Apologize for not updating the past few days. I have been just way too busy. There was a long weekend last week and I was out of the house the whole day during the weekend.

Here’s a ‘teaser’ picture of Nida Schuetlich from Shuraki Box 04. My PC is down again - yes, I am getting a new 500GB hard drive after Japanese class tomorrow and have been backing up my data. Damn those 320GB Seagate Barracudas. I have two (including the current one) that have died on me! Got to get them RMA-ed.

Just a note, I realized that Photoshop doesn’t seem to read my camera’s RAW files properly. After editing a photo in Photoshop and saving it as a JPEG file, the colors are duller and the effects are different from what I want - so I have to turn the effects up way higher than what I see in Photoshop, which is quite a bother. It’s probably my laptop’s (Acer) color management.
