Unimportant Post
Feb. 3rd, 2026 11:30 pmThe speech-to-text service is working for me again, so I've gone back to the transcriptless podcast I was studying. Now I'm studying two podcasts simultaneously. This seems like good way to acclimate to a variety of speaking styles and prevent boredom.
Tomorrow is my housing inspection, so I finally cleaned the apartment somewhat thoroughly. I got rid of more of the mold stains than I expected to be able to get rid of, but mold is still visible in my bathtub and shower.
It seemed that I slept more than usual last night. I had another dose of iron; I suspect that's the reason. I'm going to continue having this larger dose despite the cost. Sleep is so important. I just noticed that it's eleven pm, I'm in shorts, and I don't feel cold. Body warmth is like a miracle for me.
Something I read about crime in Hong Kong made me think that Singapore is a better option.
I need to work on pivoting away from Mandarin and towards study of applied math. I just need to spend less time on Mandarin, not give it up completely.
