Every morning the first page I visit in the internet is Balatarin.com . It's natural when you don't switch to national TV's at all and want to know recent news come here.
Lots of things happened yesterday : Dariush Asadzadeh's death, End of Cannes Festival and Iranian film awarded,Start of Khordad's protests here and there, ...
But one of these regular news was more interesting: Half of Iran university students are studying in five courses:Computer engineering, Electronic engineering, Management, Accounting and Law. Lots of other engineering fields and also courses related to health or research or art are not concluded here !!! I can't look at these article as a very ordinary one. It means more than a half of our students choose their course just by the reputation and for taking the degree, no need of self-interests or family backgrounds are felt. It doesn't sound good I think.

Childhood
Every reaction of human beings has great footprints in people's childhood.
I think we've heard this sentence at least more than once. Today I was talking with a friend, our conversation was about ways of training our children as future members of this society and concluded the above sentence again.
If you're living in Iran and are same age as me (25 ~ 35) then certainly you remember the only children program which was broad casted in channel 1 at 5pm and lasts only one hour. I remember it was the most precious time of my day, sitting and watching Pesare Shoja, Banel, Dr. Ernest's Family ... during this one hour of our happiness we had 15 minutes for saying Aazan and prayers which causes our program be cut. Even now I can feel that hateress I had to Aazan. Now it's not weired if you don't find anyone who still says his prayers. We are the generation who was tortured by Islamic tools.
Is Rozana going to the same way here in this country?!

Sweet Friday
Today was a hot Friday which I heard the magic sentence of " Mama, I love you." from Rozana's mouth more than ten times !!! Although I somehow shouted at her for doing some mistakes and didn't do any extraordinary tasks she came and kissed me times and times.
I wrote these sentences here to show her, when she is reading these line maybe more than 10 years from now, how much positive energy she'd given me by saying a simple sentence and don't forget saying it again.
Thank you my little princess.

Book Fair
Yesterday I went to International Book Fair of Tehran with a friend and didn't buy anything except some books for Rozana!
It was crowded, hot, dirty and with no properiate guideline for the names of printers. Even Mehrdad who went there after us and wondered about 4 hours came back with almost nothing except children's book !!!
It's painful that our children are not able to read books of DolatAbadi, Behnood, Forugh,Golshiri ,Shamloo, .... and lots of more geniuses who are trying to make us think. I'm sorry for our children and am trying to collect a precious collection of all these books in order to help Rozana for remembering her country in the future.(I think they are introducing their desired country to our children)
Beside it, sitting at a corner of the fair and eating sandwiches with my friend gave me a very pleasant feeling. I think those who were used to go to the fair and are not living in Iran can understand what I'm talking about ;)
My dearest Attiehjoon, Live with your memories of the fair, there is nothing left only a Bal masqué of people who pretends are working in the culture field. Everything was like a circus ...

The Namesake
Some nights ago I finished reading a novel by Jhumpa Lahiri named "the Namesake". This is her fifth book and first novel printed in 2003 and is about an Indian man who has the name of a Russian author, Gogol, and is mistaken so decided to change his name and ...
I'd read some other books of Jhumpa Lahiri and each time I read a book I find how much similarities are in Indian and Iranian cultures.
