Konichiwa Y'all
MarHabn [Hello],
For those who do not yet know, I have gone back to school. I missed the student lifestyle of lying in bed half the day ('Half? More like three-quarters', I hear you all say. Yeah yeah.). I also missed meeting people. I made many of my best friends at uni and it's hard to really meet people in Dubai: a lot of the people you speak to are simply on holiday or already have a core of close friends.
Anyway, I am now enroled at The University of Wollongong, Dubai, also known as UOWD. It's an Australian institution that has opened an international campus in the Middle East. I am studying twice a week in order to attain a Beginners' certificate in Arabic Language, Culture & Customs. I have been going now for four weeks and in my final class next week I have an exam, so I suggest you get those Mabrouk [congratulations] cards at the ready.
Not a great deal happened since last week. I spent my weekend voluntarily sitting in traffic for four hours because I was that bored. Weekends are rubbish when you have nobody to play with. I drove to the Plant Souk on the other side of Dubai and bought some plants to decorate my bedroom - and before you ask, no they do not require a hydroponic light. I actually bought the only two (legal) plants that I know: a cactus and a bonzai.
