Hello little butterfly! This is my little corner in the web to plant my own secret garden. I draw. I write. I read.
You'll find me scattered across the net as @imMarisabel or perhaps, you'd like to follow along more closely with my RSS feed where every post, update, and even the simplest bookmark is an invitation to wander through my world. Feel free to leave a note in my guestbook — because every garden flourishes with a bit of company.
"Might I," quavered Mary, "might I have a bit of earth?" In her eagerness she did not realize how queer the words would sound and that they were not the ones she had meant to say. Mr. Craven looked quite startled. "Earth!" he repeated."What do you mean?" "To plant seeds in, to make things grow, to see them come alive," Mary faltered.
The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett [CH.12]
Focus June 2026:
- Reading my next Japanese light novel: 本好きの下剋上 第一部 兵士の娘1 by 香月美夜, 椎名優 — with Furigana! It is much more enjoyable and I just want to drill the Kanji without having to look up pronunciation every time... I know the meaning though!
- Continue: Daily N4 Japanese videos immersions (1 hour a day). — except busy family days.
- Continue: Anki N4 Deck (20 new cards a day using Memory Palace method). (in progress!)
- Continue: On the Greener Side Artwork (in progress, when the sun shines.)
- I have a hyperactive weird brain... dipping my toes into the Korean writing system in preparation to learn Korean in about a year once the intensity of Japanese lowers (at about N3)
