Adventures of Nemone
Decided to let the Kiki Chronicles fade away into the archives and start a fresh new project. What exactly I'll use the journal for is still pending.
Japanese Translations
For my something new I thought maybe it wouldn't be a bad idea to try translations instead of coding. I am going to try translating a news article or book excerpt from Japanese every day/week to see if it improves my Japanese at all. Of course if it doesn't work out these journal entries may be deleted and we'll forget all about this. LOL. This is just a small part of a news article. I think for now I may start with shorter excerpts or phrases like this because long passages wear me out.

VOCAB

MVP Bennet-
Literally is "player Bennet who controlled the Super Bowl to decide the champion" but MVP is easier. I noted this here because I got stuck on it for a minute or two with all the grammar involved.
