Personality:

I am an energetic man, who is always willing to try new things.

 

I am imaginative and a little bit shy. I adore challenging myself. I learn things easily, and like things that are "Hard to get".

 

I strongly believe in trust, respect and loyalty as a basis for any relationship. Most likely I am a thoughtful person who values spending some time on my own...

 

I usually do not offer things twice. However, if I made a second offer then the person who I am offering to would be very lucky. 

 

I deeply think things through before coming to a decision, and that takes a lot of my time!

 

Education:

University:

I was accepted in the Jordan University of Science & Technology in 2003. I am studying Electrical Engineering, specializing in electronics and communications. The J.U.S.T Campus sits at 70 km north of Amman, the capital of Jordan, and 20 km east of Irbid city. The campus which covers 11 km2 features main buildings with total area of 355,000 m2 that were constructed according to the latest architectural designs confirming to the natures of its scientific faculties. The university is one of the best universities in the country and the region.

Irbid, or Arus Al-Shmal (Pride of the North) is a dynamic city that is active by students. Since there are two public universities, one private university and many other middle colleges, students from different parts of Jordan, Arab world and even the world live there. You can find many restaurants with different cuisines! I have a dorm in Irbid. Normally I live there during week days and I return home in the weekends.

School:

I passed Tawjihi (General Secondary Certificate Examination) in 2003, at the Islamic Scientific College school, which is in Jabal Amman. I acquired an average of 92.1%.

I entered the I.S.C at the 7th  grade. Before that, I was at Amman International School. Both I.S.C and A.I.S are great schools. I enjoyed my time there, and I have unforgettable memories for both of them.

More about the I.S.C:

The school was established in 1947, about one year after the independence of The Hashemite Kingdom Of Jordan. The Late; His Majesty King Hussein Bin Talal studied at the college when he was a young child. He completed the elementary stage before he traveled to Britain to continue his study there. Many royal family members studied also at the I.S.C. Moreover, many people studied at the school and became famous influential, many of them held senior positions in the country.

The I.S.C is graduating every year a new generation of young people, who are well educated and well mannered; that's because the I.S.C has set the Islamic teachings, principles and values as a main target to accomplish and instill in its students.

 

Personal Interests:

I like to know every event that happens around me; so I read the newspaper everyday. I read books from time to time, depending on my status in studying. I like history books, stories and some magazines.

I am fond of movies. Although I used to go to the cinema many times, now I would prefer to watch movies with the family at home, using our home theater system!

Its time for sports I think! Well, I used to play and do many sports. However, it seems that the university had left its effect on that. I am a former player in Orthodox Club – Amman youth tennis team. I have two-Dan grade in Karate. Normally, I enroll in a gym center in the holidays.

I like to work on computers; internet comes in the first place followed by programming, games and web designing. This website is indeed the fruit of this interest.
