Sorry for the disappearing act but I have been kinda snowed with the whole uni thing of late... Assignments, presentations, exams this time of year is a bit stressy in this house to be honest and its all because of mummy (how sad I know). anyway.... So those of you that don't know I am studying for my Masters Degree in Information Systems Management (not as scary as it sounds... ok wait some of it is!). The thing is that I am learning so much more than just my units at uni.  I am meeting these amazing people from all over the globe and getting the opportunity to understand their religions and cultures as well. My uni group is made of people from all over the globe.  We have people from Iran, Saudi Arabia, China, Malaysia, Indonesia, the Phillippines and India to name a few.  And its so interesting! Learning about arranged marriages, different foods and beliefs, some of the restrictions that they face in their country that we so take for granted here. These people are really brave in my opinion.  They leave their family and friends and come here to further their education so that they can provide more support for their families in the long run. Just imagine it for a second, you leave everyone you love and know, go to a foreign country that speaks a different (difficult) language, has different methods of education, the pressure to not only study but work to live (read that as don't work too much, you can only earn a certain amount while your here as a student). So so brave if you ask me.
