Yeah, I'm a student. I never had a problem balancing school and language study until lately, but I've got it under control now. I'm starting slow to get myself used to studying again.

I knew it had been a while since your last post. I've not been very active here lately either, but I am still studying.

I haven't really studied, but I'll be picking it back up. Music and dramas are really the only thing keeping me in contact with both of my languages.

^ Well, I also mean that I haven't practiced speaking and writing since haha.
Lately I've just been reading more articles to improve my reading comprehension and learn new words. Gonna wait a little bit before I start trying to actively use Korean. I feel super rusty. For now I just plan on learning Japanese passively.

I'm back to translating articles and such and I'm hoping that'll help me improve and help me identify what I need to work on.

Translated an interview with Moon Chae Won. Yeah, I think doing 3-4 translations per week will be a great exercise for me.

Okay, I finished IRIS, watched Blue Salt/Hindsight and Grand Prix since the last time I posted. I bought a dictionary that has around 20,000 entries in it. I'm at the point where I really need to buckle down and learn grammar and vocab to get past where I'm at. So, I'm doing it old school, using paper flash cards. I've tried Anki and I hated it, but I've always like paper flash cards. I guess that's what happens when you believe everyone on the internet and forget to do what works for you.
