YOOOO SUP WIT IT BOYZ N GIRLZ. 

I know what your thinking: "Farza, bro, this email is three days late. Wtf is going on? Why are you so late? Why are you not worth millions of dollars yet? Why are you so ugly? Why aren't you eating more bananas when you KNOW potassium is vital to the human heart".

And friends, I apologize. I'm actually currently visiting my parents in my hometown of Pembroke Pines (Florida) + working from home. My mom gets mad when I'm on my computer to long so I'm trying to spend the max # of hours of working before she kicks me off. Currently writing this email from a secret place she can't find me.

I'll have a much fuller update this Sunday :). I'm working on lots of cool tech problems that I'm hyped to tell you guys about. The company is making huge strides every week. 

For this week, I just want to talk a little bit about where I grew up. I know this isn't the content you subscribed for but idc stfu okay it's all I can write about rn.

Honestly of all the places I’ve ever lived and visited my hometown is still my favorite place to be in general. There really isn’t anything special about it and most people my age would define it as an agonizingly boring city. It’s just a plain suburb outside of Miami. But, I think I like Pembroke Pines a lot because nothing very eventful ever happens there. The experience of living in Pines is whatever you make of it. For example, in New York and San Francisco stuff is always happening around you. Parties, tech meetups, group yoga classes, you name it. In these cities the action comes to you and there are already thousands of cool things for you to do. It’s extremely easy to lose your creative because thousands of new ideas and experiences are just being fed to you. 

But, in Pines, none of that shit exists LOL. You need to have a certain amount of ingenuity and set the trends yourself. That’s why I love Pines. It’s a blank slate. You need to be a self-starter and the one that makes waves, else, you end up just as normal as the city you grew up in.
