#accountablilty

Become More Accountable Accountability is the responsibility that you assume for your actions, decisions, and performance. It involves being answerable for the consequences of your actions and fulfilling commitments or obligations. In various contexts, such as personal relationships, work environments, or governance, accountability ensures transparency, trustworthiness, and integrity. It’s…

What I am already doing to keep my shit up:

WaniKani: all day everyday for Kanji reading/typing/vocab (Level 21-22)

Anki:Tobira Decks + Core2000 deck almost everyday for vocab retention

Japanese Videos on YouTube: of anything and everything, I’m trying to stick with videos without any English if possible both educational and non-educational. Will make post about frequented channels at some point.

Japanese music: [need to log hours] Fun listening practice (current obsession PP)

BunPro: almost everyday for grammar retention (Up to: Tobira ch. 6)

Conversation Partners: twice a week for one hour/each

Teaching Beginning Japanese: 2-3 times a week for 30 mins- 1.5 hrs

review basic grammar rules/vocab on a constant basis

make it comprehensible to new learners

if I can teach it I’ve acquired it myself

What I need do be better at doing:

New Vocabulary: I need to write down new words I find in the wild when immersing in native material and make it into Anki cards.

Memorizing lyrics to songs: So that I not just mumbling along.

Understanding lyrics to songs: So I know wtf I’m singing.

Reading novels/manga: I don’t read nearly enough Japanese on a regular basis. I’m more of a binge reader since it helps put me to sleep. I can only concentrate on novels/books when it’s dead quiet, so this is almost always done at night before bed.

Interpersonal-writing: Same as reading. I don’t have any Japanese friends that I text with on a regular basis. I know it would make presentational writing a lot easier if I did it more often.

Goals for next week: read a full volume of manga (idk what yet)

Reading: read one full volume of a manga I have bought (not just skimming to the end when my attention span fizzes out)

Vocab: record all new words and turn them into an Anki Deck

Writing: summarize what I read in Japanese

Speaking: record myself summarizing it (off script)

Still smaller than normal, but what are you going to do?

Note To Jimmy Butler: “Come To Philly!”

Are the Sixers Better with Butler?

Are we better with Butler? We better be! Butler is a gritty, in no ways pretty, in your face, non-commonplace kind of player. Butler is gutsy and garish, impudent and intolerant, and he’s not coming to Philly to play.  Butler is coming to ball. Butler in a word, is a bad butt (we don’t use French here), Butler is all about getting the “W” so he doesn’t like to…

Make Kavanaugh Accountable!

Now, nobody’s pants are coming off here although I think that might be a little easier. I’m talking about getting bare naked with my emotions, feelings, and thoughts. Being raw and unguarded with my emotions and opinions and openly discussing my experiences. While this isn’t going to be easy, I plan to try my best and to hold myself accountable for continuing to update this account. The idea of being so open with my thoughts and emotions scare me so much that I almost didn’t start and I already want to shut my laptop and walk away, but I’m not going to. I’m going to face my fear of sharing my opinions and feelings and speak out. I’m going to find my voice and turn the volume up so high that I will be heard. it’s time. 

No More “Blame” ... Make People Accountable For The Effects on Others of Their Decisions!

“Blame” is always on the wrong person!

Okay Monday is here,  The start of all things new right?

Or at least the start of the week.  

I am so happy with my run on Saturday,  I didn't realize I could keep it under 10 min.  My goal is to now keep the pace for 10+miles here is hoping!

I have noticed that my weight hasn't really changed in a few months.  It is slowly creeping up but not that bad.  Until last week I stepped on our old scale and I am positive is said ouch!   With that said I am realizing I need to get control of my weight and have it start to creep down.  I would love to be well  below 200 again,   or at least on the other side of it. 

So on Saturday i bought this scale, it is way cool.  Every time I weigh myself it sends the weight to a website so it can graph my gains and hopefully losses.  All in all it is helping me stay accountable and motivated to loose

So this weeks weight goals are:

 Using weight watcher points plus track my intakes.
