Doing an hour of Japanese (30 min study/vocab, 30 min listening practise), hour of Spanish (30 min study/vocab, 30 min listening practise), hour of Irish (full study), 30+ mins of maths and reading at least a chapter of a random book a day.
Sometimes I get really pooped though and can only manage 30 mins of JP then 30 mins of SP.
I woke up not too long ago but my spoons are already depleted from switching operating systems due to Windows constantly fucking with me, so there’s that.
Also have new study software from Steam, called “Chill With You Lo-Fi Story”, it’s not better for studying than Spirit City Lofi Sessions, but it has a story that progresses with more study, so I’m sticking with it for now until I can see the end of this girls journey.
I’d try Spirit City: Lofi Sessions, Ithya: Magic Studies and Chill With You Lo-Fi Story in waves and not altogether. There’s probably a whole other bunch of software out there on Steam that’s similar but different, but these are the only ones I’ve managed to try fully.
The software on Linux is a bit buggy, the sounds on my machine go f-ways when I run Chill With You Lo-Fi Story, but only switched today so it’s possible it’s a me-issue.
Also the free route is still an option if you’re okay with using just youtube videos, the Lofi Girl channel has a pomodoro lofi video that I used to use before getting into the software side. I bought a bunch of these knowing I could just get free pomodoro tools elsewhere because I wanted the extra comfort/coziness that the games/apps provide.
Like for instance, this Lo-Fi Story game has the worst set of tools for studying compared to the other 2, but I’m still using it more because of the plot built into the game. And I guess the gated unlocks also keeps me going.
There was a Black Friday sale on not too long ago which is why I picked up the latest one, but the Winter Sale should be on soon if you’d rather wait to buy them then. They’re quite cheap at around 7 euro each (roughly) when on sale.
Dude, I just heard of Chill With You (from Denfaminicogamer actually) and I’m itching to try it out. Probably tomorrow. I had never seen the concept before, are there more decent ones other than Spirit City?
And yeah, I certainly also feel it when I’ve got other processes tugging on me during the week. Takes a toll.

Might have missed this last week but glad you got back into Irish!
Ad yeah… also had some issues when I made a OS switch from windows at home. Takes a bit to find your new workflows and getting cozy with your new OS.
I still haven’t given Steam study software a try, but damn I want to based on all your recommendations.
