Dancing in the Dark

--- how long --- Tuesday, July 9, 2002 -03:16 p.m.--

do you think that it will take me to translate Kagerou Nostalgia if I don't get sick of translating first? =P I've finished 20 pages. How good the translation is something that I cannot vounch for. I can only hope that it's on the bare side of acceptable. Ah... which reminds me I should print out a list of translated curses to aid me in a quest for purity. (yeah right. =P It was just fun to write that. ^.~) Though I've kept the endings to the names... Let's see 153 pages more to go for the first volume... *shuffles through volumes*

Ah! "Hitogari" = "hito" + "kari" = person + hunting. So, human hunters. I'm trying to convince Kitsu to do the description parts because I think I'll be too tired later to do so, and besides, I don't think she likes my description of blood and limbs flying everywhere too much. =P Whatcha say, Kitsu?

in the meanwhile... I've been playing more Shadow Hearts than Xenogears. Why? Who can say? But I'm up to this part where the main girl, Alice, gets kidnapped and is trying to stall for time. You get to choose what she answers. There's the typical answers, meaning no way in heck am I helping you out, dude. I do really like the ignoring of the evil guy. ^.^ The answers bordering on scandelous, meaning everything is soo~ sexy~. And third to whimper and worm your way out, meaning wah! Don't hurt me. Please~ with big sad puppy dog eyes.

Bookwise... I'm reading "The Game of Thrones". I don't know what to think, except that I'm getting a little frustrated because it keeps changing the views, though I want to know more about the direwolf pups and Jon Snow.

Job Hunting... *shrug* You can ask but I haven't done much and it worries me a little. But I really really have no clue. I go to sleep.

--- how long --- Tuesday, July 9, 2002 -03:10 p.m.--

do you think that I have to live? Just a little bit in the vast billions of years that the earth has existed. I doubt that I'll be around to see the sun die. Or watch the moon crumbling. To see every little bit of space on this earth occupied with a being. To watch us take to infinity and perhaps inhabit other planets. To find more than we could ever dream.

--- to mac or not to mac --- Wednesday, July 3, 2002 -08:19 a.m.--

Buy a mac or to not. Beg stuff off others for mac... then later, cry because ffXI on pc... wait till after july 17th... which is nyc mac world... *rolls over and dies from heat exhaustion*

--- ;_; --- Tuesday, July 2, 2002 -02:17 p.m.--

Kagerou Nostalgia... *weeps* NO VOLUME 5~~~~~!!!!! *weeps* ... T_T I can't tell if he's been taking a break or not, but there isn't an installment in the next monthly. T_T But on the good side, I've gotten Kitsu completely into it. ^.^~

On another note, I don't know whether or not to curse Miko-don. I went and bought Utada's and Gakkun's new cds. While very good.... >.>;;; okane ga... okane ga...

And on a completely different note that I've been whimpering about for a while now. I have no idea what to do in terms of a job. Can I read books for a living? Maybe I'll back to school and become a pharamist. Not a doctor because I don't wanna do that... But I have no idea... Just nothing that requires lots of time on the computer which limits me greatly! *shiku*

Finished reading Sabriel by Garth Nix. Interesting idea. A little more development needed I think. Wanna know more about what happens afterwards. Don't know if like the guy character at all, though find the description of much muscles that can't fit into a certain pair of pants, so goes for the kilt. It's about Death. Interesting. Like the dad. Girl is fine.

Shadow Hearts. It's scary... but fun to play. It's very linear with little deviation allowed so far. I haven't done much powering up, but enemies/bosses haven't been too difficult at all. Lots of talking that I think that makes my eyes tired. More death stuff, monsters, malice, judgement ring, fusion, etc...

--- taking over!!! --- Sunday, June 30, 2002 -08:25 p.m.--

I have taken over the labtop that Kitsu has borrowed. MWHAAA HA HA HAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ... okay, enough of laughing. Don't need to go hysterial, I say. (*pokes at Kitsu sitting next to her reading God Child 1 & 3*)

Anyways, guess what happened to the used a/c that I bought... *SIGH* It doesn't fit!!! *SHIKU* So, it's now in the living room. *SIGH* And I'm still considering if I should get another a/c for my room. ... *sigh* Then I'd need to find one that's less than 20 inches. It may not be possible. Wonder if it's possible to get one that doesn't need to go into the window, like an R2D2-shaped a/c would be cool. ^.^~

YAY~!!! Now, I got Kitsu reading Kagerou Nostalgia. *hearts* I want vol 5!!! Like beyond standing~!!!! It's been almost a year since vol 4 came out. *runs in circles* AHhh~!!!! *runs around some more* ... ... Just told Kitsu about the level of detail in this... Shiranui takes a dive down a cliff. Yes, he's okay. He's not dead, Kitsu! He just get a branch stuck in his arm. And well, he's gets a little dirty up. But if you pay attention to his sleeve for the rest of the book, you can see the hole the branch made. ... can you see the level of attention I'm giving this? *hearts* *hearts* *dances around* ^.^~******

--- MWHA~ --- Thursday, June 27, 2002 -03:30 p.m.--

Meaning that Kitsu is in easy reach to be pounded upon if the need occurs. ie, no writing on pitas. =P Though I've been saving the pounding for Poundcake-chan at odd moments when I see her. ^.^

Sun-chan, Ganbare!!! A thing to suggest is to make a list of good and bad for both.

Well... I've given in the pain of the summer weather and am getting a used a/c. I figure at worst that it should be easy to sell before I depart or I can use it for next year. ... dope... i forgot to check if it'll fit in the window or not. >.>;;;; ... i back. needed to write email asking about width.

hmm... what else? I was awake this morning, but not anymore. Sleepy. And not sure what I'm going at the moment. Feel a need to run away!!!!! away!!!! *shiku* *shiku* The closet sounds like a good place. *sigh* *sigh* I'm ignored. I'm not here. I'm fading away~ away~ and away~. I'm weary. I'm vague feelings not acted upon. I'm a barely heard whisper. I'm distant mirror. I'm silence.

--- replying is an art that I do not pratice --- Tuesday, June 25, 2002 -04:54 p.m.--

Mei-chan, ribbon = Suu = four-leaf clover tatoo = to bleach or not to bleach?

Kitsu-pon is alive and I have poke at her a few times to make sure that she's awake. It's a little strange to be co-workers in like a real working setting and attempt not to bug her too much, so that she doesn't get any work done. =P (I really don't expect that she'll read this years later and then I'll be years away from her reach. O ho ho ho! ^_^) She gave me omiyage, which turns out to be a little stuffed Tigger with magnet hands and feet.

Sun, I should email! But email not call me at all. (And, Sun, happy that Korea got so far. want to watch more of the games... but not many left? *shiku*) I haven't email like a few billion people that I should email. Need to find another job that not at computer all day because then no longer feel like computer'ing. ;_;

Which makes me think... I applied to Harvard job... another IT one. >_>;;; Well... I don't know what else to go into. Considering the idea of going back to school for pharmacy...? Any ideas of things that I would not mind doing for 8 hrs per day to earn money with and not in front of computer all the time? Ah... I run away now. *flees*

--- GR~ OWL~ --- Tuesday, June 25, 2002 -02:50 p.m.--

Meaning yet again I must go back to taking ibuprofen. =( It means that I can't other stuff if there's a problem. (Stupid allergies stuff, I think...) But at least, I don't feel like a huge dork after talking with my roommate who also is undergoing tendonitis/carpaltunnel treatment. I didn't think that my wrist is supposed to get worse (ie, weaker, ache extending into lower part of arm) after wearing the brace overnight. (though her did get better after doing that for a while) Really at this point though I'm being to feel like that I should run away screaming from any type of treatment anyone tries to give me. The ibuprofen + brace was fine, but afterwards... ARGHHHHH!!! It just seems to get worse. ;_; I'm just sick! sick! sick of things! ;_;(Venting is now complete. Approach is now fesible. =P)

--- muggy = yuck --- Monday, June 24, 2002 -05:04 p.m.--

Can I just say the weather just sucked the past two days? I don't mind heat, but I mind the humidity lots!!! I think I rather freeze to death than die of heat. It gave me a headache yesterday which made me quieter around some friends I haven't seen in a while. One since March, the other since two-three years ago. It was good to hang out with them, but I wish that I had brought my camera too. *sigh* They were taking a lot of oddball pictures... (posing cool and such stuff =) ) well, I shouldn't say that. =P Esp since I went along. And climbed a tree. That was happy. ^.^ I haven't climbed a tree in a long time. Only silly thing was afterwards I got a slight muscle cramp, but that was easily walked out.

Currently reading: Sabriel by Garth Nix
Currently playing: Xenogears & Shadow Hearts
Currently considering: building own computer from parts

--- thee idea --- Friday, June 21, 2002 -04:09 p.m.--

The idea of running around in a long-sleeved pink robe, though not fluffy, is not appealing to me. However, the idea of running around with peter rabbit stuffed animal is. But more appealing is to wear a ribbon around my neck. Just don't pull too hard it, okay?

(in other words, she's still thinking about cos-playing, though she still hasn't registered and probably will still take her good ol' time. =P)

--- arghhhhhh~~~~ --- Friday, June 21, 2002 -11:00 a.m.--

--- nyah =P --- Friday, June 21, 2002 -10:36 a.m.--

Isabel-chan, if regularly was only possible. It got busy the last two days at work and my lunch got cut short. ;_; But I think things should be winding down for me as other people will be taking over my places in the referral list like... *cough* Kitsu *cough*. ha ha ha. =) And I gotta stop eating the jelly beans. ;_;

*sigh* I have to go to the bank and close my secondary checking account that everything has finally cleared for! I think it'll take an hour which means very little time to go for lunch. Why why do I torture myself? Like I'm not supposed to be the primary pc referral anymore and somehow I manuvered myself back into it and got horrendous logs that will not go away. WHAAAA T_T_____ <--- flooding the place. (Am I making any sense to you unHDer people out there?)

Anyways, I'm sad that fanfiction.net is still down at the moment. And tired of looking at my cover letters. And wondering what is Wintel environment... which I think I get a sense off, but... *sigh*

--- pondering --- Tuesday, June 18, 2002 -03:22 p.m.--

Mei-kun, =P.
Do you mean KareKano 13? *waves it around*
Ah! I still have Toy Story video too... must find a time that can drop it off or do trade off... any time soon that going to sasuga? =P

Miko-don, *teary-eyed* what I do without you?
I would not know that Gakkun is coming out with a new cd! *scampers madly off to pre-order*

... golden snitch drawn on my hand... ? ... *sweatdrop*

--- oh, what can you do... --- Tuesday, June 18, 2002 -01:48 p.m.--

when you have an obsession? =P
http://doki-doki.org/kagerou/

Characters (cont'd):
...Shoot! Dang. I forgot the what's-his-name guy's name yet again. ;_;
Kyouka/f: Casual, laid-back, strong backbone, straight-forward lady of the night. With a little brother. Seems to know Shiranui. I'm still amused at her suggestion to Hantyou.
Hantyou-san: What's his name exactly I didn't catch. He's Fuwa's leader person. A good-hearted person that's a bit too kind on the ones he likes.
11th Mio-hime: The gentle and dignified princess of Hikame. She liked Shiranui's master, knows a lot more than she's telling and has quite a bit of Reiryoku (I messed up on that spelling last time. ;_;)

--- Kagerou Nostalgia --- Monday, June 17, 2002 -01:35 p.m.--

*HEART* *HEART* *HEART* ~*^O^*~ = I wasn't expecting much from this random manga that I picked up. Heck, I didn't even know the name when I got it. Was it because of the five boys on the cover? (GW?) Was it because of the prettiness? Was it because it's from Enix? Nope, nope, nope. Sun said get, so I got. ( Sun, I *heart* you. ^o^~ ) I liked the first enough that I went back and got the three other volumes, and then cried when I ran to the end of the 4th volume. (Heck, I learned how to spell nostalgia right because of this.)

What's it about? Hmm... how to make this not too long-winded and not to spoil you. Oh well, I'll just babble! =P It's about 500-years-old people reincarnated to fight against an old enemy, though what exactly happened 500 years old is a mystery as all that remained from their final battle were their weapons. The present world adds twists with their current lives and Japan's current situation. Their world is filled with fighting and death. What's-his-name is taking over Japan bit by bit with the help of Kuki Gesshou. And 15 years ago, hitogari started appearing - people who killed for the joy of killing.

Characters:
Kazuma/m - We have the Kamui-like character toting his sword/katana about, having been molested by the enemy, having a sister complex and having a great deal of seiryoku (spirit power) to blow things away.
Shiranui/m - Sanzo-Hisoka-like character toting his specially made guns around and writing on his body. Only...he's a calm & gentle, throwing-his-life-away-for-others monk who goes about defeating things of the darkness and searching for why his master was killed, not knowing the meaning of his name.
Fuwa/m - The insanely genki, women-loving, one-of-a-character. Keeping his odd name since his father didn't want to change the name his mother thought so hard of.
Mizuki/m - The bad-mouthing, nothing's-important-to-me-except-me-though-possibly-the-current-princess archer. Bad-mouthing not in the sense of cursing, but in sense that he just rips you apart with his words.
Gouki/m - The long-red-haired black knight of few words and simple mind due to a seal. Be careful not to make a movement like you're going to attack or... (ouch... ;_;)He thinks of Gesshou as his dad.
Akira/f - Kind and gentle reborn princess who's having a bit of a problem using her power and has been having dreams of past since she was little.
Gesshou/m - Kage, whatever that is, but Kage is the enemy 500 years old ago reborn into the world, helping that whatever-his-name-is guy conquer Japan. Detached from the world, but super fond and protective of Gouki.

And many more that I don't feel like writing a description for at the moment... or more like I ran out of time. ;_;

It runs in Gan Gan Wing. I think I have to get subscription... or... I'm going to go insane!!! I think I'm really really seriously thinking about translating this one. And I'm hoping that I'm right about the timing that a 5th volume could be coming out soon. I hope. I pray. I weep. I grovel. I howl. I cling. I go.

--- vacation~ *hearts* --- Monday, June 17, 2002 -01:01 p.m.--

I'm back~!!! From a week long vacation of doing nothingness down in good ol' NJ. It was really nice~. I ran around with Sun and shopped till the sun had long set while while attempting to talk to Kitsu on the cell phone. Played video games. Got a new video game, Shadow Hearts (morbid >.<;;;). Attempted to make angel food cake (it worked out the 2nd time). Got lots of manga that my checking account will cry about later (must explode over them later). Watched Star Wars ep 2 and growled at the lack of flow. Attempted to write a story with my brother, but got as far as visualizing the main character. Wrote a bad MKR fanfic while sitting on top of a mountain, bored out of my mind. Watched the Korea vs USA game with my parents and died over seeing soccer again. Didn't apply to any jobs. ;_; Remembered it was going to be my brother's b-day, but then forgot till two days after, which I then insisted upon buying him something, only he wouldn't go for anything expensive, so it ended up on a computer game. Panicked somewhat over the fact that insurance card for car had expired, but found the new one last minute. Got new registration card for card too. Was given expensive medicine that my uncle made under strict orders to take continously - it's to be good for your health. Really really really really wishing for cable/dsl connection at home, 'cause free Juno kept kicking me off. ;_; Read Kagerou Nostalgia like a trillion times and still tempted to read more (tempted to translate). Got a book by Garth Nix and haven't touched it yet. Roomies took over room last night to watch anime on labtop. Burned CDs and hope that computer fan isn't dead. Wonders if she should just chop her hair off or attempt to grow 10" to donate, but then no color or chemically thingy.

--- the concept of love --- Wednesday, June 5, 2002 -04:52 p.m.--

Hmm... why did it take me so long to realize that I'm into the concept of love than love itself? A lot of fanfics and books that I've been reading just don't feel... real. But then I'm not sure what real love would be. A bit bothering. And a bit not. Just many shades in between white and black. Why am I thinking about this? Just because I like to think about this and that. I think next comes the concept of the individual.

--- @.@ --- Tuesday, June 4, 2002 -04:59 p.m.--

Dizzy I am... I think I am... ... @.@;;; well... when I close my eyes and put my forehead on the desk, I think the floor is moving. I think... I think... I should go to sleep early tonight.

--- dedicted to Isabel-kun ^o^ --- Monday, June 3, 2002 -04:47 p.m.--

I have finally cleaned my room! Happiness!!! *dances in circles* My laundry has stopped screaming at me, since it's done. =P And I have decorated my room more, so the walls don't look too bare. I stare at my walls and go, 'Dang... why didn't I put Gackt calender sooner?' ... *sweatdrop* Actually, I know why. My room was a mess and I would spend quite a bit of time staring... =P But very grateful to Miko-don for.

I need... a picture of something... like scenery! All I have is anime/manga and jpop people. *sweatdrop* >.>;; Oh... besides the postcards of faires and shiny dragons maundering about my wall, but they don't count! I need big scenery thingy without any people thingies, I say!

... *sigh* I feel pressure to leave... I'm the only with a car and I kindly drive them about. oh well... company is cool, but it's kinda of nice to be alone in the car. I just belt out a song. No song in particular, because I can't hold a melody in my head for the life of me. =P Itte kimasu.
