Weekly Review | 30日四月2024年
今週はいいですね!
Had a really good week! As of today, I've been studying consistently again for 1 month. 🎉🎉that means this blog is a month old now too! yippee!
I'm so close to 100 hours of total immersion logged (in total, not this month.) and reflecting on my learning journey so far is interesting!! I'm starting to notice a real increase in improvement. so without further ado, lets go over my week!
Logged 10 hours of immersion this week. most of that is finishing Super Cub and starting Yuru Camp. the rest is playing Animal Crossing almost daily, and bits of youtube.
In total, i logged 22 hours of immersion this month. (most of that was done this week, lol.) my total at the end of the month is 94 hours!
I'm starting to notice a real improvement in my comprehension. I'm getting about 40%-50% of the words i encounter in easier media, and anything i don't understand i mouse over with yomichan, or can pick up with context.
Of course, I finished Super Cub, and started watching Yuru Camp. I'm about half way through it right now, so I'm expecting to finish it this week and write a review of it next week. look forward to that!
I'm still kind of struggling with finding shows to watch for immersion. I think i need to start making a watch list and pre-downloading subs for ASB player so i can make watching a show easier. (really wish ASB worked on firefox, lol)
Also still haven't found a manga to read. どうぶつの森 is basically all the reading practice I'm getting rn and that's all well and good, but i need to branch out more.
Overall a really good week. I was nervous when i came back to learning consistently again, but having a blog to talk about it i think is keeping me more accountable. I'm proud of myself for such a great return to language learning!
Goals for next month:
25 total hours of immersion. with such a successful return to immersion learning, i really want to keep the ball rolling and commit to my studies. after all, I'm really enjoying myself!
Watch at least 3 new shows. when i started immersing i mostly watched the Pokemon anime and Cardcaptor. they're great shows, but i think too long. i want to watch a couple shorter anime i can watch inbetween CCS and pokemon. (maybe watch something a little harder? we'll see.)
seriously, read some manga! I will look into some shoujo series with furigana, maybe try some of the beginner recommended manga?
have 500 cards seen in anki. Im currently at 400ish, but im only doing 3 new cards a day rn. but i want to bump that number up, so hopefully i will learn new vocab faster.
Whew. if youve read all this, thanks! I am looking forward to my continued studies. ^^ until next time! またね!
