Hello everybody, my name is Hussain A.A. Alfaraj and I'm from Saudi Arabia
which is locatedin the Middle East. I'm a business student and I'll be majoring
in CIS. Actually, the reason why I chose this major is that I'm really good at
computers, in so many ways like organizing databases, collecting parts, fixing
issues.To be honest, my first usage of computers were when I was 12 years old.
In that time, I used MS-Dos operating system which is pretty hard than the
operating systems that we have now. So, my future carrer would be involve in
those skills that I told you about before.

 When I was a kid I used to see my nieghbors playing soccer all
the time. And day by day I started to like this kind of sport until I have
signed up in my city's team which is Nadi Alsalam. I have played in the team
since I was 9 years old and by that time I gained more experience that qualified
me to play with the Saudi National team in the Arabs Cup in 2005 for players who
are 18 years old . In that period of time I had to leave school for two months
to prepare for the Arabs Cup. Unfortunately, we haven't won the Cup but we have
ranked the 2nd place. After, that I went back to school and studied hard for the
finals which I haven't studied for before. Until 2007 while I was playing soccer
with my friends in the WMU gym I have tored my ligement and my soccer life have
been stopped until I get my strength back. But still I am in love with this
sport and I am a big fan of FC Barcelona especially Lionel Messi the greatest
player in the UEFA Champinship in 2008-2009.
A. At home:
Being helpful at home makes me proud of mysefl. Because, when
my mother passed away ten years ago the family needed someone to count on. In
fact, I have helped my father to look after my sisters and their needs and I
started to learn how to cook for my family. In addition, I helped my sisters
with their study espcially in the finals week. All that responsibility fell on
me because my other brothers have jobs far away from home.
B. At School:
I'm proud of being named twice in
the Dean's List for the Fall 2008 and Spring 2009 semesters, which gives me an
incentive to work harder to achieve my goal. Also, my classmates love to work
with me because I don't give up when I face a problem or when I stuck in
something.
