@ caleb: Yes, I'm still a teenager, although I'm heading towards the end of that spectrum now (already 18). Thanks for complementing my English skills, but I ought to be good in English after studying under the British school system. Personally, I don't think I'll reach my aim of four languages by the time I turn 20, because I lack discipline and strong motivation. Right now I am barely succeeding at not letting my German go rusty.

@ GoldFibre: Wow.. How long would the shipping take? A few weeks? I hope you like the books when you read them.. Your taste might be really different from mine you know. :/

It goes to the US first, which takes about 2 weeks. Then it gets forwarded to Kuwait, which usually takes another week.

I'm confident I will find at least one I enjoy. Thanks again for the recommendations!

TAC 2009 Day 169

I didn't have enough time for a 100-word day, so I did 31, just enough to put my SRS total at a nice, round 2,100. I'm now on page 102 / 239 of 나만큼 미쳐봐.

Also, I have a new favorite word: 연거푸

TAC 2009 Day 170

I did a 100-word day since it is the weekend here in Kuwait. Now I'm at page 123 / 239, more than halfway through. I also read Keroro 15 to page 60.

June 100-Word Days: 6 (Goal: 10)

Haha.. but just be aware that 연거푸 isn't one of those words that you use in daily conversatons. In my opinion, it would rank very low on both spoken word frequency and written word frequency lists.

Still, I think I'm going to toss it into my next conversation for fun!

Wow - I've recently become interested in Korean, and seriously pursuing the path of the polyglot. Your log is incredible. You have a great deal of dedication.
