I like to organize my notes using this format as it helps me to make sure I practice a grammar point or rule. Sometimes I would listen to videos that teach Japanese like Miku Real Japanese and Japanese Ammo with Misa on YouTube, take notes but forget to practice the vocabulary or grammar that I learned. In this format, I leave space for practice, which helps me to retain information better and realize if I still didn’t understand something.
I write practice sentences following the same grammar construct but using different vocabulary, verbs or nouns. If I’m not sure about a sentence I’ve written, I use Hellotalk and post my question and usually I get good advice or feedback.
Sometimes I’ll also add vocabulary that I don’t know yet, at the bottom of the page, for review and make mnemonics for them. I’ll also be posting soon, about how I remember kanji and words in Japanese with mnemonics😉
It’s ok to be jealous and mad and sad and angry and any other “negative” emotion… You’re not being toxic you’re being human. The point at which you become toxic is when you’re letting these emotions seep into how you treat others
