Livin' the Life! June 2012

So I figured I would post about our house... I dont have photos of everything yet but I love it! We have a cute two story in a multiplex with about 4 other neighbors... we are on the end. We have a two bedroom with a cute patio in the back.  I think the only downside is Chris has to mow all the grass around our unit (since we're on the end). We have a nice size kitchen, compared to our house in Texas, this one is HUGE! We just bought a little breakfast table for our kitchen at the Japanese Ikea: Nitori!

I am becoming MORE of an online shopper, if thats even possible.  The PX, BX and out in town are very limited with their selection. Plus, I love ebay and Amazon LOL. I bought a pop over pan, set of canisters, hanging fruit basket, garlic press, cheese grader, oh man I dont even remember all the things I bought! My most recent purchase was some canvas photos from the wedding! I will post photos when they arrive!

We got a car about a week and a half after we got here.  They have lots of Toyota's and Honda's, obviously.  We got a Honda Cappa (traditional Japanese Car) for $2,600.  Most of the cars here are small, but they are all VERY narrow, as the roads are super narrow.  And, yes, we drive on the left side of the road.  But I think the hardest thing to get used to is the steering wheel on the right and the gear shift on the left. You go to get into the passenger side and end up next to the steering wheel! But the driving is pretty easy to get used to.  I like our car. Its just small. We are in the market for a van.
