今日の勉強、できた！ ———————— 4日目よく勉強できてうれしいよ！全然一所懸命頑張ったことがなかったけど、最近、勉強するのが大変好き！！今のほうが前よりもっと分かるからだと思う。やっといい勉強の方法を見つけた。もっともっと上手になりたい！だから、来週日本語で人々に話すことにする。毎日、一日に3時間ぐらい日本語だけで話す。 みんな、今月の勉強はどう？ いつもどおり一緒に頑張りましょう！ ———————— For 4 days, I’ve been really happy that I have been studying hard! Although I have never ever studied so hard before, I really love studying lately. I think it’s because I can understand more than I used to. I finally have a good study method! I want to improve more and more! That’s why, next week, I decided I will talk to people in Japanese. Every day, for about 3 hours a day, I will only speak in Japanese. How have your studies been going this month? As always, let’s do our best! ——————— 勉強するために使った物: 日本語スピードマスター1800、日本語日記ノート、日本語500問初級、Japanese Sentence Patterns for Effective Communication、Bunpo https://www.instagram.com/p/CBCGd1yhg4f/?igshid=1fvfxjo4r2w7h

6月3日の勉強 —————— Today was a very productive day and it isn’t even over yet! I completed the N5 grammar review with Bunpo and began the N4 section (currently at 19.8% completed!). I am planning on completing all the grammar in that section before starting Minna no Nihongo 2 again, an idea I got from @ari_noyume . I am hoping this will at least act as a solid foundation/starting point before continuing on with more in-depth explanations and practice provided in the textbooks and workbooks. I will also continue with one section of Speed Master and Nihongo 500 per day until both are completed. And lastly, today I began reading one chapter from one of my many children’s books, and will continue reading a chapter per day until I have finished them all! —————— This month, for my own personal June challenge, I will continue to post daily and will update throughout the day with my progress on my stories, so keep a look out if you are interested in seeing how much I accomplish and improve during this month! ——————— Special thanks to @ari_noyume for always being a constant source of studyspiration and just overall being a very sweet, supportive, and helpful individual! https://www.instagram.com/p/CA_l8mahpNN/?igshid=1vv3khfkuoe54

今日、「塔の上のラプンツェル」を読み始めた。すごく面白い！ For the next month, I’m going to see how much my Japanese improves when a vast majority of my time is spent reading! 一月中、この予定をしてみる For a month, I’m going to be trying the following schedule: (午前) 6時に起きて、すぐにニュース・日本語を勉強のためにビデオなど見て、ノートをとる。それから、教科書を勉強して、練習する。後で、犬と散歩しながら、シャドーイングをする。 (午後) 英語・ドラマなど見ながら、もっとノートをとったり、漢字の勉強したりする。後で、本・マンガなど読む。 寝る前に、レビューをする。 https://www.instagram.com/p/B7Zse3PhA04/?igshid=r55ikp2mogax

Since I hate writing in books with pens, I bought some eraseable colored lead to mark my books! This way, when I do reviews later on, I will be able to erase any markings that highlight unknown grammar, vocab, or kanji that I didn't know at the time but know now, and if I ever decide to sell my books when I am completely done with them, I could erase the markings for the next person! If you are like me and want your books to remain as new as possible, I would certainly recommend this method as well! All the benefits with no permanent damage! _______________________ Reuploading for better photo quality! https://www.instagram.com/p/B5K_8c3BZIV/?igshid=65fuqmtyt2xf

07-12 / 100 Days of Productivity __________________________ Ah, I've been so bad at updating my productivity challenge on my feed 😧 I usually forget to take photos until it is too late in the day, and since I have an older phone with a crappy photo, those photos are always unusable. I have been updating my stories daily though, so if you are interested in what I'm using to study, I would recommend looking at those! I will even create a highlights to make it easier ! 　　　　　　　　　　　　 Anyway, back to the challenge! This entire challenge I have, so far, been using the time to review all grammar that I used to know, but don't have a great handle on. I'm limited in the resources I can use, since I left my study bag behind while on my road trip, but nonetheless I've been making sure to study! This has actually been a happy accident, since I gave been using resources that i've always thought of trying, but have relied too much on my textbooks and just never got around to using them. Big mistake! These have been so much fun to study from and I highly recommend trying them for yourself! 　　　　　　　　　　　　　 使った本 -------------- ⇢Try! 日本語能力試験N5 ⇢どんなときどう使う日本語 ⇢日本語字幕 ⇢ケータイ小説 ⇢HelloTalk ⇢Weblio ⇢Takoboto 　　　　　　　　　　　　　 レビューした文法 --------------------------- ⇢とき ⇢Vながら ⇢前に ⇢後で・後 ⇢Vてから ⇢Vるところです ⇢ませんか ⇢ましょうか ⇢よ ⇢ね ⇢あります･います ⇢Vて形 ⇢色々な疑問詞 ⇢ほしいです https://www.instagram.com/p/B4k610phOPn/?igshid=qzwp8o5hxh5u

04-06/100 Days of Productivity _____________________ Happy November! I apologize for the lack of posts during my procrastination challenge! I haven't had access to my normal textbooks or notebooks, so I haven't really had photos of anything, and don't really like posting screenshots... However I was left without choice this time! _____________________ These last few days I have been using a wife variety of resources to study (all are not pictured): × Try! 日本語能力試験N5 for reviewing basic Japanese grammar points. I started from the beginning to just refresh my memory since my study hiatus lasted lasted a few months. × ケータイ小説 for reading practice. × NHK News Easy for additional reading and translation practice. × HelloTalk for practicing conversational skills and learning new vocabulary and also practicing casual sentence structures. × Jドラマ for listening practice and also to find sentences I like to add to Anki. × Weblio (辞書)for example sentences for the words or vocabulary I learn using the above resources. × JapaneseAmmo for reviewing and learning new grammar. I've been trying to watch a video every day or every other day at the latest. _____________________ I will try to upload more regularly going forward, but I won't be able to go back to posting notes for a few more days. I am also thinking of writing and posting a daily diary on here for additional practice, but maybe that will wait until I get used to studying again and am able to move a bit quicker / have more time in my day to do so! https://www.instagram.com/p/B4V6mxXBMu3/?igshid=1aqfzc6l6k22n

02×03/100 Days of Productivity _________________________ I forgot to post these photos for the last 2 days 😧 Anyway, this Friday and Saturday I studied grammar with "Understanding Basic Japanese Grammar" and "200 Essential Japanese Expressions." I also translated an article on Saturday. I haven't translated anything longer than a sentence or two for over a year! I also posted the translation on the NHK News Easy subreddit, which I have never done before! In the past (and even now) I have been extremely self conscious when it comes to writing or speaking Japanese to other people... I haven't spoken out loud to anyone in Japanese for almost 8 years! I am just always afraid of sounding silly or making mistakes on basic things, so I just never talk or write to someone unless I know it's perfect! Even when I had PenPals for a month last year, I was always afraid of sending something that was incorrect to the point that I spent way too much time checking and double checking even the most basic of sentences, and I even refused to talk about more complex topics or write more complex sentences. Eventually, it just became way too stressful, and, like everything else pertaining learning Japanese, I stopped for a long period of time. . When starting this 100 day challenge, I told myself that I must do the following, without fail: study every day, even if it is just for 10 minutes, in order to establish a routine/habit; read, read, read everything and anything; review notes or do flashcards before bed; immerse myself in Japanese everyday by replacing English content for Japanese as much as possible; translate at least one thing per day and post everything I translate on either Reddit, HelloTalk, or Lang-8; talk and write as much as possible as often as possible, no matter what; and, learn like a child -- happily make mistakes every day without feeling embarrassed! I'm hoping by the end of the 100 days, I notice a huge improvement when I embrace mistakes and learn without fear! 2日、この写真をポストして忘れちゃった。😧とにかく、今週の金と土には「Understanding Basic Japanese Grammar」と「どんなときどう使う日本語表現文型200」で文法を勉強した。土にはNHKニュースEasy記事を翻訳した。毎日、一所懸命頑張ってる! https://www.instagram.com/p/B4I-oXth_I9/?igshid=mqzbbsbprlf1

Resource Recommendation | October 2019 ------------------------------------ I decided to start doing recommendations once a month! These recommendations could include textbooks, reading material, websites, apps, blogs, etc. -- but regardless of the type of resource, all recommendations will be, in my opinion, the best and most helpful options available. None of these recommendations are (or will ever be) sponsored. ------------------------------------ This first recommendation is an app called "Easy Japanese". You can download it for Android and iOS -- for FREE! There are some pop-up ads (that you can immediately close out of), but honestly, I hardly notice them anymore. However, if you just don't like/want ads, or have some extra change lying around and want to support the developer, Easy Japanese has 3 affordable subscription options available: monthly, yearly, and lifetime. All are 100% ad-free. - PROS (there are MANY): option to choose articles based on their difficulty level (Easy or Difficult); articles are updated multiple times a day from many different native Japanese news sources; button to save articles and view them later; audio which is perfect for listening practice; multiple practice tests for JLPT N5-N1; and multiple customizable options such as: choosing which words or grammar to highlight based on JLPT level, hide or show furigana, etc. . While all these are great, my favorite feature is the built-in dictionary! It either automatically pops-up when you click on highlighted words in the article or can be accessed by clicking on the dictionary icon. It includes: vocabulary definitions and content type (i.e. noun, adverb, adjective); classification of the JLPT level; conjugation charts; a ton (and I mean a ton!) of example sentences and common uses/phrases; synonyms; explanations and examples for grammar; and kanji readings and stroke order! . CONS: pop-up ads without subscription; need internet to access content; sometimes content in the Easy section is too difficult for beginners. ------------------------------------ All in all, this app is one of my absolute favorites! I hope you find it as interesting and helpful as I do! みんな、一緒に頑張ってください! https://www.instagram.com/p/B4Iq7oWBBCU/?igshid=m0isxcc6b4zz

001/100 Days of Productivity So earlier this month I became a year older.... and since I will be hitting a major age-related milestone next year, I decided to once again try the 100 Days of Productivity Challenge! I’m trying to revive my language learning journey so that I can accomplish some serious Japanese goals this year, and I want to use these 100 days to correct a lot of old problems that I’ve had regarding myself and my study habits. I want to let go of any unrealistic expectations regarding motivation, and the myth that it is constantly needed in order to study, and instead be more realistic and focus on developing and becoming more disciplined this time around. I have been doing a lot of reading, soul searching, and planning, and am just overall feeling better/less anxious about this journey than I ever have in the past. Wish me luck? Today I began studying from どんなときどう使う日本語表現文型200 and started reading Salvation of a Saint by Keigo Higashino (one of my all time favorite Japanese authors). Since my hand was bothering me a lot today (it’s been acting up a lot since Tuesday, actually), I wasn’t able to get too much done study-wise.... but I am just happy to be studying again. I will end the day by reviewing my flash cards in Anki before bed, as well as skimming through and reviewing all old notes from Genki I. Tomorrow I will focus mainly on going through みんなの日本語 1 as much as possible to reinforce my knowledge in the grammar I know but still struggle with, and also see which grammar points weren’t covered in Genki - so look forward to pictures of those notes tomorrow! I’ll probably add in some self-made sentences for vocab that is covered in both books as well, and just review those whenever I have downtime ! As it stands now though, I am not going to put pressure on myself to work through my hand pain and get a certain amount of studying done, and just work at a pace that I’m comfortable with for once! I’m also going to be spending the day retraining my left hand so that I can write with it in Japanese, so I’ll post those gruesome scribbles as well! It’s good to be back! https://www.instagram.com/p/B4BWxGnBj-K/?igshid=1272huo1jlfgn
