Started on Assimil 32, Anki:ed the words. I like this one, it feels real.
By the way, has anyone noticed the funny comments about women in this book?
Right, I have been trying to make up for my poor command of verb conjugations as well.
I want to get back to the FSI Easy Reader but aaaargh, time!

RUSSIAN

Ehum... No but seriously I am sure I did *something*, but what was it?

FRENCH

No shame in sight here! We had an online "seminar" today about the definition of literature an literary criticism, and since we ended up being 2 students + teacher and the other student's microphone didn't work, I had to do all the student talking. And I got the 60 pages of super stuck up literary criticism to read before it *yesterday evening*. I managed amazingly well though. I made references to perhaps 5 fictional works in my clumsy answers, and none were French. Hmm.
I need to read more and prepare clear outlines for two of the essays and one of the oral presentations.
Being a real student is slightly painful.

NORWEGIAN

I wrote a lang-8 post, and it was actually corrected immediately. The Norwegian population on lang-8 has increased!

Yes. It seems very misogynistic at times. Poor Mrs. Kiss gets a very hard time. I wondered whether the person writing the course, was a bitter man going through a messy divorce.

Well, so far I've only seen the two (self described as beautiful) girls with whom no one wanted to dance, who get interested on the same brown haired guy, who finally also get interested on them ...

And there is also the lovely Ibolya ...

I've finished Assimil 32 and wrote a short lang-8 post. I really enjoy trying to write in Hungarian, even though my scarce knowledge of vocabulary is very handicapping.

RUSSIAN

Finished listening to the long ATOR podcast about shopping for women's clothes and listened to another news podcast. Fell asleep during the latter though >_>
For article day I read almost all of this: http://ondryushka.livejournal.com/99547.html
Had a Skype convo and I felt like a retard!

Also messed up my left hand so I won't be writing much.

Pour le moment je peux faire la dictée en français à un logiciel qui écrit pour moi, mais je n'ai pas encore activé la partie anglaise du logiciel car j'ai l'impression que l'on n'est pas censé changer entre les deux et quand on change on perd toute son historique. Si vous trouvez maintenant des erreurs bizarres dans mes écrits français c'est parce que j'ai pas trop le temps de faire gaffe à ce qu'il écrit ce logiciel quand il se trompe d'homonymes etc.

Français
Beaucoup de travail ! Je n'ai fait presque que lire et écrire en français donc ça ne sert à rien de dire tout ce que je fais. J'ai finalement reçu mes livres pour ces cours et j'ai décidé d'écrire ma grande mémoire sur la langue française en Russie au XVIIIe XIXe siècle est j'ai donc que pas mal de choses à lire parce que ce n'est pas un sujet super facile. Heureusement, un de mes textes les plus importants est en russe, donc ça me fera un peu de russe aussi. Je vais écrire une mini mémoire sur Assia Djébar et je vais donc lire trois de ses livres.

Je pense que je vraiment rien fait dans les autres matières (langues), j'ai peut-être écouté un peu de russe mais c'est tout.

I did Assimil number 34. I feel like I may be able to finally find some more time for Hungarian!
I have added some words so the Anki count is at 528.

FRENCH

More reading of Ombre sultane, which is quite tricky to read. It's very poetic, or something, and very sad.

RUSSIAN

Only reading... I hope to write something later, but it will of course be by hand.
Anki is at 2322.
