Pre- First French Class and Post

Talk about feeling bad before the first day of school. Not me.

Jk jk

What I meant to say is that every quarter I get nervous. Very Nervous. Yes, I meant it with a capital letter.

However, these fears are of course only momentary and after about a week, things settle down.

Before I take my first French class, I wanted to write down some goals and how I feel coming into this.

I want to document my efforts with learning French much more intensively compared to how I documented my Japanese learning journey. I learned a lot about how I learn languages best when I was studying Japanese so hopefully I can use some of those skills with learning French hoho.

Anyway, this isn't really anything; this is more of a brain dump. So, I'll update later. Good luck future me.



So I just finished my first class!

Yay!

Well, to be honest it was more about going over Cengage which is the online program we're gonna use for class. However, I think I appreciate going over all this technology stuff because it's definitely hard for me to adjust.

I'm excited for future blog posts!

Coming back to this blog! Updates!

This is pretty weird but it's been a longgg time since I posted. Well, to be honest, I only posted once which is pretty terrible. However, I am glad to say that my Japanese studies did not come to a sudden stop like my blogging did. I ended up taking my first Japanese classes in university about a month after my first blog post. Safe to say, the hours of studying I did and all the things I learned (with great difficulty) was covered in like the first hour of class and I was pretty much in the same boat as everyone else.  I took the first three beginning classes of Japanese. In UCLA, the Japanese courses are labelled J1, J2, J3 for the beginning Japanese classes. Then it moves on to J4, J5, and J6 which are the intermediate courses. They only offer each course specifically once each school year. So I did J1, 2, and 3 my Fall, Winter, and Spring quarters respectively. However, I decided to take a summer intensive which was a 9 week course where J4, 5, and 6 were all combined...

Another Year, Another Post

So that last post was in 2019 and here we are March 2020. It's safe to say that there are so many changes. Man, I really need to get more consistent about this blogging thing if it's ever going to work. It was actually really fun to read my two tiny posts. I've forgotten that I had this blog which is quite unfortunate. I wish I documented more of my journey studying Japanese. HOWEVER, I think I will be documenting my new French learning journey in more depth (hopefully). Anyway, before I dive into that, a little recap about how my Japanese studies have been going is quite necessary and then I'll explain what the French nonsense is about. I know, it's quite random but bear with me. I last posted back in sophomore year fall quarter. I had just finished J100A with a hard-won C+ and I took J100B with the same professor and somehow scraped by with a B-. Then I finished Sophomore year with J100C with a different professor and got an A. Technically at this point, I...
