Throughout the entire learning process, I did not attend any traditional courses. At the beginning, I followed the A1 and A2 online courses from NLF Academy | Real French Classes - YouTube, using the Edito textbook. I spent two months completing A1. Later, because of the time pressure, after halfway through A2, I abandoned the courses and switched to self-study and exam preparation. During this process, I intensively used Anki to learn grammar, vocabulary, expressions, and other language knowledge, with the maximum number of cards reviewed per day reaching over 500. Although the process was very painful, the results were very significant.

This post will describe how I used Anki for learning language for exam and hobby.

我在整个学习过程中没有上过传统意义上的课程。在入门阶段入门的课程我使用了NLF Academy | Real French Classes - YouTube的A1和A2网课，使用的是Edito教材。我用了两个月时间学完了A1。之后又因为急于赶进度，在A2学到一半之后即放弃了跟随课程，转而自学及备考。在这个过程中，我高强度使用Anki学习语法，单词，语句，等语言知识点，最多的时候每天复习的卡片数量达到了500+之多。虽然过程非常痛苦，但是效果也非常显著。

本文将讲述我如何使用Anki以应试和兴趣目的学习语言的过程。

This article serves only as a sharing of personal experience and does not constitute legal advice. My application took place in mid-2025, and the information may become inaccurate over time. If you have questions regarding your application, please refer to the official websites of relevant departments or hire a Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultant (RCIC) for consultation.

Express Entry (EE) is the most mainstream, convenient, and efficient pathway for skilled immigration to Canada. The way it works is to score applicants via the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS). The main metrics include age, education, language, and work experience. Typically, every two weeks, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) conducts draws. A cutoff score is determined based on the score of candidates in the pool and the number of profiles they intend to invite. Applicants meeting this score receive an Invitation to Apply (ITA) and submit their application. Most EE applications receive a decision within 6 months.

Express Entry（下文简称EE）是加拿大的最主流且方便快捷的技术移民途径。Express Entry的运作方式是为申请者通过Comprehensive Ranking System(CRS)打分，打分的主要指标包括年龄，学历，语言，工作经验等。通常每两周，加拿大移民、难民和公民部(Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada, IRCC)会执行若干项目的抽取(draw)，每次抽取会根据池中人数和邀请人数确定一个分数线，达到分数线的申请者会收到邀请(Invitation to Apply, ITA)并提交申请。Express Entry的绝大多数申请会在6个月内收到决定。

在绝大多数国家，贴签通常是通过当地的VFS签证中心，美国的申请者一部分会被要求通过VFS贴签，也有可能会被要求直接寄到渥太华的Case Processing Center(CPCO)。如果你的贴签信指示你通过VFS/VAC贴签，则本文不适用。请仔细阅读贴签信中的每一句话，如果贴签信中的指示和本文冲突，以贴签信为准。

I had considered buying the Synology DS925+, but Synology's new 2025 models introduced a restriction that only allows the use of their own branded hard drives. So Synology was ruled out as an option. I also considered the UGREEN NAS and install a third-party OS. However, the UGREEN NASync DXP4800 Plus is priced at $699, and even with a Prime Day discount, it's still $519, which isn't a great value. After some research, I decided to build a NAS myself.

我本考虑购买群晖的DS925+，然而群晖在2025年新品中加入了仅支持群晖自家硬盘的限制，于是我直接排除了群晖的选项。我也考虑过购买绿联NAS并安装第三方系统，但是绿联UGREEN NASync DXP4800 Plus原价$699，即使是Prime Day打折也需要$519，性价比并不高。经过研究之后，我决定自己组装一台NAS。

There are all kinds of automotive paints on the market, the marketing strategies of the manufacturers make it even more complicated. Beginners can easily get confused and choose the wrong product or the wrong method of application. Furthermore, unlike mechanical repairs, painting doesn't have a strict procedure to follow, each tutorial on the web has it's own style. The material, the application process, and even environment can make the outcome drastically different.

In this article, I will use the fender on my Miata as an example, to illustrate the basics of paint, the different types of paint, application process and common problems. This article will focus on using aerosol cans and common household tools to achieve the best results possible. Professional application and equipments are not in the scope of this article.

This article is based on my personal research and experience, and is not a professional tutorial, the content may be mistaken. When using paint product with toxic contents, please use proper personal protective equipment (PPE) and follow the guidelines of recycling and disposal.

市面上有各种类型和品牌的油漆可供选择，再加上厂商的市场营销策略，让类目更加纷繁复杂。这让新手很容易迷失，造成选用了错误的产品或错误的施工方式。另外，喷漆不像修理机械那样有严格的步骤和流程可供参考，网络上的教程都有自己的风格和习惯。选用的材料，施工工艺，甚至环境都会造成结果的不同。

本文中我将以我的Miata的前翼子板为例，来讲述汽车油漆的基础知识，油漆的分类和选择，施工过程，以及常见问题。本文会集中在使用喷漆罐(Aerosol)和家用工具和来实现尽可能好的效果。专业设备和材料不在本文的讨论范围内。

本文是基于个人经验的总结，而非专业教学，内容可能会存在错误。在使用含有有毒有害物质的涂料时，请注意个人保护以及遵循适当的废弃或回收流程。
