I don't have much to post today. However, I made a progress video in French. (See below URL)

Second, I admire your willingness to struggle "in public" with producing the language.
Third, the more you listen to Dix pour cent (or really any French) the better your pronunciation will become.
Keep it up!
Haha, Vous êtes trop gentil. I can read and understand better than I produce. Since speaking is my main objective I am willing to accept these struggles...example: how I said "today is day 81 years" in my video. After I watched this, I thought, "what is wrong with me?" mdr. I am used to introducing myself when practicing speaking french by saying 'j'ai 30 ans'. In future, I will be more conscious of even this simple mistake. Also, you're so right about watching the media and helping pronunciation. I have found a couple times already that I couldn't understand how one person would say a word (which is the first time I hear it), but when I hear other forms of media or another speaker it resonates better with me and sinks in. This ultimately allows me to re-position the way I 'attempt' to say the word correctly.
