About This Video

In this weekly study vlog (part 2/2), I’m taking you with me through a few very normal-but-cozy days in Japan—Wednesday to Friday—where my study goals are basically “still calling” and I’m answering the phone little by little. I split my time between café study sessions, home routines, and slow-life moments, while keeping things realistic: gym, chores, and just doing what I can instead of chasing a perfect schedule. On the language side, I focus on holistic immersion and consistency: Japanese reading comprehension practice (N1-level reading), Chinese study at home, and a Chinese online lesson. I also work on my Intercultural Contact course by building a mind map, because for me, learning sticks when I can see the structure and connect ideas. Along the way I share the resources I’m using (apps, textbooks, and platforms), plus what I’m reading right now. If you need motivation, this one is a gentle reminder that progress is built through small, repeatable routines—and that “productive” can look calm, not chaotic.
