Back to Boston
I was born in Boston, Massachusetts on 19 Jan 1979. My parents are Persian (Iranian) and at '79, my father was the professor assistant of endocrinology at Tufts. Just 3 weeks after my birth, Iran revolution has been took place. Therefore, a few month later, my parent came back to Iran to help revolutionists make a better country. Actually I was with them.
I grew up in Tehran, went to school, bombing with Saddam in Iraq-Iran war (1980-1989), went to high school, apply for medical school at Shaheed Beheshti University of Medical Sciences (SBMU), married, became a general physician, received a gift from God as a daughter, and after all, decided to back to my birth city, Boston.
It took me 2 years to prove I was born in United States and got my American passport.
Then, because of Iran lows, I went to army duty – of course as a doctor – for 1 year and 4 months.
Now, in December of 2009, I am back to Boston, and I can celebrate my birthday in my home town after 30 years.

Long Distance Neighbors
We're two friends who grew up next door to each other in a neighborhood full of families who cared about and looked out for everyone's kids. We're both wives and mothers now and even though we don't live close by we still talk almost every day and consider ourselves long distance neighbors. We strive to raise our children with the same kinds of values we were raised with and this blog helps us keep track of it all.

picture/day
me and my boyfriend recently moved to Boston for scientific research at harvard. we both are from the netherlands. my blog shows one picture each day about our new life here, accompanied by a small description. it does not have a general theme, mostly it is about what happened that day, or what i saw on the street. i try to depict boston-life as we, as outsiders, see it.
i like to take pictures, unfortunately do not know anything about cameras... although i wish i did!

Ward 5 Online
In an age where any person or organization can have a website, it takes a lot to give readers a reason to choose one over the other. Ward 5 online is proving to surpass the rest with an interactive site that has real-time update capabilities and an informative and non-bias format that has something for everyone. This website was created solely to provide information to readers about Ward 5 in Somerville (Massachusetts), advertise events in/about Ward 5 or that Ward 5 residents would be interested in.
Although we do include a picture and contact information for our ward representatives (Alderman and School Committee), this site does not endorse their candidacy or support past, present, or future decisions, statements, or actions including (but not limited to) quotations reported by media outlets, voting patterns, and nonpolitical behavior or business. Their inclusion on this site is for informational purposes only.
This website was started to provide information to the readers, as well as, to promote our ideology of neighbor helping neighbor. It is the belief of all associated with Ward 5 Online that bridging the gaps brings us together in community!
