Showering in Orange Juice

My first 48 hours here has already thrown up the typical range of weird shit that you could only find in Japan.

I was having a shower this morning when I noticed that the handle on the shower head was a little unusual. It's transparent and and has something that looks like crystals in it. Then I saw it says "Vitamin C Shower" on the side. Okaayy...

Meanwhile, I have gone to great lengths to personalize my white cube of a room. I'm finally indulging my long-cherished dream of building furniture out of those slot-together compressed cardboard tubes you get from Muji. Maybe you can't get them in England, but they feel as hard as MDF and I've got myself a nice sideboard now.

Oh yes, those. I remember a matrix-style moment at Highfield when I heard a snicker from above me, looked up and saw the abstract shape of a bucket-full of water coming directly down towards me... but somehow I managed to duck out of the way in time. Clearly I did well to take the blue pill.
