First experience in AAUN

Well AAUN, the first American University in Nigeria (i guess but not too sure) which is located in Yola. I was fortunate to get admission into this school, AAUN. It wasn't exactly planned for because i just got out of secondary school. My first day was a very sad one because i didnt see any face i had known in the past. It was very frustrating because my hopes on seeing someone i knew was very high. I have to admit it, i cried the first day because of two major reasons. This was my first time of leaving home to a far away place like this without anybody i knew. Although i went to a boarding secondary school, it wasnt exactly far away from home. Secondly, i knew nobody in this new, deserted area.
Although i was not happy leaving home, the reception i got in AAUN was OK. The professors were friendly inluding the Vice Presidents and the President of the University.
