New Month's Resolutions 2026

My February goal to sort through all my tumblr likes was a grand success! It was actually really soothing and meditative to go on a journey through my interests of the last few years, enjoying fan art, laughing at memes, pondering over short stories, and finally checking out all those recommendations that I told myself I was going to get round to some day. My likes are down to 0 and I feel refreshed!

For March I’ve decided I want to incorporate some lowkey studying for the Kanji Kentei into my routine (I’m not sure I’ll ever take the actual exam, but I thought it would be fun to study for it anyway). I vacillated a lot over how best to beemind this: because it’s going to be a combination of workbooks and anki, I initially thought time tracking would be a good way to do it, but I felt resistance at the idea of having another daily number to track and log. So I’ve kept it super simple, and it’s just “touches”: touch some study material, 6 times a week. Here’s the goal: kanken.
