afternoon, strangers.

I haven’t been active in months (??), because it’s difficult to find time to blog about your studies or get stuck perusing tags when you’re slammed as it is. so even though I haven’t updated here that doesn’t mean I stopped my studies---I’m actually nearly finished with Genki 2 now!

as of today I wrapped up lesson 19 and will be moving on to lesson 20. the last chapter is still a good eight to ten weeks away, but it feels so close. last june I was kicking off Genki 1, and a little over a year later I’ll be finishing the series and moving on to an intermediate text. I don’t know which textbook that will be yet, but it’s been a ride and I’m excited.

anyhow, I’m not dead; just busy. covid-19 has changed a lot of plans or otherwise made things very uncertain; that being said, I’m not sure where the leaves me and my nursing application (as it will be due next year by early spring, if they stick to the schedule...). I don’t know what will happen, but I’m currently working through Math for Nurses Pocket Guide---a pretty old edition, but math is math, right? I just hope the injection procedures and routes haven’t changed. I’d say the one thing I’m nervous about is flunking a math exam and butchering the make-up exam---one mistake on both gets you kicked out of the program. I’m going to be stressed and I’m going to be tired, and math falls right out of my head unless I put it to constant practice. best to start working at it sooner rather than later, yeah? any prospective nursing students/actual nursing students/RNs out there with good books, lmk!

for japanese, I’m not doing anything different. I make a study guide for each lesson, map it out through my planner, and workworkwork. it doesn’t always fit into my schedule nicely, but I make it work before every sunday somehow! I did injure my wrist a month or two ago, so I’ve had to lay off and go easy on the notes (which I hate! notes are the best for quick reference when doing practice material). as long as I don’t overkill on workouts I can manage handwriting again, though, so I can’t wait for a longer review period where I can cover the chapters I could only read through. <(¬＿¬<)

* cookie is a no-bake cookie recipe from i heart naptime minus chia seeds. yummy but small! * I finally got new glasses so I can see again! apparently I am still highly typo-prone, however. * I am back to splits stretching after falling off the wagon ): #dontgiveup * I am trying to read more! I finished Between the World & Me + all of the ATLA comics (੭ु´͈ ᐜ `͈)੭ु⁾⁾ Currently reading Taboo and poorly trying to squeeze in reading practice for japanese but failing

I’d like to be more active again, so I’ll try, but it might turn out as well as reading in japanese is going.
