Exclamation ChuppyGirl Diary in Leeds - part I

Hi there,

As per everybody's request here I am sharing my diary's in Leeds. Well we've arrived safely to Leeds - UK on Sep 10th it was midnight, after hmmm I guess it was like over 12 hours flight with 4-5 hours stop in Heathrow airport.

We stayed in the Marrion Hotel for about hmmm 4 days during that while I have registered in the school and issued my student ID hehehe I will scan and post it later.. and looked for many accommodations and non of the close by houses were clean, new and decent and I found out that English people have big issue with spaces and also with number of toilets in the house heheheh it should be 1 bathroom or it's a biggi! anyhow it took us a while until we found my flat which I described in another post

it has 4 bedrooms (including 4 bathrooms) was purposely designed for 4 students to share the flat, it has modern and new fully furnished kitchen that has a stove, oven, fridge, freezer but no microwave no dish washer, no laundry washer and dryer!

OK thge No list can go longer if you bare with me hehhehe no TV set, no TV satellite connection, no free internet access, hmmm no pets, with all the noise my kids are making it might be in the near future no baby's in the premises hehehehe. 5 minutes walk from my school and very close to bus stations that take you to Leeds city center. Grocery shop is like 3 minutes in the bus far. if you are a good shopper like we are you'd probably need to take a taxi back home.

I'm also 1 minute away from the art and design library which most probably will be my second home if I didn't kick the kids and hubby back to Kuwait coz they're really too noisy for exam days hehehe

OK here are some pictures I'd love to share with you


This is my flat complex, I live in the 1st floor good thing if the elevator is broken I can climb the stairs!



and across the street is Parkinson Building that has that big clock actually if I wanna know what time is it in my bedroom I just need to open the window and know what time is it hehehehe. This building has the medicine school, nutritional school, big library, PC cluster that opens until 9:30PM.



In fact my 5 months picture was just the building to the right of the Parkinson building. I'm impressed by the arcitecture there too.



I'll take closer picture of the Parkinson stairs which is infront of couple of fast food restaurant. Most of the students set and have their lunch at the stairs they look so cute, but at night they are not cute at al especially last night and the night before they were too drunk and noisy. if you pass by that area you'd see invitations for Vodca/girls parties I'm really surprised how it's allowed for young students in their age!

Cheers for now.

Later.......

Hanadi

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Cool pictures Chup. Makes me feel like I'm right there with you! I know the noise at night can be annoying. Maybe earplugs?

OK folks here are some other pictures I took the other day on my mobile when I was searching for the sport center in UOL in my way I passed by lovely artificial pond with kinda fountain in it have a look



and also one of the nice building I think the mathematics had an angle crafted on the wall made of bronze I think it's more or less like a dreamy successful student making big leaps of success and his coat is flying behind him. It's tough to analyse it!



Later with more pictures and more adventures

Hey guess what I met Martin my supervisor, we chatted a lil bit in the caf. and he was really impressed by my experience and he offered me a part time job, to be his teaching assistant hehehehe me!!!! I was stunned and speachless I remember I mumbled something but I remember I was saying baby talk hehe I dunno I didn't understand myself but I was trying to thank him! Duh!

Red face Ohhhhh....

How fun!!! I'm sooo excited to hear of all that is going on....So, your flat is very modern I see.....and it sound as if you LOVE it. (well except for the young 'vodka girls'....that is really sad!!) Guess what we have living next door?? (and when I say next door just remember that in NYC - Brooklyn...all the houses touch...so they share side walls....so.....) A guy lives either diagonal upstairs....or right nex door....and he plays the DRUMS!!!! Loud and LATE at night....he didn't begin playing until about 10pm last night!!! (Thank goodness, 'Bella's room is on the other wall.)

Ooooh, you've inspired me to really get my blog updated about our move to NYC!!!

Keep it up...ok chika??
Thanks for the update....now I want to see pictures inside your apartment!!! Esp. that tiny bed!!!
Oooooh we miss our beds!!!!

To live in a college town.
Leeds sounds and looks great...execpt for the young 'uns out on their on for the first time, and having the time of it.
I'd say they are testing their wings, and I sure hope they fly in a good direction.
Looks like you've got some goods and some downers, but all in all, you sound like you are in good hands all around.
May your year go well!!
