I was in Japan, visiting old friends in Sendai. Mutsuko was there and later on her mother arrived and it was a wonderful reunion. There was also a tall, young man who introduced himself as "is that a he or a she", which I apparently had asked about him last time I was there, in 2005 when he had been a little kid. I was enjoying speaking in Japanese, but it turned out that he knew both English and Swedish, as well, which he wanted to practice. As he moved to sit, I noticed that he had a bald patch.
There were a lot of us, including dad's family and his parents. We were sat in what looked like mum's living room in the sofa and on the floor, and Mitchell Wallace was doing a silly pop-up show, looking up behind a wall. My grandparents didn't understand and they got a bit uncomfortable, commenting that this felt like an old racist parody of black people, so I had to point out that this was not the case and that Mitchell (whom I accidentally called Dave or something alike) is Hispanic, himself. He was there behind the wall with a group of roleplaying friends and they seemed to have a great time.
I had become obsessed with a porn model and was looking her up on my phone. In between her videos a guy showed up, giving life advice in ten points. I had been invited to a night of presentations and I felt like I wanted to copy his points and talk about them, but I couldn't find his video again. After looking through my childhood room, I found the points written down on a notepad and made my way to the place for the presentation, which seemed to be near Oscarshem.
There, Selina was doing a sort of fashion show with two other girls. They were wearing colourful wigs and clothes to match; she was turquoise-green. It was quite cosplayey. After she finished her friends rushed up to greet her and I felt that I probably shouldn't go on stage after this, talking about my ten points of whatever they were. Instead, one of her friends came over to me and was very happy to see me after all this time. It was nice.
