My First Calligraphy Video

I have an hour to spare. So, what am I going to write about? Japanese calligraphy, ... again.😅

I tried to film myself again today. I did it for three minutes but then I dropped an ink bottle. I might be clumsy, but don't want to admit it. It didn't look like a big deal but after cleaning the desk/ kitchen table, I noticed that the ink had run down the table and on the floor. So, I had to clean the kitchen. Then, I stopped and tried to cook something because hunger leads to clumsiness sometimes. Meanwhile the food was on the stove, I started to film with a tripod. I might've broken a little something, but that broken part didn't matter at all.

I wrote for 17 minutes. I think I was able to remember some of those characters. Honestly, although hiragana sounds like the easiest part of the Japanese characters, it's difficult for me to learn them. I'm sure I need to give my brain a break. It's been fired for a long time.

I'm uploading my hiragana video on YouTube and the upload process takes almost 2 hours because I have to use a VPN.

I'm going to share the link of my video under this post later because I'm proud of myself for being able to sit for 20 minutes and do something interesting. I'm pretty sure my handwriting sucks, but that's totally okay. I'm usually so confident when I start a new language, but I lose it all when I get to B1 and give up. Then, I forget most of it. Then, I complain about it on Journaly and you encourage me. Then, again, I keep turning around this circle.

I can't keep writing until I can share the link. So, let's stop and publish the post now.

By the way, I haven't gotten any corrections recently. Should I think my posts are perfect :p, long, boring, not interesting to read, or am I expecting too much as a non-premium user?
