Looking forward to the trip

Wednesday, May 27th, 2009

My days are so busy, the time is flying unbelievably fast.  Which means that I’ll be flying to Japan before I know it.  How exciting!

I got a question if I’ll be making posts from Japan as well.  Yes.  And here are some of the things you might be reading about:

  • Nagoya Port Aquarium
  • Hiroshima Peace Memorial
  • Hardrock Cafe in Osaka or Tokyo? (I’ve already been to the one in Nagoya)
  • Check out some trains I normally don’t get to see, like steam locomotive Yamaguchi?  That’s a big maybe.
  • Railway Musium
  • Maybe onsen or castle or both?

Speaking of trains, I need to buy Japan Rail Pass soon.  Without it, my trip to all those different places will be much more expensive.

No Ippo?

Wednesday, May 27th, 2009

Tuesdays usually are the days I translate Ippo.  But it so happens that the raw is not available this week from our usual source.  This is going to lead to couple days of delay for us.  The team has found a raw I can use to translate.  Translation will happen tomorrow.  Oh, what a week to have this trouble…

Today, I switched to new monitors.  I went from one 22-inch widescreen and one 19-inch square monitor, to two 23-inch widescreen.  The desktop size went from 2960×1050 to 3840×1080.  It feels really big.  I love it, but I’m still not sure how to maximize this screen realestate yet.  For casual PC users, I think this Samsung 2333SW would be plenty sufficient.
