Overview
Daniel prepared instant noodles for lunch and acquired groceries and household supplies following a move into a new apartment, buying food items like eggs, broccoli, hash browns, chicken strips, fish fingers, pizza, and pie from Aldi, as well as dish rags and an Egyptian cotton bed sheet used over a window for privacy.
Living adjustments and complaints about the apartment include street noise from car engines revving at 3 AM, indoor heat, constant ambient light preventing total darkness, and a faulty shower head that sprays out the side and requires manual holding.
During an elevator interaction, a neighbor inquired if Daniel was a student and commented on the high cost of the building, whereas Daniel views the approximately £800 monthly rent as reasonable.
Daniel noticed anti-Boris protest marches and signboards in the city center, and planned to stay inside over the coming days to play Switch, watch YouTube, eat, and address electric bills the following week.
