We just found out this morning that our application was approved at an apartment we really liked! Needless to say, we are ecstatic! The university apartment served its purpose, but we've had enough. Much of our misery involved the extremely noisy neighbors next door, the tiny kitchen, and the tiny bathroom. (And the laundry facilities SUCK! There are two coin-operated laundry rooms for 12 (low estimate) families! WTF?)
The new place is utter luxury compared to the university apartment. It has an elegant and decently-sized bathroom; two bedrooms each with built-in closets; a large kitchen with a stainless steel dishwasher, stainless steel gas stove, lots of cabinets and plenty of counter space; a nice, open living/dining area; a garage; a laundry room; and a beautifully done back patio.
It is located in a small town about 10 kilometers north, called Woonona (pronounced 'woo-NOO-na'). The town has a lot of charm to it, and is close to a number of scenic overlooks and other small towns.
I'll post some pics of the new place in about a week or so. Tomorrow afternoon is when we pay our bond, sign the contract, and pick up the keys. We will move this coming Saturday.
