Room Tour

It's been about 6 days since I arrived in Munich. I already love my dorm in Olydorf so much! Here are some photos of my place.

This is the sight you're first greeted with when you enter! Not pictured is a huge desk behind me, to sit at and do work (but who studies on exchange?! :D) Some people like Jaryl have their desks up on the second floor. That would have been better, but I guess it gives me more room upstairs too.

Kitchen area on the left. It's just perfect!!! Except for the fact that the sink is a little too small & close to the wall so water tends to splash when I do the dishes. But that's just a small issue. I'm just glad we each have our own kitchen. It makes cooking and cleaning up much more convenient! Yay.

Below the kitchen counter is a beautiful little fridge! The size is just right. As you can see, my fridge is stocked with the bare necessities. Yogurt is only 0.29€ per cup here and they taste great! Lemons are a little pricier. Eggs and juices are all relatively affordable. And I brought a few bottles of my favourite chili but sadly they burst open and spilt on the way here :'( There's only a little bit left in each bottle but I hope it will last me! Ha ha.

The bathroom! The shower is always warm regardless of whatever time I choose to take a bath. AHHH I cannot stress how much I enjoy having my own bathroom. Back in NTU there were specific timings that the heater would be turned on and there was almost always a new surprise in the toilet. Once I even witnessed my neighbour cutting up STRAWBERRIES in the toilet. In the toilet! 

The stairs up to the second floor. The walls look a little dirty in this photo but they really aren't! 

And my most favourite spot of all... my bed! I hardly leave the second floor unless I really have to. Over here you can see my BEAUTIFUL DRAGON BEDSHEETS bought from IKEA!! They go so well with my orange cupboards. Initially I wasn't fond of the orange colour and was jealous that Jaryl got sky blue coloured cupboards and my other friend Jahafar got yellow— but it's starting to grow on me. The orange kind of makes the room look a little cozier :3

Another angle from my bed. I know my cupboard at the back looks real messy but it's all been organized and cleared up by now ;) Really can't get over how cute my bedsheets are. The guys just use some giant dull grey sleeping bag that the dorm provided us as their blankets, but I couldn't help but invest in this hahahhaaha best buy so far.

Lastly, here's the balcony on the second floor! It's pretty icky outside, and the previous owner left a garden chair outside haha. The ground is usually too freezing cold to walk on so I only open the door to let a little chill in. The other students who have been staying here for a really long time have such BEAUTIFUL interiors. I walked past a couple and most of them have couches and actual huge rugs on the first floor :'( Some put christmas lights along their balcony and turn them on in the evening, it's all so nice to look at. I guess the students here really treat Olydorf as their own homes. My room definitely pales in comparison.. how I wish I could decorate my bungalow like theirs!! 5 months is too short!!
