UCLAstudent said:bb88, I'm glad you picked UCLA.
I'll be in Westwood a few days before orientation if you guys want to meet for coffee or something.
UCLAstudent said:skreenin, I am pretty sure that we'll be able to get online when we get there. That's how it was in the dorms.
DoctorMohandes said:hey hey. so i just checked out the weyburn terrace, and the bedrooms are just a tad bit small for me (im a small guy, but i take up a lot of room) so im gonna try to find an apartment in the next week. are any one of you guys still looking for apartments and looking for a roommate? im neat and pretty chill, so let me know. also, about this get together thing... i know we dont know each other at all and stuff, so im thinking......we need to get drunk. the whole coffee thing sounds great, once we get to know eachother, but i really feel drinking is the solution to creating a more relaxed environment. so i suggest maloneys, qs, busby's, cabo cantine, brew co, etc.

lulubean said:hi guys!
just moved in this weekend (3rd floor Aloe Court, neighbors!). the apartments are really cute, but think SMALL. the studios have big kitchens and bathrooms, but the living space is tiny - no queen sized beds, you hear?
my building only had one working elevator, which you can most easily enter through the garage, so like skreenin said, get here early enough to get your parking stuff taken care of! also, get here early morning or late afternoon if you can, to avoid waiting in line for the elevator.
ikea also has some pretty cheap furniture (i got a bedframe, book case, nightstand, dresser, and kitchen table and stools for less than $300).
oh yeah - it is VERY HOT here right now, prepare to sweat up a storm. looking forward to meeting you all!
lis79 said:Hello everyone!
I just got accepted today. I was set to go somewhere else in 2 weeks but now I will be joining you guys on Monday!!! I hope I can find an apartment soon but since I am from Southern California it won't be so bad to move in such short notice. I'll see you guys on Monday!
lis79 said:HI everyone,
Since I just got accepted, I have not heard anything about financial aid. They told me to wait 2 days before getting in touch with them because I would need a pin number. When do you get your money disbursed? Also, about how much rent are you guys paying a month for your housing? I am looking for apartments around the area and just want to make sure that I would be able to afford them. As for university housing, I am married and there is a 9-12 month waiting list. Thanks for your help!
skreenin said:Olive eh? You're so far UCLAstudent! (j/k).
I'm actually posting cause i have a request/favor...? Is anyone planning on going to ikea anytime soon that owns a van or a truck (or just a decent sized car i suppose)? I'm a sucker for big desks, and there's this one i want to get that i don't think will fit in my 2dr civic coupe. I'd be happy to buy this person a drink when we go bar hopping, or some snacks at ikea (whatever they prefer). If there are any takers please let me know!
thanks
UCLAstudent said:Yeah, I feel kind of far away from the rest of you! You guys will have to let me come visit so that I don't get lonely! Anyway, I am in the process of unpacking. It's been a rough day. I got up to my apartment and it was totally trashed ... so I had to wait around for them to assign me a new one.
Oh, and skreenin, most of Ikea's stuff you will need to assemble yourself, so it might fit in your car. I just was down there today.
