Habits

This is kind of an extension to the New Year's Resolutions since I'm struggling to actually adhere to them ha ha (go figure =P)

As noted previously, my stumbling upon FSI helped remotivate me to continue my foreign language studies. Although I'm starting again from the beginning, I don't mind too much. I've managed to get a copy of Pimsleur's Japanese 1, and I have the first book of Heisig and a good set of flash cards (I have to print them out though =/) so I'm all set to go. I've also found the blog of a guy in Brazil who did something similar and it seems he managed to get pretty fluent over the course of a year. I hope to be able to do the same so I'll go ahead and emulate his method, which basically involves an online progress report. He started doing it in a forum and eventually moved it to a blog because it was pointless to keep bumping the thread when no one was reading. For the few people that actually read my blog... I can set up a second blog if you so desire because its unlikely I'll write anything meaningful.

Like all my other self-motivated habits, we'll see if this one actually sticks. Who knows... maybe I'll actually write meaningful things along with the progress reports.

Here's where I stand this morning:
