Well, I have another blog now. As some of you may know, I used to have one that I deactivitated a year ago while at Modern Knowledge Schools. Reasons as to why I deactivated it was clear, what I said caused some people to be hurt. It was a decision that I took then because I did not want to hurt anyone. The intention of speaking my mind back then was not to hurt anyone, but when blogging became personal to someone I consider a friend, I knew then it was beyond acceptable; the act of speaking my mind. However, now, the circumstance are different.
I am now a freshman at The University of British Columbia in the Okanagan. Something that is often heard is one university - two campuses. Yes, this is very much true. I applied here as my first choice and being here at UBC O is not because I did not get acceptance in the Vancouver campus. Today, I am very happy with the decision I took of applying here. This place is simply put - great or awesome as most Canadians say.
Speaking about decisions, I noticed that this word is repeated in this post thus far. Life as well will always ask us to make decisions. As the new year is about to come, the end of the decade is in 4 days. Me putting up a new blog is a decision I am taking for 2010. This blog will allow me to express my new journey in the part of my life. I will only hope to share my experiences as often as possible through my blog, another way of saying: I promise to update as often as I can.
I'll leave you with these photos of me that represent my journey hitherto. Some of you may wonder why the name of the blog is as such. Well, it is simple as well. In Bahrain while at my first school ANIS I was called Abdulrahman which is my given name. At MKS I was Hamani a nickname that I go by since birth. Now, however at UBC O, I am Abdul - a very short form for my given name.
Now - UBC O Student
May 2009 - High School Graduate at MKS
May 2007 - Grade 10 ANIS
