I've been busy this week with my new classes, so I stopped updating everyday.
I maintained my Memrise score for a 10 day streak, but just couldn't bring myself to continue over the weekend. I've been a bit busy with my classes. But, I plan to keep doing Memrise, particularly in the mornings before class if I can fit it in. (I did this most days this week).
In Japanese, we had another lecture. We're going to have a vocabulary test on Monday (tomorrow).
Also, I joined a "tadoku" or extensive reading club. We meet every Friday. We read in Japanese independently in the library for 1 hour, not using a dictionary. I really enjoyed the last meeting!! It really boosted my confidence and taught me a few words (through context). I also couldn't help but look up the words I could remember after the session was done. (I think this is fine (lol), and taught me some new words).
Progress report:
Japanese 312:
-0/3 Tobira chapters completed
-2/16 lecture homework pages completed
-0/7 vocabulary quizzes taken
-0/3 kanji quizzes taken
-0/2 chapter exams taken
-0/1 project paper completed
-0/1 project speech completed
-0/1 oral interview taken
-0/1 final exam taken
We did one "Swedish outside the classroom" assignment.
Progress report:
Swedish 102:
-0/6 Rivstart chapters completed
-0/6 chapter quizzes taken
-0/6 vocabulary quizzes taken
-0/2 verbal exams taken
-0/2 written exams taken
-1/10 Swedish outside the classroom, 3 of which must be 20 min Swedish conversations
I don't know if I can fit in much conversational stuff this quarter. But I will try to, we'll see where this goes. I've been pretty busy.
Time with Language Partners:
Korean: 5 1/2 hours
