03.10.17 // 23/100 days of productivity // handwritten
i’ve decided that alongside my general duolingo/lingodeer/etc app time, i’m going to devote my handwritten studies to the stuff I’d need to pass the JLPT N5. I’ve missed the cutoff for this year, but I figure that gives me ample time to make sure i’m fully prepared for next year! Also, I’ve been woeful in my kanji study, so it’s probably a good idea to start taking it seriously.
it’s also day 3 of @athenastudying ‘s October Study Challenge! I keep forgetting about the time difference and getting confused as to why i’m a day ahead (o>艸<)
