Other Activities	A Very Important Note : Any thing that goes in this section (Every Single Word) shall be interpreted as my profound gratitude to my Mother and after her, my Father. I remember her waiting hours for me to finish my classes or sessions of practice, painting, swimming, music, … whatever. No matter how far, how long, how hard she would take me there. I am not sure if I’d ever do the same for my own children. And Damn it, the lady is still more intelligent and sharper than I am (She’s an EE Engineer also from Sharif). Daddy used to be my beloved wise man for so long. I trusted his taste and judgments in most of the issues. Now, I tend to decide for myself but still he’s my man. Dad has great taste in Arts. Daddy likes Antiques, Persian Carpets, Painting and Calligraphy. He’d take me to exhibitions (like the ones in Seyhoon Gallery). He’s a Civil Engineer but told me he would want to become an Architect if he could have afforded it by the time he was a student. * * * I have been a member of Sharif University Swimming Team for 4 years now. We have brought home several national trophies and medals. prior to this I was always engaged in national competitions and swimming events. I was a member of Payaam Swimming Team.( My Coaches: Mrs Solati, Mahnaz Ghoddousi, Leila Sabaghian ) In 2003 I received my Life Guard certificate issued by Life Saving and Diving Federation of Islamic Republic of Iran . Synchronized Swimming is something I have had in mind for a while but haven't found the time for yet. I like Diving. Although Swimming is my favorite sport ever I also enjoy practicing Karate . I received my lessons in Karate(Ishin Rio) in Dr. Mehrad Nakhaie's Centre (Niavaran St. , Tehran , Iran ) under the supervision of Mrs. Keyhan. I play tennis in summer and go skiing with my friends in winter. Shemshak is my favorite skiing resort (I miss high school days so much ) I play the Piano . I adore Mozart's Sonnets and Chopin's Nocturnes. Throughout the years Leila Parsa , Shura Aghaie and Sina Fallahzadeh have been my piano tutors. Kamal Taravati thought me Theory of music , Solfege and Orf. I am always taking photos, you could ask any of my friends about it. They will frown and nod in agreement. I guess I have a classic taste in arts; whether in paintings, music, Calligraphy or decoration.
