Just an update

Hi y’all,

I know a post have been long due. That is because I was fighting with Google.

So what happened in the 10 months?



University of Texas at Dallas is a little less cool because I am still in Toronto. I have decided to put the whole graduate school thing on hold for another year. I think I am only one who will be writing a letter to the Dean of Admissions stating that I am respectfully declining my admission offer without another better offer to another university. The reason being, I like the privileges and comfort my parents’ give me, and I want to work/intern somewhere before applying back to graduate school. Make my resume stronger.

I finally went to Saudi Arabia and it wasn’t so bad. The flight to Jeddah killed me. I mean I was sleep deprived from exams and the sits was very uncomfortable. And on top that creepy uncle set next to me (what a surprise, I mean do a have track record for attracting creeps). But in Jeddah I did not feel any of that “restriction” nonsense. I mean I am not allowed to go anywhere alone or without a car in Bangladesh. It  was pretty much the same but only better cause guys did not try to grab your ass as you walk down the streets. Wearing a burka wasn’t that bad either. I mean I went with a mentality, when in Rome do what the Romans do.

Umrah was a life changing experience. It was extremely spiritual, and never felt so at peace both mentally and physical while I was at Mecca. Things that I only heard about or read in religion classes actually exist. Highly recommend it to anyone who has the chance.

My sister got a cat. Her name is kitty (Yes how creative! I was voting for Fanta, but NO!).  But Kitty is the most adorable thing is the whole world. Follows you everywhere you go, even into the washroom. If you don’t let her in, she just sits in front of the door and screams (AKA meowing) until you let her in. So I guess I am a cat lover now. If you really know me, you must have heard about my theory that I have a thing for guys who have cats (every single guy that I dated since 14 has/had a cat – don’t ask! Weird coincidence) a billion times. So I can’t categories them as crazy cat people anymore. Cause I am one of them now!

I did the 30 days photo challenge on Facebook and was the only one among my friends to finish it! It is a lot harder than it looks. Finding memories that is specific to thats task is very hard.

Found Moksha Yoga and LOVE IT!!!

Few of my friends got married. Yes I really don’t understand this phase or whatever. People are busy getting married and I am just busy planning my career.

Trying something new: coloured contacts.

Still love Rob Pattinson.

I don’t drink Starbucks coffee every day or coffee for that matter. Yes I know what I surprise! That is because it is very inconvenient for me to get it on my way to school now. So all the Yorkies who thought I am a coffee addict see I AM NOT!

I actually went to a sport game! Yes me! Who doesn’t understand anything! Baseball, tennis, and basketball! But hey, it’s a great conversation starters with boys. "So please explain....."

Academic life still trumps social life. Still have been a lot kissing frogs. So let’s pray that both of this scenarios change this year. After all, it’s also a new decade.

Love love

Kiss kiss
