God this month has been long and short. Is this what adult life is now? Time just doing whatever it wants? It’s been hot as hell and I’m ready for autumn to arrive. August immersion material was a bit diverse! Just a bit. I finished 古書店街の橋姫 with the help of a friend at the startContinue reading “August Check-in: Revivals”

Sentence Mining and Sentence Banks
I’ve mentioned previously in a check-in post or two about how when using Anki, I’m sentence mining to make cards while also having a sentence bank deck. I’d like to go a bit more in-depth about what these things even are, how I utilize them, and why I love them! Sentence mining is probably talkedContinue reading “Sentence Mining and Sentence Banks”
July Check-in: :)))
Okay so remember how I planned stuff last month? “Tee-hee, I’m going to read this and that and that one too! “ That got chucked out the window almost immediately. For one, I just wasn’t really feeling some of the reads. 戯言 and コップクラフト I may return to at one point, but for now theyContinue reading “July Check-in: :)))”
June Check-in: New Game+
Another month of 2023 about to pass! How’s everyone doing so far this summer? I’m doing my best to stay cool. Last month, I mentioned a bit about some of the changes I had been going through, and feeling a bit directionless still. I’m not sure about all of you, but I find it takesContinue reading “June Check-in: New Game+”
Weekly Check-in 09/02/2020
Mature cards: +117Young/Learn: -91 I really slowed down on adding new cards this past week. I spent a lot of time actively watching things on youtube and occasionally adding to my live mining deck via ShareX. I also decided to make a lazy vocabulary deck. Active Vocab is where I’m adding vocabulary only cards (viaContinue reading “Weekly Check-in 09/02/2020”
Weekly Check-in 08/25/2020
Oops, yesterday was Monday! I usually like to do these on Monday but I completely forgot. Mature cards increased by: 82Young/Learn cards…decreased by: 4. Wow I had a bunch of cards become Mature in the past week! That is very comforting to know. I feel a little anxious with my “unseen” number getting bigger andContinue reading “Weekly Check-in 08/25/2020”
Weekly Check-in 08/17/2020
I was definitely not as active in Anki as I was last week!Mature cards increased by 30. Young/learn cards increased by 60. “If all of the cards in this deck are n+1, why do you have suspended cards?” asked nobody!I always add cards after learning new words. So let’s say I learned “班長”. I’ll searchContinue reading “Weekly Check-in 08/17/2020”
I’m so late to this party
I watched two videos recently that really changed my study routine. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IS7WzYICAsk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oBvWxCA7p5k ShareX is a wonderful tool that I had only vaguely heard of before, but underestimated it’s powers. Using it to make generating Anki cards quicker has been such a lifesaver. And LLN?! WOW. I love that I can immediately make a cardContinue reading “I’m so late to this party”
Weekly Check-in 08/10/2020
Monday again! But what a special Monday indeed, am I right FFXIV players? Patch drops tomorrow and we can’t play the game today! Woo! I did manage to study quite a bit in the past week though. Mature cards increased by 23.Young and Learn cards increased by 114. One hundred and fourteen! It’s been awhileContinue reading “Weekly Check-in 08/10/2020”
Hardcore Anki Competition
な～んちゃって！ I don’t think I would have the stamina for another language learning competition (I did something on Memrise yeeeears ago and got top 25. It was wild and I remember next to nothing!) However, it is always fun to compete against yourself. I would love to use the heatmap anki extension for this, butContinue reading “Hardcore Anki Competition”
