NC State Move-in for Robert

Robert gets to move in early at State because he's in the marching band. They have to be on campus this week for an intensive training "camp". So, I helped him move into his new apartment at Wolf Village today. It's still University housing, but set up as an apartment with 4 separate bedrooms.

Two of his friends are in the apartment along with a foreign exchange student from Uruguay named Nicholas. He arrived from his plane at RDU and came straight to the dorm - he seems very nice and speaks very good English. This is his first time in the U.S. and he will only be here for this semester. There is girl from NC State (also in Electrical and Computer Engineering) who is taking his place this semester at his home college.

The apartment is very nice for a "dorm room". Robert has set up the kitchen (as he likes to cook). He was pleased to see that the fridge has an icemaker (but he already knew there is no dishwasher!)



A nice "common" living space with what appears to be new furniture.




You know, I'm pretty interested in bathrooms right now due to the remodeling job....this apartment has two very nice bathrooms - huge with pretty ceramic tile.



The obligatory shot of Robert's bedroom....will be interesting to see where he ends up putting all that stuff!! Nice that they have a full size bed and lots of storage cabinets. What an upgrade from last year in Bragaw!!

It is a step up from dorm life! Jenni and her freshmen roommate stayed in one like that in Blacksburg for her soph and junior years. It was 4 separate bedrooms with 2 bathrooms. She was the "chef" also! He will certainly enjoy this better than Bragaw.
