a book of ordinary people

Because We have forgotten that we are only ordinary people who are allowed to make mistakes..Normal left us a while back and we didnt even notice!!!
 

osteoporosis





1. Having roommate is so much fun, we both do the NOT studying together.. last night we even decided if we were dudes, we would've been big time perverts...

2. Deep down I am jealous of girls who are addicted to Shoe shopping... Being a size 10 I never had much luck with shoes, and not a shot at such an addiction.. In fact I am shoe shop-o-phobic

3. The more I study Substance Abuse ,the more respect i have for Junkies.. let me tell you something those people are smart, they figure out things on their own that giant Pharmaceuticals take like 20 years and millions of dollars to figure out

4. i have joined the basketball team... our team was pathetic.. even the girls in the opponent team were taller than our BOYS!!!

5. I am pushing 30, have great career prospect, come from a very well established Iranian Family in Bay area ( translate every male member of my family is a programmer ).. and yet single.. and I am not even that ugly, or fat or anything...
Somehow this situation reminds me of my acnes...
it has gotten everybody worried but me.. i mean they see it everyday, and it bothers them.. they all want to help.. even my hairdresser is finding me "Khastegar.."

6. Who knew that there are more than 5 synonyms for the word "PIMP," in Farsi!!! That should've been some JOB back in the days in the motherland..

7. Pretty much all the male members of my family ( father side) are programmers who graduated with a degree in E.E... one of my uncles once even justified his son getting his Master's in E.E and yet continuing with the programming with something like " payash ghavi mishe!!"
when one of my cousins was brave enough to actually study C.S , the whole family went into a state of emergency and decided to intervene...
My brother fooled the family by double majoring in E.E and C.S, he later confessed that he always skipped the E.E classes.. and i am not even making this UP!!!

7. The license Plate is real, i go to school with this guy... " This is what my brothers and mom called me since childhood," he claims!!!!

I'm so glad I ran into this post! It was just a few days ago that I was explaining this proud Persian naming concept in response to female circumcisions on Foulla’s post. Well, I had to say something and that’s the first thing that came to mind. I also was trying to make light of someone else’s comment holding men in general responsible for these chauvinistic acts and the grim state of women’s rights in third world and backward countries.

Hi Linda! Two questions please? How tall are you? I must be missing something. What's with osteoprosis?
