:white_check_mark: WK reviews
:white_check_mark: WK lessons
:white_check_mark: Anki reviews
:white_check_mark: Psychiatrist appointment
:white_check_mark: 1 Mimo lesson at least

My appointment went well.
My psychiatrist was very understanding and supportive as usual. I think he might be a fellow autistic awkward but caring person lol.
We are going to try a new treatment, hopefully my body reacts well to it.

As expected the travel really drained me, but it was totally worth it.

I can see the daily reviews are really great for stimulating my brain, my memory is getting better day by day!!

A developper friend asked me to code something for him, he won’t pay a lot because it’s a relatively simple script, but this will be the first time I get payed for coding smth!!

がんばります! ᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ

I’m still pretty exhausted from the trip from yesterday.
Being neurospicy really sucks sometimes.

I can’t wait to work. >.<
My partner got less hours of work than expected this year, so our budget is really going to be tight.

No FCC, Mimo and Kata studies today.
I still needed to rest.
Even missed my appointment with my social worker >.<

On a more positive note, I might level up on WK in around 1-2 days :smiley:

I keep forgetting to write on my log :sweat_smile:
I leveled up yesterday! :sparkling_heart:

I have been mostly resting, yesterday I watched ハウルの動く城 and 魔女の宅急便.
It felt rewarding to get to understand some words and sentences once in a while!

Tomorrow I start my 3-weeks Code&Data training course.

:white_check_mark: WK reviews
:white_check_mark: WK lessons
:white_check_mark: 1 mimo chapter (SQL)
:white_check_mark: Optimizing my LinkedIn profile
:white_check_mark: Attending classes

Today’s teacher was boring, he taught us how to optimize our Gmail account and use of the Microsoft Office suite.

But I’m pretty excited because starting tomorrow, we’ll finally have Data and Code classes.
Of course it’ll be aimed at total beginners so I won’t learn a lot, but it feels really good to study with pairs once in a while. I had been feeling a bit lonely lately.

Also our LinkedIn teacher was great, she was very ADHDy with a HUGE special interest/hyperfixation on LinkedIn, SEO and communication.

She basically SLANDERED my LinkedIn page but she taught us so much! I can’t wait to have classes with her again.

Finally on weekend :partying_face:

Today we had an Algorithmy class in the morning, and an English class in the afternoon
I really enjoyed the first class, but the second one was aimed at beginners, so I turned off the sound and did some kata on CodeWars.
Then I fell asleep lol

Oh and my bf showed me how to solve equations with two unknowns, so I solved some tonight, it was pretty fun. I have a trauma with math due to a middle school teacher bully, but thanks to my bf I’m slowly overcoming it :face_holding_back_tears:

I feel quite frustrated to not have the energy and time to study more Japanese, especially with Genki.
But unfortunately my career move must come first.

Spent most of my day resting, I needed that after a full week of classes.

Also did some math and got my first Enlightened :partying_face:

Oh and I applied to the OpenClassrooms developer course. Tomorrow I’ll try to do their mandatory technical test.

🩷 LEVEL UP POST 🩷

Almost one week without logging omg!
Time sure flies.
I did my WK reviews everyday except yesterday, but gave up a little on Anki. I know it‘s really amazing it‘s free, but I really don‘t like their UI >.<

Passed the technical test for the Web developper OpenClassroom class easily (very basic test) :blue_heart:
They accepted my application, so I will start OpenClassroom classes on October 16th!

I’m also coding some personal projects for my portfolio!
Maybe I’ll show it here when I’ve made some progress.

I finally got Mimo’s SQL certfication :smiley:

It’s the final week of the women only coding program.
I’ll miss my algorithmy teacher so much :pleading_face:

Lots of news lessons on WK but I’m catching up little as little.

I’m hesitating about which framework I should learn first. Angular seems very demanded but hard to master, and React way easier but was less on demand too. Or maybe some CSS framework like TailWind? Lots of people tell me to avoid Bootstrap like a plague.

I think I am going a little overboard.
Have been hyperfixating for 2 days on a tester certification (ISTQB, Foundation level 4.0).

Getting it would be a nice bonus on my CV and it would only take a few weeks to get it, but that’s really not the priority.
I should be coding some projects and doing lots of kata on CodeWars.

But the thing is, my weird ADHD brain disagrees and wants me to study the syllabus of that certification non stop. And of course I’ve been studying nonstop for 4 hours straight without even a toilet break and forgetting to drink water.

Hopefully this annoying hyperfocus dies soon.
Tomorrow I won’t attend classes and I’ll force myself to only code and tidy up my flat.
And take some breaks.
I need to start treating myself more gently. I am allowed to rest and enjoy a good movie or a little walk.

On a more positive note, I succeeded to do lots of administrative tasks today! Activated my new CB, payed a debt, set an appointment with my OC career counsellor, send vet invoices to my pet insurance…

I feel very proud of myself.

Fortunately I was able to control my hyperfocus on the ISTBQ the next day. I haven‘t studied for that certification since then.

I have been coding static webpages and learning the basics of Git and GitHub.
Also trying to take up my kata routine on CodeWars again.

I started to take a new ADHD medication today, hopefully I will be able to tolerate it in the medium and long term. :blush:

WK is getting a little harder, I mixed up a few times 夫 (husband), 未 (not yet) and 末 (end)

:woman_teacher: First appointment with my OC mentor.
She was a walking green flag, I am so lucky.
Sweet, patient, honest, involved, competent.

:sparkling_heart: Now I just have to NOT crush on her.
Ugh, why am I such a lesbian disaster. :weary:

:pill: I reacted better to the treatment today, the side effets were way less powerful.
But I slept pretty bad unsurprisingly, thank you metylphenydate for ruining my sleep schedule.

:dart: Tomorrow my goals are:

  • to not miss my appointment with my psychiatrist
  • to finish the Git & Github chapter

:arrow_up: In think I will level up in around 4-5 days. :blush:
Really miss studying japanese grammar, I wish I had more free time.

:white_check_mark: I finished the Git/GitHub course.
Today I’ll practice Git commands on learngitbranching.js.org

I’ll also try to finish the “Let‘s set up your front-end environnement” course.

:tada:. Passed my first OC oral examination yesterday with flying colors. Seven more to go and I’ll graduate.

I think I will level up in around two days :fire:

I confused 矢 (arrow) and 失 (fault).
Also, why are there two kanji for reason, 由 and 理? :confounded:

:mushroom: レベルアップ :mushroom:

Leveled up right before going to bed.
Only 7 lessons remaining, that’s a relief.
Usually when I level up I suddenly have around 100 new lessons to deal with :laughing:

EDIT : I actualized the page, now I have 82 lessons waiting for me :sob::sob::sob:

Finally subscribed to Bunpro.
The free trial month had expired quite a while ago, so I have lots of reviews to do.

Since I just leveled up on WK, I also have +120 apprentice elements and 57 new lessons.

I really wasn‘t the best timing to get back on track on Bunpro :person_facepalming::person_facepalming::person_facepalming:

(but it feels a little rewarding to finally realize that “bun” in bunpro stands for 文 )

🇯🇵 日本語 🇯🇵

Finally went under 100 apprentice elements.

Bunpro is hardcore, I have lots of reviews to do, and obviously I forgot lots of things.
I’m also using it to learn vocabulary, since I unfortunately failed repeatedly to get into Anki.

So far JLPT5 vocabulary is like 90% of カタカナ words, quite boring.

💻 コンピューター 💻

Currently doing the OC HTML5 and CSS3 course.

HTML and CSS are very easy so far, but managing branches, committing etc. with Git Bash is more challenging. I can feel this course is really helping me to improve in that aspect.
