First of all, I downloaded a font called Lassus (link takes you to preveiw page at Dafont.com), which looks like musical notes. And because I'm strange, I just HAD to type out every conceivable letter and see what they all did. BUT SERIOUSLY. NOW I CAN PRINT MY OWN MUSIC SHEETS.

Look, I even made a translator image!



I think this is a ridiculously awesome waste of time.

I also downloaded several fonts that look like Japanese, for the sole purpose of being able to write PIKKUMIIIN in katakana. Maybe someday I'll make similar translators for those.

BUT THEN. After downloading these fonts, I sighed and frowned and made sad faces and googled "how can I make my computer understand Japanese?" Because it doesn't, and this is a source of much vexation for me. So one of the links that Google showed me was to the official Microsoft website, saying (in essence) "Just download this! :D"

...well, I did. And it's not perfect--AIM still doesn't seem to understand, and Opera has trouble in the title bar--but I WENT TO AMAZON.CO.JP (yeah, Amazon still fails, I was just looking, it was the first place that popped into my head! I promise next time I'll use yahoo.co.jp instead) AND IT WORKED. Instead of those ugly nasty little square things, I got JAPANESE.

YOU GUYS. :DDDD.
