Checked in yesterday. Most of my stuff is set up but need a few more things to completely move in and bring that homey feel. I am in my own apartment. It is small, but I have my own privacy and everything to my own. Pros compared to study abroad housing arrangement (dorm) is that I have my own shower, sink, toilet. The cons, is that there is no common area besides the lobby(so less social interaction, while I am home) and also because there was common showers and toilets, we had staff that cleaned them. As of right now, I preferred the other style of housing because my room had a sink and had my own privacy, but maybe it is too early to tell.
