    Today I reached 500 unique sentences in my deck. Hurray! All collected from various sources, some from native materials and some from study materials. What’s the goal? 10,000? I have a ways to go…

    Brian, I hope you’re able to find more reasons for learning Japanese! :)

    I’m like you; a two week visit isn’t sufficient, though I do believe it’s better than nothing! I hope you get the opportunity to experience every day life in Japan.

    Best wishes on your studies!

    I think it’s awesome that you guys work on subs. Do you work from a transcript or is it all audio?

    Today I listened to two jpod101 lessons, zeroed out my Anki cards again (feels great to be caught up!), and added some additional sentences to my sentence deck. I should reach 500 sentences sometime next week.

    Hi Tom! Welcome! How cool that you get to study abroad next spring. That’s great motivation to commit to a study program! Textfugu will get you far in that time if you stick with it. :)

    Good luck with your studies!

    Thank you, Mr. Wikipedia. ;)  Now can you explain in plain English what that means?

    Missing – are you still working on a sentences deck?

    I finally caught up. Anki reviews due – 0. Hurray!! Hopefully I can keep my Anki reviews to under 15 minutes a day…

    I’m not sure what that entails, but it sounds fancy. ;)

    I have emailed Koichi to ask.

    In the meantime, the picture (even if appropriate in the off-topic section), is not appropriate in the main forum for learning Japanese. Any Japanese learner, looking at a thread in a forum for learning the Japanese language, should not be exposed to pictures taken up a girl’s skirt.

    Welcome to the forums. :) Thanks for sharing a bit of your story. I found the links you mentioned between Japan and Zuni very intriguing. If you feel like sharing more, I’d love to read about it!

    Again, welcome, and good luck with your studies!

    Underwear is not PG. :)  Let me ask Koichi for some clarification.

    Yeah, we wracked up quite a bit in student loans. We pay almost $350 a month and that’s just the minimum payment. It’ll take 20 years to pay off at that rate. Once we buy some, ahem, furniture for this new place of ours, we’ll be throwing money at the student loans to make them go away.

    Thanks for saying I’m inspiring! I love studying and hope that everyone can find an enjoyment in it. :)

    83 cards left. Maybe I’ll push to finish tomorrow instead of Friday. We’ll see how many new reviews I end up with tomorrow.

    Koichi,

    I think everything looks great! The first time I logged in, the font seemed like someone had grabbed it and squished it all together. But now it looks perfect.

    Looking forward to seeing any additional changes and those new lessons! ;)
