Arrows

This took me a while to translate, and even still, I’m sure I made a ton of errors and left out many nuances that I am not skilled enough to notice.  Nonetheless, this is one of my favorite songs by Bump of Chicken.  The lyrics discuss many things in life, and perhaps what it means [...]

Moleskine Entries

So I bought a Moleskine notebook around two years ago.  It was a bit overpriced for a small notebook, but perhaps its true value is much more than the value of the money I used to pay for it.  In it, I have divulged my inner confusions, and have attempted to unravel the knots in [...]

SF Photopost

We set out for SF around noon, and took the F-line from Berkeley.  The trip took over an hour, but was still perhaps better than taking the bart.  After arriving, we had to find our way to get to Embarcadero, which pretty much involved heading North.  Among the places we planned to visit were the [...]

The view from my window

Here are some photos taken with my Canon SD750 from my dorm room window. I liked the lighting at that particular time of the day, so I thought I’d share it. These two were both edited to enhance the tonal ranges, since the original exposures were a bit dark. The enhanced photos are actually closer [...]

空の欠片翻訳

Inspired by thekoalaz.
This is the ending song for Dennou Coil, an anime that takes place in a futuristic world, where reality and virtual reality are difficult to distinguish for the characters.  Without going into too much detail, one of the major themes throughout Dennou Coil was the distance that separates people.  The characters are able [...]
