||
| − | ====Today's journal <small>''(updated chapter-ly)''</small>:==== |
||
| − | :OK, giant revision needed for all the previously done chapters. My sentence structures are starting to become redundant and when you're in the middle of translating, you won't realise you're not making sense at all sometimes. Leaving someone else to firgue out what you wrote is no difference from putting the whole raw book down. Especially slow progress this week, my apologies here! |
||
| + | ====Editing Programs==== |
||
| − | ====Last journal <small>''(sometimes I do multiple chapters a day, so this is just here in case you missed last one and wants to re-read it)''</small>:==== |
||
| + | Sometimes the terrible reality of the dozens of hungry Light Novels around Baka-Tsuki can seem overwhelming. But you don't have to stand by hopelessly while Light Novels are going untranslated. Find out how you can help by going to the [http://www.baka-tsuki.org/forums/ forums]! |
||
| − | :Off, big mistake made. Thanks to Cataccountant's reminder, I just realized that most of the Kirche-s in Volume 14 probably meant Sylphid, since the Chinese characters are quite similar at a glance. Damn. Now I'll have to go through all of Volume 14 starting from chapter 2 again. Well, at least this proves one thing, the drawing in Chapter 4 of Vol 14 is definitely Sylphid, not Kirche. |
||
| + | ====Work Around Baka-Tsuki==== |
||
| + | Follow one of our translators on a journey to Zero no Tsukaima as he visits different volumns and meets the chapters who are receiving good, nutritious translations thanks to the generous gifts of friends like you.

||
| − | '''Another mistake?''' |
||
| − | Sorry for bothering you again. In volume 15 Chapter 1, at first it was Kirche who showed up during Malicorne's rampage, but suddenly she disappeared and Sylphid was there. Are you sure it was Sylphid? I thought Sylphid was supposed to be more childish and she didn't seem to treat Tabitha as her Master but instead as a friend in that chapter. - Cataccountant |

||
| + | Light Novel sponsorship allows you to personally connect with a Light Novel in need while making a lasting investment in its future. Your unreserved sponsorship to the chapter provide things like great gratitudes from readers, celebrity like welcomes and other items for your personal wellbeing. |
||
| − | :In case you are wondering why I'm doing Vol 15 again, it's because I found myself at a much slower pace and am totally lost when doing Volume 13 for some reason. So, instead of focusing entirely on Vol 13, I'll be alternative between the both, so I get at least half of the fun. Hope you guys wouldn't mind too much! :D |

||
| − | =====Background===== |
||
| − | :I'm not Chinese. Well, technically, I am, but people born in Hong Kong like to differ themselves from Chinese. Or so we hope. Of course, if you get to the details, pure HK-ers can barely utter a complete sentence of Chinese, are a failure in reading simplified Chinese, and solve even the most trivial conflicts at the High Court. Other than that...,uhh~ pretty much the same. |
||
| − | =====Board Games===== |
||
| − | :We are strikingly similar to the core, culture or way of thinking. Games like Weiqi/Go and chinese chess is pretty popular in HK, I too being one of the fans, can't stop from staring at a game if we ever pass by one on the streets. |
||
| − | :Like every other Chinese, we try and ace in every possible subject while hidden from the world, then pop out of nowhere one day with trillions of rectangular sized paper with portraits of dead people on it. Unfortunately, most of us will fail and I ended up being one of them because of my bad memory and clumsiness. Still, I have my pride as an HK-ian and came forth to UT as a freshman, Mechanical Engineering. |
||
| − | == |
+ | ==Random Notes== |
| − | :If you too are one of the international students planning to spend the last few years of your teens at UT, unless you're applying for EngSci, I suggest you give up. As we all know, American Graduates are know nothing and English Graduates sparkle, while American PHDs are plain amazing and English PHDs state the obvious. I came walking in with an adequate knowledge of Mechanics, Calculus and Computer Programming. If I walk out right now, I don't think there's much difference at all. Maybe I'll come back again when I get a Master's degree. |
||
| + | ===MMORPGs=== |
||
| − | :If you haven't noticed by now, yes, I was able to write complicated programs before I left high school. Before you start dreaming which incredible high school I went to, let me tell you a fact that all I learnt in my high school was to play better chess. I learnt computer programming all by myself. you could say that it is a genetic disease for Chinese to be manipulative, or you can also say that Kongregate Labs have really good tutorials. Really good. Really really good. I'm not going to comment on their games, but the tutorials absolutely deserve praise. Flash games just can't compete with my all-time favorites, Hitman Series and Total War Shogun 2. |
||
| + | Quite a while ago, some of you asked me if I played any MMORPGs. Well, recently, I have picked up an old MMO I used to play called Mabinogi. If you want to find me there, I play on Alexia channel under the name Wildk—(human) and Wilram—(elf). Feel free to strike up a conversation with me if you want! ^^ |
||
| + | Of course, I won't let this get in the way of translation's progress, unless I'm really exhausted and need a break! |
||
| − | =====Entertainment===== |
||
| − | :As for multiplayer games, err..., most likely if you see a player called Wildk or Wilram217, it's me. I have a short temperance for MMOs so don't expect too much. Of course, we can't miss out animes. It's what got me here since I can't stand waiting a week, or even a year for a new season, not knowing what's going to happen next. Life is pathetic :P . Like every other anime fans, I would want to advertise how amazing this one is and you must definitely watch that one, but I'm going to leave the rating to you guys. Here's a short list of the ones I found most memorable. |
||
| − | |||
| − | :* Clannad After Story |
||
| − | :* Detective Conan |
||
| − | :* Kaze no Stigma |
||
| − | :* Macross Frontier |
||
| − | :* Spice and Wolf |
||
| − | :* To aru no majutsu no index |
||
| − | :* Zero no Tsukaima |
||
| − | |||
| − | :Some of them also of great OSTs. I usually listen to ones without lyrics, but Macross Frontier's OST is one exception, though.... it's in Japanese anyway and I won't understand a word. Zero no Tsukaima OSTs are also lovely, while Yosuga no Sora anime OST is breathtaking. But the most addicting one, has to go to Spice and Wolf's Wolf Whistling Song. The cuteness..... just... can't.....handle!! |
||
| − | |||
| − | =====Music===== |
||
| − | :[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q4HJhwruJRI&feature=fvwrel God Knows] how much time I have spent trying to imitate him. If you also like songs without lyrics, eventually one day, you'd have an sudden urge to play it out loud in your hands. I do know how to play quite a few instruments, Violin, Guitar and, umm, piano? OK, I have to admit, I'm not all that inward type and most of my time is spent playing foosball instead. I guess I'm not too bad at real-soccer either but as for other ball sports, nah, not too interested. |
||
| − | |||
| − | =====Sports===== |
||
| − | :On the other hand, though I may not spend much time in these sports, they are what I love most, archery and snowboarding. Both can be so simple yet challenging. Can't get enough of either. |
||
| − | |||
| − | |||
| − | |||
| − | Well, that's all I can think of to describe myself so far. If anyone wants to know more about me, unlikely but who knows, feel free to post me a message and I try and somehow connect it to what I've written so far. Either way, Happy readings! |
