Monday 4 July

Monday the 4th was my first day of summer. It was a mixed of both exciting and anxious feelings regarding to what are coming in the next three weeks. But at the end of the day the feeling was amazing.

The day started with a little worm welcome to the Sunday arrivals students. Then, we have been introduced to the new ambassadors Emma and Hannah. After that, we head to the lecture room to listen to a lecture by a former Maltese Speaker of Parliament. He talked about how the ambassador or the minister of foreign affair should has the idea to not just care about their citizens in that foreign country, but also how to turn into account the presence in that foreign country to make trading contracts with them that will benefit both parties. He concluded that Malta has a good relations with Saudi government and hope to expand these relations more and more in the coming years.

In my opinion, the former minister of foreign affair lecture has given us some insight about how we should 'the international students' acting during our studies abroad. We should not only aim for just getting our college degree, but to how we can apply what we learn in order to improve our country.

The second part of the day was sport activities. I have learnt how to play archery which was really great. It was a really good session overall especially when playing these games with your friends.
