Speaking 1 Topic: Apartment close to campus but expensive or far away and cheaper?
Quote from radhikaj on May 31, 2020, 6:06 pmYou need to choose between two apartments to live in next semester. One apartment is near the campus but slightly expensive. The other is a little far from the campus but cheaper. Which one do you prefer and why?

Quote from radhikaj on May 31, 2020, 6:37 pmIn the 15 seconds I have for note-taking, here's what I will jot down:
- Close to campus
- Reason 1: Saves time
- Reason 2: More facilities and options
- Example: Friend who got time to volunteer
Here's my detailed response:
Given a choice, I would certainly prefer to live close to the campus although it might be more expensive. First, I would need to commute daily between my place of stay and the university. I would be saving a lot of time by cutting down on my commute. Also, residential areas around a campus usually have better infrastructure and facilities than areas that are far away. Campuses usually have good eating joints, departmental stores, and other such options close to them. I remember a friend of mine who had chosen to live very close to campus. She had so much time on hand because of this decision that she decided to volunteer at a local library during her spare time.
