Haa, we back in the Bunpro business, I did some lessons today and I was like…

…is this not N5???? xddd

But yeah, if I still want to focus more on the N3 grammars, taking it easier for a while with N4 reviews should make it possible for me to focus on learning N3 things and reviewing stuff in the background ^^

Spent something like 3 hours learning Japanese today, across manga reading and normal reviews, I mentioned yesterday how today was supposed to be really easy, so I spiced it up by reading the book clubs I missed the first parts of xddd

I have a feeling that 銀の匙 is perfectly doable, but フリーレン has a lot of meandering and I read a sentence and go like “eeee so now that i’ve read it what was that supposed to mean” and then I read the same line in Polish and I get reminded of that scene of Bill Murray in Lost in Translation waiting for a proper translation of what the ad director is talking about and the translation of an entire rant is like two words long and nothing got lost in the translation and everything got lost in translation xdddd

I also watched the whole Netflix miniseries called Adolescence with German subs today and let me tell you, I was SHOOK, SHOOK I’m telling you xddd
I mean, I knew that that was happening already, but I’ve never seen a 13-year old act like he’s not acting at all so good, it felt scary real, or maybe it was real??? xd
I mean, it probably is real for a few people, but I hope I never get to meet those people xdd

Only left the home for a few kilometers on a bike today to grab a bubble tea, needed to recharge my social batteries and they still don’t feel perfectly recharged, but are they ever really?

Me and friends on Discord found the worldwide cost of living map on the internet today and colors are pretty and there are some unexpected outliers, I didn’t know it’s cheaper to live in Brazil or India than to live in Ghana, Kenya or Uganda, granted, I’m definitely behind on visiting the African continent, so if anyone has any cool stories from those places, please share!

WaniKani tomorrow will be really hard, whew, I hope I manage to score a few burns ^^

Anywayyy, see you again tomorrow!
