Quality of life

The University of Glamorgan has changed and improved many skills that I never thought they would improve. There are improvements such as the way I speak and how I use the English language correctly. I have become more powerful and confident . However, below are some aspects that are affecting my quality of life at Glamorgan University.

• Being homesick is one of the major problems that is affecting my life here in Glamorgan University.
• Not having people from my country in the same class can be a bit hard.
• It is difficult to have time for myself with all the assessments and work that has to be handed on time.
• Not having someone that directs me when I am  lost or having someone to open up with some difficulties I face, for example, my mom.
• The weather is not as it is back in my country, it is extremely cold here and I'm not used to this kind of weather.
• The distance and journey from Cardiff to Treforest is 22 minutes long and it can be exahusting sometimes. I am not used to going on train
• I don't use my own language as I used to do. Now I speak more English than my own langauge which is affecting the way I speak in Arabic.
• Food in my country is different than the food here. I eat food from resturants more than cooked food at home.
