Al-Qahtani, Riyadh Ahmed

Bio

My name is Riyadh Al-Qahtani and my friends usually call me "Roo Dio". I am originally from Saudi Arabia, eastern province. I have a lovely family who are impatiently waiting to see me again, and i would like to say that I too missed them so much and I can't wait till I see them because it has been around two years since I left them.
About my academic life, I graduated from Al-Ansar High School, which is on of the best schools in Saudi Arabia. I got a scholarship a year ahead from graduating from the high school. My father and I have discussed which university I had to choose and which ones matches my interests and biases. Finally, we have chosen Wright State University to be my next academic destiantion. And now, I am 21 years old and I am seeking forward to accelerate the completion of the Bachlor degree in the Electrical Engineering.




Acknowledgement

Dear father,
The things you taught me I will always know.
How could I not? The roots have sunk so deep:
All lessons of the heart that I will keep
No matter who I am or where I go.
Kids learn from what their parents are, and so
You are my book of life, the thoughts I reap;
Only in your arms I quiet sleep;
Under my words your voice sings soft and slow.
From you I learned the rules of right and wrong
Against which I at times had to rebel,
Though with regret I carry with me still.
How lucky I am to have been loved so well,
Even as I pushed against your will,
Relying on a father fair and strong.
