I was learning Japanese by myself + practiced writing Hiragana + Katakana. I can read Hiragana + Katakana now w/o referring to my notes, but I can’t read them quite fluently yet + I can also write them now (slowly).

Till now, I still can’t handle Kanji yet. I know Chinese but its pronunciation is different from Kanji. Their meanings are similar to each other, so whenever I read Kanji, I can mostly understand the meaning but I can’t pronounce them without the Hiragana.

I can understand everyday Japanese conversations (from watching anime ever since I was 8y/o) but can’t speak fluently yet 😅

just moved in to my dorm at Cornell. definitely better than I expected. got a single at the end of the hall with an awesome view of the volleyball court. had a lot of posters and photos to hang up from back home, which definitely made the room a whole lot cozier. still got a couple more things to buy, though.

P.S. if any of you are joining PREPARE this week, dm me!

08.08.2018 | a new chapter is about to begin!

Long time no writing in my personal journal (lol). I wrote down things that happened during the past months, my self-reflection, and my intentions for the upcoming semester, which I’m going to share some of them with you guys:

keep GPA above 3.00 (I try not to be an overachiever here haha)

decide on which major/minor I want to pursue next year

write in my personal journal more

prioritize my mental well-being

be more organized and stuff

Ft. a stationery shop I visited during my trip to Russia, so many cute things there!

Since my manager is in the hospital I didn’t have work today. I got up early and went to Target with my best friend, and then we spent the rest of the day studying in my apartment. We studied quietly and alone for a little while until my roommates woke up and came into the living room to do homework with us. Even though our kitchen table got pretty cluttered, it was kind of refreshing to be able to sit back and see all the productivity. 

We started planning a spring break trip to Maine and somewhere along the way we ended up sharing stories of good winters and sledding incidents from when we were younger. It was a really good day, and I was glad to have extra time to get work done. 

Last week I didn’t work out as much as I wanted to and I didn’t eat very healthy. Even though I was already down emotionally, not maintaining my health didn’t help with my mood either. This week I’m hoping to get back on track and find my balance again.

It has been one hell of a stressful month. I just want to crawl up and disappear because there’s just too much I need to do and nothing is going as expected. Take for example yesterday, when my application for this research opportunity was due. I emailed my professor for a letter of recommendation two months prior but she suddenly went MIA yesterday and did not submit it before the deadline. And now I have a huge psych exam tomorrow I have to study for and I’m not even halfway done. I also have a quiz in calc which I’m doing horrible in, even though I stay up studying almost every night. Oh and I can’t forget to study for the ACT, go to work, and lead my extracurriculars. I had a couple of break downs, lost a substantial amount of hair, and have broken out on my face.
