I'm tryin to figure out how this works...do you get one of the teeny rooms within the "apartment" (like, for example, "602", where you have to share shit like the kitchen and the toilet), or do you get the whole apartment (like, for example, "6F", which just dawned upon me might be the whole floor...?).
If you're seriously considering paying almost 800 bucks (US) for 602, it sounds terrible to me...you could be in the middle of downtown Tokyo and that would still be painful ass-rapage. I had to google what 9.72 square meters was in square feet, and I did a doubletake. That's about 5 square feet bigger than the bedroom in my small hole in downtown Brooklyn. And my small hole is really small, you were here once $.
On the plusside, if I felt like uprooting my entire life to move to the Tokyo office of my hedge fund, we could each have our own teeny tiny holes for only 500 per month. As my coworkers would say, cash, money. $
As a side note, I once held the belief that everyone entering Tokyo should be accorded some kinda neato temporary anime-style power, just in order to survive everything being destroyed around you. All I thought about when I read the last line of your entry was my old games of Sim City, where, after spending 60+ hours making my city beautiful and stunning, I would simultaneously summon every imaginable disaster to bring it all down.
Think Godzilla being blown away by a tornado while the floods put out the fires created by my 6 earthquakes the rioters couldn't flee fast enough. *huggles* -- Gerardo
