Glad I saw this this morning! Congratulations, you’re getting close to that elusive level 180 now, I think we’ll all have to chip in and buy you another cake when you hit that one.
But seriously, great work. The dedication is impressive - definitely something I wish I had more of - and I need to come back later and look into the resource breakdown more. I definitely appreciate the Satori Reader recommendation, don’t know if it was from your blog or elsewhere but since we’re all a community working together, you deserve as much credit as anyone.
Major congrats on level 120, that’s extreme dedication!! Also your study log being so long and detailed is super impressive! I’ve looked through a bit of it when it pops up and I’m always impressed with how consistent you are
Big congrats on the double level 60. This is a really nice post and it’s fun to read your study log where you’re really a mile a minute with activities even when you’re just doing a normal routine.
I heard an older relative of mine say one day; “you are a searcher, it’s in your blood, you will never be able to be completely satisfied with things in life”, it’s the way how we roll here on the Bidoof island.
I really liked this quote, and I can relate a bit to it, it made me feel a bit better, thank you
I can’t even express what a momentous achievement this is – you should be so, so proud and I hope you savored every bite of that cake (and honestly, you should eat two cakes).
Your energy and curiosity and positivity are all so inspirational and motivational! I know I am not the only one who learns so much from your daily adventures. I can’t wait to see what level 180 will bring…!
sorry for the late replies, but i’m very grateful for all of you leaving your comments!
i am writing from an airport right now, what a neat little parallel ^^
thank you crabigator C:
oh no, they found me ^^
gratitude and ambition are two opposite forces that pull on both at the same time to completely opposite directions, this post is the one where i decided gratitude take the steer, but we’re busy at work to also let ambition have the steer sometimes ^^
thank you very much! i’ll try my best C:
every day is an adventure, noticing it is the most important bit ^^
thank you for the wishes! ^^
koichi is trying to hold me down, the badge caps at only 60 xdd
quite the opposite, once you reach level 60, you get an email where koichi is trying to shoosh you and make you go away, but i’m a contrarian so i decided to stay a little longer… five years longer in fact >:[[[[[ xddd
yep! in fact, this was also the first one i used, and my original level 60 post mentions it too! rikaikun/rikaichamp have been really influential tools back in the day, if you’ve already set up yours, cherish it!
thank you for lurking in my log! i hope i’ll always have something fun to talk about there C:
i hope you stick to writing as long as it’s fun! i already saw you have a lot of nice things to add, so just keep going and we might have something special at hand ^^
you’ve influenced the manga i’ve read today already, post in a few hours ;___; xddd
i know it might appear as if i’m dodging you as it’s not the first time you wrote something similar, but i’m keeping your invitations in mind and thinking that we could do something together in the future: i can’t make any promises, but i’d really, really like to do something with you at one point in the future: whether it’s a book/vusial novel club, a call or just jumping to Copenhagen, I’ll try to keep you updated if I figure something out ^^
thank you for the comments as well!
shamelessly stolen from your level 60 post, of course ^^
ahh it’s not a biggie, it’s oNLY 1/30 OF YOUR ENTIRE LIFETIME IF YOU’RE GOING CLOSE TO FULL SPEED, it’s almost nothing xddd
I think if you’re planning on studying Japanese in the background anyway, might as well just have an SRS running regardless, be it JPDB, WaniKani or Anki, just something to click click cards away ^^
oo, this is a very good quote, something i have to internalize myself, decision-making is a valuable skill, definitely ^^
nyanks C:
your streams will also get there before too long, i appreciate you being ready to broadcast your study routines online as well ^^
silent readers are also a very important part of the brand, thank you very much for reading the posts as well! C:
OOH OKAY <clicks reset immediately>
why are so many people just wishing for me to throw away another year of my life smhing my head xddddd
GOOD ONE ME LIKEY thank you xddd
welcome to the searcher club! let’s keep searching, yet never finding things together! ^^
so does it scale that by the time you hit level 300, the government mandates five cakes for you? i need to get down to it as quickly as possible then ^^
thank you everyone for the level 60 wishes and good luck on all of your journeys: i hope that all of your language learning goals come true and that your life is going to have all sorts of joys and adventures inside of them! C:
No worries, I don’t feel ignored at all! I also considered going to your city for the fall vacation that just happened, since I have a bro living there, but ended up dropping the idea because I’m still tired from the last travel in July to France. Meanwhile, you’ve been traveling to 3 continents this year already xD
But anyway, chances are high that I’ll come eventually, I’ll let you know if it happens! The stars might align one day
don’t start putting ideas in her head!
xddd
