From the iBook

Ad Mundo Exteriore,

Hey, I'm writing this from the iJournal client on my iBook! ::cheers::

Um...hm...I forgot to post a link to the MST, so I'll do it now. Lydia, kaydee and I plus some other people from RL MSTed a horribly written wedding fic, and it's on kaydee's LJ at kaydeefalls. You can't read it if you aren't on her friends list, but I'm sure she'll oblige if you ask nicely.

::hums:: I'm supposed to be working on my college applications right now, or rather I'm supposed to be eating dinner and then working on my college applications, but instead I'm sitting at the dinner table typing away at this Mac. I don't even have much to say.

Oh, Lyd-chan, I tried to go to that forum through the link on your LJ, but it wouldn't let me connect. But as soon as I get through, I'll barge in and lay about with a mace. Or a club. Or a stiff dead wombat. Well, I'll try to do it, if I can get online this weekend.

Guess what? I've just discovered that this client lets you automatically switch journals. That's so cool. I was too lazy to post in any of the communities, but maybe I will. From the Mac only that is, unless there's something similar in Semagic that I didn't notice.

I've been working on my Yuki skin, and I've decided to go ahead and finish it after all. I will not make a series though, as I had originally planned. (One for each of the Juunishi. But that will not be happening anymore.) First I can't find enough pictures, and second, I want to try my hand at making a techy skin. einai has inspired me with his? her? Aya skin with the oh-so-cool LCD screen style. I drool over that skin. So I want to try making an official Ender's Jeesh skin after all. But that'll probably happen around Christmas break.

I've discovered that my name in Chinese characters transliterates to something like Sumomo Natsuda in Japanese. Isn't that weird? And doesn't Natsuda sound like a boy's name? But the "da" is clearly feminine. My iBook has a Japanese kanji dictionary, a kana chart, a Korean hanja dictionary and a whole lot of other neat goodies. I don't need to go bug the Four Cats mailing list about Japanese names anymore. Well, actually, since I have no idea whether the names I'm inventing sound all right in Japanese, I may have to do so after all. Oh well. Trying to piece together a rudimentary understanding of Japanese from fansubbed anime, Tryo-chan, and Korean hanja characters is a considerable feat, but I'm up to it. I think.

thanks. I'm trying not to think about them, but I keep going over their idiotic comments in my head and... arrgghh. You don't have to get involved, though, really.
