Give & Take

Isn't it pretty ironic that some people expect so much love from someone else but don't give as much love to others?  I can't brain the mentality of people who only expect to take, but not give.  To me, if you want to be loved, you have to love.  It's like doing charity in a way.  You give your all to a cause, and in the end, you will be rewarded, somewhat someway, because Allah is great.

You can't simply expect to be treated like a Queen (you "oh-so deserve to be treated as" as you always eloquently put it), when you yourself treat the people around you like rubbish. Not even peasants, r-u-b-b-i-s-h.

You know that feeling of just wanting to shake some sense into (OR strangle to death) some people who just can't seem to use their very own personalised God's greatest gift to mankind a.k.a the brain? *rolling eyes emoji* Sometimes, it makes you ask yourself if they even have one.

Long Distance Relationships

Let's just be real here, and have the title be straight to the fucking point. Long distance relationships (LDRs) are a bag of shit, and glitter (on occasion). I don't think anyone is even interested to know about how I do my LDRs, but I'm just here to break it to ya girls out there, who think it's so shitty (it is, but not ALL the time) OR those who think it's a bed full of roses (again, it is, but not ALL the time).

LDRs are of course full of sleepless tearful nights of missing the other half, having to pause and synchronise the minutes and seconds of the movie every few minutes because the server fucks up, shitty internet regardless of how much the telco is ripping you off, being woken up at 3am because it's only 9pm/9am where he/she is, calls that are full of "reconnecting"(s) and "poor connection"(s), pointless fights about waiting up and accidentally falling asleep, having to rush out of class for lunch in order to squeeze in a quick "good night" wish, and the list just never ends.

But it's also full of amazing long conversations about how chaotic your day in school was, insightful (and sometimes, progressively ugly) debates about plastic surgery in Korea vs. USA or even Coke vs Pepsi, still getting to watch movies together (thank god for the existence of internet!), being able to see their face / hear their voice after a loooong ass day, being there for them to consult or console them whenever need be, and this list goes on and on as well.

Like, one minute we could be having this electric conversation packed with energy and enthusiasm, but the very next minute we could be on our respective phones checking Cosmopolitan and Daily Mail on Snapchat. Ya see, it ain't all fun and games. But hey, don't get me wrong, I love every part of it.

Personally, I feel like if that person is worth it, distance is just a measure of physicality, because in the end, you're still with each other, up there, in your mind, and down there, in your heart. Ew, so fucking cliche. Lol bye xo
