It would be amazing if I could finally finish this manga by the end of May, but it probably won’t happen. I’ll try my best though.

Aah, I don’t understand to what extend Felix suspects Monica, and it is killing me. I wonder in what book he discovers her identity. Now is probably too early for that long-term wise. A lot of funny moments in these chapter.

- Two chapters of 四ツ子. Think I might just be doing this for the foreseeable - think I’m approaching burnout again, so scaling back
☆5月15日☆
I lied. I actually started three fics. But I did finish one of them today, so… it’s slightly balanced out. Kind of.
Read:
・19 pages of 不機嫌な青春, starting the third story and leaving off on pg 156
Please stay good… I’m invested.
Played:
・聖剣伝説3 Trials of Mana (06:49⇒08:03)
I don’t know when ch 2 started, but I’m on it. I forgot at what level you can make your first class change though, so I’m not sure how close I am to that. For that matter, I don’t even know if it’s automatic or if you need a special item or to talk to someone to do it…
some vocab of note
及び腰 (およびごし) [n] indecisive attitude; timidity; lack of nerve
おくびにもださず [expression, adv.] without showing any sign of; without giving the slightest indication of; without saying anything of; without breathing a word of

Read a little ahead in 六人 just so I can reduce tomorrow’s reading load for hopefully finishing it.
Have been thinking about my reading recently. I think I need to make sure I usually have a more challenging book going on, because it feels like I’m not always challenging myself enough. A mix between easy and hard is probably good.
Also decided I might as well at least try a trashy LN for the first time, so went with 時々ロシア語 because the anime wasn’t so terrible, and it looks bingeable. It is indeed. The language is a bit hard sometimes but it’s quite quick at the same time. Will probably treat this as my “doze off to in bed” book. Also also started the next S&M book because it’s similarly nice to blow through relatively quickly, even if it’s got some more technical vocab.
In the opposite vein, and with challenging books, I’m going to try and either start こころ or 雪国 soon. Haven’t decided which yet.

Back at home, time for real updates again. Also I saw yesterday that the new Volume of 花野井君と恋の病 is out now and of course I had to buy it. Can’t really believe that it really has been 17 Volumes already, wonder if the story is going to finish soon. Sometimes it’s really nice to just buy and enjoy some guilty pleasures while knowing it’s basically study time ![]()

Finished a chapter, and that makes half of a book. Poor Monica, I hope she finds out who destroyed her tea and make them pay for that!

- Another two chapters of 四ツ子. I don’t really have the stamina or attention time for two chapters at once but I can do one in the morning and one in the evening easily enough…
- Relaxing with a bit of SWAG (She Wasn’t A Guy) v3 since the physical has been sitting on my shelf for ages and I hadn’t cracked it open, which is, considering the truly ridiculous price I paid for it, a crime
