Now that I've had a chance to settle into my flat, it's feeling less like a temporary stay and more like I can actually call it home for 4 months.
I rearranged my room yesterday so I could use my desk lamp at night to read, and I like it so much better. I sleep inside my sleeping bag and under my blankets because we don't have much electricity and I can't keep my heater running for more than 30 minutes at a time. I never thought about how much electricity I use until I came here. I don't leave the power of my computer on as much as I do at home, and I try not to turn on the lights as often either.
I have a lot of room to put my sparse wardrobe! The bag on top of my "closet" is what all my sheets and blankets came in. I had to haul it across campus and back to my flat. The people before me left me 2 mirrors, thumb tacks, and a million hangers. They also left a couple of New Zealand guidebooks which I have yet to crack open.
My house is right across the street from a soccer/rugby field, and it's only half a block away from campus. Score.
