Apology to my flist about suddenly starting to make these kinds of posts in the past days, but I don't want to get another LJ for it, I want my translations HERE in my original LJ. And since I am studying Japanology, it's kinda obvious that maybe sooner or later I'd start posting stuff like translations and such. So you hast have to skip those

I love the Shige Ai in comm too. Too much Shige these days. I really glad <3
Thank you for your hard work ^^

[gerbyl]

yay more people loving the Shige Ai :D:D
oh and well, I'm also gaining from translating his essays. I'm gaining more experience with the language, so it's a win-win situation for everyone, and I'm happy that you like to read the translations :D

somehow we are sharing the same thoughts here =S

i always hear people saying " you are totally like 10 years old girl "

and others saying :" you are thinking like 35 years old woman " but hey i`m inly 18 =S

what the heck i`m i an adult or am i a kid =S

and being a member in the society makes me feel somehow " scared "

but i believe that being an adult and member in the society will happen slowly

so no need to try acting like adult ^^ or even a kid ^_^

thank you for this ^^y

I so know what you mean. I look and sometimes act younger than I am, and when I do certain things my friends (who are partly younger than me) often say : "you know, that's what little children do, aren't you a bit old for that". Then again, there are other times, especially when meeting new people, who also first guess my age is younger than it really is. After a while I get told by them "after I talked to you for about 15 minutes I was so surprised because you seem like such an adult, your mindset seems way older than you are".

so yeah...I know what it feels like. that doesn't make me change though, cause I like being like that, and sometimes doing things that "little children do" :D

Here comes the Koyashige icon XD XD

I think Shige should job-hunt for a movie or a NEWS TV show, LOL. Thanks for translating!

[gerbyl]

Yay, oh and it is one I havn't seen yet :)

yes please! He should totally job-hunt for that, and for a book-deal on the side, too! :D

you're welcome :)

Yeah, I think that's maybe what he meant when he wrote "adult like children", because things like working and taking over responsibility along with other things are very adult like aspects, but we're kinda forced to do that one way or the other (some sooner some later....except super rich star-kids who don't have to worry about working nor about taking over responsibility)...
but at heart, many people might still be children or something along those lines...haha

I agree that work-wise and work-experience-wise, they have become adults before all the others...very interessting point there.

ah, it's 1:42am here and I'm just staying up waiting for a good version of the new PV, so my mind may have suffered a bit from that and I can't put my words down properly >.<

[gerbyl]

ah Italy, yeah i should have guessed that from the icon i think :) (the text on the icon to be exact). Right same timezone then. but ugh..it sucks that you have no internet and no other way to DL stuff right away...I hope your friend will DL the PV for you then :D

hehe..Ohayou <3
