Q: Why did you come to America and choose UA?
A: I came to America because I wanted a better education, and I came to UA because of the Mercedes factory. I want to work there when I’m done with school.
Q: What do you like about campus?
A: What do you not like about campus? There’s a lot of students here, and they are all really nice. The thing I don’t like about campus is that since I live near to BB Comer there are a lot of smokers nearby, and cigarettes are left everywhere.
Q: What’s the biggest difference from your home country?
A: The classes here are all taken together and in Saudi Arabia the boys study separate from the girls. I like the fact that the classes are co-ed here.
Q: How do you feel about American food?
A: American food is very good. I eat it almost every day. Sometimes I cook traditional Saudi Arabian food with rice and chicken or lamb but it takes a very long time to prepare, and here it’s like 10 minutes and it’s ready to go. It’s crazy. My favorite thing to eat is the tacos.
Q: How do you feel about football?
A: Football? Sorry, but it sucks. It’s so boring. Soccer is my favorite, but you know football. I went to the stadium last year, and I hated myself for it. Really. I left, I actually left. There was the first hour where everyone was crazy and then no more. I was just so bored, and I left. It got less exciting as the time went by, you know?
