Or maybe I've even lost some weight since I've been here, through a combination of different little things here and there. Walking more, cycling more, eating less... and climbing up and down a stairwell of 60 some-odd stairs day in and day out.
(Let's not forget the days when I inadvertently add 20 or 40 more every once in a while by forgetting things in my room :D . Oh! Just today, I was cooking in the kitchen, and said bye to my German suitemate as she headed out the door to the gym. Several minutes later, she comes back through the door laughing and says to me, "Dangit! I was all the way downstairs already! And then I opened the front door and realized that it was still a lot colder than I thought it was! I have to get my jacket now.")

I always feel bad for the occasional friends who come over, though. We have no elevator in the student residence, and while I myself have become used to it now, they're inevitably a little out of breath by the time they get up here, and there's unfortunately nothing I can do. (The Chinese host nature in me is horrified.)

lol. do you make them take their shoes off, little hostess-chen?
Hahaha! Surprisingly ;) , I don't. However, it's only because my floor is just cold and hard (... linoleum?), and I somehow feel like it's just as dirty anyway. I wear shoes in my room, too. If it was carpet, I'm sure things would change...
