Surviving the Day

~Getting to Know Me~

Hey diary! I'm Sahar, I'm a very shy girl, though I'm not an introvert, I'm an ambivert, but I'm still very shy and I got acne and pimple all over my face! that makes me that one not-so-attractive nerd...

This is my first time writing in a DIGITAL diary. I have many paper diaries like ART JOURNAL, GRATITUDE JOURNAL, STUDY JOURNAL. But, I'm writing a daily journal and that too in my phone!

I'm pretty good in studies, and I believe in always speaking the truth, and always being kind to other people (but only those other people who are good to me too), but I'm very lazy and a little disorganized; my room is always messy.
That's all I wanted to tell you about me. Now comes my family. My family consists of my mom, dad, and my 6-year-old brother

First, my mom Emily, who's a Christian. My mom is very kind, but not to me! she always likes to control me, I  get it she cares about me, but to be honest it's annoying sometimes. My mom sees me as a literal 7-year-old kid who doesn't know how to face the hardships of life.

One time, in middle school I requested that I want a bike(cycle) because going to school by bus is very..uncomfortable for me, and it took 8 days of daily begging, washing utensils, cleaning my room daily to make her say a simple YES.
But other than that my mom is very good, she is strong, forgiving, and showers me and my brother with lots of love. Mom's fashion sense is out of this world, she works as a fashion designer at a company called "Royal Fashion", mum's also good at knitting.

Next comes my dad, Kabir, who's a Muslim, so yeah I have two religeons whatsoever. My dad is a nice person too, he's very awesome, he plays video games with me all the time. But dad is lazy and likes to sleep a lot.

This one time, I went to my aunt's house along with my mom and brother for 10 days. When we returned home later, the house was a litter, everything was scattered here and thee, the dishes were overflowing out of the sink, the floor was dirty and the house was smelling because dada didn't bother to take out the trash. On that day, I saw my mom in full rage, she was literally ON FIRE, she scolded dad so much, that even after being sent to my room, I could hear every single word she said, and dad stood quiet, and then mom made him clear the house up, and now dada has gotten better, but now you know why my room is always messy.

My 6-year-old brother, Noah, looks very cute and innocent, but he isn't. He's VERY annoying and naughty, he always does stupid things, and then tells mom that I did that. I sometimes like beating him up to his pulp, but then I remember he's just a 6-YEAR-OLD bad boy. I guess he takes after dad, because he sleeps all day, and he says that after growing up he wants to become a PROFESSIONAL SLEEPER*(A professional sleeper is a sleeper who is an expert who may test the beds, mattresses, and bedding for the firms and inform the review).

I dislike him very much. WHY you may ask. well, there are a lot of reasons but let me tell you this one time...

when I turned 12 years old, 2 years back from now, my mom and dad gifted me a laptop, and my aunt Zoe gave me her phone because she bought a new one. I was very happy, I even let my brother play on my phone for a little while, but when I took the phone from him, he started shouting saying "I WANT THE PHONE NOOOOWWW!!!!" but my mom sweetly told him to give me the phone as it's mine. 
The next day when I returned home from my friend's house, I couldn't find my phone or laptop, I went into Noah's room to ask him whether he saw them and guess what!... Noah was sitting on the floor with a screwdriver and pliers, trying to open my laptop, after he already cracked open my phone I shouted loud as hell after seeing that. My mom and dada scolded Noah and told m to calm down. They sent the laptop and phone for repairing, the laptop took 2 whole weeks to repair the laptop, but they couldn't repair the phone D: Noah was grounded for 1 month, and his pocket money was also stooped for 6 months.UGH! LITTLE SIBLINGS!

Anyways...now about my friends...in middle school, all the people were my friends, but my best friend's name is Mia. She's a cute and naive girl. We both helped each other and went to each other's house to study every once a week. I love her so much. But, now I've changed my school and transferred to a new school, and now Mia and I don't meet often...but we talk on my phone, and yeah now I have a new phone. 

We thought of doing a reunite before our new academic year starts. So I went to an art museum together with both of our moms, we both love art. We saw a horror house there so we thought of going there. when I turn came, Mia was scared as hell to go in, but I dragged her in. It really was scary and I CRIED because of a jumpscare, but at that time Mia said "well I was scared to come in, but now It's NOT scary it's FUN! so stop trying like a baby!"
