I LOVE MY FLAT!!!




Hip Hip Hooray! My new flat is amazing. Soooo much better than the temporary housing. First of all, it feels sanitary. It smells new! Great desk set up- drawers, shelves, pin board.... and my bed is lofted, which leaves me with a TON of room! And, it's a double sized bed- nice surprise! Plus there's extra room with the bed- a nightstand, and it's got room above the bed so I don't feel like I'm trapped in a box! The ladder is angled just enough so I can put all my suitcases into the biggest, and put them there out of the way. Not much hanging room for clothes, so I may buy a coat rack. Plenty of room for it!

There's no wireless here, and the ethernet cord isn't nearly long enough for me to take the computer far enough to get a photo of the bathroom- but if you can imagine a really spacious airplane bathroom, that's what it looks like. I like it- decent sized shower, not much storage space, but there are two towel racks, and a small shelf.

The kitchen is just down the hall. There's (if memory serves) six small refrigerators. Three are for veggies (only drawers in them), three normal. A microwave, hot pot for tea, a toaster, and, drum roll please!!!! A stove and oven! Yes!!! I can cook!!! Can you tell I'm excited? ;-)

I'm off shortly to IKEA, as the bed is bigger than the bedding they gave us at the temporary housing. And I need towels, a small garbage can, hangers... oh, and a hair dryer. I'm sick of the "I just got out of bed" look that my hair has when I let it air dry. ;-)
