I shall post a real entry later, when I finish my draft of that evil thing known as EE. I still have 800 words to go to get to my goal of 3500. Oi. It’s going to be a long, long night. And I still won’t have a conclusion. Oi oi oi oi oi. This is going to be very, very bad. Oh well. I’m still glad I did an English paper, since it’s probably the easiest one. (Although sometimes I wonder… did I get into IB just to do the least work possible and get the diploma…?)
In other news, two of my favourite songs of late have been Maaya Sakamoto’s “Kodoku” and Chihiro Onitsuka’s “Beautiful Fighter.” Haven’t been able to find a translation for the latter. My Japanese isn’t good enough to attempt a translation, anyway. “Kodoku”, on the other hand, is quite easily found on {{link http://www.animelyrics.com/ AL.com}}.
**Kodoku**
ushinaeba soko ha kanashii sekai ga
hirogatte boku o uchi no mesu darou
mujintou ni iru you na hateshi no nai
