Why, thank you very much ;). I forgot to note that I dont look quite
*that* light. I used the stretch detail option in my photo editor to bring
out highlights and deepen shadows (makes my hair look jet black), and
added a touch of blueness to bring the red down. Gives the image a kind of
bleached/overexposed look I think (and it's only a week old too...taken in
front of Boudin's Bakery in SanFrancisco's Fisherman's Wharf)

This reminds me. When i wrote out my name in katakana in front of a friend
who had studied for a year in Japan, she remarked that my handwriting was
"girly" . Apparently it's too neat for guys, she says. Which dosnt
surprise me too much because I write much neater in  other scripts than I
do in Latin script (which if you see my class notes looks more like a
scrawl than writing).
