The fascinating life of a captive fansubber XD
The sun was shining today, and the sky was brilliantly blue. Outside, people were running about in short sleeves, at the beginning of December.
I could hear rather un-seasonal sound, like birds chirping, and people chattering happily (or not quite so much) about taxes and money investments.
And I was home translating.
I have a half-done script of Gundam 00 ep.9 looking straight at me, begging to be completed.I'm checking the revised script for Terra 6 (this is the...4th time, I guess?) trying to eliminate any possible disharmony and/or syntax-grammar horrors.I spent yesterday totally rewriting the middle section of episode 4 which contains plot-essential informations: unfortunately the fansub version doesn't make any sense and I couldn't even use that as a reference, nor could I, at the time of translation, find more accurate sources. I'm so happy DVDs are equipped with proper subtitles *.*.
I also have script 7 to check and revise.Also need to finish translating Maaya Sakamoto's song for Clamp in Wonderland, and I'm sure there're scans lying around waiting to be done.
So much for a hobby, eh XD.
This week brought me two packages at last:a doujinshi and the illustration book Yuuki-sensei made out of his sketches and drawings for the pilot movie of Terra.It took almost 2 months to arrive from America, but whatever, it looks gorgeous.Even my mother likes it.Of course, the doujinshi she hasn't seen, but I don't think she'd even like to *snort*
I also spent too much money on manga...I wonder why is it, that the series I like are exceedingly expensive. That said, I'm not regretting at all, it was all money well spent. I also preoredered the first volume of Neuro, because my bookshop only brings Planeta books if specifically ordered...I suppose I'll be the only one buying it, unless other shops carry them instead.
Oh, I'm watching Gurrenn-Lagann, as many times I was prompted by my fansub comrades to give it a try.It's a nice ,if way too loud, series for the moment.In case you are interested on discussing it... :DDD
Hav a nice weekend, and good luck to anyone wh's taking the JLPT this year, especially if it's their first time!^^
I was supposed to be taking 2-kyuu tomorrow, but earlier this year I decided on studying basic Chinese so it's 2008 for me.More time to get ready for the big jump , and maybe this time I'll really be knowledgeable enough :P.
