Prespective on how do you learn new words

so im currentely doing my b2-c1 course ( on paper , im not as confiden or as fluent in speaking or writing )

and we have this book , Vielfalt . which in my intensive course that is every day monday to friday we do around one whole chapter that has its own word list and can be up to 80 words .

So ive been at it for around 9 months since my first course in A1 , and ive been trying to get on my voacb and i end up doing a very big amount of new words a day as flashcards (most days 60ish new if i do two new decks then double , following days mostly are reverse of the same flashcards ) . and of course also reviews of older cards.

some latch strong and I can use as I write , some dont but I can recognise as I read them and get frustrated not being able to just come up with them natrually

soon my final exam is coming and at the last review exam my writing got 8 points .
I find myself drowning in voacb and trying to use complexer words and have not as much time ( and brain juice ) to practice my writing as much while also pushing it down as i feel bad at it

Im here to ask what were/are your Ways of doing it and under what circumstances it was and try balance myself out or try out new ways. ....

as context right now the only thing i study is German , but i also have work and other day to day life chores so time is tight anyhow. My day to day is 8:30-10:30/11 flachcards that are built like this:

|schön|reden – redete schön – hat schöngeredet Er redet die Situation immer schön, auch wenn es schlecht läuft.|etwas besser darstellen, als es wirklich ist; beschönigen (to sugarcoat )| |:-|:-|

then i try to cram new grammer and writing , then i have my lesson and at night i work.

if anyone wants to ask whats the rush - family pressure and other psychological problems that make me feel i have no room to fail.

Thanks for any suggestions and personal expriences .

I forgot ... I FORGOT

Finally , after about 3 or so years of being done with the game that was one if not the best experiences I had , I forgot the story, the mechanics, the why and how it happend .

I'd say its a mix of moving to a new country ,a new job ,a lot of studying and new hobby's that made me just forget, as I had far less time to actively engage in it as I did before .

Oh how i missed going into the watcher .

The black stained needle mystery Update

In my Last post which many people discussed possible solutions to a needle i posted that looked half black , supposedly because of black primer that dried on it .

As an update I got a lacquer thinner which honestly didn't seem to do much and also a ultrasonic cleaner .

The biggest thing though, I got a brand new needle to compare how it looks , and you can judge it as well but it looks almost identical .

What do you guys think? Im no expert , and i wasted a good sum on cleaning solvents, now I just think it's the way it looks from certain angles .

EDIT These are the 0.5 needles for the mobous airbrush from gaalehri

Kaleido black primer dries really hard on needle

I have two needles , a 0.3 and 0.5 which after one use got black primer stuck on them just like the photos ( which is 0.5 mobouys TG )

Now I know i cleaned in between switching colors and after usage, might be user error and I didn't scrub enough but I cleaned with the brands Airbrush cleaner and IPA 99%

I soaked in IPA as well and didn't work as well

I ordered some stronger solvents and another needle ( 0.3 is not in stock anywhere....) , hope it'll work out.

But my question to the gaalehri support team here , should I really add retarder thinner to your ready to use primers ? Right now it seems like yes but I wanted to get opinions from official channels

Is something wrong with my needle ?

It could be the lighting or my eyes , but the top half of it looks darker or black , when I put it really close to the light it looks the samish.

I only used it twice , and in today's session i just matt coated stuff
