Dangling Days!

The rainy day in the university 4years ago - found this by chance for this post!

What has happened to me this year?… may be it is a “havvel haalena” –An Iranian pray for internal revolutions – overdose!

In the spring I got feelings which where ridicules for me before that and in the summer I changed all my plans for my professional life!

Time has imposed me many surprises that all made revolutions, but I am talking about MY tricks to myself!

And know is the first days of autumn… I am dealing with moments that may be described as an “active complex”!

So stressful days…

The popular BRAND in Zanjan!

His wedding party (last night) motivated me to write about him…

Never forget the first time I met him; As he was head of the Cultural Committee (in Mehraneh), I got the chance to work with him for three months.  During those 3monthes, Mehraneh experienced its busiest days ever had. with him I believed that a human CAN go toward perfectness!

We have many names that became brands as their owners were successful in their JOBS; but SeyedJamal is the popular brand in this city for being a human!

The reUNION

The public meeting of the graduate students association of my highschool held last Thursday. In that reunion, I saw the friends that I haven’t met for a long time.

There is something in old friendships that u can’t find it in new ones. U can make friends anywhere but the school friends have really sth that…

In school we could hardly be careful to hide what we were! We were 100% ourselves. Then, we knew each other well and close friends knew everything about each other. There were nothing to hide!

IT IS STILL POSSIBLE TO HOPE!

This time, finally the one I worked and voted for, won the elections! Prof. Nasiri is a scientist who have great but operative plans for this city… an academic city!

Thanksgiving Ascending

Last Friday MEHRANEH had an Ascending program for the 21 people who have been overcome cancer since July 2006. 500 people took part and 300 of them climbed the SONBOLEH Mount.

It was really great. You could find Snow, health, help, sport, fun, and cooperation, but not any cold atmosphere at all.

The more you study, the same you achive!

To be honest, last term was my first time that I really studied for the exams. The first time that I studied all the books once, as all do for a good mark (of course they may study a little more than once! ). But… the marks who are coming one after the other, all are shouting the title of this post!

Although since I entered the university the marks have really never been a concern for me, the news about the effects of BA marks on MA entrance exam scouring, are slowly motivating me to pay more attention to this – little – desperate – codes!

Despite the last term, this term I have classes on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Then I would not miss the uni’s fish and chicken anymore!

The Festival Of Grief!!

A lunar year unlike a solar year has no seasons. A month in a lunar year may be in autumn and and another year it would be in spring! As the Arab people used to govern my country for several years, we have some special days in lunar date. The lunar year starts with MOHARAM. I love MOHARAM. For me, it reminds the festival which changes the view of streets and the view of the people. It reminds me uncle’s house where we gather after a year. when we, the cousins, where children, we used to gather in patio with our candles that we all had bought the day before. After lighting the candles we used to wish; the wishes which all came true… I have experienced these great days in every 12 months of the solar year so every year it has had a new taste for me.

All the festival is for remembering a hero named HOSSEIN. A hero who is still in people’s heart after near 1400 years.He battled and killed by his enemies only because he did not accepted to hide the truth.

Where I live, people of any kind take part in this festival. You can find Muslims, Christians, Jews and Zoroastrians, who avow to do Something for charity these days because they all love HOSSEIN. Unlike “to love” a hero like HOSSEIN -that is really easy and has no difficulties- “understanding” him I think is more valuable and also hard. I wish I could understand him!

Reason To Write!

At last I decided to write. Shouting may be my reason and also my way of writing. To write about anything that I can tell and announce freely to anyone including myself. In this way, I may write everything true but would not write everything that is true! silence may be more effective than muttering. So you would read no mutter here!

My definition of mutter is anything that you can not SHOUT it.
