When he replaces his name with a letter and his past with a blank slate, W expects that all of his troubles will be behind him. University, however, has another idea, and sends a flurry of papers, stresses, and boring professors his way. Enter Esther, a too-loud, too-colourful girl with a flair for the dramatic and a distinct lack of inhibitions. Together, they face the trials and tribulations of road trips and exams, Chinese food and one-night stands, and survive even the worst of it. When the past comes knocking at their door, Esther embraces it - a little too wholeheartedly - and W is left a little shell shocked, comforted only by his tea and his books. Through it all, they maanged to stick together and come out the other side with a hand-picked family of friends and a passion for strange music. Welcome to the apartment with no spoons.
