Apartment Description

I am describing the pictures below. The first picture shows my apartment building. I am on the fourth floor of the apartment. I have a parking spot under the building, but I don't use it since I don't have a car. The second picture shows the apartment entrance. I have to call security so they can unlock the glass doors to let me in. The third picture is my hallway. I am at the end of the hall on the left. The fourth picture shows my kitchen table, couch, and computer. The last picture shows my bedroom.

TAMUQ Campus

I am describing the following pictures below. The first picture is of Trevor and me standing at the entrance to the Texas A&M building in Education City. The second picture shows an artistic indoor pool that is located in the hallway between clases. Notice the guard at the door entrance. The third picture shows a marble stairwell in the school. The fourth picture looks like triangles coming out of the ground. The triangles are actually air vents that allow air to blow through the underground parking garage. The last picture in the column shows 1 of 4 courtyards located inside the A&M building.

TAMUQ Campus Entrance


First Week in Qatar

I have arrived in Qatar and found it to be hot and sandy. I have been furnished with a 2 bedroom 1.5 bath on the fourth floor of an apartment 15 minutes from school. The school is pretty neat and has a rec center that has an olympic-size swimming pool and a weight room. So far I have been working out every day with two other grad students that came with me from College Station: Trevor and Jagannath.
