The time is so confusing here... all the differences... we don't use the... a.d. system anymore- Britannia is a.t.b., and- I was really sure next year was supposed to be the Pig... but here it's supposed to be the year of the Ox apparently... 2009... but it was supposed to be 2018 by the Britannian calender...

Doing the math like this is kind of ( Read more... )

Hm~, I also have no experience in party planning, but, I would like to have one.

justasystem January 4 2009, 02:11:40 UTC

Do you like parties, then?

rly_not_mukuro January 4 2009, 03:34:45 UTC

I love parties.

justasystem January 4 2009, 03:37:35 UTC

I like them, too.

The Year of the Earth Brown Cow. There's merchandising in the streets already.

Do you need help with math? I'm good at it. It's one of my favorite subjects.

I'd love watching the celebrations for Chinese New Year. Maybe I could help, Tianzi. But you'll have to tell me what to do. Ignorant average Japanese student.

justasystem January 4 2009, 02:12:54 UTC

I'm not really good... I could use the help- for school!

Well... I could maybe direct it! I could do that!

reginagloriae January 4 2009, 02:17:43 UTC

I wouldn't mind tutoring you. What about during Saturday morning?

There's an idea. You should look for someone who has experience in organizing parties or big celebrations to help you. All I can do is make food or help with the decorations.

justasystem January 4 2009, 02:26:36 UTC

That would be okay-

Do you know anyone?

I've organized a party before! Ah--more than one! I could help ♥

justasystem January 4 2009, 02:26:51 UTC

You have?!

moe_moe_rabu January 4 2009, 02:27:36 UTC

Well. . . . Not for Chinese New Year, but for other things, yes! I could help~

justasystem January 4 2009, 02:31:09 UTC

Really? That would be really fun, I think- Having a party!

Just don't forget the alcohol and you should be fine.

justasystem January 4 2009, 02:30:25 UTC

I only ever really have jiu on holidays, and only a sip, so-

arr_ilovemecigs January 4 2009, 02:31:45 UTC

Jiu?

justasystem January 4 2009, 02:34:06 UTC

Um- alcohol...

The Empress? Of... of China?

...

Other New Year? So this one was... by the solar calendar. And thus not the one... we usually have. Figures. It really is confusing here.

... I didn't know the system by which the years are counted here at all before coming here.

[Voice] justasystem January 4 2009, 02:42:01 UTC

M- Mm! Well- It's the Chinese Federation, in my world, but. Yes.

I learned in the books!

[Voice] revengeisalie January 4 2009, 02:46:52 UTC

But - you're still the Empress. Didn't think I would ever speak to one...

It's a pleasure, Your Highness!

In the library? I guess I could go take a look. Maybe there's a book that compares the solar calendar to the Japanese one.

[Voice] justasystem January 4 2009, 02:55:53 UTC

My pleasure, too! I love meeting new people!

And- At the school, too, they teach things like that.
