My Life Story

My name is Sanad Saleh Saeed Al-Ameri. I'm now attending the Higher College of technology. I'm in my second year of studying. I just turned 19 years old and recently got my driver license. I don't have my own car, but fortunately my father lets me drive his black cruiser sometimes. My big brother Salem goes to college with me and is also in class with me. We aren't twins, but it sure does feel that way. We study together and hang out together all the time. Our friends are the same and he and I get along terrifically. I could never ask for a better brother. I also have 4 sisters. They're all great and behaved. My father's name is Saleh and he's Emirati. He works as a financial manager at the water and electricity department. My mother is from America. She has been in the Emirates for 20 years and is a housewife.

I have some favorite hobbies. I really enjoy playing Counter Strike: Source (css) with my brother and friends. I have met many new friends through this game. I have been playing this computer game for over 7 years. As a child I played Play station 2 for quite a while, and still manage to play it every so often, but now I love css. I also enjoy playing soccer and skating and enjoy playing cards with my family on the weekends. I don't go out an awful lot, but sometimes to the mall with my family or friends


I'm not a person who likes going to weddings and parties or even invitation. But a lot of time my father forces me to go, because he says it's good to get out and around once in a while so I go because I like to please my father. I always like to see my family happy. Everyone says I have a big heart and I'm a pretty nice guy. I'm also easy to get along with. I'm currently living in Bani Yas on street 6.


I hope to get married soon, because I want to marry at an early age. I think it's good to have woman in your life because once you are married she will take care of you and make you feel like a man with responsibility.

Every summer vacation it is a family tradition to go to Oman. I enjoy the relaxation, fun and the games at the carnivals they're there every year. But the beach upsets me because during the summer the waves are also so high that you can't really enjoy the beach that much. I think you should always have a barbeque on a picnic. I don't care for rice that much, I'm more on sandwiches. I'm studying English, math and civil at the moment. I'm studying to be a mechanical engineer. I hope this year to travel somewhere different than Oman and adventure a little bit. I feel sometimes change is for better.

Critical Thinking



When being a critical thinker it is crucial to use careful consideration. You must think seriously. You must have evidence to show something is true or real. A critical thinker can not just take something for granted. It can't be supposably true, but you must have actual proof. Technology advances are based on truth not things that are misleading. You must learn to be opening minded and want to find new solutions.
We have good choice of things around us because of critical thinking.
A critical thinker wants to know everything about a subject, and wants to always make things better. They're always eager for knew knowledge. A critical thinker is open to constant change. You listen to everything you hear and make a definite decision. The essentials of life and nature do depend on the degree in which we think.
