thanks for your reply. didn't sleep much last night... trying to work this through...
Yes. I think University Accommodation would be the best option for me if I can get it. Even though it means I'm stuck here until March. I was hoping to move out of here ASAP so got excited about the possibility of November... I don't think I can afford to move twice.
I guess I thought the studio would offer me privacy... But I don't actually know that because I don't know how thin the walls are etc.
In Aussie... I had a shared bathroom that was technically... 1 of the 5 showers shared between around 15 people. I... Never had to wait for anybody to get out of it, though, and with cleaners through every day I always found it spotless. Shared a kitchen with around 30 people and always got it to myself at 2am... Lived with one other human being in a house and I couldn't for the life of me EVER get to use the kitchen without him coming in and chattering at me... I guess what I'm saying is that you can't simply read off how much privacy you will get sometimes... Especially if I do get stuck with a bunch of ESL students... Who spend all day in class trying to speak English... They tend to get quite rowdy talking whatever their native tongue is in the evenings... I bet...
Sigh.
And there I was getting all motivated to move and stuff.
