♡ a delicate time ~妙な時間~

When I finally finished my study plan for applying my visa (of course I paused to sing a little or take a rest during the writing), the clock of my computer came into my sight.
20:20:20.
A delicate time.
That's why I wanted to write something for my blog that I haven't updated for a while.
In past a few days, I was preparing for applying my visa. Certainly, I needed to fill some forms. However, problems showed here. Mainly, that was about only one point. That was, about writing Kanji. Since the last June (maybe even earlier), for going to study abroad, I lived in English mode all the time (actually, now, I'm in it too...). In one hand, I was told that my English got improved; in the other hand, I also knew my kanji-witting is decreasing sharply. I can write most commonly used kanji, but in case of those are not used often, I'd got to “draw” them with samples. orz...
I wanna know the reason, since I KNOW all kanji clearly...
Well, maybe I should forget it...
Yesterday night, I listened Eiko Shimamiya's album “ULYSSES.” Wah, that's wonderful! I could only cry with it and thus I fell in love with it. I listened to it until this noon! Particularly, I like these songs: “ULYSSES,” “Sukarabe no Inori,” “Mosquito,” “VANILLA,” and “LOVER.” (Hold on! There are only 9 tracks in the album!)
It's also yesterday night's event, about my fiction.
Frankly, my nickname was born from it. Before I started to write, it was fine to use the nickname freely. Anyways, when I began to write in the last year, each time when I work on it, I couldn't do with ease, and I felt like that I'm not me... as a result, at the time when my limitation of bearing the same name starts to break down (that is, NOW), I broke out my eighth revolution for my fiction.
I will not change the main frame of the fiction, and what I will change are only to change some names, and to fix some tiny point so that I may get the whole plot straight.
I will write about it soon, so let me stop the topic now (also with today's blog).
There are still so many Kalafina blog posts to be translated... (I'm a kind volunteer♪♪~ ;__; )
ついにビザのための学習計画を書き終えて(中途半端にて唄ったり休んだりすることがもちろんある)、あくびをしながらパソコンの時計を目にした。
20:20:20。
妙な時間。
だからこそ、なんてお久しぶりのブログをひとつ書こうね♪~と思ってた。
先日いろんなビザに必要なものを支度に行った。無論いろんなフォームをフィルしなくちゃ。ただし、いろんな問題もこんな時から浮かび上がった。いや、主に問題はひとつだけ。それは、漢字についてった。昨年(より早い時期かもしれないが)6月から、私は海外進学するため、ずっとずっとEnglish Modeのまま生きていた(実は今もこんなに生きてるが…)。英語がだんだん上手になると言われるうちに、実に漢字を書く能力が急降下していることを知るのがこの最近だった。よく使われる文字はなかなか書けるけど、ほかの文字を書くときは描きのように見本を沿って描いていられない。orz...
なんでよ、これ、目に見ても一つ一つもよく知ってるのに…
はあ、まあ…
さて、昨日の夜は島みやえい子さんのアルバム「ULYSSES」を聞いた。わぁ~素敵です!と呼ぶだけができるほど私はこのアルバムと恋に堕ちた。今日の午後までもずっと聞いてるんところだよ。私、とっくに「ULYSSES」、「スカラベの祈り」、「Mosquito」、「VANILLA」、「LOVER」が好きです(おいおい、アルバムに全部は9曲しかないんだぜ)!
また昨日の夜からの出来事だった。私のフィクションに関することです。
正直に言えば、私自分のニックネームはアレから生まれだした。自分が筆を落とす前に、ヒロインの名前をどんなに使ってもかまわないが、昨年からアレを書くたびに、何とか自分が見られるような気がしていて落ち着くことが出来なくて…というわけで、また同じ名前を背負う我慢の限界が崩れている間(つまり今という時期)、私は我がフィクションへの8番目の革命を始動した。
大体の結構は動かずに、キャラクターの名前などを変え、あちこち小さくフィックスして全物語を一直線になおすことは、今度のカクメイの目的です。
最近の日に詳しく言うから、今日はここまで(久しぶりのブログとも一緒にっ)。
またたくさんのKalafinaブログを翻訳しなくちゃ… (私はいい志願者だから♪♪~ ;__; )

★ laptopon

I bought a new laptop in the beginning of May.
During that time, I mean, early days of May, I just finished sets of fan art for FictionJunction & Kalafina. Then I wondered, to draw something for my new laptop wasn't a bad idea. That was, laptopon, laptop fairies.
My new laptop, Sony VAIO VGN-CS27, is white. Thus I decided to give her white/silver hair, like Suigintou from Rozen Maiden. About her name, in fact, I didn't work much on it. Her name was taken from the title of my next picture album (since I've decided not to divide my picture albums into bigger parts, I've canceled all previous upper-level-titles of my albums. You may see the change in my HdH album page ). Anyways, her name is Kosmoton. I merged two German words together: Kosmo- and ton. That mean “Cosmic” and “tone,” respectively.
When I started to draw, I found how bad I am in changing my drawing style. I couldn't draw her with difference from my major drawing works >_> By the way, at the same time, I also drew another laptopon for Ms. L.'s laptop for fun. As a result, the two laptopons were just like Arietta and Tohne from my own too-far-to-be-finished fiction, orz...

more, go to here
But, that's ok. At least you may differentiate them via the colors of hair!
And, I updated my laptop's memory to 4GB. Then the drawing program ran amazingly smooth! :O

There're ome new updates from my daily life:
I re-saved all my previous text document into *.odt format, that is about half regular *.doc sized. \^o^/
I'm fighting in re-ripping my CDs in to lossless wma format, and have got the size of my music library 6 times increased.
I received my ordered BACH/MOZART complete box, but not start to enjoy them yet. <___<
I'm going to apply for my new passport/visa in the next week, which is a time-consuming issue. I just hope there will not be more trouble during the application. >___>;; OMG, I should have applied it earlier, but I didn't. ;__;
I will continue to write my fiction, that I haven't updated for a long time >__>... and I also hope the damn swine flu disappear earlier! So I can take tours then!!
Finally, congratuations on Kalafina's new blog! More translation works for me. >.<

✯ Those Drawings were a Rush

In the last Friday evening, I suddenly realized that I'd got to do something others. I mean, I've ever drawn a suit of fan art for my favorite composer Yuki Kajiura. But that's not enough for me. I just watched the PV of their new coming single (today's the release date ) and got excited to draw more of them.
So, what to draw this time? I my brain cells of drawing and designing have died out since my last drawing. Thus this time I wanted to mimic their real photos.
Mainly, Yuki Kajiura is active in her FictionJunction and Kalafina, so I chose the photo from the booklet of Everlasting Songs and sprinter/ARIA, plus the nice photo on the official FJ website to draw.
Making the draft was fast, I finished all drafts in less than 2 hours. But later drawing on my tablet was really time-consuming. The deadline to submit fan arts is April 30, that is, tomorrow. After the first day's drawing (actually that should be the second day, April 26), I thought I mis-used my right arm and got it sour. Everyday I changed my Google-talk status: I draw in rather a rushed pace so that people might saw different status of morning and evening. Sometimes, even if I have finished the drawing of characters, it was more difficult to merge them into wallpapers; making wallpapers was more time-consuming!
Anyways, when I finished the last one, I was so happy~ Now, finally I could move myself to write something to my music goddess and singing angels ♪♪~
But, it's hard to leave message to them... maybe it's easy only in case of Yuriko Kaida.
That may be:
I love you.
