would anyone be interested in joining a book club on the fable app? It would be one book a month and would be alternating fiction and non-fiction. I was thinking I’ll put out a poll of options each month for the next read and we’ll go with whichever has the highest votes

hi. i got sick. still recovering. i feel absolutely terrible. and not just because of my physical condition...i've let my mental health slide despite my awareness of the warning signs, and this illness is just the icing on the cake.

i need to learn to trust myself. know when to listen to myself and when to listen to others and know who to listen to bc if there's one thing i don't lack, it's outside sources of information. ground myself and focus on what is in my control so i don't feel like i'm going crazy and internalizing blame/negativity every time smth bad happens.

everything is temporary, so there is hope. we're just gonna take it day by day, focusing on the present every time and not on how much there is left to do and how many stressors i have left to manage after this one. i'm sorry if this post is kind of all over the place, i'm trying to sort things out with a foggy brain. (i'm so annoyed that i have to sleep for more than half the day to feel normal rn. oh well, at least i'm getting better.) 🤧

on a better note, i got my grade back for the philosophy assignment and i did well 🙂

SMART goals for today:

morning self-care routine ✅

finish half of psyc ch from last week ✅ (i wish their ch sizes and numbers for each week were consistent. last week we had to do 4 ch, and this second ch is the size of 2 regular ch! and this week, the amount of stuff to cover is the same. just lucky it's interesting rn bc the content is really relevant to my personal life...if i could just focus!!)

skincare ✅

night routine ✅

March cover page 🦭

This month's theme was 'Back to Childhood'.

It'll feature things I liked as a child, mostly cute stuff and colour bombs 🌈

[wecandoit]

i love you indigenous languages i love you endangered languages i love you revived languages i love you

[wecandoit]

getting over my "intermediate slump" in 3 languages 🇰🇷🇨🇳🇯🇵

i've barely reached intermediate level in two of my target languages, yet i'm already slumping so hard 🙈 and the worst part is, because Japanese is so similar to Korean and Chinese, i'm getting bored when i'm barely even N5 yet 😅 so starting today, i want to take inspiration from this article to get over my slump and find that excitement and joy in learning again!

✍️ target language output practice yay

🇰🇷 most days i'm keeping my diary in Korean lately! i can even write bad(?) poetry in Korean (no, i will not elaborate 🙈)

🇯🇵 Kanji + Hiragana writing practice for the days of the week + keyboarding practice writing a short journal entry!

🎧 target language input binge let's gooo

🇰🇷 reminding myself why i can't watch Hello, Counselor 😡 i just get so mad at these entitled, rude, small-minded men (적어도 승관씨는 이해... 아이돌입니다 또는 아니야, 그는도 화나했어요 at least Seungkwan understands... idol or not, he's angry too 🥺)

🇰🇷 귀여운 귤은 인터뷰를 있어요 (cute tangerine does an interview), 난 봤어 그럼요 (i watched it of course)

🇰🇷 Seventeen Artist-Made Season 2 (the upper-middle child line, lol)

🎯 target language drills

🇯🇵 3 lessons + unit exam

🇨🇳 4 lessons

💌: besides low-key neglecting to do more meaningful study in Chinese, i think i did pretty well! there's only so much time in one day after all. the important thing is i feel motivated to continue tomorrow ☺️

[wecandoit]

life lately // enjoying myself so hard it's getting dangerous 🤭

in this issue 🔍: brain-rot target language input 🇯🇵🇨🇳🇰🇷 & if icarus was a workaholic 👩‍💻✍️🍝

"language learning" but it's just brain-rot 🧠

🇯🇵 Shogun (9/10) — objectively a really good show, but a lot of death and triggering topics for me personally 🥺

🇯🇵 Spy x Family (5/10) — i can only watch one episode at a time now because the plot is getting increasingly ridiculous, please don't be mad at me if you're a fan 😅

🇨🇳 When I Fly Towards You (6/10) — it's silly, but it's also just what you expect from kids of the characters' ages and at times it does tickle that part of my brain that likes candy (i still like Exclusive Fairytale better though, 对不起 张陆让)

🇯🇵 Petrichor 花鋏 キョウ (10/10) — my new favorite album!! ☺️ even @pianistbynight likes this one and she usually prefers classical music!

🇰🇷 Seventeen on Shuffle (10/10) — my usual suspects never miss 😌

too close to the sun but finally looking in the mirror ☀️🪞

i gave myself a headache from working too much in poor physical conditions again 😭 i didn't notice until the end of the day because i was on a roll at work and it's rare when that happens, so in a messed up way, i feel it was worth it?? i bought a new chair and rearranged my desk setup a little to be more ergonomic, but that only does so much when i have one good night of sleep a week 🙃

my poor sleep is low-key my own fault though since i write and binge cinema therapy videos late into the night because i love doing those things so much that my brain won't shut up until i do them 😛

in other news, i made my favorite pasta recipe!! 😋 but i burned myself and didn't notice until i started washing the dishes in hot water ♨️ wow, me enjoying myself so much i don't notice i'm hurting myself is a real theme here... 🙈 something to work out in detail in my diary some time 🤔

💌: how's life been treating you lately? 💐

bonus: @pianistbynight tagged me in this fun picrew game (how you look now vs when you were younger) and it made me miss my good eyesight 🥲 everyone, take good care of your eyes by taking lots of outdoor breaks (with UV protection!!) 👀

💞: @shoosiopao @tea-tuesday @tokidokitokyo @ink-stained-clouds @ilonar0 @cravingstudyvalidation @getbreaded @nelyastudies @roxysbbg @cinammon-buns and anyone else who made it to the bottom of this post 😉
