Week 2・Japanese Immersion Log

In a lot of ways I stepped on the breaks this past week or so because my reviews are just out of hand. I want to focus on completing the Kanji deck provided by Migaku because it's so close to the finish line. Only doing 5 Sentence cards a day feels defeating but so many of my reviews come from the Kanji deck. Completing that first will eventually dwindle down daily reviews PLUS give me some satisfaction knowing I won't struggle when seeing that Kanji pop up later.

Week 1・Japanese Immersion Log

This is my first post on Tumblr in a while, with more to come I hope! Let's start with the fact that "Week 1" is sort of a lie, but I haven't been consistent until recently with my immersion to even consider blogging about it. A lot of what I'll be writing is for myself to look back on so I don't continue to feel I'm making no progress. That's NOT to say I'll be getting deep in the weeds of documenting every little thing. Just a few tangible statistics w/ a sprinkle of commentary about how I'm feeling.

Sentai Daishikkaku ⭐ ・5 Episodes of Freeflow, I'm able to follow the plot well enough. Kind of a struggle in terms of making out words. Chojin Sentai Jetman ⭐ ・10 Episodes of Freeflow, another struggle but enjoying my time spent with it alongside a friend who's really into the series! Takagi-san ⭐⭐ ・2 Episodes of Active immersion consisting of me reading as I go along, skipping over any dialogue that has too many unknown words. This feels like a good use of my time and I plan on finishing General YouTube Content ・Low Attention pretty much across the board here. This is an area that could use improvement from me, I have a habit of turning something on just out of my level and listening to it while doing things around the house or at the gym. I know a better method would be to listen to content I've already seen, but at this time I don't have much content to go off of and rely heavily on Migaku's "Late Beginner" playlist.
