However, I am very grateful that I have a host-family here in the US, the Christophersons. إقرأ أكثر

For me, reading is undoubtedly a great entertainment. Unlike other games, play stations, social networking or phone applications, reading does not require you to pay any fees. Articles can be browsed from anywhere at any time and glanced over. Books are generally low priced and there are some great forums that help readers exchange or trade in their novel. This helps you gain a bundle of knowledge at a cheaper price and be at ease in your home. إقرأ أكثر
Now that I’m back from a Spring Break getaway to rest my body and mind, I’m quickly reminded that homework to me always feels like a never-ending task. From a student’s lens it’s a high pile of stress. The challenges of homework and assignments can lead to anxiety, stress and frustration. The feeling of stress is actually common to most students and the workload of all the courses increases the pressure. Creating a routine can help overcome this pressure. إقرأ أكثر

I arrived in the United States about 6 months ago, and since then I have been staying at a place called “The iHouse,” which stands for The International House. It is a rental property located in Reno, Nevada, which exclusively hosts international students who come from all over the world. You can already imagine the variety of accents around here. Living in this house is crazy, in a good sense. I have housemates from all over the world. Sharing a roof with different kinds of people is an experience that has opened my mind immensely.

As an international student there are so many things that we have to navigate. We have to learn and adapt quickly to a new culture, we need to keep up with and get stay on top of classes. Sometimes we even need to learn a new language, especially if we speak a different one. But the most difficult thing we deal with is the separation from home. There’s nothing that fully prepares you for being away from your family and that initial bout of homesickness that you feel. For me, I’ve been away from home for three years, and, don’t get me wrong, I love New York;. I love the people, I love the diversity, I love everything New York has to offer and what it represents to for me, but it’s been two years since I’ve last returned home to Guyana and I must say I fully miss it.
