I’ve very grateful to @Marifly for starting this thread, and to everyone posting their progress and encouraging folks along the way. Some months the need to report here was really helping me to get my motivation back.
I haven’t been here since October, but I’ve been studying everyday! Realistically it’s impossible for me to make it to level 60 by May 22, and at my current pace it’s unlikely I’ll make it to the 2nd observation deck either. I’ll try to make it as high as possible though! I’m keeping my goal at 60 because that’s my ultimate goal anyway. Now let’s see if I remember to come back here again before level 40 lol.
life is messy at the moment so i doubt i will hit my goal (it was a hefty goal in the first place), but i kind of like taking it low and slow. i feel like if i stress too much about it, it’ll only discourage me from keeping at it
@sansarret Congratulations. I cannot agree more. I hope that @Marifly makes it back sometime, and just knows that they helped me stay on track with my goals, and I’m very grateful.
@Brasa Welcome back! When in doubt slow and steady. It’s taken me 1.5 to get to this point, but it’s better than not at all, and it’s better than going quicker but forgetting more things as well, imho.
Just like level 35, I took 36 a bit slower and my review levels are reducing at a nice rate as I get through the burns and enlightened items - definitely going to hit my target of level 40 by May, so not feeling any hurry here and going to continue at this pace so I don’t have an avalanche of reviews immediately in the 40s.
Outside of Kanji I’ve been participating in the Winter 2022 Read Every Day Challenge and I’ve been doing a lot better than I expected!
Last 10 levels are more like hell than reality. Getting really really slow in this black hole and lurking at the last 5 levels. Surely I’ll create a post later, it’s 2 am here anyway. Take my time to chill and clear remaining lessons
