Last night was Dr. Nami's talk at Mohandes, He discussed Modernity and tradition in Art in Iran. It was a very interesting talk, I enjoyed it since I am not much familiar with Arts specially different styles of drawing, I have gone to drawing classes when I was a kid but that was the end of it;)This Saturday is one of my dearest family friend's wedding. I can't describe how happy I am for her, In Canada where close friends become family, I feel I part of bride's family,Simin joon love you tons:)I still don't know what I want to do with my hair!!Wait for a change:P..Have a lot of things to do on Sunday, look at all the relevant job postings and start applying to taste the market.I have to run to work now...

Madagascar


http://movies.about.com

Last night, My friend and I with my brothers went to watch Madagascar. The moview theater wasn't too full but the majority of the audiances were there for their kids!!!But the funny thing is that I felt I had the most fun of all, I laughed out loud just like a kid, I wonder if those kids were too small to understand the jokes or not, anyways I liked it a lot. In a way the story line could be applied to humn life. It the story of a few animals being courted out of NY zoo to Kenya, but along the way the got to Madagascar. The story looks at how their behaviour changes as they move from being surved and groomed to the wild. I loved the lion there, it reminded me of my friend:)I loved his mane. The sad part of the Cartoon was when the lion realized that his natural tendancey is to eat meet vs. vegtables and that his friends, Zebra, Giraffe and Hippo are his food, he tried to hide his true nature for the sake of friendship, but at the end the way he was groomed and brought up defeated his natural tendancey. I wonderwhat happens when a human from a civilized and wealthy class, belowered to a much lower class? Would they still remember their friends?I mean does survival of the futus is as harsh as the name is, or it may differe in humans. After all aren't we the thinker animal?

Convention

As part of CVG volunteer, I was invited to a very interesting meeting to help with brainstorming of CVG's annual convention. We went to China King Buffet, very good food, alot like Mandarine,I got to meet the managers of several companies, Apotex, Astra Zeneca, Lilly, Pharm Eng, Pathon,GSK...it was interesting to talk to those people and feel finally in my skin when I am with them. I heard the news from Apotex massive layout of around 125 people!!!can you imagine!!only 25 of them were from R & D..anyways some times faith suprizes you when you are following up it..I was suppose to meet one of the co founders of PharmEng Technologies last year through my one my contacts which never happened. Last night I got to meet him in person, in a way I am proud of myself, since I am extending my network in this industry. The funny thing is that as soon as he saw me, he told me:oooooooooh, so you are the Azadeh from Purdue!!!!so imagine this!!I was shocked..I asked:how do you know me?he said:I know!!!!I wonder how does he know..probably through Steve..I don't know, I don't care at this point on how he knows me, I just want to meet him in person if possible.

Despite for numerious reasons that I did not want to be part of IAUT again. I got elected for the outreach committe. I hope it goes well this year.seeing friends again, going out to Saboo, then to another friends home for a chat was fun. But now it's back to reality. My confusion over what I am going to do after August. I am just drained out of energy now and don't want to think or do anything with my life. I wonder how my parents are so energetic and move to the unknown and take the challange. I am just tired of thinking. I am tired of stratigic planning..I just want to close my eyes and not think at all..and don't see the people, that by seeing their life, make me doubt my self and my abilities. I just want to get detached from this world..may be just die.
