You’re reading this because you’re a paid subscriber. Thank you! 🤍 We’re two months into the year, and I think I’ve found a planner system that works for my personality. It’s not overwhelming, it’s simple, but not boring (well, at least for me). Also, I say planner, but it’s really an all-in-one notebook. There’s the…

You’re reading this because you’re a paid subscriber. Thank you! 🤍 1. After learning French on and off for almost 3 years, ramdam ko na talaga yung improvement ko.

Naaalala ko yung…

You’re reading this because you’re a paid subscriber. Thank you! 🤍 I started using Hobonichi as my planner in 2023. There are different Hobonichi planner variations, but I like the flexibility of the ‘day-free’ because 90% are just blank pages. I have the freedom to do whatever layout I want and skip some weeks, but…

Update: Unfortunately, Babbel isn’t offering live classes anymore. I’m taking French classes again! I started posting them again on TikTok, so I’m currently receiving questions on how I’m learning the language, what platform I’m using, and most importantly, the cost. Since I’m no longer using Lingoda, I decided to make a separate post for Babbel…
