That's a bit of snow! -

nup. That's why I reckon we would answer a "ganbatte" with a yeah, thanks. But we wouldn't always state "I'll do my best!" Sounds really wanky. -

if someone is telling me ganbatte, and I answer with ganbarimasu, then in English I guess I'd answer with a "thanks" or "I will", depending on the situation. as in "Hey good luck tomorrow!" "Yeah, thanks." Yoroshiku is a slimy one isn't it! If you are saying yoroshiku to someone after asking them to do something, then I might say something like "Thanks for doing that for me." I always get stumped on how to translate yoroshiku in the sense of "kore kara ~san no koto, yoroshiku ne" It would sound really lame to say "Please take care of so-and-so for me from here on." I think this is ju -

Sitting on your bum all day. Right on the head O11! These are the bits I hated most about translating. Especially clients who think their English is better than yours. Well why the **** ask for a translator??

or at least it does when you work at a school all week and then they make you work Saturday mornings all but one Saturday a month! I'm sitting at work now, at 10:30-ish on a Saturday morning wishing I was either out boarding or at home in bed What bits and pieces of your working conditions really give you the shits? I don't mean work in general either, of course all of us would rather not have to work at all. Just the particularly annoying parts.

while we're on that topic... A rabbit and a bear are sitting side by side, having a crap in the woods one day. The bear looks at the rabbit and says "Oi! Rabbit!" The rabbit looks at the bear and says "What?" The bear looks back at the rabbit and says, "Oi! Rabbit, do you have a problem with shit sticking to your fur?" The rabbit looks back at the bear and says "No, I don't." So the bear picks up the rabbit and wipes his bum with it. -

I have exactly the same problem. Get some great pics and have a crap boarding session, or leave the cam at home and enjoy the boarding. This year I'm gonna use the cam in my keitai and see how that goes. They are finally at a dec -
