[T-977] J-Pop in my car?

Dear Rine,

Today I had to drive up to the city center during evening rush hour due to some unexpected errand. A couple of hours went down the bin right there. Those could have been productive active immersion hours.

But things happen and I ought to find opportunities in them. For example, I listened to my old rap CDs in the car. Ideally, I should have listened to some J-Pop I guess? How about 80s Japanese City Pop? I should burn some CDs somehow and have that for the car.

Later in the evening, I had a birthday in the family to celebrate, so I drank a little too much beer and ate a little too much cake. After I prepared my kid for sleep, I was in the mood to hit the sack myself.

But the accountability system, and my need to remain consistent, prevailed. And so I did manage to clock in about 45 minutes of active immersion during which I fished out five sentences.

Surely, if it wasn’t for me having to be accountable to you, Rine, I would have just gone to sleep. So yay for that!

I am hanging by a thread when it comes to active immersion. But as long as I stay with it, I’m giving a chance for the habit to develop.
