I spend a lot of my language learning time watching Japanese videos on YouTube. Right now, I try to listen and watch a total of 2+ hours a day. What’s hard I’ve noticed is that when watching videos like of native speakers interviewing foreigners, I get sad and wonder what the heck am I doing? I’ll never speak as well as them! Embarrassment kind of falls on me and then I have to work on telling myself everything is fine. All of those speakers started off quite bad, but they put in a lot of time and now look where they are. So, keeping a positive mindset is really important I’m finding. Don’t be a sad cat all of the time watching YouTube! :)
Guess that’s all for today. I’m still trying to sort out how I’m going to use this new blog of mine. Maybe I’ll do little, short posts like a journal and then maybe longer posts when I have more details. Who knows! I guess I should just use this and not over think it. またね!
