I started my Japanese journey in college but I didn’t really take it as seriously as I wish I would have. It wasn’t my major (or my career path), and I didn’t really look much into resources (like WaniKani) or even things like the JLPT until way after I graduated.
I started getting back into studying a year ago or so, and I go through phases of high and low motivation. I’m starting this study log to keep myself focused. My goal: passing JLPT N3 in December 2025!
Daily Goals
- Complete WaniKani reviews
- Complete reviews for my custom Anki deck
- At least 1 page of reading (or re-reading) any material

Long Term Goals
- Pass N3 of course!
- I’d like to improve my vocabulary more. I don’t have a hard time understanding usually, but trying to chat about more complex topics than my favorite food has me sweating on Italki.
- I’d really like to engage with music/movies/TV more, but I’m missing a lot of slang and shortened casual speech skills, I’d love to work on that!
Right now, I’m reading 時をかける少女 and having a really great time. I’m learning a lot of really useful words!
Thank you and good luck to everyone on their learning journey!
