Day 6 (Osaka) : Semai Project

I finished off the last of the furniture runs for my apartment. I should have everything I need to live out the next two years in a pretty lush life style for a full time student. Shopping at Nitori was tricky becuase I couldn't buy everything at once. I had to pay for things by the floor I picked them up on. They have nice prices though so it was cool to go out there. The store was only a few minutes walk from Imamiya station and if you can't find what you want at Nitori you can walk a few blocks further to Kohnan, another housing outlet.

I'm still short on shelf space, but that should all be fixed up in a week or two when the delivery guys drop off my stuff. I was really limited on the kind of couch I could pick up though because I only have 185 cm floor space between the TV and the sliding doors to my tatami room. On the bright side, I don't have to hear any of my guests say "広い～～～!" when they come in my room again. I can't say I'm surprised though. Moving from a 170,000yen apartment to this 76,000 apartment would guaruntee a smaller living space.

Nothing much exciting or interesting to point out today. It's still incredibly cold and the AC repair guys won't be here until next weekend. I figure spring will get here before they get the problem worked out. On the bright side, they decided the two old units are not worth repairing so I will get two brand new ones. Too bad I can't say the same for my dual burner stove. It has the "minor" problem of leaking gas out of the front burner. So everytime I finish using it I have to turn off the gas supply below the sink or risk re-enacting one of the scenes from an action flick.
