๐Ÿ“š๐Ÿ“š Read every day challenge - Winter 2023 โ˜ƒโ„

In Germany, we take relaxing breaks between the actual sessions in the hot and/or wet places, and the book is for these breaks :sweat_smile:
I am not allowed to use my phone at all (because it has a camera) so that means paper book and no dictionary lookups, which only works with very very few of the books I want to read. Luckily the cats book is one of them. (which is amazing in its own right for me, on top of that :smiley:)

BU$TAFELLOWS :moneybag:
Short story and 1 chapter of a novel in English :books:

Today was a bit meh. Iโ€™m paying my monthly lady tax. The English reading I did, didnโ€™t engage me terribly much (otherwise I wouldnโ€™t have read just one chapter), but I wasnโ€™t sure anything could really engage me today.

Hormones suck sometimesโ€ฆ

But at least I could get into B$. I really wanted to finish chapter 4, and I did! Iโ€™m not planing to jump into the Limbo route and finish it really quickly, instead I plan to spend the next week unlocking all other routes and join the read along again with the club for Shuu. Andโ€ฆ I look forward to that, maybe, a bit more than I should. :speak_no_evil:

Day 59
I read more of Little Busters End of Refrain. Somehow I already adapted to the difficulty of the manga. Anyway the manga is awesome I pretty much like all the characters. I should probably pick up the visual novel. Now Iโ€™m a little bit sad that the challenge is already over but I will of course continue to read every day.

Hello!

Of course! :blush: As far as I am concerned, feel free to send any messages/thoughts etc, I usually check WaniKani forums when I have spare time from work or studying, so I will try to reply as soon as possible :slightly_smiling_face:

Oh, ok. I donโ€™t know how saunas work :joy: I thought you just sat in them and then got out and left entirely. Thatโ€™s oddly reassuring to hear that people take breaks instead.

Just dropping a very simple summary here of the conclusion of my very first read every day challenge winter edition!

I was pretty happy with my progress in January with 29 out of 31 days, but unfortunately I lagged behind in February getting caught up with real life resulting in only 16 out of 28 days read. And that makes 76% of January and February. If I were still in school thatโ€™s barely passing. Such a shameโ€ฆ See home post here.

I only finished one series during this challenge which is Konaโ€™s Big Adventure on Satorireader. I got halfway through Teasing master-Takagi-san Volume 1 and Iโ€™m currently reading Ruri Dragon Volume 1 with the ABBC. I will be continuing with the ABBC during this off month and maybe read more of NHK Easy News. I will likely not be update every day here though and will just be using my study log to track my reading.

It was such a pleasure to join this challenge even though I wasnโ€™t able to fully commit 100%! I am so impressed by everyone in this challenge and hope I can have as much diligence as you guys! Also loved seeing the summary charts by @omk3 and @NicoleIsEnough (you changed your username!). So prettyyyy!

I hope I can partake in the next challenge with everyone if real life doesnโ€™t get in the way! :stuck_out_tongue:

Some more Steins;Gate today! I got a bit derailed by other things so not as much reading as I wouldโ€™ve liked but itโ€™s all progress :man_shrugging:

Oh still just chapter one, Iโ€™ve been going pretty slowly between fighting all the science and dedicating time to BU$TAFELLOWS and whatever else haha. Iโ€™m very curious to see where it goes though :eyes:

Yeah, I mean in reality you just need to know the terms, you donโ€™t have to really understand per se. Its like watching or reading anything SF in your native tongue, the technojargon is to sell you on the world building mostly.

I love Steins;Gate, do you guys think one can play it around level 30? Besides the techno jargon, can one learn words from context (without all the mining)?

Now, secrets of co-MC. Well, I knew the characters in advance.

Words of the day
  • ใฎใฃใ—ใฎใฃใ— = (on-mim) walking heavily = ใฎใ—ใฎใ—
  • ใŠใฎใšใจ = naturally; in due course; of its own accord = ่‡ช(ใŠใฎ)ใšใจ
  • ็”ณ(ใ‚‚ใ†)ใ—ๅ‡บ(ใง) = a proposal; suggestion. Apparently, ๆๆกˆ(ใฆใ„ใ‚ใ‚“) is nearly, but listed separately.
  • ๆœ‰(ใ‚)ใ‚Šไฝ“(ใฆใ„)ใซ = frankly
  • ้€™ใ€…(ใปใ†ใปใ†)ใฎไฝ“(ใฆใ„) = escaping in shame, panic = ้€™้€™(ใปใ†ใปใ†)ใฎไฝ“(ใฆใ„). Has Furigana. The Kanji from ้€™(ใฏ)ใ† (= to crawl).
  • ๅฝนๅพ—(ใ‚„ใใจใ) = privilege benefits; perks
  • ้€—็•™(ใจใ†ใ‚Šใ‚…ใ†) = staying at; sojourn. Has Furigana.
  • ๆต…่‘ฑ่‰ฒ(ใ‚ใ•ใŽใ„ใ‚) = pale green color, like pale color of a ่‘ฑ(ใญใŽ) (= spring onion). No Furigana. Sounds like ๆต…(ใ‚ใ•)ใ„ + ้ป„่‰ฒ(ใใ„ใ‚)?
  • ไฝฟ็ฏ€(ใ—ใ›ใค) = envoy; ambassador of a country
  • ่ฉฆ็€(ใ—ใกใ‚ƒใ) = trying on clothes
  • ่ซฆๅฟต(ใฆใ„ใญใ‚“) = understanding and acceptance. First Kanji from ่ซฆ(ใ‚ใใ‚‰)ใ‚ใ‚‹.

  • ๅซŒๆ‚ช(ใ‘ใ‚“ใŠ) = disgust
  • ่”‘(ใชใ„ใŒใ—)ใ‚ใซใ™ใ‚‹ = to make light of; to ignore, with disrespect. Has Furigana. The Kanji is from ่ปฝ่”‘(ใ‘ใ„ในใค). Another single Kanji word I think I have seen is ่”‘(ใ•ใ’ใ™)ใ‚€.
  • ่™ฑๆฝฐ(ใ—ใ‚‰ใฟใคใถ)ใ— = thorough searching. Has Furigana. Literally, indeed, crushing every single lice.
  • ๅ››่‹ฆๅ…ซ่‹ฆ(ใ—ใใฏใฃใ) = being in dire distress
  • ้ ญ(ใ“ใ†ใน)ใ‚’ๅ›ž(ใ‚ใ)ใ‚‰ใ™ = to turn oneโ€™s head over the shoulder. First half has Furigana, but not the verb (and I couldnโ€™t guess, actually simply couldnโ€™t recall).

The word ่”ฆ(ใคใŸ) = ivy has appeared so many times, surely it will stick soon, right?

Lots of interesting words.

  • ๆณฅๆฟ˜(ใฌใ‹ใ‚‹)ใ‚€ = to be muddy (latter kanji is new to me :eyes: )
  • ไพ(ใฏใน)ใ‚‹ = to serve
  • ่”“ๅปถ(ใฏใณใ“)ใ‚‹ = to become overgrown
  • ้œฐ(ใ‚ใ‚‰ใ‚Œ) = hail esp. <5 mm. (Similar in shape to some other weather kanji Iโ€™ve been looking at recently: ้œง(ใใ‚Š)ใ€้„(ใ‚‚ใ‚„)ใ€้œž(ใ‹ใ™ใฟ))
  • ็ฟ…(ใฏใญ) = (insect) wing. (Didnโ€™t know that had its own kanji)
  • ๆตชๆ›ฒ(ใ‚ใ†ใใ‚‡ใ) = recitation of stories accompanied by shamisen (@Zakarius, it you! :smiley: )

BU$TAFELLOWS :moneybag:

Spent a lot of time on B$ today. I went through and unlocked all the routes, so I can start them whenever. So now Iโ€™m caught up. Iโ€™m not planing to try and read all of Limboโ€™s route over the next week.

Instead, Iโ€™ll read the weekly amount of Orange tomorrow and then get back into Loopers I think. Canโ€™t let my reading partner get ahead of me. Hehe. xD Iโ€™m already ahead on Komi-san, so will see if she gets some space too, or if Iโ€™ll just wait until the club catches back up with me. I think Iโ€™ve read about half the chapters, so will take a couple of weeks, maybe?

Feels good to be caught up with all my book clubs, even if it is because I have skipped a part of B$ temporarily. :woman_shrugging:
