PLEASE COMMENT TO BE ADDED

WARNING: Be certain to read my userinfo to make sure you really want to join. You may be signing up for something you weren't exactly intending to, as some have found out. Seriously, this place is for me to fangirl, contemplate my mundane life, and complain about things no one cares about. It's all rather boring, really.

My art be found at my art blog.

Oh yeah, and I'm kurenaiwataru on Tumblr. If you like tokusatsu and cute Japanese guys, that's probably right up your alley. It's where I post my photo book and magazine scans, as well as reblog whatever looks interesting.

P.S. Don't steal the banner art. I drew it so it's filled with lots of love. If you want to see the art and possibly steal it, at least steal it from one of the above locations.

Repository of attempted daina translations/adaptations. It's hard to wade through old dialects of Latvian that happen to also be dead dialects, but I'm gonna try it. My translations are my best interpretations of the text given, since some of the meanings are a bit lost to history. I'll add as much detail as I can, including the daina number, but this stuff is really hard to work through. Even with a searchable "English" database, it's hard to figure out where these things come from or what they're supposed to be about. Not to mention that my grasp of the Latvian language is rudimentary at best.

"Erin's poetic versions" are me attempting to make a sensible English version of the dainas while using traditional daina format, which is 4 lines where each line contains 8 syllables.

So.

Enjoy my struggle.

WOW, IT HAS BEEN A VERY LONG TIME SINCE I'VE POSTED ANYTHING.

UM.

I have a shop where you can buy things that I make. It's called Kawaii Rider Creations and it's where I'm putting one of a kind jewelry and accessories that I make by hand. That's right, HANDMADE. I just updated it with a bunch of cute things, mostly Valentine's stuff, but go ahead and check it out. It'd be nice if you guys buy something, too. I put a lot of love and energy into making these things.

If you want to know where I've been, I've pretty much moved myself to Tumblr, and you can visit it by clicking here.

Okay, back into hiding I go.

The past should give us hope.

The future shall bring us destruction.
