Moved in today!

<p>Moved into Stevenson today, UCSC really did a great job coordinating the move in process. Only drawback is they only let one car into the residential areas at a time; if you bring more than one vehicle you must park one vehicle in the remote lot while the other drops off your stuff.</p>

<p>Saw the dorms for the first time; had a surprsingly bigger space than we thought. Moved into a double, most of the stuff brought fit (too many clothes). Wireless worked fine and trash stations were set out for recycling all those boxes and plastic bags. They give you a laundry card that you activate; worked okay after two tries. Went to the bookstore to get books; thought pre-orders would be ready but was told all internet orders would be ready first day of class (9-24).</p>

<p>One thing that was surprising was the residential hall bathrooms, only three stalls, two showers and one washer/dryer. Hopefully this will be enough! Haha, just thinking ahead.</p>

<p>Best of luck to everyone, looking forward to starting the year!</p>

<p>How was bringing stuff from the drop off place to your room like? I have only another person helping me while another is driving to park back at the remote lot.</p>

<p>I have a bike, a mini fridge, backpack, a luggage full of clothes etc…</p>

<p>Can I just leave it there, or how does that all work out? Oh well, I guess I will find out soon, soon enough.</p>

<p>Anyone try moving into Porter today?</p>

<p>moved into Crown today. Was great and well organized.</p>

<p>Itisme
They give you a pass to bring your vehicle, with the stuff, to your residence. The vehicle pass is good for one hour. We parked right at the entrance to the residence hall. Only a short distance to the dorm. </p>

<p>My thinking is they were pretty lenient with that hour. Our problem was we had two cars with stuff, so we had to bring back one car before taking up another.</p>

<p>I moved into Porter on the 17th…stayed in the apartments the first night, since the B building wasn’t ready yet…then moved in the next day. It’s pretty nice, but it’ll be better when it’s all done.</p>

<p>Hahah yeah my Porter apartment was filled with early arrival freshman. I just feel bad that they had to move all their stuff from one building to the next. And one of the girls I housed went to her room and had no windows, her furniture was still in piles, and there was scaffolding on her balcony. But I think they’ll realize that it’s totallyworth it to live in Porter.</p>

<p>Hahah…bananaslug, I think I may have been in your apartment on the 17th…Are you Alex?</p>

<p>Haha yeah wow that’s pretty coincidental.</p>
