Massive Halloween Update

Wow, that was one long work day! But I got a ton of stuff done so I’m shattered, but very happy!

First of was a new updated version of the GenkiJapan.net talking Japanese page. This page is really popular, coming up on the top 5 in google for “learning Japanese” so I figured I should get around to updating it with all the new ideas I have. So there are now the most important dozen or so Japanese phrases, and of course if you click them they talk!

Then it was onto the Hallowe’en update. I had been thinking about putting the Halloween Theme onto the new CD, but that would mean it would have to wait till next year. So what I figured was to put it in the members area of the site, that way people everybody wins!

Recording the vocals was OK ( the music I already had produced), mind you my voice wasn’t quite as genki as it could be! But that’s the great thing about the net, I can put the ideas up there and then get feedback ( most people have said it’s great as it is!) and simply change it if there is anything that needs it. But with a CD once it’s at the factory that’s it, no going back! Which is really stressful!

Anyway, so the other main thing today was to get the clip art done for the halloween theme. Some of the words I already had, and some were new.I was really impressed with how the Vampire turned out, it looks great!

Then to write up the page, do all the links and menus, and the newsletter to send out tomorrow. And now I have to do it all again in Japanese…. I think some sleep is in order first!
