Hello! I have arrived. I got here safe and sound with no problems apart from no sleep on the plane.
That was a few days ago now because sorting out the internet has been a pain.
The first thing I did in the airport was of course to check out if the stories of Japanese toilets are
true. They are. The one in the airport wasn't actually one of the fancy ones. They wash, dry and massage you. The one thing you can't do with the touch of a button is flush which i
s very old ashioned. I would have screamed with excitement if there hadn't been someone in the cubicle next to me.
The friendly limousine bus was so friendly it decided to take us on a mini tour of central Tokyo which I didn't fully appreciate because I was so tired/jetlagged. Anyway, eventually we arrived at the dorm and were given keys and information and had to speak Japanese. My room is really nice and new and the kitchen etc too but unfortunately no amazing toilet here. I would put a photo up but I have still not fully unpacked and my room is a mess.
Then we went to get bedding because although it felt like I should have been in bed a while ago, it was only 2 in the afternoon. I chose my duvet cover for its fluent English phrase.
In my flat there is Yoshi, a very nice Japanese guy who I think we would all be lost without. My other flatmates are all very nice too- there is someone else from England, someone from France and someone from California. Everyone I have met so far is really friendly- students and the Japanese people. I do get stared at and talked about quite a lot when I'm out and about which is amusing at the moment.
Ok I need to go now because there is a party somewhere but I have a lot more to blog about so that will all be coming now that I have got the internet.
Ja ne!
