To explore the differences between college life in KSU and that one in KFUPM, I went to Dhahran with my cousin and spent tow days in the KFUPM dorm. Now I can understand the difference. When you live in the KFUPM dorm, you live in your own room, while here in KSU we are living in the university housing.
You can do whatever you want in your room. You can paint it the color you want and you can host whoever you want. In the other hand, in the university housing, you are not allowed to stick a poster on the wall!
The KSU housing list of the disallowed things is too long. Here's my favourites:
- No TV
- No guests between 2200-1600
- No modifications to anything in the room
And here's some photos form the trip..
A warning on the door (Exams period, Do Not Enter!)
My cousin is trying to cover all the space with pics, notes, whatever
When it comes to food, my cousin's room-mate is the man
My cousin's room-mate is not a geek, but his mom made him this beautiful curtain, if you like it you can order from here!
Anyway, I may get back to this topic soon after I get back to school. This trip is the reason of my absence of blogging in the past few days. Now I'm back to the job full-time ;) By the way, this is my first post using my new laptop. I know the IBM Thinkpad R32 is not ultra-sexy like the X40, but it's OK for a college student who needed a financial aid from his dad to make it happen :)
