The Cost of Ignoring a Mother’s Advice
The Cost of Ignoring a Mother’s Advice BY:Khan “Osman, my dear son, don’t play with Nasser,” Mama said firmly one afternoon. “He is not a good boy. I’ve heard he steals, skips school, and spends his time wandering with bad company.”

Secret Letter. Content Warning.
It started innocently enough. A simple scroll through TikTok at 2 AM, insomnia keeping me awake in my cramped studio apartment where I'd been freelancing for months without human contact. The algorithm, that omniscient digital deity, must have sensed something in my desperate thumb movements because suddenly my feed bloomed with candles and crystals, with young women whispering incantations into their phone cameras.

Gudia’s Prayer: A Child’s Hope for Her Friend Guddu
Gudia’s Prayer BY:Khan I am Gudia. Right now, I am sitting in the long, silent corridor of a hospital. The floor beneath me is cold, and so is the air around me. It feels like the whole world has fallen asleep, except for me and the sound of my own thoughts.

Word of the Day:供養
I haven't found a good way to channel the vocabulary I am learning. I am incorporating it with my writing as a theme for each thing but there should be some sort of system to channel it into anki. I am close to figuring it out but I think it also requires some editing which I haven't participated in quite yet.

The Things We Do in the Dark. Content Warning.
October 12th I saw him again today. It’s stupid, really. The way my body reacts. A full-system reboot from a thirty-second interaction in a coffee line. It’s not even about the words. It’s about the space between them.

Word of the Day:教師
I need to schedule a math tutor. I think it is possible now since it is passed the 11th. My advisor I missed sent me an email and I got back to her when I could. It would be nice if we could handle it over email before the appointment but I understand if that isn't the case. Either way, the email was sent.

Word of the Day: 数学
I am trying to figure out how I want to navigate my 3 computers. I have the School computer set up on my dining table, but I am wondering if I should change it out for the couch one. Currently the couch one is my Personal computer. I was using it to buy stuff on amazon and stuff like that. I was also using it to input some stuff for my Anki and converting my physical notes to digital. I guess I can do it on the dining table.
