A Beautiful Campus
A Beautiful Campus - 2005.04.01

My home university has a very beautiful campus situated within a lush natural environment. On the campus there are ponds and grass lawns surrounded by many native trees. There are a variety of animals including birds, ducks and even rabits and lizards. The ocean is nearby bringing fresh air and the weather is normally pleasant.

The UniBar
The UniBar - 2005.04.01

At lunch and after classes, my friends and I often meet at the University Cafeteria which we call the 'UniBar'.
The Unibar has lots of entertaining events including music from live bands and trivia contents.
Of course, we like to relax over a couple of beers.
