The local cemetery has opening hours :(

So I am on a dorm in further away city, with a roommate, unfortunately. (Yes, the title makes sense)

However, I am not quite good at the people stuff.
I don't quite feel comfortable being near people, or hell, even randomly accessible (i.e. doors without a lock). I kind of have a hard time even just doing anything. Basically, the only non-awkward feeling place I can look at is my laptop or phone screen, as usual in such spaces with people.

Hell, I've been here since 2nd Sept. and I haven't even figured out the canteen or laundry room (I've been home twice), so I just keep living on supermarket junk.
For the former, I don't know where to take the tray and cutlery, how to choose food, where to return plates + cutlery, in which order to do the first 2, and I didn't yet really get to observe people.
For the former, I had questions about payment (card only - no PIN pad), but they haven't answered my e-mail.

My roommate has left for a few minutes, so I got to stand up, walk around and listen to radio while thinking.
When he came back, I finally left in search of a more private place. Hell, at this point the alone time in elevator feels heavenly.

Library? Meh, there will be people.
How about a park? There probably won't be many people at 9PM. I checked the map, but the park-like thing turned out to be a cemetery. Well fuck it, that's a large chunk of land with trees (and there's benches).

So I tried to go there, and then found out it has opening hours...

I tried to search around for an alternative entry point, but didn't find one (the fence isn't climbing-friendly).
Yeah, yeah, but a green space in a city is a scarce resource.
