Tell my teachers..
Samia Mardini, Nadia Khiyami, Peter Gordon, Kevin Beares, Micheal Manser, Fawaz
Jumean, Cindy Gunn, Doctor Jalal, Kassem, Tamer, Doctor Afaf, Doctor Nasrin, all
my school teachers,
Each one of you taught me something and/or acknowledge something in me,
Dr. Jalal: for teaching us more importnat stuff than our
studies. "Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that
matter"
.
Dr. Afaf: "Never mix between your personal life and your
studies!"
Fawaz Jumean: "Never lose hope my son, you have the potential!"
Cindy Gunn: "Sorry Tareq, this is the part I hate about my
job!"
Doctor Nasrin: you were the only one who understood my
philosophy in life! "Get admitted to MIT Tareq, you can do it"
Kevin Beares: "Just thinking of getting admitted to MIT is
itself an accomplishment!"
Your, so called, philosophy meant a lot to me, it wasn't philosophy to me, it
was a lot of what I build my personality based upon...
Geoff Richardson: "Your parents are so lucky to have a son like
you!"
Peter Gordon: "Tareq, the vibrance of the youth!", " Tareq, you
should be a teacher, you are a great teacher", "No, you did not go wrong. Tareq,
you are one person that I wanna keep in touch with, you are the best student I
have ever had in my 38 years of teaching, but getting such grades would really
make me feel bad..."
"You are a great teacher.
""You are one of my greatest students, but those grades is something that I DO
NOT ACCEPT!!!"
I loved learning because of you, you're the only one who understood what I
wanted in this life.
Ismail: "I only care about my friends and tell them when they
do something wrong. You are a fried, will you take it???? I hope you won't do
what you did this semster, you know the reason, maybe the council, maybe
something else, nobody knows, only you do, the important thing is not to do the
same mistake over... :)"
Deemz: "No Tareq, I know what you are and what you can do. Over
all, I know you can do it! I hate seeing you like that!"
"Tareq, the only thing that prevents me from getting married or engaged is that
I am afraid we won't be able to be friends the way we are right now. Will you
always be there for me no matter what happenes?"
Saty: "If you were stupid, then that's fine, Tarek, I only care
about my friends! If you didn't mean a lot to me, I wouldn't have said it..."
Nadia: "I have never had a student who is so passionate about a
language and learns so fast the way you do!"
Sandrella: "Tareq, forget everything, you can think of
everything later. You can do it, I know you can. Tareq, I believe in you"
Eisa: "Don't ask about my exams, mashhi el 7al, wallah lak
wa7sha!"
