Easter music

I went to that Indian meditation event with Jeeraj. After meditation, we were walking around the campus that we heard some guys are playing music. When we approached that place, a girl saw me and smiled at me, and it was like she had seen a friend she really loves. Her name was Taylor. I thought that I was wrong, and she might have seen a friend (like a few days age when Sophia saw her friend and I thought that she had seen me). However, she came to talk to me after the show.



She: Hi. I saw that you were taking pictures.
Me: Hi. Yes. I take pictures of everything! What is this for?
She: This is for Easter.
Me: What is Easter?
She: We are Catholics. We believe that Jesus returned after three days, and we celebrate this every year.
Me: Interesting. [Oh, Another Christian? So, you didn't like me? You just wanted to advertise your religion to me?]

(Very long conversation about major, religion ...)

She: OK....
Me: OK....
She: [Smile]
Me: [Smile]

She expected me to do something like asking her number or exchanging Facebook or whatever, but I didn't know if I should have done that. At first, I thought that she was just wanted to advertise her religion to me, but after our conversation, I realized that she liked me. She was only 18, and it was her first semester. I had this feeling that this might lead to a very passionate love for her, and I didn't want to hurt her. So, I didn't exchange numbers.

She talked to Jeeraj a little, but it was obvious that she was not really into talking to him. She just wanted to show that she was a sociable girl, and it was not a big deal that she had talked to me.

Jeeraj: Who was that girl?
Me: I don't know.
Jeeraj: I though that she was Ann and she came to say, "I love you!"
Me: No, it was my first time seeing her, and Ann never say this to me! She has a boyfriend.
Jeeraj: But she came to you very passionately that I thought that you knew her.

He was right. Kids, it seems that my changes are positive. For the first time, I see that some girls are showing their interests to me.

Pigeon home spotted

I found a pigeon house in a cozy place in our university where I passed millions of times, and I haven't seen this before. I like it when I find something as awesome as this somewhere.


Love you little bird.

Lots of new years!

There was an amazing talk in toastmasters today about new year celebrations in India. She said there exists more than 23 different new year celebrations in one year there! It was very interesting to me because I noticed that I experienced lots of new years this year a few days. We had Persian new year, Indian new year, Jewish new year, Christian new year, and some others that I didn't have time to go. It is one of the most strange things that a foreigner can experience in the US.

Three hours talking to Camellia

Camellia called me today to talk about a decision in her life. She was not satisfied from her major and most importantly the group she was working with. I tried to guide her the best I could. I had this feeling that she made up a story to have something to talk to me. I don't know if I was right or wrong. Anyway, I talked to her, and I get to know her better as she told me the story of her life and how she got here. I also told her mine.

Martin's daughter's birthday

My professor took me to Martin's house. They invited me one week ago, but they hadn't told me about the birthday party, so I didn't know it was his daughter's birthday, and I didn't buy anything for her. I didn't expect that our meeting be that long that I got to Martin's house very late.

The party was good, and they prepared lots of food.


The was a girl, Camellia, there that I couldn't remember when I met her before. She knew me, but I didn't know her. She tried to break the ices between us by doing uncommon things. I got surprised when I heard that she planned this with Martin's wife to get my eyeglasses to wet me. We played water battle in Martin's house, and she started the game. I tried to be like myself. I can't say I like her, and I can't say that if she likes me I don't like her.

A business meeting day

My professor called me today to go to another town and talk to a doctor regarding our project. He came late and I had a very amazing time enjoying awesome weather of today.



In the way, he asked me so many questions about marriage in Iran. I wish I had written them earlier because I can't remember many parts of this now. I also get familiar with Indian culture. Perhaps, he knows someone, and he would like to introduce her to me because he said, "Indian culture has many things in common with your culture. I think that you should consider marring an Indian girl." I was thinking about Taylor all the time he was talking about marriage.


We met in a McDonalds store. That person was a very bright person. He was also from India. At first, we suggested to have a software company, but he had a better idea. I really liked his idea. Since it's a business idea, I can't write about it here, but it was kind of generalized version of our idea in the form of services and not products.


It was very busy the way back home. We discussed about that person's idea. I think that we may take it sometime later. We really need to think about the business model he suggested.

One day wasting on my course project

In order to finish my parts of my course project, I spent the whole day today. I was very unhappy doing all these things because it was a complete waste. I expected them to do these things to learn something. I already knew all these things. In addition, I almost did all major parts of the project that is useful for the final grade. The rest of the project is like a hobby. They can easily do it by copying and pasting my codes. I don't want to spend more time on this project.
