I don't think I did well on this JLPT. I may get a worse result than last year. Once again, I found the listening section hard to understand because of the speakers, which sound muffled. I don't know if this is a problem I have or everyone has or just an excuse I am making for not being good enough.

Happy JLPT day to those who celebrate. Hopefully this is the last one I'll ever do.

Silurian felsic volcaniclastics, or if you prefer nice sea-worn bedrock, eastern Tasmania. Some of the most colourful lichen I've ever seen - this stuff is vivid. Can see it along much of NE Tasmania above high tide notably on the aptly-named Bay of Fires that we didn't get to but this will do ⚒️🧪

Think I'll do a speedrun of the Kanzen Master 聴解 book and leave it at that for this year. I need to reacquaint myself with the format to avoid surprises.
The practice is good too but it may also reveal how much I suck and who wants to feel bad??

Okay j-dramas are good, actually. Cue regret at not doing this 10 years ago. I've been watching a series called わたし、定時で帰ります and I've been enjoying it a lot. Almost halfway through.
Now why would I choose this series in particular as my first j-drama, I hear you ask? Allow me to explain:

last week i remembered that macOS lets you set your own icons and that *I* have the power to delegitimize the professionalism of the software that runs on my machine, so here's a thread of the 16 new icons i've made so far
i really forgot how fun it was to just sit down and make art for myself :')

Finally paid off my grammar debt. A lot of these feel natural now instead of something to scrutinize so I'm feeling pretty good about that.
Now for more listening practice. I've been watching vlogs lately and while they're helpful I feel like the monologue nature isn't very suitable for JLPT study.

Suppose I should do these. Haven't touched a single card since last year.

Going through my Japan photos. Might post a bunch!
I bought this purely for the Cultural Experience. It was 500 yen, tasted like water, and was filled to the yellow line. I had low expectations and it was worse than that. Would not recommend.

I lost 2kg in Japan, probably from walking 10 hours a day, and despite regular late-night konbini junk.
Lost an addition 1kg in the ten days after just from being sick. Not exactly a good thing when you're muscle maxxing but I'll take it. Gym day tomorrow so I can assess the damage.

After a week of hurling insults at nvidia (usually the correct choice) and hours wasted trying to "fix" the shitty drivers that were clearly loaded but not working correctly (100% cpu on graphics, Steam not loading, etc), I finally noticed I was loading into an Xorg session instead of wayland. Oops.

Must have caught something on the flight home because I've been sick the past couple days. Bleh 🤢🤮.
Might do a photo dump when I'm feeling better. Then it's emergency N1 study mode with the remaining time I have left.
