Holiday Shopping
The Most Horrible Time of the Year
"Let's go to the mall" they said
"It'll be fun" they said
"Let's go Christmas shopping" they said
People shove,
and scream at you,
"Move out of my way"
Oh what fun this is when
adults don't get their way.
HO HO HO
Trying to keep my cool,
Trying to stay calm.
Why can't we just get along.
All I wanted was to shop for presents too!
HO HO HO
Just trying to find some gifts,
I'm gonna lose my shit
stop screaming at me,
stop stepping on me,
I'll have to mow you down.
HO HO HO
I will be like you,
Rude and selfish too,
even cause a scene like you
Just to get that dolly too
HO HO HO
Hopefully your shopping experience goes better than mine did

Was I a Model in Japan?
During my time in Nagoya I worked and lived at the strangely famous hostel and café Nagonoya. With its chequered floors and florescent lighting it felt quite dated, but I think that was supposed to be part of the charm. The dorms were always fully booked on weekends with domestic tourists and there was always a buzz in the downstairs café. Camera crews were constantly in and out of the place interviewing the Japanese staff members who worked the café. I think it had something to do with the egg sandwiches. At least that was what was on most of the merchandise, except for that one dishcloth with the owner’s face on it. Was I being employed by a local celebrity?
