AEU (Wednesday 3rd October 2007)‎

The first starving day at Arab European University was awful. So tired and so rid of ‎everything! And it is almost guilt of Arabesk turn over: The night I came to Baramkeh ‎house, the bed I should take from the polish guy that was living was still occupied. But ‎it was still amazing to discover a new build university in the middle of the desert after ‎‎45’ bus trip! It looks like an American modern campus with palms, grass and high tech ‎buildings. I will experiment only 2 days on the Arabic Language Centre of this private ‎Syrian college because courses do not fit to my way of learning instead of being ‎cheaper than the public university. Other particularity, the week is scheduled as ‎Saturday to Wednesday as working days when all Syria week is from Sunday to ‎Thursday! (Some people say ‎ديمشق مجنون‎, Dimasq Majnoun as ‘crazy Damascus’…)‎
On the evening, the first Arabic meal at home…made on the Danish way by Pelle ‎‎(from Copenhagen): lens soup, dates, etc... ‎
