We struggle to understand each other, because of the great number of languages spoken in the world. But “hugs” know no language barriers. Who needs a translator to tell you what an arm around your shoulders means?
a window on friendship
Johan Smit
p.s. In this world of controversy, does any old fashion word such as togetherness, affection and love have any meaning?????

Nice combination. Green and White. I loved it!
Although there is much to say about the Olympic opening ceremony parade, but considering it as a whole, it was rather interesting…
You can get more info about Iran’s latest status in these games here: the Official web site of the National Olympic Committee of Iran
P.s. This summer, having a 3 months break, I couldn’t stay faithful to the title of my blog!! Although I just hope I can find any job better than teaching…

Long long time ago… In July 2006, I started blogging at blogspot …
two years have been passed from that day, and now here I am again… I’ve really missed my english blog, my memories of the students, and even the time that I had no Persian weblog.
I’ve been busy during last 4 months and I had to abandon totally my English and French blogs. I just hope I can find some efficient ways to refresh this page and to gain the vitality and give the happiness and energy back to my blog.
just wanted to leave few lines here and say I AM STILL ALIVE!!!…

Wednesday, in the class:
The students are talking and talking, making noise, making incredible sounds… I just say:
-” Are you in the zoo or in the class?”
Answer:” Teacher! Welcome to the zoo!”
-”…??!!…”
*********
“How many the watch?!?! ” one of the students ask!
She wanted to ask so simply: “what time is it?!”

If I was the sun
I would shine my light
To light your world
If I was the rain
I would wash your tears away
I keep your world right
Be your light in the night
If I was the sky
I would rain down love into your life
If I was a river
You would be my ocean
Every stream would lead me to your arms
And if
If I was a river
I’ll flow to you forever
Love would run forever in this heart of mine
If I, if I
If I was a river
If I was the wind
I would carry you
Above the clouds
And if I was the earth
I would be your solid ground
If I could I’ll be
All you ever would need
I would be your world
You’re the only world there is for me
If I was a river
You would be my ocean
Every stream would lead me to your arms
And if
If I was a river
I’ll flow to you forever
Love would run forever in this heart of mine
If I, if I
If I was a river
I’ll run into your arms
Into your arms
Oh yeah
I’ll run to you baby
Oh yeah
If I was a river
You would be my ocean
Every stream would lead me to your arms
And if
If I was a river
I’ll flow to you forever
Love would run forever in this heart of mine
If I, if I
If I was a river

Well … it’s been a week that the winter term has started. I have a rather light schedule and have just two classes. I have one elementary class which sounds so eager but a little slow. And the other class in level 4, sounds so active and studious. I enjoy any way. Although I won’t experience the same adventure as the previous terms with so many students I already had, but children have always something to offer
!
On Wednesday, one of my students in level two, who is now in another class with another teacher, just brought me a gift … Her mother said that: “O Miss , you are a miracle! You made my child love English so much. She didn’t even like her school but you made her changed. Here there is a small gift from SHIMA (my student) who wanted to give it to you herself. The gift is small same as she, herself
“
Shima had already sent me some messages by her mother’s cell phone, and she had always such a nice, innocent manner to surprise me.
I was totally amazed by such a kind statement. I was really really happy and I felt satisfied with whatever I had done in the class.
