My room and surrondings

This is long overdue. Pics of my room and my hall. Better late than never I guess.



This is the first thing you see when you find yourself before room 130 in Noehren Hall. A board with my roommate's and my name, along with our status. We are either studying, sleeping (zzzz), out or in. My roommate, Rhianna, decorated the board, and I added the Danish flags. 


I really like the idea of decorating your door and making it personal. Here is my neighbor's door. 


Another example


Some of the girls have a bible study. Count me out.


 This is very funny. It's a poster which hangs in my hall and is replaced with a new one each month. Last month was concerning alcohol awareness, and this is about pregnancy and sexual diseases. My RA makes them (resident assistant. Look for explanation further down)


The building I live in is called Noehren Hall. The floor I love on is 1st floor. On 1st floor there are two corridors you can live in. One is called Dionysus-Palmer, and the other one is Phaedra. I live in Phaedra.


There is a soda machine in my corridor.


And very close by, in a lounge, is a vending machine.


This is the lounge. You can go here to relax or study. If you spotted the open door at the end of the lounge and wonder what it is, I can inform you that it's the office of Noehren. There you sign up for things, borrow vacuum cleaners, collect your mail, etc.


The girl who lives behind this door is called Mykal, and she is the RA of Phaedra. A Resident Assistant is a trained peer leader who supervises those living in a residence hall or group housing facility (I totally ripped that off from Wikipedia). Mykal is very nice and helpful, and during the first weekend I was here and desperately stranded without Internet, she let me use her computer.


Another informational poster made by the RA.


The corridor leading to my room.


My room. This picture was taken today (Saturday), so please excuse the mess. I blame weekend laziness.


My roommate's side of the room. She brought the TV, microwave, fan and fridge, which she kindly lets me use.


My desk. Not as neat as it usually looks (cough).


The sink area. Yes, very fascinating indeed.


My wardrobe. A lot smaller than the one at home.


My sparse collection of shoes.


Our beds. I sleep below.


I decorated the wall with photos of family, friends, and Liverpool of course!
