Happy New Year!

Well, my family is gone, I'm back from visiting

[info]kinomakoto, and I'm leaving again for Japan in a few days. How to sum up the holidays with my family? Busy, loud, incredibly fun. The kids are great, but they're related to me, so we already know that. ^_^ They seemed to enjoy the presents I got them for Christmas (thank goodness), and I got lots of DVDs and things that I had wanted. Hurray! (I also got some extra LJ time from [info]lenariel... Thank you! *^_^* Want, er, a translation or something?)

New Year's with Mako-chan was fun, especially when we found out that the Senshi Gakuen had been hacked to become a portal site for a prescription drug company. We got it fixed and didn't lose anything, but still, that's bad. (BTW, thanks to everyone who wrote or left a message on LJ. Who knows when we would have noticed if left to our own devices.) Therefore, I have decided to make a few New Year's resolutions after all:

 

  1. Update SG.com
    The only thing I've updated recently has been, well, my Tokimeki Memorial page, so this year I vow to update some of my old obsessions, like my V6 and translation pages. And maybe add some more manga reviews. Because everyone deserves to know when I'm horrified by New York, New York.
  2. Study Japanese
    Because I want to take the Level 1 proficiency exam this year. Actually, that means the real resolution should be:
  3. Don't miss the cut-off date for the exam
    That was technically my problem this year. I think I need to sign up by August.
  4. Study vacation language
    Mako-chan and I are pretty much decided to visit Europe next Fall, so I want to study the local language a bit. Just so I can say things like, "Where is the bathroom?" or "Get your hand off of there, you bastard." You know. The important stuff.
  5. Continue reading and excersizing
    These are two good habits that I started in 2007, so I really hope to keep it up. Good way to keep both my brain and body fit!

Anyway, hope everyone has a good 2008!!

Yup, application for the JLPT is in August.

If you come to Vienna, let me know :) I'll give you the tour!

Haha, no problem! I'm glad you guys got the site fixed. I clicked my bookmark for it and literally went "O__________O NOOOOOOO!!! ;o;"

And I look forward to the updates to the site! :D I've been looking forward to your translation of gackt's returner since it's doing the whole 'female perspective' thing while the pv was from a male one.....XD

I'm glad you had a good new year as well and that you had a nice time with your family! I'm still currently stuck with mine.....no further comment. x_x

I changed the password to the FTP and to the control panel. If you read this, give me a call before you leave and I'll tell you what it is. If not, I'll figure out some other clever way to pass the info. :)

LAZY-ASS GUNDAM WING BOYS, SLACKING ON THEIR SECURITY DETAIL. WHERE'S LEON-SAN, I'M GONNA GO CHEW HIS ASS FOR A WHILE.

Guess who's been so behind on her flist... heh.

You're more than welcome for the extra paid time... it made me feel quite good that I could somehow contribute to keep your amazingness on the Internet. ;) As for me, I'm content to see SG continue to exist so I can go every so often and reread the Gackt translations... you know, to amplify my Gackt fix since I already know my favorite songs word by word (nevermind that I've slim to no idea what I'm singing :P). I'm currently working on getting US people to join me in petioning for Gackt to come play here, and SG has been a formidable tool. :)

Also, if you end up needing to learn either Spanish or French, let me know if you need any help (I'm a native Spanish speaker and I know enough French to survive in France).
