Casino Royal
Casino Royal was a typical James Bond movie. Perhaps the best definition is the one which is written by Roger Ebert in his website: "This is possibly the most indulgent film ever made."
In this movie, everything is happening just for James in a very funny ways. Nobody even thought they can be real ! This is a very big weak point when people know they are going to be decieved from the begining.
Anyways, I liked the story. Although the story was a typical James Bond story, people could stay awake because it was told in an intresting way.
I am not an expert, but I in my opinion Casino Royal doesn't have many good shots.
Overall, I think this a commercial movie that even a comedy one.
از فیلم نوشتم یکم و میخوام یکمم از آدمایی که تو اون 2-3 ساعت سفرم به خونه دیدم بنویسم . آدما عجیبن . جالبه که نمیشه خوندشون
Requiem for a dream
Have you seen the movie "Requiem for a dream"?
"When they use, a window opens briefly into a world where everything is right. Then it slides shut, and life reduces itself to a search for the money and drugs to open it again. Nothing else is remotely as interesting."
Please read the Roger Eberd paper on this movie here.

We did
Leo Sayer - When I Need You
This song was Lana's favorite. She sang this song for me many times. She was cool.
I can remember all we did. You can't believe how much fun we had. Have you ever walk 2 times in Enghelab sport complex when the "Jade Tandorosti" was covered by snow, and sing a song and hug you girl friend, and say hello to everybody you see? Have you?
Have you ever gone to a place in Shahre rey (A city south of Tehran) to eat "Shole zard" and bring a smile on the face of a poor family?
Have you ever ...

I feel really bad these days. Like a looser who is far behind other people. Almost everybody notices that these days. I went to work, and one of my friends had written to me on a piece of paper:
"You know! I believe in you. For my sake, believe that there is no mountain you can't climb, no towers to high. No plane you don't learn how to fly.
You know my friend, long term achievements are accomplished on day to day effort. "

رشد جمعیت در ایران
Protest
“For the first time in human history, Cyrus used his great power to improve the human condition rather than degrade it.”
Dr. David Stronach (UC Berkeley)
I put some pictures of the protest for abusing an Iranian student at UCLA. It is very important to me why they should treat to a student like a criminal while they call for justice in the world,and pass resolutions about the human rights against the other cultures, but not governments. right?
When they want to say something bad, persians and persian culture are always there, but they don't talk about persian culture in any positive aspect. Even in american universities, when they talk about history, and cultures or civilization, they ignore the persian culture. For example, go to University of Washington cultural website here. Where is Iran?
To know a little bit more about human rights in persian empire please watch a short clip about Cyrus the great here.
Something to think about ...
Please read about it in the LA times here.
It's important to know why we want to go and live in a place where they can not even tolerate the civilised disobedience. I should mention I have many great american friends, but I don't like the way of americam government treat to other nations.
My friend, I know you love the USA, but please think about a country in that you can not fly any other flag but the americam one.
It's your choice, but if I were you, I never put my picture with american flag on my profile!

Life goes on. With God or without God
How many times do we live? How many times do we die?
Yes, I saw 21 grams again. How much is 21 grams? a new born child weight or a weight of a chocolate bar?
Is it important how we live? Is it important how we love?
What is important?
Is it important to whom we bitrate? Our friend, girl friend, boy friend, mom, dad , or God?
Lana sent me an email. I believe in that.
As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn't supposed to ever let you down probably will. You will have your heart broken probably more than once and it's harder every time. You'll break hearts too, so remember how it felt when yours was broken. You'll fight with your best friend. You'll blame a new love for things an old one did. You'll cry because time is passing too fast, and you'll eventually lose someone you love. So take too many pictures, laugh too much, and love like you've never been hurt because every sixty seconds you spend upset is a minute of happiness you'll never get back.

Sunny day
I am alway with you mom and dad. I am happy that you know that. I am trying to write as simple as possible for you guys.
By the way, I woke up at 9:00 today. The first thing that I said was : "OH MY GOD! SUN! SUN! SUN! "
We are the luckiest people in the world. Usually in November, it is impossible to see the sun here, but we saw it. It was sunny and nice when we went to Tofino town. Tofino is a small, but very beautiful town. The center of the town has 2 blocks, and it has just 1 blinking light ! We went to beach from 2 different trailes, and we took tons of pictures. Oh, we got on a boat and saw the town while we enjoyed sunny day on the boat.
I forgot to write that we went to first nation's gallery, and bought a painting as a souvenir of Tonifo.
Behrooz and I want to go to the beach now. It is 2 minutes away us. We can smell it. We can hear it.
Oh, a funny story. Today I woke up by the Kouhyar's voice when he sang the "Azan"! I scared! Wow, they are comming! No, No, No! Get away from me! the last 3 sentences were my thought when I woke up today. Dawn to Islamic Republic to make us hating these kind of things even if they be sung by our friends!
Anyways, I will update you soon.

Wonderful start
Woke up at 10:00 , I took a shower. Just imagine if you take a shower and meantime, you can see the biggest ocean and people who surf in that beautiful ocean.
We had a wonderful breakfast, and are going to go to see the Tofino, national park, and rain forest during the day.
Ah, not to mention that we are going to go to walk on the beach under the light rain now.
Love you mom. Love you dad.

Try to keep hope
I ate a snak 2 hours ago after th e most delicious nap in the world under the voice of the rain. I was quite surprised when I listened to the Angela and her mom's conversation during the snak time about the cancer patients and the way a nurse could and should treat them. Her mother mentioned to a very imporant issue: the role of the hope in the life. Aco rding to her, being hopeful is one of the most important characteristics that everybody should have in his/her life.
Dr. kouhyar and Dr. Behrooz sleep now and Angela and her mom went to a community gathering in the town, and I just found that I got under average in my gerontology midterm despite all of my effort ( I think because of my english) . I was working on the gerontology paper during the last 3 2 hours, and hopefully I can do the better job for the paper and in the final.
anyways, our host designed and built her house herself. This is the most peaceful and bewutiful house in the world. Every thing is perfect. The walls colors are light yellow, light pink, white, ... . The floor is a very good hardwood and you can find sea shells and other sea stuff all around the house.
She had gone to town before we came to buy Sangak bread for us. She is gorgeous.
Oh, my friend asked me if there is the internet in Tofino? YES! Tofino with surrounding area has 1500 people, but they have the high speed wireless internet, and they know how to use the internet and actually they use it quite often. Not to mwntion that we are talking about the people who have high education (i.e. mostly university degree) who love to live in the country.
Here is quiet, peaceful, and nobody cares about life. These people see life as it is. Very easy.
I wokp up by the voice of the pacific ocean today. I came back from the beach walking. LOOK! The nearest land is Japan ! Wow, God ! I am in the heaven. One of the most beautiful palaces in the world is Tofino. Tofino is a westest corner of the Canada, and there is no land after this place till Japan.
Our host is the Kouhyar's friend's mom, and I really impressed by her hospitality. I had the best breakfast ever this morning : The best Coffee, pan cake, diferent fruit, and maple syroup. I am going to take a nap for half an hour and eat lunch. Then we wanna go to town.
God! I am living. I am enjoying my life. I don't care about life, and I feel good about it.
Mom, dad! I'll update you every couple of hours. So, watch up!

See you some day
Hilarious Dance Performance
Please watch this show. It's not easy to make poeple happy. I am not a talented person in performing, but I really appreciate people who can do an amazing art like THIS.
I really enjoyed her performance. We all can do whatever we want. We need try.
For more information about her please click Here.
I really recoment listening to her performance. Please Click HERE
I hope something change in my life though. I am not a person who live like this. I have enjoyed 27 years of my life and work for 1 year ! just last year. The year that I came to Canada for better life and opportunity. This is my goal. I am satisfied with my overall life. I did great in my carrier, but my life is silent.
Why I am changed? How I am changed? The problem is nothing can make me feel what I like. I loved talking about issues which I thought important. I loved flirting with girls, and ... .
Now, I just like to work. Hanging out with 2 or 3 (not very close) friends [exept Kouhyar who I really think he is great] does not satisfy me.
Last night, we went to a bar. Live music, dance, beer, girls, rain, and ciggar ! Last year being in this situation was my dream. I love to go to this place again, but I have to try to make myself happy. I just wanna know why! It bothers me a lot.
PS. I went to "Yas" yesterday for the first time! I lied to my friends as it was very weird that I never had gone to Yas before! I told them I was there once. Crap! I wasn't there.
I am in Vancouver for more than a year and I have never gone to a Symphony! It's just 10$ for students. I went to cinema once. I listned to live music yesterday for the first time! , I never watch a tennis match , and ...
I promissed myself to LIVE ! I have cheated.
I revealed these facts to punish myself not to lie anymore. I need to learn to accept the responsibility even if I cheat to somebody. In this case, to myself.
I promissed Behzad to LIVE when I leave that jail (ie. Iran's current society). Apparently, I didn't ...
