First Experience

This week was the first I got to know University life in... being away from the house was something that delighted me before... however now that I know how different it is I start to get homesick... I start missing the city life... I am so not a country girl... Nizwa Uni is in the middle of nowhere and the students living there are just different... they're definitely country girls... the only thing I look forward to is the lessons and activities... so far the professors appear to be pretty good...
What I'm looking forward to even more is the new constructions and buildings that'll be built for the future plans of Nizwa Uni. Said to be ready in around a year... the uni will take place in a completely different area.
Another thing that amazed me was the technology. Every student gets an electronic card to be used around for almost anything... from buying things to ordering... what you do is fill the card like you fill up credit in your prepaid Hayyak.
Aside from that is the Library... they have ebooks we could read through the emails we'll get through the university... so we can take and read the books whether we're there or anywhere outside...
The other thing is the wireless connection available all around the area... so you can use your laptop anywhere in the Uni whether it be in or out and still have a connection.
I believe there's more to come... but these things are pretty promising already... ;)

Just The Beginning

And the story continues... this'll consist of most of what happened so far since I haven't updated for quite a while now...
I've been cherishing every moment I spent in Muscat before moving into Nizwa. NizwaUniversity will be where I'll study this time... I must say I am quite curious... the impression I got was good so far... so I'm not disappointed at all... will see how it turns out to be.

In addition... for the sake of getting it over with, I sent my books to the bookshop of Al-Batra in Markaz Al-Wadi for sale... I guess they were almost rotting in my room I had to do something about them... now they can be found in all Al-Batra's bookstores in Shatti, Al-Khouth, Qurum and Bustan Hotel... so that was a start I guess.

Back to the Uni subject... one part of me is curious and the other part will miss its friends there... being away from them murders... but I guess I'll be able to see them on weekends...

on a third note... I still don't have a laptop of my own and it's starting to annoy me that I can't come online as often as I used to... I might not make more updates for still another week...

For the rest... I'll update further news when I get the chance :)
