18. Anki 20min + notebook 15min

9. translating 2h

Yeah, I fell ashmed of myself right now... But my winter holidays were ending and moreover I have broken the power socket in laptop... ughr... And now, after the first day of a school I am too tired to do anything, even though I have an esey to write and a business plan... -.- No Japanese today T.T

EDIT: There was a small change of plans, I didn't do any school. assignments. I just spent 1.5-2h on translating a few bubble texts on a fanarts instead. >.<

5. Printing ebook 1.5h | kanjibox 0.5h | word 1.5h

Today I printed Japanese Stage-Step Course -  Workbook and Writing practice book whoch took 1.5h.
I printed kanji information and mainly reading exercises, a little writing exercises.
I found there something interesting. The importance of short/long vowel:

Do I have to say that the 3rd example (husband --> prisoner) made my day? XD

I haven't put in my contact lenses today so I am quite blind... But whathever, I can be lazy today, so it's not really important >.<

I did a table of kanji today in a Microsoft Word... It took longer than I though ;_;

4. new sites | kanjibox 0,5h

I installed Rikaikun (chrome extension) yesterday, this helps to read kanji on the weebsites. Ehh.. I mainly read about lerning Japanese yesterday, on sites such as:
Nice blog, have a few links -> ﾚﾍﾞﾙ 別日本語多読ライブラリー
Dialuogues
Free Reading Material for Beginners (Graded Reader Equivalent)
Learning Japanese w/ Free & Cheap Materials: Study Guide & Big List
Japanese newspaper for kids

Moreover I spent only half an hour on learning vocabulary on kanjibox... But I've translated every word I couldn't understand even if I knew which one of four is appropriate one ＾・＾

3. kanjibox 3h | Yotsubato! manga

Today I started doing vocab secion on kanjibox and I exercised ~150 words of 750 words for JLPT N5... I could have done a lot more, but I've read most of the displayed sentences for the word (examples of usage) - it takes a lot of time, because I understand next to nothing in them ;_; I hope it will make me remember them better!

Moreover I started reading Yotsubato! manga in Japanese, but only a first few pages. To remember words from it I've done a vocabulary set on kanjibox. Now it contains only 10 entries, but I will continue adding more for sure!

I also started doing 'Minna no Nihongo 1-5' vocab set.

Summing up 3rd day of my Japanese learning: I feel quite confident about reading hiragana (I knew it a long time before, but I sometimes misread some of the characters like e.g. さ or ち) and I do it a lot more fluently than before... But there is nothing weird in it, I had no contact with hiragana whatsoever. Also, I noticed I know a word here and there while doing quizes. I have to say, it's quite a nice feeling!

2. kanjibox 3h

When I woke up I painted one of my walls in the room using Chalkboard paint. I hope I used it in good amount, because I had only 1l (a small can) and I was afraid it won't be enough, but ended up with almost half a can left, lol.

Later, as yesterday, I continued on kanjibox.net. Getting everything done in kana has taken 45 minutes (2h15min in total knowing hiragana before):

I had a few unusual problems :/ I've chosen a good answer, but there were two options, and...

It's quite confusing! >.<''

I have to say I don't know all katakana... I've learnt how to choose good aswer while not knowing all characters yet! I think I will learn them later by writing them down on paper sheets.

What about kanji? It took a. one hour (I could hve done it in less than 30 minutes, but decided I will read everything in hiragana and katakana again and again to remember better):

I've also completed reading section in about an hour (3.5h in total):

I know at least one reading for almost every kanji in this section, but which kanji has only one? Ehh... I still don't remember east, west, north, while I can choose the answer from proposed without any problems >.<''

Completed kanji JLPT5 section in ~40 minutes, but tbh I mostly looked only on english translation, so it was pointless, easy way (1.5h-2h in total).

What more can I say? Kanjibox has 80 kanji for JLPT5 while nihongoichiban.com lists 103... Hm...
