EAP Heritage Day Party

Helloooo everyone~

This is my first time to be in an EAP Heritage Day Party, and it was awesome. I liked many things at that party. There is no doubt the first thing is the food. However, I did not tried any different kinds
of food except the Saudis food. The reason why is because I missed my mother and sisters' food, and it's a big opportunity for my to eat food similar to their food. In fact, I felt like I'm between my mam
and sisters. The Saudis girls' cooking was amazing. I could tell because I'm good at cooking too, but I have no chance to cook at my home stay in Calgary. I have been living alone for about 6 years when I was a
university student in my country. Therefor, I had to cook for my self. Another thing is it's a good time to meet people from all around the world. Finally, I took a lot of pictures at that fabulous party, and I'm going to save them. It will be a nice memory in the future :)

Thank you

Niagara Falls

Hello everyone,

A dream became true, I had repeated this statement many many times after I went to Niagara falls. It was unforgettable trip. Not only because the dream became true but also because I saw Niagara falls from two different angels: Top and Bottom.

First of all, when I saw the falls from the helicopter, I was little frustrated because it looked smaller than I expected. In fact. I did not realized that we were flaying very very high in the sky, so the falls look very small as you can see in the picture below, but the sight from the helicopter was incredible. There are no words that can explain how I felt at that time. As you know the river is a boundary between Canada and America, so I could see some of united states from the air.

From the other angel. It is the closest point to the falls. We used an elevator to get there. Approximately it's 100m or more under the sea surface. Actually, I should have cried because of the happiness I felt at that day.
Finally, I really recommend going there. I'm thinking to go there in winter season, so I can see the falls in totally different view.
Here is some picture of my trip.
Thanks  :)

Toronto



Hi guys,

I traveled to Toronto last weekend to attend a conference. Toronto is a big city. It is beautiful and super busy. The conference was located near by CN tower. This tower considered one of the tallest towers in the world. I traveled around the city. Almost everything is in a hurry. People walk fast, drive fast, and speak fast. I was living at a hotel named Bond Place Hotel. The hotel is very nice, but one of the worker was not polite. For this reason, I started looking for differences between people live in Calgary and Toronto. In fact, the biggest difference is people live in Calgary are much nicer and friendly than people live in Toronto. For example, first problem I had faced is when I was asking for something at the reception of the hotel, the phone rang, and the lady answered with out saying excuse me or give me a second. I was shocked. Another thing is when I was walking in down town, people drive their cars too fast. It was dangerous, and I had to make sure before crossing a street. Finally, at the airport at checking point the lady was shooting at people. She was not friendly at all and angry. I thought that her boyfriend might have cheated on her.  kkkk  :(
 I really really wanted to comeback to Calgary as soon as possible. Yes, sometimes Calgary a little bit boring; however, I really missed it when I was in Toronto. I'm going to do my best to stay in Calgary, and get my Master's degree.

Thank you  :)
