Now I really don't know what to write about. All I know is my ADSL is gonna be over any minute and I wanna use the very last of it! The weather is amazing here in Tehran and the sun is yet pleasant! I met Hamed Slasher today who's just got back from a vacation in Turkey. He's got all tanned and looks hotter to girls I guess! He's done all sorts of crazy (and on some level "dirty") stuff in Turkey that I'm not gonna talk about here! Safaneh's got back from a trip in Mashhad which she refers to as "F"! Damien spent a week in Kish island and got back only yesterday. He says the trip couldn't be better! Big Ham got a short haircut a few days ago which looks really good on him. Sara's gonna take French again at Kish and I'm starting my Farhikhtegan classes next week. That's pretty much what's going on in our lives! Ok! You can cut my ADSL now!

It's here at last! ADSL connection! It's not really as fast as I thought it'd be, but it's way faster than the dial-up connection I used to have and gives me lots of new options on the net. This is a picture I took of Sara on a wharf in Kish. I like it a lot, cause I think there is a special feel about it.

It's been a while I've been thinking of getting an ADSL connection. Yesterday, I went to the local telecommunications center and inquired about it. I learned that a 128kbps connection would cost me just below 30,000 toomans per month. I thought I might wanna put it off for later. Interstingly enough, last night, I came across a blog entry on Ham's page which was entitled: "A Simple Trick to Boost Your Dial-up Speed by 100%!". I followed the instructions and got a much faster connection. I wonder how it works! :D Thanks Ham!
Yesterday, I left home earlier than usual to buy a new IELTS sample tests book for my student, Sasan. I thought it would be a good chance to take pictures for my friend, Norm and so, I took the camera with me. I didn't have the time to get off the car, take a shot and get back in; so, I took most of the pictures while driving! I must've scared the hell out of those pedestrians! :D Norm was so grateful about the pictures and has put one of them on his today's blog entry. He says he thinks Tehran looks very much like many of the big cities scattered throughout the United States. Norm is so lucky to live in a quiet neighbourhood rather than Tehran or Washington!
