Wherefore art thou fair Blue and Black DS? [Daniel]
For is this a case of lost or found before me, or merely the faulty memory of the mind?
I have amongst Shakespeare misquotes managed to! Or somehow, unforeseeably! Lose my Blue and Black DS accompanied by treasures of all treasures my kanji dictionary!
This treasure, found in a far off land full of sushi, shinkansen, and… onsen, is my one and only source of unlocking the secrets of the most mysterious script of kanji. With it I can at will scrawl down the shapes I see and get an instant translation/thesaurus/analysis of what ever it is that confounds me. The ramifications of this technology has sped my Japanese learning to almost unthinkable distances! And now… through no fault of my own I have lost it to the winds of fate.. time… some wind. All I did was bring it into university in my bag and suddenly! It has disappeared with nary (or no) trace at all!
At first I thought it would be at home, but lo, I, looking high, looking low, could not find a trace of it. My mind filled with denial screamed out a no to the fact presented before me, that the DS was lost.
No, it must surely be displaced, I am a forgetful person, yet not to the point of leaving anything behind when I go out. It should surely be home.
Unfortunately it is not, and so after a week, I have expanded my search to encompass all the places that I could have possibly left it and come up with naught.
So I ask you faceless internet will you provide me with a boon? Of unforeseeable luck? That a passerby may have seen my Black and Blue DS from Japan with a game card that acts as a dictionary?
Please?
In anycase I’ll live in hope. Something other than my DS will most assuredly occupy the next post.
Adieu,
Daniel
