You don't mind the outdated orthography?

I have been consistent for years on a Mon-Fri basis, but weekends are so unpredictable. I really don't know what to choose.

@Serpent You’ve lost me there: I suppose it’s a Harry Potter allusion, but I’ve read only the first two novels (I haven’t seen the movies) so I’m lost. I really should make up my mind and read the final five (?) books: I know they are available in my local library, but somehow I never feel like checking them out. Will the Super Challenge motivate me enough? We’ll see.
@Expugnator Yes, you’re probably the one who less needs a consistency challenge, as you’re so amazing at maintaining your schedules. But not everybody is as good as you at “a little every day” philosophy. You are quite free to choose what you prefer: but if your weekends are so unpredictable maybe you’d better opt for something quick and simple that you can easily sneak into the odd free moments on Saturday and Sunday. 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

We once had a thread where people were asked to put themselves in one of the four Hogwarts houses. Without committing myself to that extent I would just like to state that I would like to have as much hardcore study capacity as miss Hermione Granger.
But even she had to borrow a magical watch from a teacher (McGonagall) when she and Harry P needed to be in two places simultaneously to sort out some of the intricate problems excogitated by the mischievous madam Rawling.

May Challenge: done!
I’ve watched one Wallander episode every day for a week. Since I didn’t have seven episodes on my DVR, I ended up re-watching a couple of the episodes I did have and I can only recommend this strategy for dealing with films and TV-series until one reaches the intermediate/upper-intermediate stage. Even if it is quite time demanding and probably not worth it in terms of time invested to results obtained when you’re already proficient, at earlier stages it’s a great way to improve both listening comprehension and facilitate vocabulary building. I think it wise that the Super Challenge allows repeated reading and watching of the same materials, because it’s probably the best way to actually improve considering we’re talking of extensive, passive activities. Has anyone decided on their chosen activity for the May Challenge yet? I bet choosing the activity is the hardest part of the challenge! ;-) 1 person has voted this message useful |
