Commissions are open! <3

Hi guys! Just letting you in on some exciting news. I decided to lend myself a shot at opening commissions for Japanese info charts and guides!

I know it is a bit different from the usual commission style, but I figure, maybe some people would be willing to support me for some easy-to-follow, info-packed images that are also pleasing to the eye. These kanji charts for example include mnemonics that I personally created!

I will definitely post more examples once I have them made, but if you’re interested in booking charts like these for a dollar, definitely hit up my commissions page!

I can do paired images like the first two, N6 topics all the way up to N4. However, if it’s a general beginner up to intermediate request, JLPT specifications are not required. ^-^ I can also use romaji or follow theme requests. Please message me if you have questions or a specific request you’re not sure about!

This is more for fun than anything else, obviously I don’t expect to make much money from it (like at all xd), but I do hope that you’ll be interested regardless! It’s an enjoyable way to review for me whilst still helping others in the process. <3

Why learn a foreign language, you ask?

  • Understanding and speaking the language will at some point inevitably make you feel like a spy/important person… - Bonus points for when you can eavesdrop on public conversations.
  • Have those fun little moments when you catch mistakes in your target language on signs, merchandise and in media. (Especially if it’s Japanese or Chinese… People love to butcher those). 
  • Imagine what your crush would think if they suddenly realize you speak a different language 3 months after meeting you. They may gasp, exclaim that you’re full of surprises, and go weak in the knees from your oh-so-mysterious demeanor (bonus points if it’s French or Italian). 
  • Fulfill your study aesthetic dreams, because you finally have something to theme a new blog around. Time to splurge on a pretty notebook and nice pens and work on that handwriting. Get the desk set up nice and cute, grab yourself the most beautiful coffee mug you can find. You’ve just become that girl. And you love it. Can’t forget to mention the messy buns, glasses (don’t have to be prescription), cat ownership and plants. 
  • Increase your chances of escaping eternal loneliness TEN FOLD because learning a language just opened doors to millions of people who couldn’t speak yours. 
  • Your personality may shift depending on which language you’re speaking, due to cultural and linguistic differences. So, by learning a new language, you will not only become more knowledgable about the world around you, but about yourself and people in general. 
  • Accurately understand books, shows, and all sorts of media in your target language. (No more relying on suspicious subtitles).
  • Feel satisfied in knowing that you’ve picked up quite a fun and rewarding hobby that can and will expand your life in every possible way.

Progress Tracking Reset

hi guys! I fell a bit off routine so I’m gonna restart my tracking to help me get motivated!

Daily Routine:
WaniKani - All reviews, lessons if available, 2 times per day (night and morning)
Bunpro - All reviews, +1 Grammar, +10 vocab

Changed my deck from N5/N4 to the Genki deck for now, because I want my Genki knowledge mastered.

That’s the baseline for now! If the grammar is too easy, I can add one more for the day of course. I’ll play it by ear ^-^
