Laundry time
It seems like there are too little washing machines and dryers provided for the 100+ residents living here in Marcushof... I was lucky that when I got down the washing machines were empty but the dryers were in use. I used the card to pay 2 Euros for the wash, took note of the duration, and went back to my room. When the time is up, I went down only to find that my clothes were already taken outta the washing machine by someone else... sigh, damn ganjiong. I wanted to use the dryer for my washed clothes but it was in use. So I thought, wat the heck... I'll save the 1 Euro and just hang dry it in my room!
Been really busy lately, as there is a presentation on the 25th October. Sighz... It's not that I've forgotten about it being s/u but... I just can't do a pissed poor job. I don't think I'm a perfectionist nor am I that professional as a student... Sigh, dunno why... just hoping that we do a good job!

Haha. I find it so funny that you pixel all the underwear in the photo. =D
We have the same phenomenon here too- peeps just take out the stuff once they need the machine! You get pissed the first few times, then you get used to it. I hate it when people leave their clothes in the dryer especially when other people need to use it. =/ top

woh! what a cosy and spacious room! my room in tsinghua is slightly larger than a PGP one. im currently thinking of throwing out the metal bed and restyling the sleeping area. saves some space and makes a nice chill out corner.
anyhow! here in tsinghua they do the same, taking out the clothes but the building attendants so nicely placed a public plastic tub so there is a 'waiting area' for washed clothes. no drying machine though, my clothes have to dry themselves in beijing's dry and hazy air.
and I think the washing is cheaper than 2 euros. :) top
