Gosh, I disappear in 2014 AND LOOK HOW FAR YOU'VE GONE, I'M SO PROUD OF YOU

I'm honestly in awe before this post, where to begin! I'm really glad you've stepped out of your comfort zone and tried new things with composition because WOW, the results are amazing!! I love how experimental some of these are, everything is so vibrant and full of details. YOUR REDS I MEAN!! This post is really inspiring, good job! :D ♥ Happy new year!

YEES! Come on, you're nearly there!! You can do it! :D ♥ Then you'll celebrate too hehe ^^ I hope so, like always the exams are on things we haven't seen in TD, so you didn't bother to study it of course lol

Yeah it would be great!! I like your idea :D Like, with fandoms we both have in common for example? Ahah I'm very busy too, and I have already a lot of challenges coming, but if we say like 10 icons and let ourselves pleeeeenty of time, we could do it if that's okay with you :) or we could wait until we both have some relaxing time hehe!

Thanks bb! ♥ Translation tomorrow, ohoho. And omg, yes! I studied Henry James for my Lit final and the exam was...not about that at all! Oh well. :P

Yes! Like Elementary, The Hour, Hiddles, Idk??? I'm totally up for that!

but if we say like 10 icons and let ourselves pleeeeenty of time, we could do it if that's okay with you :)
I'm in :D I fear that if we wait we'll never do it, haha. If we say we do it with a really loose deadline we can make a few icons when we have a moment and we'll get there eventually :)

My goodness, English to French or the reverse? I hate translating so much, I feel like you can't translate languages. I mean, you can translate the general meaning, but you can't translate the feeling, the way it is said, etc. I ADMIRE YOU FOR DOING THIS DAILY :'). That sucks so much, you feel like your work was in vain uugh

I'm sending you a PM for the details! :D

BOTH, HAHA. When I was in prépa we did so much translating I feel like I sort of get how it's done, but it's haaaard. Either you stick to the number of words/structure and you may lose the vibe of the text, or you focus on the vibe and you have to use different words to recreate the atmosphere in a different language. I sort of love it though :D

:D

Ahah yeah it is! :') I'm glad you like it tho, because that would be horrible if you didn't, since you have to do it a lot XD. What genre do you translate? Literature? Or do you have more specific theme like IDK, politics, economics, medical? I only have 2 hours of English in law, and sometimes they ask us to translate legal sentences into French and I'm just, no. no we don't translate, that's not right, we read as it is OKAY x')
