Nihongo no baka
Feb. 8th, 2010 07:40 pm^--Probably a horrible translation of "Japanese for Dummies", the title of one of the books I picked up at the Burlington Barnes & Noble: I decided it was time I stopped fooling around and bought that as well as a Japanese/English dictionary. To my amusement, I've worked out rough possible translation for the name of a certain devious gentleman of taste, and discovered that one meaning of it could be "peaceful hawk", which only half suits him.
Also got yet another bargain journal (with a different cherry blossom print than previous one) and the second book in George R.R. Martin's "A Song of Ice and Fire", since I'm in "Gaaah, can't put this down" mode reading the first one. Despite the fact that GRRM seems to have trouble writing teenaged girls that don't flirt with the edges of Mary Sue territory (but then again... most Mary Sues are the Author Avatars of a lot of teenaged girls); I'm of a mind to reach in and push Sansa into a convenient puddle of mud, though I like Arya's spunk (despite the fact that she sometimes veers toward being the cliche tomboyish princess/young noblewoman).
Also finished another Fanfic Rose, which I hope to get typed later tonight and posted sometime tomorrow, as I've got one ready to go at my usual fic-release time (ie. just after midnight)
