Shikata's Blog - 2010.07.13

phio69, please remove the last sticky. I'll do this sticky with dates this time.

Akiko is working hard: composing, arranging, singing, writing scores. For the two weeks to come after this one, she'll be working on the instrumentals.

She mentions not being able to make string quartets in a while, and shares her liking for her strings synthesizer, which has its own unique sound that can still compete with those of the real instruments. She wants to compose with it once she's practiced enough. She'll accompany these future compositions with brass instrumentals.

Akiko will compose with someone using these scores.She doesn't reveal which, in specific, she will use ("It's a secret.") because she thinks that the news will spread quickly. But she also assures us that we needn't wait long.

To break the ice a bit more (an "omake"), she posts a picture of bath salts that she'd searched stores for. It was difficult, she was able to obtain five of the variations of the bath salt. If she were to use them soon, the fragrance will help her relax.

She comments on the cover of a bath salt: the bird is cute.

hmm, okay. you can actually do that yourself, you know. you have the power to do so. ^^
I think I'll make a forum for your translations of her blog entries, maybe that's easier. the forum will be used to keep all your translations. we'll stick the last entry only. what do you think? ^^

now, on to the the entry. wow, she's such a hard worker. oh my, instrumental? string quartet? now this is beyond my imagination! wow, she's such an amazing person. oh, I thought she's gonna have some people playing the instruments. I wonder why she has to use a synthesizer?

bath salt? XD such an item. she loves to spend time on bath too, huh? well, probably she can relax and get more ideas that way. XD

thanks for the interesting translation!!

Oh wow, she really is a hard worker. She really loves music and enjoys making it. So awesome. I wish I was talented like she is.

I'm really curious about this secret. I can't wait to find out!

hummm. all that talk about bath salts made me remember of Ar Tonelico 2 XD

Also,Akiko likes birds eh?her blog template,Vangracy site template,and a lot of other references, have birds as themes XD

yep, you're completely right. I laughed at you mentioning Ar tonelico 2 and bath salts. XD brings back memories, eh? ^^

and yeah, you're right. she really loves it, it seems.
