... another 'interesting' phrase:
Gespenster zu verbieten, stand nicht in der Macht des japanischen Feudalstaats. ("The prohibition of ghosts was not in the power of the Japanese feudal state")

No way!

In other news, as I shut down my computer yesterday I realised that this is Ring*Con weekend. And I spent all of Saturday...... reading and learning.
To be honest, I hadn't even realised that the Con was this weekend. Completely forgot about it, only realised it when, just as I got ready to go to bed, a fandom friend came online and I thought "Huh, how come she's up so late? .... oh. Right." I'd kind of intended to go there at least for the Saturday, and... completely forgot that it was this weekend.
I'm growing up, aren't I? ;_;

At least I think by now I have delineated my topic for the Japanese exam (that is, the essay part). Of course, I won't know until I have convincingly explained it to the professor and she's said something along the lines of "Yes, I can work with that".
(This is the nice professor and it's immensely difficult for me to do this. I have no idea how I'm supposed to talk to the other exam professors.
I'm not growing up after all. >_>)

ETA: Speaking of forgetting events, though: -- next week/weekend sees the annual Game Fair in Essen. Anyone going? I've been thinking about going either on Thursday or Friday and figure it would be more fun not to go alone...

I didn't go and pick up the results of the exam yesterday. Firstly, I had promised my grandmother to come and visit her in the time the office was open. Secondly, as long as I don't know that I failed, it's as if I hadn't failed, right?

Jörg and I finally got to watch Stage Beauty yesterday. OME such an excellent movie. If you haven't seen it, do it now. Hmmmmmmm, Kynaston.

Went to the Game Fair in Essen today. It was nice; the fantasy/ roleplaying part seemed much larger than it was last year. I randomly met Werner, who recognized me, and Olwë, who didn't, but already has a celebrity's ability to say "hello" to everyone who greets him as if he knew exactly who he was talking to. Heh. Oh, and I also met Jenny Dolfen, who drew me a sketch of Fëanor. I can die happy now. *worships*

I also found a Christmas present for my father and for [livejournal.com profile] eliathanis, and I got two wooden bowls that would ordinarily have cost €21 for €10, whee.

The way home from Essen took ages, though, because the train I meant to take was cancelled, so I took another one, which went to Düsseldorf Airport, where the next train was delayed. Gaaaah.

I have a head-ache now. And I'm trying to sort through the Ring*Con photos so I can finally do my con diary thingy which no one wants to read but which will make me feel like I accomplished at least something so I just do it anyway.
