First blog

My first blog.....! 
As a guy grew up in a non English speaking country, far away from all English deals and stuff had hoped that after leaving  native country and going to  a foreign one where they teach in English would probably be fluent in speaking this precious language. 
My first step was to go to turkey for my bachelor from where I could easily could be accepted in UK's Universities for my master's. 

During high school I gave my hundred percent and did all i could do to prepare myself for National Exam of my homeland after 12, well I had done in that pretty well and I had scored really well 342.766 out of 360 got the first position in my province. still i remember that morning when my best friend samim called me from my hometown to tell me about result, i was living with my sister in her house in kabul after Exam for a change, so he told me that we both had been accepted to our favorite university, Kabul university the best in the country in civil Engineering faculty. I was so thrilled by this news not because  of being accepted in the best possible university in the country but because the getting high rank from my province which meant what I am eligible for governmental scholarship to go abroad and pursue my higher  education. 

To be honest we both had no idea what civil Engineering was about at that  time of events, we had only chosen that  because our mentor, our greatest teacher of all time Nematullah Qasim rezayi told us to. 

To not go far from topic from the moment I entered kabul university i had liked somethings and despised some other things that was my first time being in an academic place as sophisticated as kabul university; I had been waiting for governmental scholarships to be announced. Turkey was my dream country, Every year lots of students used to go there to pursue their higher education but when it was my time to leave, our president had changed and by that he had canceled turkish scholarship, and my dream of going to turkey vanished. 

I can not tell how much i was disappointed I lost my hope and my interest to college lectures which were going on day by day of my patience. that was ...........

I am Still Here

  Frankly, I never thought I would be in Afghanistan even after three years of college graduation. By now I thought I'd be somewhere far off but sadly I am still here. I am not sure when I'd be able to leave. I am afraid if I stayed here for long I might not wanna leave. Plus I am getting older by each year. There is the matter of marriage also. I am not sure how much longer I can keep postponing it. I am not worried so much about the marriage though, still, it seems like I should start thinking about it. But then again marriage can wait but education can't.  I am thinking of starting my higher education online. With the Taliban and their unpredictable rules, getting a passport to travel abroad is not guaranteed. So online education is my only way forward. I am thinking of settling down here; if only I could find the right person. Marriage is a very tricky business, there is no margin for error. For now, I can start my online studies and after a year or two when I am close ...

Lost in this Strange World

when I was a kid I thought I will figure out everything when I am younger, but apparently, that was just a childish dream of mine. I had thought by this age I would understand most things and would be able to make decisions about my life so easily. It is just so hard to make peace with the fact that I will never figure out everything and that I will always have doubts. I don't want to sound ungrateful because I really am not. I understand that the life I am living right now is a dream for thousands of young people in my homeland. However, I am not happy. I just don't know why? The reason for my unhappiness might be the people around me most of whom are impossible to understand. I work in a very prestigious international humanitarian organization but I don't like it here as much as I should. most of the people working here are insanely stupid and unbelievably arrogant. there is no teamwork. Every single department acts like an independent republic. No spirit of collaboration...

And the Mountains Echoed by Khalid Husseini

 And the Mountains Echoed by Khalid Husseini  This one is the third book from Khalid Husseini which I have read, and the second one which I finished completely. This is a story about love, loyalty, and compassion sacrifice. It is very different than the previous two of his book in which he focuses on the main characters but in this one, you won't have the same experience. Just when you think you are getting connected deeply with a character; it ends. And the story starts to be someone entirely different with a bit of connection with the previous character.          When it starts you would think it is about Abdullah and his little sister Pari; which quite of portion it really is about. But then another chapter starts and a new character rises and a new story beings. In short, you won't get attached to a single character.        I was a little bit disappointed because it was nothing I had expected I mean Khalid Husseini always writes...
