*Patch Notes 07/03/23*

I set up this white board about a week ago. It's on a plein-air easel I found at Goodwill for like $8, seated on some riser shelves on my kitchen table. Today I finally got around to writing stuff on it.

On the left is the current ideals I'm chasing and on right is a running to-do list. Also a bunch of leaves as as decorative border. It adds to the visual appeal which leads to me actually looking at my to do list. Hopefully this will prevent it from fading into the background.

Got caught up in a lot of executive dysfunction😠

Shit's still a mess

Forcing myself to play some Zelda because I've been skipping that a lot lately and I think I would benefit some quality downtime

I bought a desk organizer at TJ Maxx the other day and I've decided to use it for Japanese study materials.

I've been studying Japanese for years off and on (mainly procrastinating and putting it off for various reasons). I've bought a ton of books for it but I've never made much headway because that requires sitting down and actually studying which my hyperactive ass is very bad at.

Anyway, I cleared off my desk and started setting this bad boy up. I started by collecting all my reference books and was struck by the realization that I do not remember buying, owning, or even knowing of the existence of a lot of these books. Like what the fuck have I been doing. I've (apparently) spent so much money on books I just forget I have. I know that, as a rule, I only buy reference material if I've found something useful about them, but boy howdy this can't have been worth the dollar amount. How many other areas of my life has this sort of thing been happening?

That aside, I got it set up with reference books, one volume of manga for reading practice, a box of flashcards, writing/drawing tools, a notebook, and bunch of sticky notes(both for studying and my planner)

Oof.

Remains to be seen if it helps. As it is, probably not because I don't have any concrete study plan and, as mentioned previously, sitting down and actually studying is something my hyperactive ass is very bad at.

Next Steps:

Make a study plan

Research self study plans

Go through the books, see what's good about them. Write that information down.

Maybe part with the less useful ones.

Maybe maybe set something up that's portable so my hyperactive ass doesn't need to sit down to study. The organizer can act as home base for my stuff

Revisit this in a month or two to make sure I'm actually doing something with this and it hasn't faded into the background

Moved refrigerator and kitchen table over so I can reach my kitchen's poorly placed light switch easier

Minor cleaning. Didn't feel minor but there's still stuff everywhere?

Some stuff off basement floor and onto the new shelves. No sorting system yet
