As for my mistakes - I'm typing fast and blindly so due to bad eyesight I sometimes miss a lot of mistakes/typos. Sometimes my eyes are elsewhere off the screen so I have to relay on the dexterity of my fingers
It sounds very interesting indeed! It would be great if I could do paid translations at times when I am a bit older. I could be a translator now (theoratically) but I do not have enough time to perfect my English. Why don't you get glasses or contact lenses? Is it because you don't want to get used to wearing them all the time? It must be very tiring to work nights, mustn't it? I have been spending more and more days studying till 4-5 am recently, so I can imagine how hard it must be to work nights. Some say studying is harder than work though.
