A few days in
So im in my flat typin away on my housemate adam's mac.
I think im just gettin over my jetlag. Things have been pretty weird recently and ive only been getting 5 hours sleep at a time.
I just popped upstairs to a flat occupied by some girls who also work at nova. Jesse has just given me instructions to get to a gym that's really near my work which is sweet.
I don't start work untill monday but ive already spent 50 quid which isn't too good.
it seems that the cost of livin in osaka is cheap as hell. i dont know wot the japanese spend all their money on. you can buy a 3 bed flat near the centre for only 10000 pounds! I think they all just save up their money to have a garden. There is no flat, green space anywhere here and apparently it's really valued.
There is a lot of cars on the roads, like anywhere but no where to park. People have to buy a parking space and there are space-aged car parks which are hard to explain but basically there are cages for the cars which are somehow stacked on top of each other. I'll have to take a pic when i can. And petrol stations have the pumps on the roof with the hoses hanging down. A space savin tech no doubt.
Well im off now, prob to eat at another mcds. They are cheaper than at home!
