We had our Halloween party today in the office and the highlight of it was the pets that my colleagues brought, not the kids It was also a busy day with multiple meetings that extended during the party itself, so I wasn’t able to join the program and all lmao.

Wow this day is good. I got all boxes checked except for grammar.
- WaniKani reviews in the morning and evening
- Did around 25 lessons today, however, it feels like I’m struggling for this round. Totally not because of these kanjis

- Finished week # 4 of CCS. whew! I was surprised to see the vocabs 表 and 紙 and recognizing them. What’s more interesting to see was the ほんの表紙 which took a couple braincells to decipher since it uses the onyomi readings lol I also recognized 風 and 自身 which I recognized from 私自身.

I suppose this week I have more weekly goals ticked off which is a win. I need to adjust the Guru of radicals and kanji goals to next week since I still need to review it in 1day and some hrs.
For listening, I was able to finish both S1 and S2 of Bungo Stray Dogs and I’m quite enjoying the passive listening. For reading, I was also able to finish Week #4. I can already see some newly learned vocabs + kanji in the last set of pages I read so I feel a bit more motivated to do readings.
Also, this time I feel like I’m on track again with full speeding WK until 20s.

I was also almost distracted for today and I forgot a lot of vocabs that were supposed to go enlighten. So I stopped the lessons for today and review those vocabs for now.

I finally encountered this in a lesson which helped me understand the transitive vs intransitive verbs
Verbs ending in okurigana that rhyme with ある tend to be intransitive like this. You can remember this because if something is ある, it’s just there, existing, not acting on anything else. That’s why verbs that sound like it are often intransitive too!

Yeah, then verbs ending す are usually transitive, and verbs ending える are usually partnered with an ある or す counterpart.

You’re heaven-sent. Thank you senpai!

This week’s an improvement since I was able to finish Week #5 of CCS ABBC before the week ends and I was able to start on Week #6. The only thing was I wasn’t able to consistently watch Cure Dolly episodes and couldn’t finish vocab of Level 10 within the week.

Honestly, this is not going to be a good week for some Japanese studies outside of WaniKani. This would probably go on until early next week so I’ll just focus on WK for now and not get stressed about not catching up with other lessons. I’ll probably do that this coming weekend.
