Welcome to Riga! and the life of poor students

So we are in Riga. Me and my 4 mates. But we have a problem with living. We have a week payed in a hostel, with two rooms and a bathroom. We have a microwave, hot plate and fridge on the hallway (common with all the residents). We are close to finding something okay, with a kitchen and everything. Yeah, this is the student life. And we have this currency, lats. So we have to calculate how much we spend exactly. If we keep our heads cool we should make it. And I need to seek some more "funding". I know I'll be okay. It's just that we are 4 people in this. We all need to take common decisions. But so far it is okay. I'm not the real party person and I won't go extreme.
Now I'm here and I could talk to this friend of mine but she doesn't even have a phone charger. Gee thanks for the help. Keep calm. So far I'm keeping calm with my last pack of cigs from the duty-free. Won't waste money on that here. It would be stupid of me. And that diet I wanted to take? It's on the way. Because now that I get sleep every night (sweet lovely much needed sleep...) I don't eat as much. Lovely.
Have yet to taste the local food. They say it's okay and there are some cheap restaurants.
The rest of the guys from other countries haven't all found an apartment yet. Mostly French people. Some Czech, some Spanish, one Polish girl. Friendly people but some can't speak English very well. That will improve once they get used to the language. We have our year planning this Friday. Bussines Law sounds interesting, taking that. Okay, I need to shower and go out. You might see a vlog here soon. Depends on how lazy I am to write on this damned laptop. It's great. Just this small keyboard is killing me softly, with my words...
