Recently, my scanlation group agreed to do an interview in which we as a group may be questioned about the legality of scanlations. Now, it was the group's decision that our official stance would simply be, "No comment." Or, as I put it, we've decided to say "We're Switzerland! We're neutral! We have no opinion!" (This is not meant to offend ( Read more... )

Well, I'm back from A-Kon. I finally went in costume as Edward Elric from Full Metal Alchemist. It's strange because despite the fact that, in my opinion, it was a good costume, no one wanted to take a picture with me. In fact, there was only one other person dressed as Edward at A-Kon, which is really weird because FMA seems like such a popular ( Read more... )

Urgh, I miss Dan so much. He's in Orlando, Florida on a family vacation right now. Most of all, I hope his parents don't find out that he wears earrings. I told him to take a small pair of studs with him and just wear them when asleep, but I'm always scared that his parents will somehow discover that he's had his ears pierced. Granted, Dan is a ( Read more... )

I really wish this week were over. It's only Friday and already a shitload of bad stuff has happened. To start with, Dan has been having a lot of problems. He recently had to complete a lameass online defensive driving course that was far too expensive, then he had to get all the information to the courthouse in the county where he got the ( Read more... )

I'm so glad exams are over. I had two huge, horrible papers to write and one big-ass Japanese exam this past Saturday. But now it's over and I can start my summer. I'm taking classes at ACC, or as I call it, the 13th grade. I know that sounds mean, but most of the community college that I've taken is just way too reminiscent of high school. ( ( Read more... )

I can't believed I skipped class today. I kinda feel bad about it, but I just really didn't want to go. Stuart England (1603-1702) is actually pretty fun, and Professor Levack has a great sense of humor, but the class meets so damn early (11:00am is early for me ^_^). I remember this one time in History of Witchcraft (which I had with the same ( Read more... )

I'm so glad Spring Break is finally here. I've been so horribly overworked the past couple of mo--I means weeks. ^_^ Japanese class is getting more and more obnoxious every day. It's not just that I don't really have any friends in there (most of the people I like have graduated or are in another Japanese class), it's that there's too much ( Read more... )

Recently it came to my attention that animelyrics.com is now making people take transliteration and translation tests in order to submit song lyrics and translations. I was really pissed off when I first found out. I just translate lyrics for fun, and I while I understand that the site has to exercise some form of quality control, I consider it ( Read more... )

Yesterday I got a rash. I haven't had a rash since I was 10 years old. It's only a small one on my face; really, it just looks like I put too much blush on a patch of skin directly underneath my right eye. It doesn't itch at all, but it just looks strange. I remember watching this documentary that attempted to determine what the perfect human ( Read more... )

Warning- This journal contains sexual content and bad language. If this kind of stuff offends you, I suggest you find something else to read. Or, if you're a teenager and your parents don't like you reading this kind of stuff, just be ready to minimize the screen at a moment's notice ( Read more... )
