Days of my Less Mess of a Life in Cali,
and the return to normalcy!
Well, finals are over and for the past few days I have been trying to get my normal life back! The very first day after the very last final was the remote control day where all I did was to lie down on my lil' belly on my big comfy couch all day long watching every show on every channel. The day after that was phone day where I called every single person in my cell phone list, especifically those whose calls I had not replied long enough for them to have deleted my name off their cell list and added to the black list. Next came the following events in no specific order whatsoever!
The Post Final Days of My Life in Cali:
Friday: Got invited to a bday party and a party promoted by a friend at club gherti or something to that effect. Regrettably chose the close friend's bday party at this Mexican restaurant, danced salsa and got bruises on knee and knee cap and toes and shoes! BDay boredoom drove us to smoking Hookah at this great hookah place I like. Guys smoked professionally and us girls amateurly! Went home reeking of smoke and not being able to breath for years! Realized I'll never be a smoker!
Saturday: Went out to lunch with some friends. Sat in the sun for hours while talking talks that made no sense whatsoever. Had tickets to go to Ms Shirin Ebadi's event at Westin Hotel. Got invited to a "Finals are over and we survived Law School" party in Long beach thrown by a lawschooler friend, a goodbye party thrown for this persian girlfriend who's leaving for Boston at club Rio in the Valley, and a Shirin Ebdai after party in Irvine! Went to Ms Ebadi's event at 6PM. Witnessed lotsa fighting over seats. Heard lotsa cell phones go off during the speech! Got highly disappointed in the passion-less speech and the one person we should be proud of and gave in into going to the Irvine party which turned out to be the friend's sister's bday party! Met a whole lotta people. When asked about Ms Ebadi, revealed true feelings to the guy question-asker who turned out to be Ms Ebadi's relative! Did not get kicked out though. Realized how some true feelings should remain true-unrevealed feelings!
Sunday: Felt a lil' blue, used girlie therapy! Shopping truly heals all wounds! Met up with friends at Spectrum, saw 2 films. Crash was awesome. Loved it and showed girlie love for it through shedding them sympathy tears here and there. Loved the Iranian family in it. Did not like the ending that much, but oh well. Regretably saw "Monster in Law". Love J.Lo but did not like the movie. Had refrained from going to such movies for ages. Realized hollywood comedy is just not my cup of persian tea no matter how hard I try.
Monday: It is monday morning (1:30 AM monday)and I am sleepy and cannot sleep. Ms Ebadi's talk brought back lotsa memories from the days of my life in Iran! Excruciatingly painful memories that I had long thought have been deleted from my grey cells. I simply do not want to re-live anything from the past. All I want is a pop up blocker to rid me of the painful memories that pop up in my lil' saturated brain every now and again. My only question is: to which court am I to take my wrath and my complaint?
P.S. Sex and the City of Irvine: Well, I heard that 2 Iranian girls have made a documentary about sex and sexuality in which 8 girls have talked about what no persian gal should ever talk about: all things taboo!! (Those who know me know how I cannot say the "S" word and writing it here is a big big major step for me towards a change in my mentality!) To see what these girls have to say about what should not be said, we drove all the way to LA (UCLA). The 2 hour traffic kept us from making it to the film (God's way of telling me to keep living as a prude???), But the girl who made the film promised me to bring the movie to Irvine, Orange County! May God forgive us all!
Gole Yakh: I would like to reaffirm, once more, my love for Mohammad Reza Golzar. Ain't he the most gorgeousest Guy ever? The movie was not that great but since mohammad was in it, I ain't gonna complain or nothing!
P.S.S. School started last week. I basically had a 5 day break. It is "Patent" and "Trademark" and a whole lotta reading, but since I have my friends in both classes I ain't gonna complain or nothing.
P.S.S.S. I have not had much time to go online these past days, but a couple of times I looked at my blog I saw no comment link! Is my comment link gone, I wonder? Or is it me and my computer?

Days of My Mess of a Life in Cali,
and the coming out of my father
And not only has my father come out, but also has my mother come out and also have my ancestors come out!!!!!! In other words "Pedaram dar omade, madaram dar oomade, jad va aabadam dar oomadan!".
I am not 2 tired anymore! I am 3 and 4 and 5 and 6 tired. For the past 2 weeks I have been studying from 9 am to 4 or 5 am, falling sleep on the couch for being too numb to go all the way up the stairs to my room and on to my bed! Life's been hell! Life's been me and the couch and the laptop and the books and lotsa freaked outness and lotsa nervous moments and a few tears here and there and a few words exchanged with those around and a whole lot of bitching and complaining on AIM (APGIC on AIM) with my fellow lawschoolmates! Life's been cases and rules and statutes and codes. Life has definitely brought out my father big time these past weeks and I am not liking it, not a tad.
