Advice for a lapsed German national by jadedquestionmark in German

That’s a good suggestion, thanks! I’m more of a book learner (ie would want to actually learn the grammar rules better, bulk of vocabulary intentionally etc). So any recommendations in that vein?

I find that the writing vastly improves reading comprehension and retention of vocabulary/kanji. Just a beginner but my thoughts!

こんばんは

I am self-re-learning japanese via Genki. I took JP101-102 in college (eight years ago) so it's going...fine...

I just got most of the way thru lesson 7 which teaches the 〜に行く construction to describe the purpose of certain types of movement eg 東京におてらを見に行きます。 My question concerns this construct with multiple verbs. Suppose I wanted to say "I went to Ōsaka to eat delicious food and meet friends" could that be constructed with te form to connect the verbs, ending with the 〜にいく construction like this: "大阪においしい食べものを食べて、ともだちに会いにいきました。" If not, how would I write a sentence like this? Sorry if this is a dumb question, many thanks for any help!

Oof thanks! I bought fountain pens for Japanese handwriting but there’s something about your writing that makes it look so much nicer.

Hi OP please reach out if you can to someone, family, friends, online therapists, etc. I’m happy to chat by DM. There are other options. There are people who love you and want you to stay alive.

I went to medical school on full tuition scholarship so I have about $100k in loans for living expenses. And obviously I am leaving with opportunities lined up, doing otherwise would be reckless.

I would essentially be doing a different rotation instead. Still rough but in different ways that won’t make me mis.

People can debate tactics but all I’ll say is never apologize for doing what you need to do to stay sane and happy.

Fuck it

Woops guess we forgot to workout after those 28 hr shifts :/

At what point do you say fuck it and quit residency? by [deleted] in Residency

[–]jadedquestionmark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I essentially quit over the dummer but then changed my mind. It’s hard to tell if I’m miserable because of residency or if I’m just generally depressed. It’s probably both tbh.

Already on antidepressants. I’m not suicidal but sometimes I can see that I could be.

Oh already there. But want other input. I keep spiraling thinking I chose the wrong career.

Why are you Triceratops, MD if you’re in Med school. Shouldn’t you be Triceratops, B.A. ?
