This is not a limerick,
nor is it a lyric or an acrostic,
certainly far from polemic,
though maybe it is macaronic, and slightly panegyric and poetic,
at the same time characteristic and impressionistic,
and also emblematic. of experience and nostalgic,
of my life in Warwick.
I am in Warwick,
who would have thought,
who would have think,
it sure feels unrealistic,
or could it be magic,
that i am here in Warwick.
Internationally recognised Warwick IS,
Among the top compared to other universities,
not mentioning the environment is such peace
how could I not study in such bliss.
From far side of the globe,
I flew over full of hope,
greeted by autumn cold.
How I could be so bold?
leaving the comfort zone of home,
only to find Warwick as homely as home.
Different courses here in Warwick,
Mathematics, statistics, politic and economic,
Not forgetting those studying scientific and medic,
All could be found here in Warwick,
Just look for me in Centre for Applied Linguistic.
Centre of Applied Linguistics,
well-known it is in Warwick,
Learning and researching sociolinguistic and phonetic,
and also some pedagogic and semantic.
Thank god it is far from mathematics,
which I am not so enthusiastic.
The transition is exhausting and challenging.
From didactic and spoon-feeding of schooling,
to heuristic and independent university studying.
Assignment and course work could be excruciating,
if not well in managing and organising.
Chaos and panic will hence ensuing,
as the dateline suddenly fast approaching.
Exam is chaotic,
apocalyptic and traumatic.
Luckily we have analgesic,
easing the pain rather quick.
Exam...exam.. the phobic,
Exhausting the energetic to lethargic.
It could be an emetic,
as it causes panic,
except for those few cognitively unique,
who looks so beatific and charismatic
even for questions full of trick.
The students here are so diverse,
Everyday someone new to converse,
Different ethnics and all sort of ethics.
Some are eccentric with funny antics,
It's a good place to conduct an ethnographic,
in such a global place in Warwick.
Resources at Warwick
are ver problematic,
Library, Resource centre and Learning grid,
always available for me to visit.
All of them are so much more simplistic.
Five floors with its own thematic.
The library is forever fantastic.
From novel, encyclopedia, textbooks, and epic,
all ready for me to pick.
For studying it is ever idyllic,
strictly for academic and scholastic.
Certainly not for aerobic or frenetic.
Though it could be soporific.
But sleep is against the ethic,
of working in the library of Warwick.
Support for students is never-ending,
from International Office to career developing,
not to forget academic and counselling.
Unitemps is the place for job hunting.
workshops available for skills developing,
plus the WarwickSU constantly helping.
What else could we be asking.
Let us go exploring!
There's always something to do in Warwick.
All of which are extremely exciting.
There were more to it than just academic.
That's why it's never been boring.
Hundreds of societies scattered around.
Your interest will surely be bound.
Go look round and round.
Lots of choices will make you drown.
But do not worry and do not frown.
We will be very glad to expound,
until the right societies you think you have found.
Sports in Warwick is something terrific!
The facilities provided are the best in the district!
Now wonder the students are so athletic,
Warwick Sports Centre covers more than just the basic.
Volunteering is forever interesting.
Besides being rewarding and self-enriching,
it is so satisfying and fulfilling.
All the interaction and communicating,
helps me in socialising and mixing,
adding friends by so doing.
How truly deeply amazing. Warwick volunteers is always engaging.
Surrounded by places ever breathtaking,
touring and travelling I keep on doing,
Picnic and sightseeing not forgetting,
photographing and relaxing would be including.
International Office and CAL certainly know what they're doing.
Organising all these exciting outing.
They obviously deserve the highest rating.
Entertainment is abundant here,
Just choose movies, orchestra or plays by Shakespeare.
Easily available at the Warwick Arts Centre,
or in some other areas just around the corner,
There will be a cinema or theatre
source of enjoyment for the art connoisseur.
Life here has been generally hectic, manic and frantic and sometimes robotic.
Juggling between academic, frolic and domestic.
In short it is very dynamic.
deeply apologetic,
for not being laconic
and the lack of interesting graphic.
thought I tried to be synoptic,
but just to be messianic,
my life at Warwick,
is more than just academic,
it is very much holistic
That's why I love my Warwick.
