I don't have a whole lot to yap about at the moment, what with school being out and all, so I'll regale you with some interesting nuggets o' Japanese language this week. So let's dust off the DFP KaiSho Medium font and get to work! First off, we've got this: how to...
Hoo-lee fuck, Friday sucked. With the exception of the pictures, today is going to be one big bitch-fest, so if you don't like listening to me complain (and who doesn't like that?), go away. The day started with graduation, which went as you would expect. An...
