I have lived at Aspen Heights in Unit 1343 for about 7 weeks now and it has already had an impact on my life in Norman. I live with 4 roommates in a  2 story cottage type structure. This is where I have spent most of my semester studying and hanging out. the floor plan is very important to the way we live in our cottage. The way our home is designed is perfect for socializing downstairs while my upstairs room is an isolated escape from the complaining, laughter, and noise of my roommates. After class everyday I’m always excited to walk through the front door to see what everybody is up to and relax from a long day.

However, a few weeks ago we did have a Black Widow spider infestation on our back porch which obviously didn’t sit very well with me. Luckily Aspen comes with pest control to help us when problems like this arise. Overall, the structure of our house influences how we live our lives when at school. Since living here, it has affected me in a mostly positive way and I can’t wait for another fantastic semester at Unit 1343.
