Let's just say that even though I have experience translating Arabic > English, the text I received was no piece of cake.

So I completely forgot I was supposed to do this, despite getting the message a while ago. Whoops. I'll translate it now.

Ugh, sorry it's taking me so long. I wasn't around, so I couldn't do it. Hopefully I can finish the translation tomorrow.

My translation does, indeed, suck. It's extremely funny though. Kinda interesting. If only I could really understand what's it all about...

Finally sent it. By the way, I didn't realize Sinjana was Serafín; I thought it was a random newbie XD... And I named a town in my NaNo novel after him. Using the pronunciation /sinjana/.
