English Vocabulary Journal

I was watching ParkerNotes’ latest video on YT about the best way to expand your vocabulary and it pushed me to set up a vocabulary notebook at 3 am in the morning lmao. I liked the method he explained in the video, and despite having failed attempts at keeping a physical and digital word bank, I think I could make this work for me.

I simplified the method of adding a word into my vocabulary notebook. First, I write the word, specify what type of word it is (noun, verb, etc.) and then I jot down its definitions from the Merriam-Webster website. I don’t include the word’s etymology as to not make things complicated.

To increase the chances of me not dipping out on this journal, I decided to use a precious notebook of mine which is the A6 Muji Open-Flat Notebook in Black.

I had a good experience writing in this notebook so far which alleviates the urge in me to write stuff sloppily in it and just overall treating it as if it were disposable (do any of you do this with notebook you don’t like?).

That’s all I have to say for now. I look forward to writing more notebook-related entries in this blog. Thank you for reading and have a nice day :-))

made this in a haze a couple nights ago and completely forgot that i made it the morning after.....

Explaining the gyaru age groups!

I do this because I know that this can get confusing for a lot of people and some gals say ‘my fav substyle is kogal!’ When kogal is not a substyle!

Chibigyaru

The term chibigyaru applies for gals who are 12 and under! Chibigals are usually influenced and seen with their gyaru mamas! Chibigals usually have little to no makeup and dress casual.

Magogyaru

Magogals are gyarus who are aged 13 to 15! They are not yet in high school but are teenagers!

Kogyaru

Aka kogal, kogal is a term for gals who are 15- 18! To be specific, gals in high school. Japanese gals sometimes pair their uniforms with their gyaru makeup and look, which is why kogyaru is easily mistakes as a substyle. It is not a substyle though, it is an age group!

Obaagyaru

Obaagals are usually older gals, typically grandmas!
