Random Thoughts

Random ideas, memories, idle chatter, and most of them are composed of more than one entry.

Running Around

shin angiyou onshi gaideI feel like I’m running around, to and fro, from whichever place I am needed. Running a scanlation site isn’t as easy as it’s cracked up to be, especially if you’re the main supplier of scanned manga for your group, advertising it on various sites, recruiting members, updating the website, coordinating with the staff members. I’m not complaining. It’s hard work but even though I get tired, I am loving every moment of it, especially when you get positive comments and reactions from visitors. It makes everything worthwhile.

And no, this entry has nothing to do with the image for this post. I just really like it so I included it here. I have a right to be random once in a while, can’t I? ^^

Busy as a Bee

ion mangaNo, I haven’t abandoned this site. A lot of things has just keep me busy these days. Sometimes I wonder if I’ll ever have enough time for them all or I’ll just boycott them and sleep all day. Believe me, the urge is overwhelming.

  • Created and organized the scanlation group of Aerandria
  • Bought hosting and moved Swordian.com and chibilicious.com to this server
  • Transferred the Winglica forum to Winglicans
  • Translating the manga Ai Hime – Ai to Himegoto
  • Trying to recruit staffers for Aerandria
  • Added two new shops in the Winglica forum like Mystical Creatures and Toy Shop
  • Scanning my various manga
  • Watching the live-action series of Kurosagi. Hey, this is part of learning japanese!
  • Proofreading transcripts for the manga scanlations

So yes, I believe I have my work cut out for me in the coming weeks. T_T

Miser!

Apparently, I ‘m a miser. Of nonexistent money. Michan and I were talking about Winglica Forum and its posting currency, which is in Wings. We have purchased ‘virtual pets’ in there which we take care of and train.

me: pet training is so expensive…
michan: urgh. yesh it is T_T
me: we’re a couple of misers.. XDD
michan: you’re talking to the one who raised 30K in less than a month for tamachii 8D
me: i know….
me: we like making money.. but we don’t like spending it..
michan: exactly >D
michan: do you think we’ll burn in hell for this? T_T;
me: XDDDD
me: for refusing to spend Wings?.. I don’t know..
michan: XDD
me: i can’t even bring myself to purchase the Deviruchi yet…
michan: i can’t even bring myself to purchase the Munak O_o;;;
me: XDDD
me: *wants a Sohee too*
michan: homg yez XDD
me: now we’re a bunch of misers who window shop when we can perfectly afford it…. XD
me: not to mention the drooling..
michan: well you can certainly afford it
michan: having reached 1M already O_O
me: how much is it?
michan: the sohee?
michan: it’s slightly more expensive than the munak/bongun
michan: but cheaper than the deviruchi
michan: and by now you’re earning like 50K/day without batting an eyelash XD
me: I like to look at it and imagine it’s real money
michan: me too XD;;

//edit
If I see this, that means we’re in the new server already.
