Actually I was very busy and forgot to post.

Played some more Abyss of the Sacrifice and unlocked the second bad ending this ending was way different from the other one. One character survived and was send back in time to the beginning. One of the mysteries was solved why one of the characters was covered in blood in the beginning of the game. I stopped playing it for now and started playing another game アサツグトリ.

To get better at reading I decided to read one article in a japanese news paper every day from now on.

Day 27: Did a little bit of book club reading (finished CCS for this week and read a bit of Neverland). Also, picked up わたしの幸せな結婚 anew. Back when I tried it for the first time, it was too challenging, but now it’s not hard at all. Makes me happy because my progress is palpable hehe~ also because I can finally start using a topic I opened last year for it… :face_with_peeking_eye:

I honestly am so impressed with my learning progress and can’t wait to be able to experience it with more literary content like full length books~ I’m already able to read them, but it does take a quite a bit of effort. I’m trusting the process, though, because it worked really well with manga so far~

You’re really sweet, thank you hehe. Big hugs.

:question: Title Type Natively Progress
:cat: 元カレの猫を、預かりまして。 novel 20? :arrow_forward: 50% → 55%
:bread: 甘々と稲妻 6 manga 23 :arrow_forward: 0 → 42%
:plate_with_cutlery: ダンジョン飯 14巻 manga 30 :pause_button: 20%
:judge: 逆転裁判1 game ??? :pause_button: 3/5 cases
  • More 元カレの猫。Feeling a bit better about it after plugging a few sentences here and there into DeepL - even just one or two can really help overall comprehension and what to look up and what I’m missing etc. Still probably a bit too difficult for me right now but I’m confident I’ll at least be able to finish it, and frankly I like it enough I think I’ll reread it one day too.
  • A bit of 甘々と稲妻 6。Really happy this series is definitely easy enough for me to just kind of chill my way through at a decent pace.

There’s something with my energy lately - either low, unfocused or restless - which makes it hard to start and keep reading. Interesting. I’ve heard lack of sun now in the winter half of the year can affect energy levels and increase the amount needed for sleep. And I’m pretty sleepy now at 21:00 since an hour ago tbh, so I think it’s time for good night :zzz:

I read an article in Asahi Shinbun about an traffic accident, where five woman were injured.

After that I started reading the next short story in 5分で読める胸キュンなラストの物語 around 13 pages.

Spoiler

It is about a man and woman having an affair. His girlfriend noticed it and secretly took pictures as proof. Thanks to some coincidence all three got stuck in an elevator for around two hours. His girlfriend let the cat out of the back and reveals that she knows about the affair. Both woman want the guy to decide, who of them he wants to be together with. Natsuha here already solved that problem.
both-why

VNs and VNs and more VNs… I love this medium! Today I read a little of The Expression Amrilato and a little of Everlasting Flowers. Everlasting Flowers is my favorite right now. It’s beautiful! But The Expression Amrilato is fun too. Seeing language barriers from “the other side”, where a Japanese girl is feeling lost in a world where everyone speaks Esperanto, is so different from everything I have read before, and still so relateable. Love it!

Today. I finished another SR series (瞑想) and started a new one (夏). The final episode of 瞑想 was much longer than the usual episode length so I’ll skip my SR Nutshell Grammar episode for today. I feel I’m gaining a degree of fluency with my reading of the easier SR stories
