A recommendation of ASMR for studying

Again, I haven't been active for quite a while on this blog. But today I want to bring you just a few of my favourite ASMR videos that I want to recommend. I use them whenever I have to do readings for classes (I'm in my last semester now!) or when I work on term papers. Except for one, there are no voices, but they all have slightly different vibes to them and while I love the sound of rain, I want to feel cozy, warm and comfortable whenever I have to study so I tend to avoid ASMRs with rain in the background. It makes me feel cold somehow, and I also really don't like it when the sounds are too loud or too many at once. That's what I keep in mind when I choose an ASMR and I keep coming back to the same ones. Skip the first 4 to get to the Harry Potter videos!

秋の囲炉裏を囲んで。 A very calm setting. Fire crackling, crickets chirping and an iron pot of soup boiling on the irori (recessed hearth in traditional Japanese houses). I recommend this channel in general if you're looking for calm ASMRs with that specific Japan vibe.

Writer's Library from the 1930s. Songbirds, footsteps, clinking teaware, turning pages, fire crackling (among others).

Library Sounds. This one is extremely laid back and silent (as a library should be!). Very distant pitter-patter of rain against windows, shuffling of books, buzzing of lamps, the occasional whisper or scratching of a pen.

Victorian office ambience in winter. Soft wind, fireplace crackling, rustling paper, rummaging through drawers.

Harry Potter Ambience: all by the lovely @/ASMR rooms on Youtube.

Slytherin Common Room. My absolute favorite. Underwater sounds, page turning, fire crackling, pen writing, footsteps on stone, doors creaking & the occasional giant squid roaring in the distance.

Gryffindor Common Room. Fire crackling, heavy wind outside, doors creaking, feathers scratching on paper, footsteps, cat purring, page turning, the occasional cough from another student, whispering.

Potions Classroom. Page turning, fluids burbling and boiling, pestling in a mortar, writing, glass vials clinking, footsteps.

Divination Classroom. Fire crackling, a clock striking, doors creaking, tea being poured and teaware clinking, pages turning, whispering.

Christmas Special: Christmas at the Burrow. This one has fuzzy voices in it, laughing, fire crackling, rummaging through drawers, footsteps, chickens and birds outside, liquids being poured, the clinking of tableware.

24.10.2020 Spent the day in the science library anthropology reading room to plan my essay. Is anyone else struggling with the closures of study spaces? It's so echoey in here. The cafes on campus are closed and it's being difficult for ED recovery to not have a place to get lunch easily. X Emily

On my instagram, I’ve started tracking my progress at reading Harry Potter And The Sorcerer’s Stone and extracting all the new vocabulary I don’t know. I figured the peeps on tumblr who study Japanese would find this helpful too, so here you go! Pattern as follows: Japanese ◘ Reading in Hiragana/Katakana ◘ English !!! Sometimes there will be no reading written down, in that case it simply means that it’s an easy Kanji for me personally. Mostly I use Weblioi to look up words, sometimes Jisho as well.

神秘な ◘ シンピな ◘ mysterious

非常識 ◘ ヒジョウシキ ◘ absurdness

まるっきり ◘ entirely, completely

認める ◘ みとめる ◘ to acknowledge, accept

まか不思議 ◘ まかフシギ ◘ profound mystery

とうてい ◘ (cannot) possibly, (not) at all

製造する ◘ セイゾウする ◘ to manufacture/produce

ずんぐり ◘ short and stout (body)

肉づきがよい ◘ well-padded (body)

口ひげ ◘ mustache

目立つ ◘ to be striking, stand out

垣根越し ◘ かきねごし ◘ over the fence (looking, talking)
