Nothing much

It's been a while since my last update, but honestly not a lot has really happened since all the excitement of April. It's been gray and rainy for pretty much the entire month of June; we had one afternoon a couple days ago when the sun actually came out, and it was exciting. I was going to go to the beach with some people this Sunday, but it's looking like it'll probably be rain again so it might not happen. I'll get to the beach one of these days.
I discovered that, oddly enough, sheets here are super expensive. I wanted to buy another set of sheets so that I could rotate them more easily; since it gets so humid in my apartment I want to wash them more than once a week, but that's sort of impossible with only one set of sheets because I need a full day for them to dry so I can only do it on weekends. So I went looking for new sheets on par with my old ones, only to discover that the cheapest sheet (that's sheet, singular - I haven't been able to find any sets) I could find was 2500 yen, and it's not even a nice soft high thread count. I don't remember the exact prices of sheets in America, but I'm fairly certain I didn't pay more than like fifteen bucks for my nice sea foam egyptian cotton sheets. I don't mind paying a little bit more for quality, but I'm not happy about paying a lot for something subpar : (
Anyway, I'll stop ranting about sheets now, lol. I was serious when I said there's nothing happening here!
