Me: Really? When I checked my email for my package, it said it might be another day or two? I also checked the mail today so it wasn't in there
My mom: Look! *shows me the notification* What is it?
Me: I don't know
My mom: What do you mean you don't know?
Me: Mom, I got to get to the notification, it only says the tracking number, it could be anything
My mom: WHAT DO YOU MEAN ANYTHING? DID YOU EXPECT SOMETHING OR NOT?
Me: I got to click the tracking number to find out! You probably have something else on the way! I don't know until I click the tracking number!
My mom: HOW DO YOU NOT KNOW WHAT YOU ORDERED??

Today has been so mega stressful I just
Smacks head against wall
#Shima speaks#Okay. Okay okay okay storytime#SO as many of you know I bought a new car back in April. Almost May.#I didn't get the title registration card in the mail until like June#So I registered my car and bought the plates. 100% bought the plates I KNOW I bought the plates#Fast forward to now it is August and still no plates in the mail. No notification that they've been mailed or received or ANYTHING#SO I'm sitting here going hey where are my plates my temporary tags have expired on my car and I could get ticketed for that#I decide you know what I'll go to the DMV directly and get this sorted out. Fucking hate the DMV all my homies hate the DMV#But what can you do you know. Idk where the plates are.#I was very worried bc the mailroom in my apartment was broken into so somebody could have stolen the plates out of my mailbox#And I'd be none the wiser!! Bc I haven't received any sort of notification that they were delivered!#So I decide to go to the DMV right but my coworker tells me that they don't do walk ins anymore. They only see you by appointment#The next appointment wasn't available until August 22nd. LIKE. THREE WEEKS FROM NOW#So I book the appointment. And I send them an email going like hey uh I kinda need new temp tags while I'm waiting to be seen abt my plates#And they email me back going oh lol this is the wrong county you need to go to blah blah blah county office#So I'm like jesus christ okay I'll go to the correct county office. LUCKILY they have walkins so I drove over there today#I walked in and the girl working the customer service counter asks me what I need and I say hey I'm having issues getting my plates#I hand her my title registration card and she looks it up and goes oh lol we have your plates. They were returned#APPARENTLY they fucked up my address and didn't include the apartment number on the package so it got returned to them#SO THEY'VE JUST HAD MY FUCKING PLATES FOR A MONTH AND A HALF AND DIDN'T TELL ME. NO EMAIL NO PHONE CALL NOTHING IN THE MAIL#The girl goes into the back and grabs my plates. Thank god I finally have my fucking plates#LUCKILY I didn't actually have to wait in line she just grabbed them and I didn't need to get a ticket to see someone at the counter#But oh my god. SO fucking stressful dude.#I hate adulting <3#Also my computer had a hacking scare so there's that too#But that's a whole other can of worms#Lies down I'm fucking exhausted bro

Crazy.
How the world likes to play with us. Fate, destiny, whatever you call it. Whatever that makes things happen which are not in our control. Luck, in short.
Like I keep telling that I am not gonna like any normal girl. I am not gonna fall for ordinary. Not saying that it's not true or anything. It's just true for my sane part. I guess. But that human-animal part, it is out of control; it can't be ruled or be reasoned with. It's just weird, I don't understand why; I don't understand. Even though I know it is not gonna work out. It's not gonna last. I am gonna get over it as soon as the child lets go of the toy after playing with it for a while. And yet here I am, first thing I look at when I open my door or reach on my floor is the lock of that door.
Here's what happened.
So I live with my brother, away from our hometown. And we live on the 4th floor of the non-elevator building.
So anyway, we are fond of hiking and trekking. So on the night of 12th Feb we decided to go trekking on Rohida Fort. But the idiot remembered that he needed to buy cargo shorts before the trek. So anyway, it was not possible to get the shorts he wanted before the next morning. Still, we did place the order. And Amazon said they will deliver it tomorrow by 9 pm. And we thought we would be home by then, anyway. So it was okay.
The next morning, we woke up and went trekking. So in India or in Maharashtra, we do not get a network in mountains. So, I always turn on flight mode to save battery. And turn it on once in a little while to check upon. Anyway, when I turned it on to send pics or snap, I got shit ton of notifications about the order placed last night. Apparently, the delivery guy came early in the morning. As we weren't home, and he tried contacting me, but I could not be reached, he gave our package to the door in front of us. (Don't know why he chose that house; I just have an estimation.) There are 4 flats on each floor. But he chose the one in front of us. All he said to me was that he gave our package to the 2 girls that lived in the flat front of us. We went home in the evening. We did not ask for the package right then, cause we did not want to unnecessarily disturb them. We decided we would pick it up next morning. And went to sleep.
The next morning, which was Monday, my brother had job right in the morning at 7.50 or something. So, he was getting ready. And I was still half a sleep. And someone from the front-flat knocked on the door, so he answered, there was some exchange of one or two sentences. I couldn't hear it clearly as I was still half sleep.
After when I woke up, I caught up. And said to him that he did not even say thank you or sorry to the girl. And the asshole said that he did say thank you, and it was not a girl who delivered the package; it was a man. I was a little confused as I remembered hearing girl's voice, but I thought maybe, I was half sleep that time anyway. I believed him. That chapter ended there for me, at least.
On some day within the last week, I don't exactly remember, but we were coming home from somewhere in the night. When we reached our floor I opened the door and went to the inside rooms directly. (FYI, there is a lot of noise in this process. We are not the quiet types, we come either laughing or chatting everytime, also it is pretty closed place so there is noise of steps too, addition to that our door makes lot of sound everytime we close or open it) When he came inside after locking door, he said that someone from the front door was peeking from behind their slightly opened door. He did say it like he implied something, but I thought, so what? It seems our neighbors are bothered by us. And I ignored him. On the 16th Feb, I was home alone as usual and was a sleep till almost noon, cause I had received sudden day off. Survey people came and knocked on the door. So, until I woke up and opened the door, they had already knocked on all 4 doors, and neighbors were already looking outside in the hallway from their open doors. So when I opened the door, the survey lady put others (front flat) on hold and came to question me. While I answered her I was looking at the girls in front flat (more like i just glanced over one which seemed older of the 2 and kept looking at the younger one, like not clearly and constantly, like staring, no, I was just glancing over her again and again) Younger one seemed to be smiling at me. (Wait wait i forgot to mention, when i opened the door and glanced at them the first time, younger one seemed to be pointing me out to the older one, like in little excited manner.) So I smiled back at her too. And that was it. I answered the survey and closed the door. Surprisingly, I was still not giving this the attention it needed.
Anyway, it was still a pretty weird thing that happened, so I just wanted to tell my brother about it. We had plans to go see Death on Nile at 4.40 pm. So when he came home from work, we were already hurrying cause it was gonna be late. So after when we left home (wait, there is something I missed here. So, when we were outside of the door, we literally heard footsteps approaching as the girl ran towards the door and slightly opened the door to peek. And my brother was like, did you see, I told you right.) I did tell him it on the way. And I mentioned that I think that girl must be crazy as she was the one peeking from the door the other night too. So, he seemed to be agreeing at that time before the movie. During the movie, I mentioned that I can't stop thinking about the crazy girl to him; he said we will talk about it after the movie. (FYI, we drank cocacola during movie and since it was buy one get one offer we bought the biggest.) So after the movie ended, he said he thinks she is not crazy she must be in love with me. And naturally, I asked him to fuck off. Cause I know he likes to make fun of me. And I also said to him there is no way anyone would fall for me just by looking. I said if she is in love, it must be you. Then, he mentioned the actual happenings of the morning he took the package from them. He said that it was the same girl who came to deliver the package. And she was constantly looking behind me inside the house. Implying that she must be looking for me. And that shit right there got me thinking. We finished up dining and came home and went to sleep.
But, I couldn't sleep cause of the fucking caffeine. I have this condition. Basically, even a small dose of caffeinated drinks kills my sleep.
So there I was lying in the midnight, and guess what I was thinking about. I was fucking curious about the girl. It was driving me crazy. What is up with her? Even if she is in love, who does something so insane. My brother's argument was that she is little childish and innocent that is why she is acting like that. But for me, it was just far off possibility. I could not stop thinking about her. Anyway, I fell asleep in the dawn.
Next morning or afternoon, I don't remember when we first saw their house, but it was locked. First, we thought they must be gone outside. Then, it was still locked the next day and the day after. So we were having doubts if they moved or something. But there was still a possibility that they were just visiting their house and would come back when the weekend is over. But it's Monday today, and still, the door is locked.
Between these few days, I don't know why, but I am actually missing my crazy stalker a lot. Like, I don't know what, maybe because of the attention I was getting. Or maybe just the feeling of someone becomes happy by just seeing you. Crazy thing is I can't even remember her face clearly cause that's how much less I have seen of her.
In short, I just lost something which was never mine. Which I did not even ask for. Which I did not care for up until now.
The same thing happened with my job. Basically, I was looking for a job, and LUCKILY, I found a WFH which paid little too much than I cared for. It was not even a job I was searching for. So anyway, I lost it. As there was training period of 3 weeks and I did not clear the training so they discarded me.
Do you see the resemblance between these 2 happenings?
By the way, just to clarify the timeline, I lost my job on Friday night.
I lost 2 things that I did not initially care for within one week.
Girls usually make me sick.
I want my girl to be like me. I don't know what you see me as. But I will be clear about what I mean by "like me".
I am not weakling or a wuss. I am not a coward either. But I am sensitive. Both emotionally and physically (5 senses). As in I have sharp and sensitive nose. I wouldn't say I have sharp ears or sharp eyes, but they are pretty sensitive. I think it's because clarity of my mind. I end up noticing unusual things.
I have curious mind. And clear too. My thoughts are independent. Meaning I developed them myself, from scratch. Also they are based on reality and truth. They follow logics of this reality.
I am nature loving. As in I prefer valleys, mountains, streams, forests. And I hate human society.
I want her to be strong and a rebel. I want her to be courageous enough to stand up alone against everything. I know given our society it is way harder for women, but still, I want her to be that strong. I want her to be capable enough to take on anyone both mentally and physically. And despite being capable I want her to be considerate of her opponent. To think and try to understand their point of view. I don't want her to keep playing victim. I want her to accept reality and take it on. I don't want her to get swayed by shallow emotions. I want her to seek deeper meaning and worth. And to see this reality for what it is. And still have a warm heart, which melts for innocence and beauty.
I yearn for storm, I yearn for happenings. I don't find meaning in living for myself. I want to be productive in this world.
I want her to be arrogant, and well deserved to be one. But knowing when and where to use the weapon.
I want her to be alive, like me.
