Hello! My name is Adib Masumian; I'm currently a 17-year old student at Stephen F. Austin High School. I am a Junior there and I plan on minoring in Persian Literature, hopefully at the University of Texas. I haven't decided on a major yet, although I might go with something pertinent to Linguistics (although I hope to obtain a doctorate in whatever degree I decide on later), as I have a passion for learning foreign languages and the world as a whole. Yet, it might be more pragmatic to go with International Business; we'll just have to see.
My favorite poets include Hafez, Rumi, and Saadi. I like Omar Khayyam's Rubaiyat as well, but not as much as works such as Saadi's Gulistan and Rumi's Masnavi.
I am a die-hard fan of Persian music, both pop and traditional (Sonati), from singers as early as the era of Badizadeh, Delkash, Banan, and Marzieh (not to mention the legendary pianists Javad Maroufi and Morteza Mahjoubi) to present-day pop singers like Pouya and Shadmehr Aghili. Aside from the few I just mentioned, some of my other favorite Persian singers are Shahrokh, Dariush Eghbali, Shajarian, Googoosh, Giti, Ramesh, Morteza, Moein, Shahram Solati, Fereydoon Farrokhzad, and Fereydoon Foroughi.
I am also a member of the Bahá'í Faith and am currently working on a web document (a book-style sort of thing, I'm not sure how they're referred to) called An Overview of the Bahá'í Faith in my spare time. I'll have a link to it put up here upon its completion.
