Crying on the Street

Hi again,

When we arrived here , everything was different, the life style and how everything is running. I thought i will struggle with this different life in the UK but it was simple, just do it in order and stay organised and keep everything in mind and work harder.





First i decided to discover Nottingham and search for a house, it was not hard but not easy. I went to the University in the first day, and it was a good start knowing new people and see how it is going to be in the course. One thing i hate here is walking,
i hate walking but thank you god there are buses but some times when i wake up late in the morning and go to the bus stop and wait in that cold weather i almost kill my self loooools.






The first month was good and everything is going in the right way, but i started to miss my family and feel lonely. Once i went to have a cigarette outside the house late at night and thinking about my mother and father, i stayed outside there for two hours of depression just crying and thinking about them, i did not feel my self and it was very cold, but there were good feelings after all that crying and sadness. I came here just to make them proud of me and that is the only thing that gives me the power to go ahead and succeed.

No Gains without Pains

When i had the chance to study in the UK i was like a child, asking everyone who had an experience there, searching in the webs to find out what should i do and where i can go . I found good info but it was not enough for me.


I was staying all the night awake just thinking about this new country. I had some problems to get everything completed and once i was full of difficulties and i had a car accident in front of the British Consulate, i went home and told my mother i gave up I'm not going . She was encouraging me and said ''No Gains without Pains'' then she left me alone. I was thinking this hard i can not do this but when she said that it was like waking me up from a nightmare.

After all that everything was ready and my flight is in the next day. I was sad because of leaving my family and my country. My sister did a party for me but i was sitting with them and show them that I'm happy. When i was ready to go to the airport, it was a hard moments. I was hardly holding my tears and trying to save them from falling in front of my mother.


To Be Continued

First Time

Hi everyone, This is me Mohammed and welcome to my blog.
To be honest, this is my first time writing about me and my life so forgive me if there are
any mistakes or something like that.

First i want to talk about my self , i was born in Alnamas which is located in the south of Saudi. I lived there for 8 years then me and my family moved to Jeddah. I love music, movies, food, cars and any thing related to it, traveling, met new people and make different friendships and many things that i can enjoy.
I'm a student in KAU but now i study in The UK in the Universty of Nottingham. I have learned alot here - in the UK - and my life became different and my personality as well.



I miss my family especially Mom and my little sister Mariam, she is two years old now, when i first traveld to the UK she was trying to talk but not clearly and now she is speaking alot but in a children's language. A month ago, my mouther phoned me and said there is someone wants to talk with you, she was Mariam saying my name ''hammad .. hammad .. we went to the sea and there were alot of water'', she was repeating that sentence and i was speechless and could not say a ward. I was almost crying and want to respond to her but i could not, I was happy and sad in the same time. I miss her and miss all of my family and friends and Jeddah.

see you in the next blog
