back in Kokubunji

Today I took the shinkansen back to Tokyo. I did a whopping session on wanikani.com, an online kanji study tool I've been using for several months (to great effect). One of the terms that's been in my queue of late is "車内", for "in the car". I thought, boy that seems a bit of a stretch. Then I noticed regular updates rolling across the screen reminding everyone of this or that rule (of which I remain ignorant due to illiteracy). But I noticed each rule started with "車内". Well played, wanikani, well played.

Here's a pic of my watch build, taken on the shinkansen.
