The only thing I really know about interior decorating stuff is I like dark, warm colors and made of wood.

You'd LOVE my friend's condo in New York. He lives on the 50-something floor above Wall Street, has this gorgeous living room with all white walls and one wall is floor-to-ceiling sheet of glass overlooking Manhattan.
Dude is 26-years-old, too. :wtf:

This is the type of stuff I like. Simple and functional. It does need some good artistic photos though.

Now, I want to move back to FL, but I want it to be my last move for a long time.

yea japan is ing awesome. total culture shock. i'm very lucky to have had the chance to go live there as a teenager. it was my decision to go there too. i was stuck at this boring ass high school with a bunch of rich snobby japs (jewish american prinesses lol) and was like, " this, i want to go live with dad".
my mom ended up getting a job teaching english and went out there after me and was a 35 min bullet train ride away and i would visit her on weekends. she had it rough. lived in a japanese neighborhood and had to shop at a japanese mart and everything. at least on the marine base for me, it was somewhat americanized.

At first I was wondering why you were hating your life in high school with a bunch of japanese people, then wanted to go to their country for more :p But then I re-read it lol. What the is a jewish american princess? Rich cunts?

I suppose that would be difficult to live and manage, but the whole part of living in another country and completely adapting to their way of life seems quite intriguing to me. How much of the language did she learn?
