About
I’m learning Japanese, Korean and Chinese to read mystery novels and play video games in these languages.
Learning languages has always been one of my favourite hobbies, but I’m not a social person, I don’t like to meet new people and make friends, this is just not me. I keep hearing that languages are meant for communication, that we have to actively use them, talk with natives, etc. and for a long time, I thought it was weird to learn languages just to read books, with zero interest in communication.
Now I don’t really care what people think, and this blog helped me a lot to stop doubting myself and just do what I enjoy doing.
Hi. I was wondering what you’re set up for reading is in terms of posture and comfort?? If you have aches and whatnot, you should definitely change things up. I have a book holder that I use for books and my kindles. It’s very convenient since I don’t have to hold stuff to read and I don’t have to look down at a table. I alternate between sitting and standing for reading. I also use a music stand ( i change the angle so it’s like a table) to place my book holder for reading while standing
Thankfully, I don’t have any back pain or aches that would make it difficult to hold my books. I alternate between sitting and standing too. I also alternate between sitting at my desk (looking down) and sitting back in my chair (holding my book). I guess it’s okay because Japanese books are light.
The music stand to place your book holder is a good idea! Sometimes I rest my arms on my cat’s cat tree while standing!
