The Interference of Reality on Modern Otaku Life

I present to you my greatest masterpiece ever, after the jump.
otaku lifestyle crisis
a pile of unplayed ero-games, weekend, spent on php, preorders, forgotten until time for release. otaku lifestyle crisis,
a dozen series, a long long way.
disk space, less than one tenth free,
wallet, emptied to pay for plastic things.
school holidays this time is supposed to be,
why is my calendar packed like cans of sardines?
weekdays, booked from dawn till dusk.
nus is a nice place to be,
but that project deadline will soon pass.
jlpt on december three,
maybe i should get started on that task…
figurines, all made in china, priced in yen.
maybe i shouldn’t have bought those haruhi dvds,
only when the orders ship, do you feel the pain.
curse amazon jp and its fiendish schemes,
product recommendations and nhk be my bane.
i need a money press and a time machine.

too many pretty merchandise, too little shelf space and cash. I feel your pain too. =(
