DAY 1

19 DAYS TILL MY EXAMS START

Today I studied for about 4 hours I’m working through my bio module. I finished the endocrinology topic, it was super interesting but I now have a deep fear of developing diabetes. No more sweet treats for me :(

This will be my life for the next three months. I am locked in. I am destined to win. 

Worked for ~5h so far.

-Summarised 2 novels

-finished notes on economic theories

-currently taking notes on the EUs economic market

Completed 10hrs of studying today along with current affairs ✨

However, I’m dreading to do the maps idk why😩

Anyhow, that’s it for today. I’m getting infrequent in updating here as my phone is almost always switched off except at night but that’s when I’m already in bed after tidying up my study desk.

If you are traveling to Fukuoka, you cannot miss the historic Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine! Known as the most famous sanctuary in the region, it is dedicated to the deity of learning, making it the ultimate destination for students and those seeking academic success or passing exams. Whether you are praying for a high score or just soaking in the traditional Japanese atmosphere, this place is magic.

The Ultimate Dazaifu Snack Guide:

Umegae-mochi (Plum Branch Mochi): You MUST try this local specialty! It is a delicious grilled rice cake filled with sweet red bean paste. Pro-tip: Buy a Westetsu rail pass to get vouchers for these treats!

Chikushian Fried Chicken: Famous for their incredibly juicy Karaage burgers and variety of flavors.

Hishisho Mentaiko Sho-mai: Don’t miss these steamed dumplings packed with Fukuoka’s famous spicy cod roe.

Fukutaro: The headquarters for the famous Mentaiko crackers, where you can also grab a freshly grilled Mentaiko rice ball.

Sawawa (Matcha Specialty): A dream for matcha lovers! Their matcha warabimochi and soft-serve ice cream are top-tier.

After a full day of exploring the shrine, the Treasure Museum, and the Kyushu National Museum, take the train back to Hakata to hunt for more gourmet food, or head to Tenjin and Nakasu for the legendary Yatai (street food stalls) to end your night with a perfect late-night snack!
