My overall goal for this year is to reach a C2 level in French.
I will go through Assimil French with Ease, Using French, Business French at an accelerated pace. If I watch tv, it can only be in French. If I read, it can only be in French. You get the idea. L-R method + Assimil + Shadowing + thinking in the language you are learning will = Fluency. Majority will be comprehensive input. Speaking will come naturally. Any other ideas?

French - Try to revive my speaking skills, which have gone to waste. Read at least three novels to learn more vocabulary. Continue to listen to it every morning on the radio. Watch more movies from France to improve my comprehension of the French accent (I really only understand Quebecois at this point).
Scottish Gaelic - Finish Teach Yourself:Gaelic by the fall, hopefully reach an intermediate level, and enroll in the intermediate level course offered at the university in my city. Try to find practice partners.
Other - Decide whether to continue learning German or to drop it due to a lack of progress/interest. Perhaps start a new language once I am more comfortable with Gaelic. Considering another Romance or Celtic language, Russian, maybe Latin?
