Wednesdays at Moore Haus




I figured I could post some pics of our house! This is probably one of my favorite parts of the day is when I round the corner to see our home, Moore Haus! After the 20 minute walk up the hill, finally seeing home base is amazing...even though it takes about 100 more stairs from the street to reach the door! Wednesday is the day I get to relax up at the house all day because I only have German for an hour in the mornings. I usually hang out in the classrooms for another hour, and then I meet my roommates for lunch! We call it room 10 time, and it's just our time to talk and hang out without interruption (even though every interruption we get in our room is a good kind!). Then I head back up to the haus and either take a nap, read, or do homework (or blog hehe). The house is nearly empty for majority of the day which is so nice! Finally around 6 we make our way down into town to our 'special dinner'. Each wednesday night we are taken to a different restaurant. We've had Turkish food, Greek food, Asian food, and Italian before...tonight is Asian! Its always a welcomed/the best meal of our week! This explains why Wednesdays are so wonderful!

Now, for a quick run through of our house. The first floor consists of our 'Breakfast Room' which is where we eat breakfast/hang out. It has couches, our TV, and our little miniature kitchen. Through this room you open a door and theres a hall that comes to spiral stairs--this is called the Tower and about 7 of the boys live up there. The rest of the first floor has the offices and laundry room. Then you walk up 2 flights of stairs and you end up on the first floor. This has our Library, Reception room (where we have church), and the Faculty Apartment. Then you keep walking up MORE stairs and your on the girls floor! there are 7 rooms on this floor plus our bathroom. Through another door (which use to not be opened ever and was reffered to as the 'berlin wall' that seperated the boys from the girls...luckily we're past that age haha) you walk up moree stairs to the 4th floor that has 5 rooms for boys. This is our humble abode!

If your looking at the second picture, find the majorly white windows...and stay on that floor and move to your right. There are two little windows, and those are my room! We have a picnic table that sits right in front of them that we use as desks. I'm sitting here right now looking out! Well, thats all for today. Time to study for German. Joy. Tschuss!
