Evening
- I had to spend 5 hours doing work on my apartment, which seriously killed off a lot of study time. I remember reading Prof. Arguelles recommending 9 hours study a day, actually it's in this thread. I wonder can anybody achieve this, if they also work a regular job.
Spanish
Gramatica A1-A2 Elemental (Anaya\ELE) (Completed 28 Started 29) (~1 hour)
- Just got to do some of this later on at night.

French
Listened to Assimil New French with Ease (Units 4-29)
- While I'm getting very familiar with the lessons, I'm not sure if I'm totally comfortable with the actual use of prepositions, such as "de", "du", etc.

Evening
- Didn't get as much done as hoped, as the weather halted my study plans.Fingers crossed I can get a proper sessions in this evening. I might start adding French back into my evening study sessions.
Spanish
Gramatica A1-A2 Elemental (Anaya\ELE) (Completed 29) (~1.5 hours)
- This was a very long unit, with one exercise taking nearly half an hour. It involved conjugating in a roundabout way ten verbs in the imperfect in all forms.

Morning
Hungarian
Read Assimil Hungarian with Ease (Units 12,13) (~25 minutes)
- Moved on a lesson this morning, which introduced a lot of new vocabulary. The complete lack of cognates means the lessons are moving very slowly.
Listened to Assimil Hungarian with Ease (Units 10-13) (~15 minutes)
- Got to cover 13 just about once.

French
Listened to Assimil New French with Ease (Units 4-29)
- I'll need to move on a track, and start speeding things up. Track 29 is the last track on CD1. Perhaps adding more French in the evenings might help.
