Unit 11 was super easy until the conversation stimulus. For some reason it took me a big chunk of a day. The drills were a nice simple and easy, yet needed, review of possessives and number and gender agreements. On to Unit 12...

Nice and good luck. I am learning Spanish with Platiquemos as well. I find it motivating
reading about others who are learning the same language. I will follow your log.

Finished Unit 12, it was not very challenging at all. With work and the holidays though, it took me a while. I look forward to learning more of the complicated forms. Onto Unit 13.
Thanks ptrk, best of luck to you as well.

Unit 13 done. Not bad. FSI drills definitely make you brain dead. I study in 10-20 minute increments at most. Looking forward to the upcoming constructions and tenses, more clitic pronoun work too. I also figure that I might begin Mandarin with my old linguaphone tape course when I hit Unit 30 in Platiquemos. Veamos.

Finished unit 15 about 3 days ago on Friday. I took me about a month, and 14 took me about a month. My academic journey has intensified but I feel that I've figured out some good habits in managing my time. Onward goes the language study.

Hola, ¿qué tal? Espero que estés disfrutando de Platiquemos. Yo mismo lo hice, terminándolo hace .. no sé, ¿un año y medio? Lo empecé un poco después de irrationale. Es un curso maravilloso, aprendes rapidísimo. Ojalá hubiera más cursos así, me parece que los otros de FSI.. pues ni se pueden comparar con Platiquemos. Bueno, ¡te deseo mucha suerte y un montón de éxito mientras avanzas por mi curso favorito!

Muchas gracias Crush. Todavia, no se sufficiente para entender todas las cosas que dice. Ahora, estudio muy despacio por que tengo un trabajo nuevo y escuela. Ademas esto, todavia estudio un poco todas las semanas. No puedo esperar para entender mas. Estoy contente para saber que te parece fantastico este curso. Otra ves, muchas gracias.
Te deseo suerte con tu estudio,
y lo siento mi espanol horrible.
Bobby

Wow, great log! I can't believe I've never seen it until today =) I was also really motivated by irrationale's log...
amazing progress, and much like yours I find it really motivating to following along. I had a similar "start" to you - I
did Pimsleur I and part of II, then moved to Platiquemos which I'm loving so far, although only at Unit 4.
Keep up the good work!
