Eavesdropping whilst waiting around. Admittedly hard to do since the Japanese don't speak on public transport (the introvert's dream) but it passes the time in the teacher's room for sure. And it doesn't feel rude for me, because I can only pick out very few words haha

Oh, for sure! Also, I feel like itโ€™s not eavesdropping if theyโ€™re talking audibly with you within earshot ๐Ÿ˜‚ I used to have a notebook filled with words I overheard and needed to look up thanks to the teachers room conversations.

I can relate on the "introvert putting all their energy into being the perfect host" part! It's a daughter thing ๐Ÿ˜Œ

Thank you for the recommendations, I'll give the game a try!

I think most of my learning these days falls somewhere in the sneaky learning category.

Are you sneakier with Spanish or Swedish?

Ahhhh these are so great! Listening to some sort of audio while multitasking has saved me a bunch of times! Itโ€™s so cool to see how we can use our time better for the things we want to do, even when we think we donโ€™t have the time. Thanks for sharing these tips!

Iโ€™m glad you like this post! While they do seem pretty basic, letโ€™s face it, not everyone has the capacity for daily sit-down study sessions. But that shouldnโ€™t hinder us from doing what we can ๐Ÿ˜Š

Those are great study tips! I'm definitely the same when it comes to needing time to recharge. I had a social event with friends on Friday and got only a few minutes of study in the day.

I've never heard of the game you mentioned. I thought it was "Bear and Breakfast" which is another bear game. Maybe you can check that one out too ๐Ÿ˜Š
