        this sign (kanji) 日 (hi/nichi) originally meant sun, and litteraly translates as

        the other sign you might find 月 (getsu) is the sign for moon, and translates as months.
        (thinking about it, it sounds quite archaic...5th time the sun appears after the 3rd full moon :P)
        even tho the numbers itself should be self explanatory, hihi

        but even if u don't speak japanese, like i do, google translation usually works wonders with such serialized information.

        IMO every sz-member should be required to do a japanese class for beginners *lol* to be able to compete in yahoo.jp bids, hahahaha
        but that is what makes the language so beautiful to me.
        it is more conceptual rather than so literal. when i was learning chinese and japanese in undergrad (dont remember much from it- never try to take chinese and japanese at the same time- total brain fuck), that was my favorite part. learning kanji and understanding that 木 meant tree and evolved from the drawing of a tree and relates to the essence of the tree and its being and all related to it. rather than just tree.
        Distraction is an obstruction of the construction.

          Ancient Chinese is like that for sure. Even though the writing has evolved, you can break it down into its components and still "see" the meanings. The chinese characters for happy, open, fly and cry stick out most to me off the top of my head for easily characterizing the meaning behind them.

              Didn't you sell one of those a minute back (Who?)? Do you guys who sell things ever regret it? I think I might start just giving things I like but am tired of to friends until I see them wear it since that usually makes me go, "I want those again!" so that I can just take them back.

                that's a great idea. Yes I did sell that same parka about 2 months ago. That is the only item that I have had second thoughts about selling. Its ok though, one day another size 1 will show up and I will buy it.

                              Do you know how the pants fit uparmoured? Are they on the tight side like the invisible seam pants or the jointed pants or looser?
