You've got mail !!

For my final post I thought it would be fitting to talk about mail !! One of my roles as a Resident Services Student Assistant (RSSA) is to work in the mailroom !!

There are 3 total mailrooms here at Cal Poly Humboldt. Residents living in The Hill, Canyon, Creekview, and Cypress get their mail at the Jolly Giant Commons (JGC) mailroom on the third floor, just under the J. Residents living in College Creek have their own mailroom attached to the College Creek Marketplace, and Hinarr Hu Moulik (HHM) has their own mailroom located on the 1st floor of the west building.

Some unique additions to both the JGC mailroom and the HHM mailroom is our new locker system. Typically near closing, mailroom staff will load any unpicked up packages into the lockers so that residents who couldn't make it to the mailroom before closing have 24 hour access to pick them up. There's also a fridge in either of those mailrooms so there's no need to worry about your perishable packages going bad ;)

Be sure to check your Myhousing portal to find your mailing address, if you fail to put your correct first and last name as well as the correct mailing address, your package will more than likely be returned to sender. If you have any special accommodations you can always email or call the housing number with such requests !!

Let's talk about the Humboldt Community !!

I remember when I first moved up here, 8 hours away from home, my biggest worry was being able to find comfort and community alone in a new place. It's important to keep in mind that everyone is either also new, or has felt that same anxious feeling of not knowing what's going to happen next !!

I think a great way to integrate yourself into campus life and Humboldt in general, is to go out and explore !! There's plenty of beautiful scenery, quirky people, fun food, and niche places to check out. The Humboldt community is always hosting events, from the weekly Farmers Market to summer time Night Markets and so much more !! Who knows, you might meet new friends or discover an exciting new interest !!

Just this weekend I went to the Saturday Farmers Market, tried a new cafe, and visited the Redwood Flea Market !!

It's Hinarr Hu Moulik time !!

Hinarr Hu Moulik or HHM is our brand new, off campus, transfer and continuing student dorms !! It's set up with plenty of awesome amenities and common spaces for the whole Cal Poly Humboldt community to enjoy !! With two brand new buildings there's plenty of space for everyone to hang out !!

In this post we are featuring the 24/7 all access mailroom lockers, our amazing reslife front desk, some single and double dorm rooms, one of the many productive study rooms, our super fresh laundry room, the all exclusive 101 Express, HHM's very own dorm gym, and much much more !! (more than I could fit in one post lol)

If you have time to check it out I would definitely recommend it !! Got any comments or questions??? Let me know in the comments, contact our super friendly housing front desk at (707) 826-3451, or shoot us an email at [email protected] !!

Hellurrrr !! My name is Linayah Kuraspediani and I am officially taking over the housing page (yay !!).

A little bit about me, I'm a 2nd year Environmental Science and Management (ESM) major with a concentration in Energy and Climate !! I'm from CenCal, Fresno county, and I chose Humboldt because I wanted a change of scenery, it's only a bit different from the valley lol, Humboldt also happens to be a top Environmental Science school in CA sooo it works out šŸ˜

I work two jobs on campus, one as a Resident Student Services Assistant (RSSA) and as an Orientation Lead, so if you recognize me it's probably because I work everywhere. I live in the new off campus dorms, Hinarr Hu Moulik, and I absolutely laurv it !! I can't wait to show y'all what my little corner of Humboldt is like !!

Hi Everyone!

My name is Asher, and I’m taking over the Housing Insta for this week!

I am an Environmental Studies (ENST) major, with a double minor in Geospatial Information Sciences (GIS) and Political Science (Poly Sci). I work as a Resident Service Student Advisor (RSSA) here at the school, so you’ll see me at the front desks and mailrooms!

I am currently a sophomore, living in Cypress. I am also the Travel Officer for the men’s Ultimate Frisbee club team (The Buds) (more on that in a later post.)

I was born and raised in SoCal, and absolutely love Humboldt. The pics feature me, (an absolutely perfect golden hour selfie that I’m very proud of), my two cats Evie and Piper, one of my favorite pics of myself throwing a frisbee at the beach, and two shots of the Cypress lawn that’s outside my window.

My other three posts will feature the second Spring Preview that’s happening this Saturday (so if you’re coming to Humboldt, find me and you’ll have the chance to be featured in my post!), the Ultimate Frisbee team and community, and what my classes look like/humboldt vibes.

My daily stories will feature whatever vibes I feel like for the day.

Can’t wait to have so much fun with yall this week. If you have any questions for me, don’t hesitate to DM or comment or reply to a story. I’ll do my best to get back to everyone!

Feeling the ache in your throat that won’t go away after drinking water? Getting the chills? Body aches? A cough? Don’t worry! One thing that I love the most about our school is that we have our very own on campus clinic! The doctors and nurses here are some of the most lovely people I have met, they really love to be here and help as much as they can. They also have a pharmacy that can allow you to pick up any prescriptions that they have prescribed you or over the counter medicine that you can get if you’re in a pinch. You can call them during their hours or even afterhours to leave a voicemail to set up an appointment for yourself. The only thing that you need to do to have access to the clinic is to go to your My Humboldt page and select the big heart that says ā€œHealth Portalā€ and you have to upload what vaccinations you have had. Unfortunately our lovely staff did not want any pictures taken of them so I only have the outside building, their hours of operation, and their waiting area where they offer free masks for anyone who would like one.
Anyways guys it’s been a pleasure but I’m . See you on the flippity flop!

Hello again! It is so late but I have been up all night trying to catch up on homework. šŸ˜“ Anyways continuing from yesterday’s post, today I’ll be talking about how I moved as someone who doesn’t own a car. For those who don’t know, I moved from the creekview apartments to the new dorms HHM. How did I even do this without a car?! Well I didn’t, I rented one!
I know that sounds crazy but our school is partnered with ZipCar! It’s basically a student friendly car rental agency that allows anyone with a drivers license to be able to rent a car for a few hours. To sign up, search ā€œzip car calpoly humboldtā€ and our schools website will pop up. From there, you can read about all the cool perks you can get while renting a zip car. If you scroll down you can find the link that will take you to the website, which will allow you to sign up. The only sucky thing is that you have to pay for a membership to be able to rent the car. There’s a few payment memberships you can pick from but I knew one of my friends who had already paid for her membership for the year so I asked her for help. With her drivers license, the membership, and the app, she was able to rent an SUV car to help with my move! One thing that is a must if you want to secure a car for a specific date is to reserve the car you would like at least 24 hours before and before you actually use the car, you have to take pictures of the inside and the outside to make sure that you are not liable for any scratches or dirt that was already there. After that you pay for the car by the hour. Usually it’s about 11 dollars an hour. I paid my friend Cass, half of the total for helping me move and we used it to both get groceries after we were done moving all my stuff. In the end I paid 34 dollars+I’m gonna get her coffee next time we go out (don’t tell her 🤫).
Here is also a little update on my room too! Everything is still a mess but I managed to get this little corner together.
I’ll see you guys later for my goodbye post! Goodnight…or goodmorning? šŸ‘€
