Hi Dylan!

It is nice to meet you. I’m doing well, how are you today?

How long have you been studying Japanese? I starting learning Japanese a month and a half ago. However, my first two weeks I only practiced reading and writing hiragana and katakana. Self-studying a textbook the past month only confused and frustrated me, so I decided to start over. I only started to use Textfugu today. Are you using studying materials besides Textfugu?

I’m feeling great today, I started trying at the language about a year ago when I started practicing Hiragana, Katakana and a few grammar aspects of the language using an iPhone app that really helped and explained some things. I burnt out a little back then though so I only got to around half of Katakana and a few sentence builders. I also decided to start over using Textfugu and it’s been pretty great so far, it’s really good at keeping things interesting. Nice to meet you!
