I managed to make it through the Monday's kanji list and make a few runs through the Declan software that I haven't used in forever. It's actually incredibly helpful to use the application because I've been practicing the kanji through rote memorization only. Meaning I can write them and occasional I can recognize them, but I don't have a clear understanding of their reading or the different meanings they have. That probably doesn't make a lot of sense if you haven't studied an Asian language but if you've ever played around with learning kanji you should know how much of a mess it is trying to memorize everything.
I picked up the first two seasons of Battlestar Galactica, the newer series that they released not the old one. I kind of liked it when Justin introduced me to it back in the day but I dropped in somewhere around the middle of Season 2 and never really got caught up on what the deuce was going on. It's pretty cool just to sit back and do a movie marathon but I feel like I could have gotten a lot more studying done if I watched less tv. Hmm, how to work around that. I guess I could go back to watching Japanese tv and dramas so I can get the listening practice. That would count a little bit in my book.
