Dorm!

I got my dorm, finally! (More than a week after Jess, whose blog you find as a link in the sidebar)
And Waseda will pay me 80.000 Yen a month! That covers the whole dorm fee (70.000 Yen) and leaves me 10.000 Yen for food, plus I get a little allowance from my parents! Yahoooo!!!!!!!!

I might still work one or two nights a week (a Senpai said he could find me something) to pay for concerts and short trips etc. I have a lot saved because I thought I would need it, but now I guess I keep it on my bank account if I decide to go on to postgraduate studies after all. Can't be bad. :)

My dorm will be Houshien (not so good because they're strict, but at least the building is new), and I will get a single as I required. I couldn't figure out whether it will have a bathroom, though. The info paper says "bed, bedding, desk, chair, bookshelf, lamp stand (light bulb included), refrigerator, curtains, window screen, hangers".

So, where do I put my clothes? In the bookshelf? ^^; I mean, only hangers??? Where do I hang them? And how many are there?

Plus, it seems like my dorm closes its doors at 9.30 pm. I can only hope that my Senpai was right and the night entrance is always open, because HELLO?! NINE THIRTY?!?!?!
And of course, no visitors, no visit to other inhabitants after 11 pm and no chatting in the kitchen etc. after 1 am.
