AN UNKNOW LOVE

Once up on a time there was a guy doing his college degree in Kabul, his name was Mansoor, Mansoor was dealing with a lot of problems, starting from his studies all the way to being away from home, family and his own province.

Mansoor has his relative’s apartment just 3 miles away from his college compound; he was having some of his off days to his relative’s apartment, Mansoor somehow felt himself so close to this and Mansoor thought he has some deep feeling about someone lived in that family called “Sarah”, Mansoor was saying to himself “Sarah is the only one I’m going to spend my whole life with”, he never thought of any kind of failures that can happen to his journey. Sometimes he was so lost inside Sarah, he was even in love with every single word that was coming out of Sarah’s mouth, and Sarah’s voice was like a voice of an angle for him.

Mansoor was coming to nearby areas almost every single off days he had, but he never got some private time to see Sarah somewhere outside their apartment, Sarah had no idea that she was very much loved by someone special like Mansoor, and of course Mansoor was looking for some special place and time to tell her how much he loves her.

Time was passing by and every single moment for Mansoor was like a year, and being in Afghanistan Mansoor just couldn’t go to Sarah’s apartment and tell her or her family that how much he loves her. Mansoor was listening to friend’s love stories and he was also interested in watching love story movies, he was just starving for Sara’s love. Mansoor knew that Sarah wasn’t perfect for everybody out there, because everybody’s feeling varies. If Mansoor was supposed to take Sarah’s picture to one of his friends and ask for his idea he would just say” You’re stupid to love this girl”, but for Mansoor she was just meant a different world.

Perhaps Sarah had no idea about Mansoor’s feelings and she might not even expect something like that from Mansoor, but Mansoor was still waiting for some special occasion like Eid celebration or some kind of weddings, eventually Mansoor got to a point where he could just talk with his eyes, in other words, there was a wedding celebration and Mansoor was also invited there, while Sarah was also there for this wedding; the only opportunity Mansoor got was just to stare at Sarah’s eyes secretly, “I’m really into her and I’m going to marry her” said Mansoor to himself, and Sarah’s might have felt the same way as she was staring back; and that was the only and last time they saw each other like that.

As Mansoor was having some of his off days to Sarah’s family apartment, he just got the most disastrous news ever in his life that ruined his whole imagination about her future love life. Mansoor finally and unforgivingly find out that Sarah was just engaged with someone who just had money and might or might not have been perfect person to get married or engaged with and finally she was a victim of arranged marriage.

When Mansoor heard this news he was just not himself like months or so, he still uncontrollably was thinking about her.

Hello to all MyEC members and whoever reads my EC blog, sorry to bother you all by posting kind of unrelated topic in here, but somehow this was my personal problem. NO one could help me even though I surfed the net, but finally I find it by my own. So what I'm doing right now is share my experience with other fellow(Afghans) who are in need of this kind of help, and practicing English of course.

Here is what you have to do;

First of all you have to activate your internet on your iPhone,  “write internet on your APN of cellular Data”, and by adding 999 Afs, then sending an SMS of “AWCC INTERNET” to (999) you’ll get a confirmation of your GPRS activation by coming 24 hours.

Once you’ve got your internet activated then proceed with the following steps.

1. Go to Settings, General, Network, and cellular data.
2. Write “internet” on APN of Internet tethering.
3. Come back to network your Internet Tethering will be activated.
4. Then by pressing the tethering on you’ll have the option using it with Bluetooth or USB cable but I have used with the Bluetooth works very good. And if you are using the cable I think you have to have iTunes installed on your computer.

I hope the following picture can better help!

Thanks a lot

If you get to any kind of difficulties just let me know, I'd love to be helpful.

Prague which is the capital of Czech republic has a wonderful and classic views and scenes, the people are nice around here, but there only one thing missing they can’t speak English, last weekend we were lost in the downtown Prague, we started to take a train in the city to get us where we wanted to get, in fact that train was going to the opposite side of the city which we were not aware of; we started looking for help and there was one lady with her son onboard with we asked her son for help by asking “Do you speak English?” he didn’t reply any word, I think her mother later on notice that we needed help so she came over to us asking “Do you need help” surprisingly we said “Yes please!”, Then she started to help us out by what we needed, she showed us how to take a train to the right direction and position on downtown (even though she couldn’t speak English and I could see her trying to find out about the words in English and repeating words in her language).

One weird thing though is when you ask someone “If they can speak English” their reply would be “NO” without any thinking, what make is funny and curious for me is that how do you understand the “Do you speak English” then.

Anyways the city that I live in is called Pardubice, It’s a nice city just two hours’ drive from Prague International Airport, again very limited English speakers. I was thinking that learning English would help me everywhere around the world; not noticing that there are people that still don’t know, want to know or speak English. We have been told that most of the young generation around her talks and understands English, which in some cases doesn’t apply or if even apply with limited understanding of English. That has been said we were asking a young lady where the grocery store was by starting “Do you speak English” she replied back “Very small” uh very funny for me but at least helpful.

The season is fall, which the weather is most likely like spring, one of my favorite seasons of the year except getting colder during fall, and the weather is just awesome now! It’s been like six days that I’ve been here and haven’t seen the sun yet, and it’s not pleasant for some of my colleagues here. I like the trees with their yellow leaves falling to the ground and make a really romantic scene.

Czech Republic has better transportation system compared to US; I think this system applies to all European countries. Trains are the most convenient way of traveling to in Europe. Last week we traveled from Pardubice to Prague and it took us like one hour to get there and I think it’s like one and a half or two hours by car. My first experience of riding a train was in New York in Dec 2010, and it’s mostly underground metros or subways. I think that there are two types of trains in Europe, one is fast and the other one is just a regular one.
