Dorm! (宿舍)

Greetings from China!

I figured my first post would be on where I'm living now!

I don't have pictures of the outside or of the front desk area. I will get those at some point to show you, though!

This is my hall. I live on the 2nd floor. It's kinda dreary looking, but it's not so bad.


This is my room! I live in 211.

Once you walk in, this is what you see! I live on the left side, my roommate lived on the right side. She actually just moved out today, so it looks a little different now.

If you walk in a little bit and look to my side, this is what you see. I like to keep it simple. I only had 2 suitcases and a carry-on to pack, so I don't have much.

And if you turn to the left again, you'd be facing the door. This is what you would see.

Now for the bathroom! Our bathroom is pretty exciting. It has a lot to offer. For example, here you have your standard western-style potty.

And here you have your Eastern potty! I haven't tried it yet, but I will one day. I know I'm just not used to these types of toilets, but I'm so amazed when I see people use these toilets over the other one. I just feel like the other one would be so much more comfortable.

And then we have some sinks (sorry for the flash).

Then if you go in further, there's a little room with 2 showers. I didn't get an outside-looking-in picture of the shower room, but here's what the inside of a shower stall looks like.

Do you see that little gray box? That little contraption is what gives me hot water. I have to pay for everything here! Even hot water. I have a shower card that I stick into a little slot, then I press the red button and I get hot water!
