14th november :full_moon:

finished the n1 questions book, which was actually pretty helpful at getting an overview of where i’m at (at least for kanji, vocab and grammar). i’ve reached the science-y infodump part of steins;gate so progress is slow. also some of this really hasn’t aged well huh.

Work related? Life related?

I’ve been quite tired recently. Found out I had borderline hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid). I started medication about 2 months ago.

I don’t think it’s made any difference whatsoever :woman_facepalming:

I think it’s anemia + lack of sleep. Haven’t been taking supplements for a few weeks. And I keep waking up in the middle of the night for no apparent reason with trouble falling back to sleep again. Slept well last night tho. Had the feeling I was going to miss my alarm, but at the same time I was like, meh I can’t trust that feeling. It went fine.

Recently, I’ve also had more and more the feeling of being in an elevator starting on its way down. Random dizziness for 1-2 sec.

Mysterious :eyes: Maybe the dosage isn’t right? Or must be something else.

Read two volumes of 血の轍. This story should be the poster definition of “things can always get worse”.
I’ve got around 3-4 volumes remaining, I’m going to take a break from this author for a while after that lol
I will resume reading rental big brother after that and then maybe go back to LN or actual novels…
I have a sort of mini Natively objective of reading something for each difficulty level, so I will look for something that’s just slightly more difficult and build up from there

Read quite a bit. The previous book series I was reading must have had super short books. This feels more like proper book again with normal density. Not like fast-food.

新完全マスター・読解・N1: 132 → 158 pages, 2h34m

There was an extract from Haruki Murakami, it was refreshing to read a novel instead of an essay for a change.

One text was very hard for me, even though most of the text are ok =/

新完全マスター・文法・N1: 2h22m

Slowly getting through the unknown, and reading and re-reading past chapters.
