  • birth

    birth
    I was born in a small village called Guliana, my mom gave labor in the house since there weren't any hospitals in our village. I have no record of how much i weighed or anything since there were no recordings but i was a very healthy child according to my mother. I was breastfed from the begining and developed normally.
  • Begining

    Begining
    I am not sure about the date or the event here. But i just wanted to mention that i was born in a poor village so there were no playgrounds for kids or toys or television or anything. i was jut born in a regular village family, we had a couple of cows and a dog i believe.
  • Elementry school

    Elementry school
    I am not sure about the exact date when i started school. There were barely any school in the village that i was born and i remember i had to walk a lot to finally get to the school. one story that i very much remember from this school is that someone stole a cookie that i got for lunch, from my bagpack and i told the teacher. The teacher made everyone empty their bagpack and search for it.
  • School in city

    School in city
    Schools in city were totally different than what i had in the village, i remember in the village you would have to sit on the floor and they had desks in city schools. I started going to a private school which was very high standard than the public schools.
  • Moved to city

    Moved to city
    we moved to lahore, which was the closest major city. We moved their because my parents thought that the education and oppertunity for job is a lot more in a city than the village. My mom in particular wanted my siblings and i to have a bright future so she took us in a city and put us in a better school.
  • Middle school

    Middle school
    i was in middle school around that time, i have very vivid memories from this phase of my life. I was very skinny and nerdy. Used to be the top of my class in every year. Since i was in a private school, the boys and girls were in same class together. Public schools had boys and girls in different schools. I was a very smart student from the begining and my parents were very strict in this area. My middle school was about half the size of my house, no gym, no computers not playground.
  • Coming to United States

    Coming to United States
    My family moved to the United States in the year 2006, i had no knowledge of the culture, people or the language of this country. I was unaware of how the schools are going to be, and everything else. It was just a total shock, everything was just totally different. We first moved to Belleville, Mi and lived in a small apartment.
  • School in the USA

    School in the USA
    I started high school in the USA right from the begining. I didn't know any english and was too scared to talk to anyone. It was one of the hardest years of my life, it was very difficult to get used to an enviornment which was totally opposite of where i was raised. I took advance classes from the begining to push myself and learn faster.
  • Canton

    Canton
    We moved to canton, mi and i started going to PCEP high school in canton. I was the only asian student in belleville high school, but when we moved to canton i saw so much diversity. I started making more friends and started learning the language and culture a lot quicker. By the time i was in my junior year i was fluent with the language and had gotten used to everything else.
  • Graduating High school

    Graduating High school
    I graduated from high school with a GPA of 3.66. I flunked my junior year but my GPA was very good freshmen, sophmore and senior year.
  • College

    I started at Schoolcraft college right after i graduated from High School, i was working towards my undergraduates in Psychology and was planning to transfer in a few semesters.
  • Badminton

    I was very much a sports person from the beginging, when i was little i used to Play cricket in Pakistan and after coming to the United States i started playing badminton. Badminton is now a key part of my life, i play badminton 3 to 4 times a week and has participated in 3 interstate tournaments.
  • University

    I should have my undergraduated done by this year, since i am taking over the limit credits, i have already gotten 50 credits in 4 semesters, and i will be transfering to Wayne State university after this one. I am going to be carry my study on psychology as it is my major.
  • Med School

    By 2013, i hope to be in Medical School. This is my ultimate goal that i been working hard for day and night. I want to be a surgeon and Medical school would be a very successful momment for me.
  • Marriage

    Right after i finish my Medical school and start residency, i want to get married. Although i think this is a very late age for marriage, as i would be 24 years old, i think its important to be able to keep your family comfortable and afford things for them. I don't want to have kids when i am not working and later run into problems.
  • Child

    This would be another major psyhological event in my life other than marriage. I have always imagined and made my smile thinking of how amazing it would be to be a father. How it would feel to be called dad by a very cute little daughter. This event in my life would probably be the most important one.
  • Professional badminton player

    This has also been one of my goals, i am in love witht the sport of badminton, i want to carry my passion at professional level and get training with pros. I have been playing badminton for 4 years now, and i believe 7 years from now, i will be on my biological peak and my body will be very strong to play at a professional level.
  • Surgeon

    I want to be able to finish my specialization in general surgery. I want to than work towards becoming a neurosurgeon. This to me is the biggest place i could see myself, educationally. I also want to become a role model for my kids and have them look up to their dad and work towards bigger goals in their life.
  • Pilgrimage

    This is a very important religous event. I practice Islam, and anyone who can afford or has the resources to travel to Makkah, Saudi Arabia and pay a visit to the Holly Kabbah must do it once in his/her lifetime. This is unarguably the biggest occasion of my life religiously. I want to do that as soon as possible, as i don't know when i will die. I will try to earn and save as much money as possible so i can get this out of the say as soon as possible.
  • Raising kids and spending time with family

    This is a vital part of my life, i want to spend as much of my life possible, with my kids and family. This is important for the growth of my children, since kids need to be attached to their dad. I understand my role in the psyholgical developement of my children and i think spending a lot of time with them is a very important thing.
  • Hospital

    I want to open a hospital in the village that i was born in. When i was born, there was no electricity or any technological equipment for doctors. Making a hospital in my village has been a dream for me and my dad, when i am old and have enough money in my bank that i can make a hospital, this would be amazing.
  • Kids and parents

    I want to have 4 to 5 kids by than and live happy with my wife. I want to not work as much and spend more time with my family, i will be living in a huge house with my parents as i think it is very important to keep my parents with me and not put them in a nursing or old age home. I think parents need the kids to take care of them, just like they did when kids were little.
  • Kids Marriage

    This would also be a fun occasoin, although its kind of hard to imagine it, since i am not even married. But i wonder how my kids will be and how their marriage will be like. I would love my kids to be tradional and learn the values that i learned from my parents, and this is what i will be teaching them.
  • Retirement

    I think this would be an age where i wouls start thinking about retirement, i would be old enough to quit job and enjoy the rest of my life with my kids and wife. My kids will be working and earning money by than so i don't think i would need to work.
  • Death

    I hope i am able to live that long, its kind of scary to talk about my own death but its the assignment requirment. I will keep playing badminton and keep myself physically fit, i want to avoid eating unhealthy and junk food, so i can live longer. i hope i have my wife with me for as long as i live, i am already sad thinking how it would be like to live without my wife. But i hope that i have accomplished many goals before i die, goals like, becoming a doctor, having kids, raising the kids well.
