Can you tell I'm bored?

I just took this shot, yes, it's my own back...lol...and some of my braids. I liked how it came out, including the angle, the way the composition (or lack thereof) turned out and even how it looks kinda washed out.

Let's see how good my skillz still are:

Phoibe, se men kai kuknos upo pterugon lig aeidei okhthe(?) epithroskon potamon
para dinhenta Peneion se d aoidos ekhon thormigga ligeian eduepes proöton* te kai uotaton aien aeidei.

Kai su men outo khaire anas ilamai de s' aoide.

I fully admit that I never learned what the diacritics meant :P I also apologise to Him for my butchering it.


*I don't remember which one gets the diacritic in that word...

I looked up the actual Greek:

Phoibe, se men kai kuknos hupo pterugôn lig' aeidei,
ochthêi epithrôskôn potamon para dinêenta,
Pêneion: se d' aoidos echôn phorminga ligeian
hêduepês prôton te kai hustaton aien aeidei.

kai su men houtô chaire, anax, hilamai de s' aoidêi


Not too shabby, if I say so meself :P My biggest issues were the diacritic breaths.

awesome. Unfortunately, I don't actually know any greek myself, I took it from one of the Loeb's Classics editions.
