Plant Tales, a game about collecting and selling house plants and flowers.

Such a cute idea. Can't wait to see how it will evolve.

That Made in Switzerland song was alright but I still prefer the 12 Points song from 2014 Eurovision

Spin the wheel to find out which

It takes 2 to get from 8 to 10 and 7 - 2 = 5, therefore 8 + 2 + 5 = 15

Then 2 + 4 + 1 = 7

75.

I am reading scholarly works about Jane Austen and having hearteyes about obscure details in the Pemberley chapters of P&P that indicate Mr. Darcy’s sustainable land management praxis.

An appreciation post for all the coffees & teas I’ve lovingly consumed this year. There is something so healing about taking a small moment to enjoy a warm drink, especially when it feels like a hug in a mug. ☕️🤍

2025.1 Goals

Since I can't trust Tumblr not to eat this blog too (yes, I'm still bitter about it), this year I wrote my long list of goals somewhere else and will post just the short version on here.

The theme for this year will be "I might as well try". I have big ambitions, but always try to moderate myself because what if I exhaust myself, what if I can't do everything. But the other day I stumbled upon this video, The Wonyoung Mindset and the message is basically: "yes, working towards your goals is hard, but isn't it even harder not reach your goals at the end of the day? Might as well try hard." Which to me makes sense. Also, I'm old enough to know how much I can take on my plate so it will be fine.

So this year I'm maximizing my goals! I'll go for it and get it!

Write a novel and publish it on Amazon. Even if it's terrible and a total flop, who cares. Let's start my author career!

Complete my writing challenge to show to myself how committed I am to writing

Graduate cum laude in July from my master's! + find a job

Do yoga every day

Have 10k on my savings account at the end of the year (level impossible unless the novel becomes a smashing success)

Visit my friend D in her home country

Be ready to start preparing for TOPIK II level 5 by the end of the year.

Pass a Goethe-Zertifikat B1 or B2 during the second half of the year

Read 5 books from my physical TBR list so I can give them away and make some space in my library

Watch 12 Italian films (1/12) cause how is it possible that I know nothing about my own country's pop culture?

By the end of the year, I will be able to do at least 10 classic push ups. Right now I can barely do 10 wall pushups to it's a long road but I will make it!!!!

I've already set up a habit tracker to help me with all this. I'm sure the enthusiasm will vanish soon, so I plan on checking in every month and re-evaluating my goals every quarter. Hopefully I'll reach some of them sooner than expected and be able to add more (for example, it wouldn't be a bad idea to publish more than one novel).

First goal of the year reached! I just finished watching all 14 available Korean Short Stories (Intermediate) by 몰힙한국어 Immersion in Korean.

I really like the format (the same short story is repeated in 3 different ways or povs) and it included some useful idiomatic expressions, so I think I will keep following the series.

But now it's time to move up one level! Since my goal for this first quarter of the year is to start (and finish) listening to Choi Susu's intermediate podcast, starting tomorrow I will listen to 10 min a day of her Stardew Valley series. The playlist is currently around 120 min long, so I should be done by the 25th but I'll give myself until the end of January to account for unexpected delays :)

I've been watching so many language learning podcasts for German and Korean this last week that YouTube is now recommending English podcasts too.
