I’m in a slump. That’s definitely it. I’m still going with my japanese language lessons but it isn’t going fast enough for me.

For example? I was browsing about Manga Jouhou’s forum a while ago and saw many groups needing Japanese to English translators for mangas. I desperately wanted to raise my hand and say “Me! I can translate!” and then my conscience says “Like hell, you do. You’ll translate slower than a snail can move.” Oh my conscience, as brutal as always.

We’re going to the province for a few days this Holy Week holidays and I’m planning determined to bring along my japanese study book. Who knows, I just might sneak in some lessons in between playing at the carnival booths and joining the rides.

Be forewarned that this is a rant, and I do hope an exhaustive one, just to release the irritation.

Kyou Kara Maou (God Save our King) is going to be available in local television in the Philippines soon. So what’s so bad about that when I was just raving on how great the anime is a few days ago?

It’ll be re-dubbed in our native language, Tagalog. Read the rest of this entry »

We’ve recently moved our office to a new building and I have to agree that the new location is definitely better. It’s bigger, has a conference room, its own male and female restrooms and its across several food establishments, including Starbucks! ^^

The crowning point that cinched it was something that made me wince in chagrin. The new office is right across the building where I used to take my Japanese classes! And I mean, literally, across the street, a mere 3 meters from the entrance of our building.

Is this the universe’s way of telling me that I should continue with my nihonggo classes? ^_^
