chu_totoro-falls over dead- That was a LOT of work. I just finished translating all of the urgent needed Busou Renkin chapters, and it was so much worse than usual translating. Because it was all missing character summaries or forewords, or, worse of all, Author's Notes on every single damned chapter...
Normally in 13 pages if you put all the text together you form maybe... two, three paragraphs? Sometimes less, on battle scenes, sometimes more. But this time I got sent 13 pages of FULL TEXT. 3-4 paragraphs on each PAGE.
So I'm sure you understand why I fell over dead. But I am rather proud of myself. After all, let's see. My last post was at 1:30 or so. Roughly 5 hours have passed. And I actually got most of my tasks done. I showered, practiced cello (for an hour, too, surprisingly enough _ _;; ), and messed around with the piano like I wanted to. Nightswimming was really repetitive. They could have saved about 2 (or 3) pages if they bothered to use the repeat sign. But it's... pretty nice. I still think the sheet music of American Pie is best, though, even though it's hard.
Anyways, after that my parents came home with shaved ice! And it had good toppings, too. Yummmmm... Ai-yu and Xian-tsao and all of that good stuff... and pearls like the ones in pearl milk tea~ and naturally they had condensed milk. =) Delicious! And THEN guess what happened. My mom dragged me away... to do deskwork for her. I had to input all of the stuff on her checkbooks into the computer. Like, who the check was to, how much it was, what category (tax? fuel? payroll?).... that took a really long time.
Then I came back. And translated till I dropped. And I actually managed to finish BR. @_@ Which makes me really happy because that means I'm still able to translate at super-speed... Chinese skills haven't deteriorated too much. Didn't look at FMA yet, but I didn't expect to finish until tomorrow. So this is good. I also cleaned my room up somewhat and played with the dog.
@_@ Did I count wrong somewhere? How did I fit that into 5 hours? I just translated for definitely over an hour, and the deskwork with mom's checkbooks was over an hour for sure, too. Cello was almost an hour... so that's about four hours... so I ate, cleaned, played (with the dog), played (piano), printed out sheet music, and showered... all in the space of one hour? No, just piano and eating should add up to that... aaaaaaah I'm confusing myself. Whatever. I somehow managed to do everything, and it can sit at that. =D
PHWAHAHA I HAVE MAD CHINESE SKILLZ
-gloat gloat gloat- Okay time for dinner.
