I don't mean to let this space languish for so long but nothing on tv is appealing to me at the moment. I'm only following 'Burn Notice' now and waiting for 'White Collar' to return but I'm happy enough just reblogging beautiful gif sets of said shows on tumblr. D: I can't believe this is happening to a drama-addict like me ( Read more... )

Erps, finally got chapter 5 done after ... how long has it been? I've been watching Jdramas exclusively for the past month and out of the lot I adore Keizoku 2: SPEC so much but I have apparently been afflicted by the writer's block disease and could only muster up reblogs of the drama's gifs on tumblr. I'm way more active there these days since I ( Read more... )

Woah, 2 song translations in a day! I like BY2's 'Lovin' You' enough to spend time translating it but frankly the lyrics are pretty simple I got it done in a jiffy. This song however, with Xiao Han as the lyricist, is much more poetical i.e. my translation does not do it justice but still hope to share this beautiful song with those who do not ( Read more... )

Yes, I'm still alive but am emotionally spent after CLAMP stabbed my heart (again) with Seishirou/Subaru. Recovering a little now with help from crack/AU fanfics where it's rainbows and butterflies and everyone stays alive ( Read more... )

Translating the novel made me want to give the drama another shot so I did but this time I'm dropping it for sure. Having read the novel (and quite a few times at that), I can't help but compare the two and the characters are so fundamentally different. Ironically, the only episode I've enjoyed so far was the one focused on an original character ( Read more... )

I blame Nishijima Hidetoshi for the delay in translating this chapter ( Read more... )

This was so long and descriptive. Please pardon any grammatical errors and I might have messed up the baseball analogy (never watched a baseball match in my life). >_>

It was a mistake to even come to this area.

As requested by the anon in my previous post on the Jdrama 'Stepfather Step', I will attempt to translate the novel that the drama was based on. The novel is pretty long so I'm not sure if I can last to the end but fortunately it's divided into 7 stories which can stand alone so I'll try my hand at the first story and see where it leads ( Read more... )

他的歌会让我想流泪。

我当爱是福报
你当爱是乞讨
无所谓跟谁要

ETA: English translation behind cut

While I do enjoy listening to most of S.H.E's songs, Hebe's solo stuff have a lot more depth and variety as compared to what S.H.E churns out and I'm happy that her latest album has maintained the standard. The Chinese lyrics to this song are beautiful in a dark way but my translation came out kinda crappy. D:
