The Arrival day 2: Sussex Uni

Moving in in the rain is not the most fun experience of my life. So wet! So cold! So much paperwork grocery shopping and international student event-attending! But after a mildly hilarious struggle trying to get the duvet cover on my new, purchased from the school, very plain bedding and lugging the catering pack up the hill to my residence hall in the rain, I am somewhat settled in, considerably drier and content for now. On a side note, my bedding pack contains a fitted sheet that covers the mattress, pillow and case, and duvet and cover. somehow I feel like you would expect more bedding somewhere so cold, but the British do not use an overabundance of sheets. Here is a lovely picture of where I am living (taken in summer, clearly).

It's pretty plain and there's a slight lack of storage space but I'm secretly hoping no one else moves in and I can take over both tiny sets of draws and wardrobes.
