An Ode to Denmark

As the air grows colder and trees dress more bare
My bicycle travels and cuts through cold air
December approaches in this foreign land
And I procrastinate on the blog post at hand

Last Sunday I moved to a new family
Its closer to school, with sisters of three.
Three as in quantity, not of age.
Shout out to the Palms on this page

I was walking back home late at night
With my death glare on and scarf wrapped tight
When I saw a dansk rider out on his bike
And then he upchucked in my line of strike

Miraculously he did so with ease
His throwup discarded as he swept on like a breeze

Thankfully I emerged without harm
And I made my way home, clean but alarmed

Such is a normal occurance at hand
For the Danes like to drink and bike in this land

Christmas approaches and my money runs thin
I guess I will have to just give out my pins
As an exchange student, my pins run abundant
I have brazillians ones by the hundred

Along with Christmas, Thanksgiving arrived,
Yesterday evening and my spirits thrived
On the turkey and stuffing on instagram
But resorted to crackers and leftover jam

While I'm rambling on I thought I should say
I went to see Gravity the other day
It was super good and I recommend it
Almost as shocking as the cost for the ticket

Everything here is twice as expensive 
So naturally shopping will make me defensive
But the brazen red logo of H&M beckons
Goodbye college fund, my wallet is a weapon.



A one eyed Danish cat for your viewing pleasure
