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.
