I'm happy with last weeks progress, i'm enjoying FiA even though at points it's difficult, however my
gf is really helpful for anything I need to clarify. Sadly I will be at the end of the active wave of NFWE
shortly, ah well all good things must come to an end.
So far the one day of speaking French per week with my gf has been going well, so well we're going
to increase it to two!
Assimil: Lesson 96 active.
FiA: Lesson 8.19
Week 22 8th - 14th June
Min time spent: 30 minutes 27 seconds.
Max time spent: 2 hours 39 minutes and 28 seconds.
Average time per day: 1 hour 13 minutes 15 seconds.
Weekly total: 6 hours 6 minutes 15 seconds.
Yearly total so far: 120 hours 30 minutes 43 seconds.

Wow, you've blown through Assimil since you began this log! I'm excited to finally get back to studying French in the next week or so. Although I've scanned through all the posts in your log, I'm going to have to study what you've done more closely to see if I want to model after you a little bit. I'll be reviewing lesson 22, and then continuing on from lesson 23 in Assimil.
Anyways, keep up your progress!

Thanks SladeWilson, yeah time flies when you're having fun :).
I recently got Netflix and configured it so I get the French Netflix, which is great because I can watch many
English shows with accurate subtitles or even better watch French films with French subtitles. I think this will
be great for helping me improve my French.

Ooh, this is one of the challenges on my list, after I manage to hook up an ebook reader to French online stores. :-)

I'm curious, is this relatively easy to set up Meyers?

I'm really happy with last week, I finished up Assimil NFWE, which I feel like I've been doing forever,
and finally finished up lesson 8 on FiA. I've been watching a lot of context on Netflix which I'm finding
great so far and I'm stepping up my reading of native materials.
Assimil NFWE: Finished.
FiA: Lesson 9

Min time spent: 15 minutes
Max time spent: 1 hours 10 minutes 57 seconds.
