positive things?

Oh, so I thought I:d list some of the bizarro things in my apartment. first- the shower. there:s a shower room, with a bathtub in it. I tried to take my first shower there this morning, but couldn:t figure out how to keep the water reasonably spraying into the bathtub, in which I was standing. Until, i figured out that the whole room is the shower and it:s ok if the water gets outside the tub. also, I have no dryer. what am i supposed to use to dry my clothes? my shower room. seriously. I:m supposed to hang them in the shower, and turn on the dryer/shower, which pushes hot, dehumidified air through the bathroom for a set number of hours at varying temperatures. I also have a camera door answering thing. Someone rings the bell to be let in, and a camera puts them on a small monitor on my wall. Its really weird. I also have one of those toilets that sprays water at your bum, i forget what they:re called. they:re in all the hotel bathrooms and stuff, I guess the japanese really like them. I have yet to get up the courage to use it. they have hilarious diagrams of the jets of water and a butt drawn on all the buttons. there:s also a little sink, that:s all i can figure out what it is, on the back of the toilet, like on top of the tank. it automatically turns on when I flush. but there isbn:t anywhere to put a bottle of soap or anything, so I:m not sure what to do. It also runs for a really long time. also, although my building is only for english speakers, they have left all the instructions for the air conditioner, stove, washing machine, drying shower, etc in japanese kanji. Which means i can:t read any of it. All from here, I think my internet cafe time is running out, I will try to figure out the international calls system soon. Until then,
