Not did much for the last few days until today. Did another unit on the A1 Busuu course about jobs. Completed a writing exercise on what I wanted to do. It was very similar to an entry in my [currently abandoned] journal on lang-8 just after I finished my exams at the start of this month except this time it was much easier to construct it and I didn't make any mistakes =]. I like it when you can see proof if yourself advancing and I had one of they moments after completing that exercise. Spent a large part of the day listening to songs in English whilst reading the Portuguese translations of the lyrics and copied down around 100 new words into my anki deck.
Progress 18/06/2010 [Since I forgot to add it in]
Read Jack and the beanstalk in Portuguese which was really nice as I don't think I'd even read it before in English. Found a few good songs in Portuguese and started translating them into English. Also found my first Korean Rock song [which I have been looking for for a good 2 years now] which makes me tempted to start learning Korean when it comes up on LingQ. However I'm trying to dissuade myself since I tried to learn Korean way back in 2007/2008 and failed miserably plus materials for learning Korean are very scarse, more so than Portuguese which frustrates me to no end.
