Dear Members of CSSA,<div> I am Yan Cai, recently received the TA offer from the Department of Linguistics. While waiting for the official letter from the graduate college, I would like to get some information regarding the housing in advance.</div>
<div> I am from Changsha, Hunan, China, and will be pursuing my Master's Degree at OU. I lived in the states for a year and half, and I have a 98 Caddy Deville in storage. I am thinking of living with another Chinese student in an apartment off campus.</div>
<div> Since I had a terrible roommate before, I certainly do not want to see the same thing happen again. Few requirements I have for the apartment:</div><div> 1. A 2 Bedroom, 2 Bathroom apartment. Each has a private bedroom and bathroom.</div>
<div> 2. Have laundry, internet, cable</div><div> 3. Not too far away from the campus </div><div> I would personally prefer a Chinese student who cooks, so that we can have a division of labor: I provide the ride, and do shopping, washing dishes, the other do cooking.</div>
<div> By the way, I am good at fixing and hacking Hi-Tech devices, including Apple, Android, Laptops, and at cars. Classical music, especially Tchaikovsky, Paganini and Rachmaninoff, is my favorite. Oh, and I am male, that is significant, but I can live with a male or female. I promise not to bother anyone living with me, but only offering my help.</div>
<div> I will arrive on Aug 16.</div><div> If anyone in the list is willing to share an apartment with me, or have any concerns, please contact me. Much obliged.</div><div><br></div><div>Sincerely,</div><div>
Yan Cai</div><div>Apr. 18, 2012</div>
