About Me

This is a part of my autobiography, previously on this website, actually I thought friends may miss this old text! Here is the original copy.

Autobiography

This is Hooman Taherinia; e-acquaintances mostly know me by Hoomant (pronounced “hu:mæn-tɪ:“) nickname, and sometimes by Hoom. My surname is Taherinia (pronounced “tɔ: herɪ nɪɔ:“), which my father chose instead of Daamibaba.

I’ve been born in Nov 24, 1985, Tehran – Iran. My stellar is Sagittarius, and I deadly love it so very much!

As a challenge, if you want to see my photo, web locations below at “E-Reach Me”, or Google me in web images.

I went to public elementary school, Alborz, and I spent my middle school in private Emaamat, Vali’e Asr, Sama 2 schools. I went to private high school, Sama 1, which all we students call it Hotel Sama!

I passed my 3rd grade during the summer between 2nd and 4th grade, because I was born in second half of the year, and couldn’t enroll 1st grade as other first-half-borned kids; and it was my boost time!

When I was going to 6th grade (middle school), my father bought me a PC, 486 DX2, instead of a gaming console. And it was beginning of my future! Thanks to my parents, I realized my reallity.

Just 6 months after that, I was coding with QBASIC, and on 9th month, I was on C, Pascal and using FoxPro scripts. When I was in the middle of middle school, I was a VB, C++ and VC++ programmer. Beginning of high school was my virtual networks life beginning with BBSs, which were mostly served with Worldgoup™ software created by Galacticomm. While I was a programming freelancer, I felt in love with hacking and cracking, by networks stimulus. So I got familiar with Assembly, and it was my pleasure to crack softwares, for personal uses only. That time (and still), there was no copyright concept in Iran, and it was the reason that all the computers had illegal copies of Microsoft®’s and other companies’ softwares for free!

When we moved to our current appartment, there was no phone line, and in results, no internet or any network access for me! So I got isolated from cyberspace, when I was 15.

I remember that I couldn’t stand by school classes, and although my marks were above average, I wasn’t mentally involved with classes, and I had to let my imagination fly, otherwise I was doomed to dull!

Anyway, life went on, and I found myself in front of national university entrance exam. It is the most valued exam for people in our country, and it means future to most of them. Shortly, I passed it and qualified to get into Sharif University of Technology which was the highest ranked and reputable university of Iran. My major was mathematics, applied mathematics. Before that, I wanted to study electrical engineering. When I started going to university, for a while I tried to get into CS major, but changed my mind.

At university, I got more involved with Java programming, and with my friends Ali Akbari, Omid Aladini and Arash Fattahi, began SchoolJava.
I taught so many Java courses for high school students, teachers and atendees at SchoolJava club, and I’ve been teaching assistant of Java and C++ programming in our math and CS department. All those days, eventually, led me to JavaForce.com™, which is founded by Ali and I.

Currently I’m out of school, kind of dropped out.

Since I was in mid-school, I fell into forming my fundamental, philosophical, idealogical mindset, and point of view. I love thinking, and all these made me solidly stable, systematic, open and loyal, to my principles.

I’ve been always free in my situation, and my thoughts and beliefs, and if it wasn’t sometimes, I’d striven persistently for that. I see no reason to limit my imaginations, desires and creativity. I can’t endure inabilities and thinking of something as it’s impossible. I totally live in freedom and abundance.

I’m spritual in my own ways, but not religious at all. I believe that the god who has created me, is created by my thoughts; implicitly, everyone is the one’s own God. Philosophically speaking, after some introductions which I may include later, we may don’t exist separated and we’re all of one thought (NO DEBATES ABOUT IT, PLEASE JUST FORGET IT). I absolutely uphold others beliefs, and keep mine personal.

I think I’m so persistent about my visions and goals, and flexible to achieve them.
By the way, I have exact clear definitions for my keywords, which are critical to me. One of those definitions is for word “persistence”; I have Winston Churchil’s quote for it: “Never, Never, Never give up”, and by saying “never”, I mean “NEVER”.

There used to be a twisted-end mustache on my face, it was funny and rare face, some kind of brand for me! I’m 171cm of height (5′7″), and my body is athletic, and I got dark-brown hair.

This “About Me” is now so egotistical, and this way, I want to thank you for enduring that; really didn’t want to be this way, and will put time to correct it.
