Living in Tokyo # 1 - My Japanese Apartment

[ginito]

claustrophobic! =0

[bigbagsofmoney1]

u look depressed

[TraidN]

whats the song?????

[kenshinchi]

Have you ever heard of Sakura House? Check it out. Is this an okay deal? What's a good way to get an apartment?

[fizzasia]

@kenshinchi

Yes Iknow Sakura house ~ I actually stayed in one of their a apartments for a month a couple years ago ~ The apartment was even smaller then this one but the price was more reasonable and I actually enjoyed that apartment more then this one (This is a Fontana apartment) ~ The way I always got an apartment was online ~ Very quick and easy and they are usually very helpful :)

[LMLtillidie]

What made you move to Tokyo ?

[HitMeVideo]

this is cool, what do u do for a living?

[fizzasia]

@HitMeVideo

Check out my job video :)~

[8324922061]

[MrMojo843]

Hey!! Can I move in :)

[michelle69233]

tee hee the tv is so getto i luv it lol i cant wait to see japan :D

[bmoc64]

What song is playing in this video?? It's really good.

[jajonabe]

how old are u

[fizzasia]

@jajonabe

I was 20 in this video but I am 21 now ~

[tymurai]

nice apartment, :)

[thisisntagoodname]

It's very nice, but I can't help but think I'd feel kind of lonely at times. Then again I'd probably feel the same with a bigger living space, I'd find some company in a roommate or a good friend or significant other living with me (though I'd want a bit of privacy with the first two XD)

[Nemsault]

Im 6'10 my trip to japan was hell. I hit my head on almost every doorway. I do not even want to get in my train experiences. Also, every japanese person felt the the urge to take a picture with the 6'10 blond hair blue eyes person. Good things though food,nice people, and the girls. My roommate was 6'8 we had the biggest place we could find i think it was 4300USD/month (not cheap) and space was still an issue. Also, the music was HORRIBLE I hated it, it was not up to finnish metal quality.

[UDavidT]

@Nemsault

Lol sorry, but as bad as our habits seem to you, your habits seem as bad to us.

which includes accommodations and music and such.

[Pixiestyc]

You have beautiful hands :) 

[skeezysquirrel]

No way! My 30 pack wouldn't fit in that fridge! WTF!

[ajidyze]

2:13 GENIOUS!!

[Kareia79]

You moved to Japan without learning their language?

[fizzasia]

@Kareia79

Yup :)

[popadoc94]

@fizzasia how much does it cost to be over there and what do you do for a living?

[KairiKH21]

@fizzasia gutsy!

[shadowxcorex]

@fizzasia

Why move to Japan without learning the language?

[AudieOz101]

You're apartment is small but it is rather adorable, I think I would enjoy living in a similar place lol o.O

[ChocolateAssMilk]

I could tolerate everything except...one freakin hotplate??? Really?

[TheIkawatay]

thats a nice kitchen you got everything in there including your bed and toilets!

[bowlerhat3471]

There isn't a ton of room but I don't think I'd go crazy living there, it'd actually be pretty perfect for me since I really don't need a huge house if I'm on my own. I'm thinking of becoming an English teacher over in Japan (even though that's completely irrelevant to ths post haha) and I wouldn't mind living in a small apartment. I'm pretty happy with all the space I have in my house now in America, but I'd get used to it ^_^

[fizzasia]

@bowlerhat3471

You pretty much summed it up as well as i would :)

[NumberFreak2000]

best thing about america? all the space we have

[rootiest]

press the big red button. whatever it is. that usually makes it work.

[fritoman182]

Jeez, how much does that cost you to rent?

[WhoIsKarma]

its like... bathroomkitchendiningroomlivin­groomentrance and then bedroom o-o

[XxbeatsxX0114]

Japanese apartment really small

[roykinn7]

I live in an apartment in the states slightly larger than this here, what's rent run on a place like that in Japan?

[ACxaY]

youre cute

[bradynbear]

What song is played here? :3

[00Indeedibly00]

murrr i know the song but i can't find it anywhere...even on a site called vivo they say it's not available in my region ==;

[oinkSsOink]

That is one small apartment. I'd feel suffocated if I live there. =(

[gojirason]

dude, you look japanese almost but you are white. how?

[SovereignStatesman]

@MrBullshittliar

Or to fit in the apartments if they get any bigger!

[SovereignStatesman]

I get claustrophobic just watching this...

[MgLDarkAngel]

is schools in japan hard

[xxx777aaa]

ur cute

[SovereignStatesman]

@xxx777aaa

She looks like a Japanese cartoon-character

[kakuichi]

I'm so jealous of your apartment. You shrug your shoulders @ the end of the video, meanwhile I'm hoping to be as lucky when I eventually move over there! Btw, the video would've been perfect if you would've included how much is the rent per month.

[mychalproductions]

girl u da bait

[x0verdriv3x]

If I move to Japan, can i be your roommate? xD

[allgoo19]

Your room is (far) better than I had in Nishi-Ogikubo, which was a 4 & 1/2 tatami room with small kitchen in the corner. Toilet was shared by 3 other renters in the second floor and no shower, which means everybody walked to a public bath about 1/4 miles away.

I was happy as a clam having my own place. ^_^

[SovereignStatesman]

@allgoo19

I always wonder why women cry when they have to move back to Japan... now I know.

[054bsm]

OH its perfect now I want to take a year in Japan even more!!

[123RamenFreak]

You're so lucky. I'm jealous. I wanna live in Japan.

[erikespinoza05]

How much is rent in us dollars or yen?

[kakuichi]

@erikespinoza05 Exactly, I had the same question!

[Rorintosh]

Should i have second thoughts about visiting japan? =.=;;

[fizzasia]

@Rorintosh

Haha of course not! ~ Obviously not all Japanese apartments look like this ~ If you don't like one like this find one that suits your standards ~

[Rorintosh]

@fizzasia Huh, thx :P

[chicababyphat]

werent you afraid to live alone??hey for urself thats nice.. i wouldnt mind living there..

[BladePenguin]

do u still live here? :o

[LoverGothicGaaraKai]

omg that is soo small!

Don't you feel clastrophobic???

I know I do! It's smaller than my bedroom!

[khmerboi916]

i'm having a lot of difficulty gaining access to the song pulse by leo imai... aparently his youtube site and vevo site makes the video unavailable to people in the u.s.... i tried using some proxy to get around these restriction... anyone out there can help me out in getting access to his song!?!?

[stoneyjonez]

@khmerboi916 This is 2011 and you don't know how to download music?

[khmerboi916]

@stoneyjonez i was trying to access his music video "Pulse by Leo Imai" i've looked for torrents and p2p sharing files to find it but couldn't... i even went to his youtube/vivo account and used a proxy on my computer to gain access to it but no luck... i'm sure your not as knowledgable with this kind of thing as me but i would love to see you try

[macrent2]

My apartment looks like a palace compared to that!

[TheMorningStar1991]

it's so small... it's cute though! you're really pretty, btw!  <3

[MegaDeathwarrant]

that is as big as my bedroom in my cheap ass condo...

[boltman654]

Several people have asked and I want to know as well.

What the hell is the song in this video? please?

[fizzasia]

@boltman654

It says in the description :) ~ It;s Pulse by Leo Imai ~

[stoneyjonez]

@fizzasia lol that's not in the description at all

[fizzasia]

@stoneyjonez

Well it's not written by me in the description but it shows up on the side in the description ~ It was automatically added by youtube

[Maximo20009]

there's nothing in your refrigerator :( you poor thing. and you didnt show us your balcony.

[fizzasia]

@Maximo20009

Haha it was when i had just moved in so I didnt buy alot of food ~ And i don't have a balcony ~ The sliding dorr literally opens up to the playground of the elementary school i live next too ~ Besides a low stone wall and a chicken wire fence there is nothing there haha ~

[Maximo20009]

@fizzasia lol oh that makes sense :) and the no balcony thing is a lil sad. so how do you dry you clothe?

[mysticwalker2112]

The song you put on your video, what is it and who did it, please.

[envyandgreed15]

Usually. The toilet. Is separate. From tub

[MkMartin05]

God I miss japan so much. I lived out there for 6 years. I love the Japanese coke cola much better than the one in the US. The taste is a lot stronger and less sweet. Aquarius needs to be brought in the US. Best sports drink!!

[IMDaniDee]

Omg, your apartment is just perfect!!!I have to go to Tokyo for 6 months to study and I just can't find a good apartment! can you please tell me which agency did you contact? thank you so much :)

[fizzasia]

@IMDaniDee

I got this apartment through a place called 'Fontana' ~ I would also recommend 'Sakura House' ~ I have stayed in an apartment from each agency and they are both good ~ :)

[IMDaniDee]

@fizzasia Thank you!!! ^_^

[TjnOCHS]

Can I move in with you? =] lol I'll figure out your microwave I'm determined to cook my cup of noodles.

[mrdeathmetal32]

@fizzasia Since you´ve lived in Canada and Japan, which are the biggest differences you can see?

[serenitysky18]

You look like Magibon in the beginning of this video!! :O (:

[alnconde]

75000 yen? is it near the train station or bus stations and shopping malls? that's really expensive for it's size. but it's yours and that makes it feel nice. me I pay 8 man yen but its near the keikyu and jr lines like about 5 minutes each and near malls and commercial establishments as well as some bus stops which makes the rent reasonable. you lived in shinjuku area? or in chuo area?

[fizzasia]

@alnconde

I live in the Shinjuku area ~ My neighborhood is pretty nice ~ I'm about 10 mins from the station ~ I live near a gorgeous park and my train runs straight to Shinjuku ~ The only thing that I think should make the rent less is the fact that I live right next to an elementary school and it is very loud in the morning ~ And sure the place could be bigger but like you said it's mine and it does what it needs to do ~ :)

[messi7japan]

一緒に住みたいＷ

[Vexwisval28]

Hey I hope you don't mind me saying this, but your really cute ; )

[buraburayoshi]

Are you part japanese?

[fizzasia]

Nope ~ I'm all Canadian ~ :)

[animexxfreakxxx]

[fizzasia]

@animexxfreakxxx

[animexxfreakxxx]

@fizzasia oh not for some time XD i still need to work for a bit to get the money.

[uriel4377]

that`s 917 dollars at todays rate(75000 yen)

[saki14duh]

[hokkaidosam]

What's the name of the song you used in this video?

[idoltyler06]

You place wasn't affected by the earthquake was it? I hope not, I feel for Japan so, so much.

[LordBifford]

What's the rent?

[fizzasia]

@LordBifford

I pay 75000 Yen ~ It's pretty expensive but it's my home haha ~

[LordBifford]

@fizzasia My Zurich apartment is twice as big and only costs 500 euros a month.

[MyLifeinJapan09]

I would slit my wrists there

[fizzasia]

@MyLifeinJapan09

haha It's not THAT bad XD ~

[muslima93]

Nice ^_^ It's not small for Japanese standards, though!

[x0hakai]

your apartment looks so nice, I like your style too

what song is this btw? I cant think of it D;

[x0hakai]

@x0hakai nevermind I remembered >w<

[Toxicrafa]

Is that a sakura appartment?

The sink runs when you flush so that you can wash your hands and save water. oh and your not supose to walk without shoes at the entrance (0:10).

For the microwave just press one of the time buttons (from left to right: 10 sec, 1 minute and 10 minutes) and the big red button to start or the blue one if it's for drinks. If you wanna stop before the time, use the pink button. ;)

Nice flat.

[fizzasia]

@Toxicrafa

It's a Fontana appartment :)

[Angles786]

''ITS NOT MUCH BUT ITS HOME'' now this is wat you call an EPIC BEGINING

[TasteForDisaster]

@Angles786 i think that was a quote from a movie, i'm sure i heard that line before somewhere.

[ciaa716m47ccg]

日本の家は 狭いでしょ？

[JETsetMegu]

Aw it's cute! :)

[desperate4jake]

[vulgarismx]

Amy, let me come and live in your mini-tub. I'll be good, I swear.

[fizzasia]

@vulgarismx

Of course!! :D

[Woohoopanda]

Great tour, I hope you do a lot more videos, with a little less music and a little more talking though lol.

[fizzasia]

@Woohoopanda

Thanks! yeah I'm hoping to make this a regular thing ~ So videos of me talking are sure to come
