My uncle gave me my grandparents’ old travel stuff like brochures and postcards. I’m going to throw some of them away because I’m trying to clean up and get rid of clutter.

It’s vintage stuff and I feel like someone out there might appreciate seeing them, so I’m going to post them here.

They went to Japan in 1970. These are just a few things.

These are my Duolingo stats for 2022.

Last year I started using flashcards again and it has improved my vocabulary immensely. I wish I had been using flashcards from the beginning. My vocabulary would be a lot bigger now. Probably double or more in size.

I put flashcards up all around the house. I put them above the sink in the kitchen and the bathrooms. I have them clipped in piles on the dining table and next to the couch. I also have them in the bedroom to look at before I go to sleep.

My main target language is Korean, but last year I started learning Finnish. I have no reason to learn Finnish, but I love it so much! It is such a fun language and the grammar is so close to English that you end up learning it faster than other languages.

I speak it to my dog sometimes and he seems to understand. He likes it. 😆 

I found a library book at the digital library that lists only Korean translated to Finnish vocabulary words. So, I made flashcards where I can learn both languages at the same time. I heard that it’s better to learn more than one language at one time, so this works out great for me.

I got this Loog kids’ guitar for Christmas hoping that it will be easier for me to learn play on an electric guitar. It has a built-in amp, so you don’t have to plug it in, but you can if you want to. Playing guitar is still not easy! I lack finger strength and length.

I want to play and sing K-pop songs but I’m still 1) learning to speak Korean and 2) playing those songs are hard! I’m trying to learn to play fingerstyle because my strumming sounds horrible on guitar. It’s so bad it’s like why even bother.

But the guitar looks pretty.

My husband started watching Wednesday with me. We were laughing at the things she was saying and he said, “I know why you like her! She’s totally you!” Lol Not in appearance, but she says things I say like, “Hell is other people” and “No good deed goes unpunished.” I navigate pretty well in the dark and don’t turn the light on a lot of the time. I have her humor. I like cloudy, rainy days. We both like to write, too. 😆 I don’t play cello, though. I play ukulele. I’m not completely like her. Hahahah!

It’s Duolingo’s 10th anniversary. I just ordered this anniversary plushy of Duo. I’m not into stuffed animals but this is so kawaii! I had to have it.

I got it from the Duolingo store.

It’s Monday. I’m still putting up with people and they’re still putting up with me.

My study of J. Scott Campbell’s Superman.

Drawing during a heatwave is annoying. I hate summer.

Wow, I watched this today for the artwork because Shojiro Nishimi also did designs for Tekkoninkreet, but the whole film was great! I was engaged from the beginning. It was hilarious!

I don’t know why people rated it low. What the hell is wrong with them?! But 91% of Google users liked it.

If you’re expecting some kids silly animated movie, then this isn’t it. It’s not for little kids. There’s violence and a lot of shoot-outs.

It’s set in a dystopian Los Angeles in a bad neighborhood. There are supernatural elements to it.

I was laughing out loud. My husband was drawing off to the side but was listening and laughing, too. He wanted me to start it over and watch it with our teen boys. We all liked the film.

I think I need to make a mid-year resolution to not give anyone any unsolicited advice because this year I’m offending people left and right.

I just need to keep my mouth shut and say positive things. People don’t want to hear anyone’s advice anyway and it’s not like they’re gonna follow it no matter how logical it is.

Maybe most of us just meander around bumping into walls and thinking we’re making progress.

I just realized that she looks evil with the red eyes. J. Scott Campbell does it way better with red ink. Oh well, there goes that experiment.

I just keep drawing this style so that one day I can draw my characters with the same elements.

I hope you have a good day even though the world is going to the crapper right now.

This is a J. Scott Campbell study.
