Thanks. I have no idea how long it takes the average person to learn Hiragana. If it only takes me a couple of weeks to learn it, fantastic. Then I can move on to the next stage of learning Japanese. I’d just rather make small goals to work toward than large, vague ones that I might not achieve. Thank you for the links.

My goal for 2013 is to learn Hiragana. I’d gotten a good start last year, made my own flash cards, and had about a third to half of the characters memorized. And then the holidays happened, and I backslid terribly. Back on the Hiragana wagon! Just signed up for the lifetime Textfugu, very excited about this.
