Why this people's opinion in the society means so much to them, when in all honesty, I should come first- my opinions, my matters should come first as I am their daughter. I was so hurt by the accusations my mom made toward me. I can't change their mentality or make them open minded people. But I expected the least- which was for them to allow me to let me meet my cousins/friends. When they know this will make me happy- they don't care the least about my happiness or mental health. They want their own way. For them to showcase to people how perfect our family is. Whereas it is utterly dysfunctional. And I am more and more trying to get myself unattached from this. 

I want to live away from this hurtful environment.

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...
