Atatina

I am sort of in a rut to try and get posts up on this blog, and it is not something that should be too hard. I actually have no excuses. Right now my lack of interest in wanting to write something is probably because of the dwelling I call home during the week. Well, I'd like to believe that.

Atatina, the residence “made” for the young intellectual while attending college. More like the place where you want to pretend like the pretend luxury is true. Atatina is one of the several residences in the Qalhat and Fih area close to Balamand. It’s literally a 3 minute drive from the university and its location is premier in the residence scene. It consists of two buildings: Atatina 1, which is more like a dorms style building, and Atatina 2, which is more like an actually apartment building with living rooms and kitchens. The buildings also come  with a gym which holds one bench press and a 1970’s treadmill. I know. I can barely keep the excitement in myself. But other than that, the residence also houses the headquarters of an animal adoption agency “Animal Impact”, which is run by a group of friends who share their enthusiasm for animals.

Living here hasn’t been the most luxurious experience, in a not so modern living environment, but I have come to call it home.
