Meine Wohnung

My room is on the ground floor of the Wohnheim, which is really nice because I don't have to go up and down a bunch of stairs (just about 5; the ground floor is split-level). It's pretty big, mostly because it's supposed to be a double-room, but the other slot was never filled, so I basically have a single room. :)

This is a really cool window in my room facing out to a terraced garden sort of thing in between this Wohnheim and the house next to it. It looks like a porch door, but it's not. The first time I turned that handle in the middle to open it, I thought it was, and it really scared me when it dropped open a couple inches at the top, hinged at the bottom; I thought I'd broken it. Then I realized it's supposed to do that, lol.
Here you can also see my little living chair and the desk lamp.





This is my bed and my desk. Yes, I know the bed looks kind of like a couch. Oh well. The mattress is this weird, stiff foam sort of material that could take a little getting used to, and the pillow is enormous, like, twice the size of a pillow at home (it's a big square), which is pretty cool. I also have a nifty little reading light over the headboard, which you can't see here.






When you come in the door, there's a little bathroom on the right. It's kind of small, but that's okay. The shower sprays a really direct stream, so you have to be careful not to turn it all the way on or it could be seriously painful. :)
(Maybe it's a little weird that I took a picture of my toilet... If so, please forgive me...)




















In the foyer-type area, there are two huge wardrobes (I'm only using one...for now...), and also a little refrigerator, which will come in handy for juice and stuff. By the way, the left-hand door on that wardrobe is about twice that wide, but it's being covered up by the doorway.
