Allow me to introduce myself

My name is Khashaiar Sobhe. I also go by the name Kash in my high school. I am 16 years old and currently am in the 11th grade in Beverly Hills High School. I lived most of my life in Iran. My adventure and new life started when my mom, my brother, and I moved to New York in the summer of 2003 just to visit my uncle and his family. Believing that this was only a trip for a month, I tried to have the best time possible. I started questioning this trip when my older brother (he is 22 now) went to school followed up by me going to the 6th grade P.S. 144 elementary school. My mom told me that this was only for me to make good use of this trip to improve my English. As soon as I came home from the the first day of school, I cried to my mom and told her that girls sat next to me and every one spoke English. I had a culture shock because in my country every one spoke Farsi and beside the fact that boys and girls went to different schools, they all had to wear a scurf. My mom encouraged me to just go to school for few more days.

Being teenagers, it wasn't that hard for my brother and I to adapt to the new environment and culture, but that did not change our assumption of going back to Iran. When my dad came to New York City after he finished his things in Iran, I found out that this whole thing was my family's decision to move to the U.S. and stay here, at least until we finish going to school.

We decide to come to Los Angeles because we love this place. My dad opened up a rug company while my brother further developed his computer skills and ended up opening up his own web designing and SEO (Search Engine Optimization) company while going to California State University Northridge. Learning from my brother's knowledge and skills, I as well became interested in this career and along my brother, I will major in ITIS (Information Technology Information Systems). Every time that I don't go to school, I go to my dad's work and help him out as well as helping my brother out with web designing. I really enjoy helping my dad out and designing websites. The most recent websites I have worked on are www.ShareSchoolNotes.com, and this website which I made to share my thoughts and my view on this changing world. And here I am with my family in the 11th grade living in the U.S. waiting to make my next move.
