Time is Winding Down

In Iran, anything you can buy has a hub where all the stores for any given ware exists. We were at the one for books and stuff cause I was getting books for my research, and I found Barack Obama's books translated to Farsi!

Well friends, I'm at less than 2 weeks left in Iran. I can't believe time has gone by so quickly! I've become obsessed with this Iranian painter, Farshchian, who paints these beautiful paintings called miniatures, but they aren't actually miniatures and I don't know why they call them that. Anyways, they are gorgeous and I've gone crazy for the posters.

Also started buying DVDS (at a dollar a piece). I also got a DVD copy of Up, which I have to say was a very cute movie. I liked it a lot. I only bought like 6 the last time I was out, but I have plans to go out again sometime in the near future as soon as this damn dust storm gets out of Iran.

&hugs,

Mona
