Cottage pics
I just swiped these from my sister's facebook account and wanted to share them with you! My family is currently building a house in Michigan to use as a weekend getaway. We're currently in the final process of the house and are working mostly on the insides, putting in floors and painting, as well as getting standard appliances.
This is my bedroom. It faces the lake, so I get some really pretty views. The lake is really clean, and you can even see the fish swimming from my bedroom, despite the fact that I'm three stories up and our house is built into a hill.
This is my sister's bedroom. She has the biggest one in the house, actually. It was supposed to be two rooms, but I'm begging my dad to leave it one big room, at least for now. I feel guilty about taking the room with the lake side view when my sister's done a lot more work for the house than I have. Her main windows face the street, which give her a good view of the prairie.
The kitchen! We're almost finished with the kitchen. We're just finishing up by installing all the necessary appliances. I'm looking forward to eating at the bar in our new kitchen.
Some of the prairie in the fall. The prairie is surrounded by a forest on two sides and a road on the other side. It belongs to my grandfather, and someday it will belong to my father. The big tree to the right is my favorite climbing tree from when I was a child. We used to build forts up there. I also climbed up there to run away from these two dogs that were chasing me. I was a rather...rambunctious child, I guess. O.o
Last weekend my parents were given blueberry bushes. My father wanted to get them in the ground before they died, so he and my sister (who is now unemployed- Thanks, economy) drove up to Michigan to plant them. This was the garden my grandmother tended before she had her first stroke that left her unable to garden properly. Since then it's kind of gone to the wayside. I guess my dad is hoping to revive it, or at least give it a reason to exist, because this is where he decided to plant the blueberries. Nevermind the fact that my mom has a garden of her own in the backyard at home. Nevertheless, this is the result.
Finished translating the latest chapter of DNAngel. The link for the chapter is here: http://hand-of-time.livejournal.com/6176.html#cutid1.
Psychic Detective Yakumo seems to be getting pretty popular in Asuka. It's on both the front and back cover this month, and there's a booklet inside. Last month had a poster. But I guess it's been a while since one of there series was made into an anime, so they've got to milk it for all it's worth.
Thinking about going to Hi-Mart one of these days to see if I can cables for my computer so I can watch animu. I just have to figure out how to get the guys there to understand exactly what I want since my Korean is made of fail. Korean classes start next month, and the sessions last about two months each, meaning I can take classes at least once before going back to America. I really miss America, but I have really mixed feelings about leaving Korea...
Level up testing is this week. I'm pretty pumped about it. <3
