I stopped in frame 1664, 束 (bundle), for which I have no story yet. Still today, see if I'm gonna be able to go back to Genki (writing practice). I seriously need to do it because I go faster that way and because new vocabulary + kanji sticks a lot better. Tomorrow I'll do it for sure, also, I'll try to reach frame 1700. Forget tomorrow, if in the day after tomorrow on, if I do 35 frames a day I'll finish RTK in 9 days! ROOOOAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!
So far, believe me, I'm soooo thankful to RTK. Thank you Heisig! And not only to Heisig, RevTK's users are a great source for resources and advises. So my thanks go to them too.
By the way, While I'm at my grandma's I study through Smart.FM, and it's awesome for new vocabulary. I had already started it like a year ago and had some sentences/vocabulary/whatever you call it almost done. I'm in Core 2000, with 65%.
Btw, While I was writing this post I came up with a story for the previously mentioned frame.

Back to normal
Yup. I made more 30 frames today, I was going to learn some more but I didn't due to the fear I have from having to deal with lots of reviews and failed reviews (I start getting nervous and nothing goes well). But after this I'll "review early", in order to have less frames for tomorrow.
Today I stopped in frame 1633, 俳 (Haiku).
Now, off to more reviews. And I'll start making Genki exercises. By hand to memorize the characters better, because it'll be useful for Japanese class.

新型インフルエンザで初の死者
日本国内で初めて新型インフルエンザの感染者が見つかったのは５月１６日。
現在までの感染者は５,０００人を超えました。
しかし、幸い、これまで新型インフルエンザによる死者はいませんでした。
ところが、今週、国内で初めての死者が出ました。
８月１６日、５７歳の男性が新型インフルエンザで死亡しました。
この男性は腎臓の病気がありました。
また、１８日、７７歳の男性が死亡しました。
この男性も腎臓の病気がありました。
さらに、１９日、８１歳の女性が死亡しました。
この女性は心臓の病気がありました。
新型インフルエンザに感染しても、ほとんどの人は回復します。
でも、高齢者や幼児は注意が必要です。
また、インフルエンザは冬の病気だと思われていましたが、
新型インフルエンザは夏でも流行するようです。
ちなみに、現在一番感染者が多い所は沖縄県。
日本で一番暑い所です。

The rest of the reviews
Tough, tough.
I know what to do now. When there's hard, um...I don't know the name, it it primitives, I don't know...Well, when they're hard I shall do a maximum of 30 kanji, when they're easier I'll make more. It also depends on the stories, ir are hard or not.
I'll try to make the revies in the morning.
Oh, btw, I'm using Iknow when I'm at my grandma's (where I have no limits internet) and man! It's so much easier to learn vocabulary knowing how to write the kanji! I can't remember any now, but I'm sure that if I see the word I can read it. Oh! I learned that "arm" is read うで - 腕. And I already knew the kanji :)

Bad, bad day
Damn. I'm not succeding with reviews, therefore I'll not add kanji. I've failed so many frames! This always happens when I add more than 30 kanji. You see. Time wasting. 2 days wasted (considering that tomorow I'll spend all day with reviews. And damn, the last 40 frames are somewhat hard. Too many primitives. With some easier kanji in the middle of course, but generally speaking...
Also...my cousin's here and I only arrived home at 4PM (and I reviewed some frames in the morning - I left my house at about 9.45AM)...my cousin arrived one hour later, I'm now reviewing, I'm tired, but I might continue later (tough I doubt it). Hopefully tomorow will be better.

42 frames today
Because I wanted to arrive to frame 1600 :D. I actually arrived to frame 1602, 西 (west - にし), which I already knew.
I think I've been stressing myself a lot lately. With all this pressure of finishing RTK and Genkis and add sentences. It kinda sucks, because before RTK, I was using Genki full time and would be going faster. Now, my mind kinda thinks "just add Genki's sentences onto Anki, that'll be enough". Well I say, it isn't. Though I'll use Genki's sentences in Anki anyway.
A few weeks ago I didn't even think about AJATT. Now I do, and I'm happy for it, because it oppened my horizons. Now I have several methods for learning the language. Ok, only 2, but that's better than just one, and the best thing is that I can use both!
I'm always think of learning japanese ASAP, and it's true, it's what I want, it's working so far, but I feel something's missing. I feel that all this ASAP thing is actually making the process slower ...Nevermind, that's because I'm focusing on RTK. I can't wait to finish it and re-starting Genki again. FULLLL POWERRRRRR! And college will start by that time too (in the 3rd week of September) so my time to focus in japanese will be shorter, since I'll have to focus on mandarin, and general stuff like history, geography, politics.
Have I ever mentioned that the first year of my masters degree (included in the course) will be spent in China?
Tomorow I'll be out in the morning, but I hope to make all the day's goals anyway. I'm gonna wake up earlier to take a bath and if I have the time I'll review before going.

1560...
On that frame, so, 30 frames today. ANd I think I'm gonna restart doing Genki manual exercises, at least starting in lesson 12, but I still don't know, I don't want to loose much time, and that takes quite some time...but if it's for 30 minutes a day...what harm could it make?
Tuesday, August 25, 2009
...42 frames
And counting. See how many I'll learn in the next 15 minutes. After that I'll go play "Age of Mythology".
Tomorow I'll start adding Genki's lesson 12 sentences.
I'll tell you, today was so much easier to learn and review. Yesterday I must have been really tired.
EDIT: I'm going to finish lesson 39, only 3 frames left. Tough I know tomorow I'll not remember them as well as I wantes, I'm sure. So, 42 frames!

Reviews...only
I'm tired. Everyday, rushing to lear at leart new 30 frames, to do the reviews, to add sentences into Anki, to work out, to play DS/PSP a little at night. It's tiring. It's hard. It's a lotta pressure. I find myself at night thinking of stuff like "Oh, am I going to be the best? Will the teachers like me? I have to be the best"...
These are my vacations.
I'm still reviewing. I bought a videogame, "Age of Mythology", which I love (and I remember playing it a few years ago) and I intend to play a bit after finishing the reviews. Tomorrow I shall "re-start".
Okay, I've been reviewing for a lot of time, and I'm not being really successful. I'll stop now, I have 65 frames left. Of about 130 frames so far I failed 19 (so you know what I mean...) and have 46 to go. But I'm gonna stop. Today's not working.
See you tomorow.

10 frames, on purpose
Yeah. Because I have about 20 reviews for tomorow and I'll be spending all my morning (and probably part of the afternoon) in Aveiro.
I stopped in frame 1486, 坪 (two-mat area).
Now I'm gonna finish adding lesson 11's sentences onto Anki.
TOmorow, while I'm in the car I'll read something. Either on japanese wither on chinese politics.

1474 :)
Yay.
I stopped in frame 1474, 飲 (drink), which I already knew before starting RTK. I learned the last 10 kanji really quickly so I'm afraid they didn't stick. We'll see that tomorow. I was supposed to have added more sentences into Anki but I didn't, don't know why actually. I had no time, more likely. But tomorow I'll add for sure.
I know it, wait. I didn't add any sentences because I +-200 reviews and failed about 35 and had to "review" the stories again.
Today, a few minutes ago I reviewed "early" because before that I had 200 reviews for tomorow, which is a lot.
My mom rented "DragonBall Evolution" so that's 90 wasted minutes, I don't know at waht hour I'll see it. What matters is that i have to work so that I can see it with no commitments.
又明日ね・・・・

1442 after all!
And I didn't learn any more because I knew they were going to be more difficul since I did not know the meaning of the keywords.
It's a great mark for me. In 3 day I may hit the 3/4!!
So...47 frames today :) Awesome. And I added too quite some sentences into Anki. I'm adding lesson 11's sentences. Hopefully tomorow I'll reach 12th! ROARRRRR!
Now I'm gonna finish watching "What not to wear".
Hasta mañana!

+31 frames
I stopped in frame 1426 today, 興 (entertain) and finished lesson 37. I'm supposed to be finished by now, but I think I'll a few more frames. Even though is past midnight P: ! Oh, I refered to today but I finished "tomorow". Well, but this obviously count as the day 21/09 okay?
I'll make a new post if I do learn some more.

Damn
Today's frames are difficult to picture... I also added some sentences into Anki. Tomorow will be better. I'm tired of doing this for today...stopped in frame 1393. Finished lesson 36. I only started learning at night (like at 8.30PM) and the difficult stories also helped ):
22 frames today. But I know most of them didn't stick because I was tired while learning them.
Damn.
22 frames today. But I know most of them didn't stick because I was tired while learning them.
Damn.
30's tha numba!
Yup. More 30 today. I also added a few sentences in Anki. From Genki's lesson 9.
I finished in frame 1371, 緑 (Green). みどり!!! I already knew how to say, but didn't know the kanji.
I was thinkig this morning. Reflecting on japanese learning and I found out that kanji and vocabulary sticks better if you write them. Not much thinking was necessary because this is obvious, but I never had thought about it. As soon as I'll be about to finish RTK, I'll start mining sentences for real and writing each one time. I'll be doing that now, but I cannot waiste much time on it because I wanna finish RTK.
@ ftuehj9sd8ah
Thank you so much for that info! I'll try that Zotero stuff then! And whith your comment I found out that Tae Kim's grammar guide has a PDF version. Awesome. I might print some pages to practice, when I finish both Genkis (and they have tons of exercises).
I really aim to be the best, to have the best grades, to have a good job in the future.

I finished, today, in frame 維 (fiber). I have not much to say, I'm kinda tired today. In the morning I went to vut my hair so I lost some time for reviewing.
Well, see ya, I'll answer to the nice comment that you (to the person that sent it) posted ;)
See if I post some pics (2) tomorrow.

+30
And yesterday I did, indeed, learn the +10 kanji I had promised. Today, I learned 30. I'm going to the cinema within a half an hour so I should arrive home at around midnight. If I'm actually able to turn the laptop on and review I'll do it, but I seriously doubt it.
Today I stopped in frame 1310, 陛. I still haven't found the right story for this one though. So far I wrote: "Heighness (emperor of Japan) lives in a pinnacle, I live in ground. just imagine yourself comparing both". Oh, I started today in frame 1279 (tough yesterday I had already arrived to that frame, today I decided to copy the RevTK user's stories).
Only 732 frames to go!!!
Babye.

+ 20 kanji
But I aim to learn at least more 10 today. I did not "mined" the japanese news today. Well, I tried, but it appeared a new verb form that got me really angry because I didn't knew (nor I now) how to use. Yeah. I must mine Genki!
Tomorow, starting at 7PM I'll go to Gaia to the cinema, so I will not be able to learn anything. I intend to work out tomorrow (today I only rode my bike for like half an hour). Starting at 4 PM I'll work out till 5 or so and then wil have a bath and go to my mom's (because my uncle is picking us to the cinema there).
Hasta~

1247...
I though I'd do more. But oh the reviews. My brain in the past few days is not learning the way I wanted to. I think it just need some rest. I'm having more trouble in remembering some kanji.
Well, tomorow morning I'll take care of the reviews, afterwards, at my granda's I'll read a japanese new and in the afternoon I'll learn more frames. I also wanna work out, I still don't know when. I wanted one hour before starting the reviews. But in order to do it I'd have to wake up earlier (and I wanna sleep well today). I'll see it tomorow.
I finally learned the other kanji for 写真, with the heisig meaning of "copy". Wow, "copy" + "true" = Picture. I now realize it actually makes sense! For obvious reasons.
Oh and very important. I wanna mine Genki tomorow as well. I'll do my best to add sentences. If I start adding them at about 9PM and do it for like 1.30 hour I might quite some sentences.

No new frames
I didn't feel like learning the today. Because I had a bit more than 100 reviews and spent my afternoon doing them. Boooooring.
Nevertheless, I intend to learn a few today. If I can.
Oh tomorow I have more than 100 reviews again ;_;
Holy shit. In one month I'll know if I entered in the university, and I still haven0t mined Genki! I need to speed up everything!
I doubt I can finish Genki...I'll start adding less sentences. Only the ones from the examples and dialog. Ok, what I used to do before.
Oh, I'm going to learn more kanji throughout the next few hours. Speeding up ~
FOCUSSSSSS!

Yeah. I didn't finish the lesson. I'm kinda tired now. Well, at least I was able to make 50 frames today!
And sorry, forget about the speacial post, I took some pictures but I don't feel like putting them in my laptop. Oh I just want to turn this thing off.
More updates tomorrow, of course.

1202!!!
I got to frame 1202! I wanna finish this lesson, so I may indeed doing about 60 frames today! I have time! If I wanted I could make 100! Let's see. I learned already 40 frames today :D
The ones I learned now have to be reviewed, but now I'll go to ride my indoor byke.
See ya later. I'll update you! I may even make an interesting post out of my happyness. Lol!

1183, so far
Yeah, but I still haven't reviewed them and I should. After I arrive at my dad's I'll do that, and of course, learn as many as possible (and review them today).
At 6PM I'll ride my indoor byke for one hour, without any study (I wanna focus on the byke and on the speed I'll "use"). After that 'll have dinner, I'll go for a 30 minute walk and then will jump onto the byke for more 30 minutes, and finally I'll do some bodybuilding.
I edited the post with the useful links. I added a Kanji learning website. I'll add more, to every section if I find more.
Today I intend to reach frame 1200. That's so freakin' possible. Oh, I just noticed! If I indeed reach the frame 1200 I only have 842 frames left! I just got sooooo happy. I'll try to speed up to 50 a day then! It'll take me 16 days to finish if I'm able to actually do the 50/day.
頑張ってね。

30 kanji.
I don't know how my day will be tomorrow, so I won't promise anything. I mean, one thing's for sure, I'll learn more kanji.
FFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUCK. I need to finish Genki. Or by adding sentences or making the exercises. I'll do both anyway. I'm thinking of letting the exercices to practice for Japanese in college and just add the sentences and understand the grammar wihle learning vocabulary with its kanji, in context. I ought to speed up the process of adding sentences.

I found this website (CosCom) to be a great, an awesome, a brilliant, resource for improving your reading, listening and vocabulary skills.
If you go to it's "weather and News" button you'll have plenty of stuff to learn. I just learned that 地震 (じしん) means earthquake (and no, I still haven't learned the second kanji).

As I said, AWESOME. This is so great for improving my low japanese skills. With the help of the vocabulaty I was able to understand everything. And even learned a few new words. I'll read this a few more times today.
I'll add these sentences in Anki, after finishing adding Genki's.
Now. Onto learning more RTK frames (I was thinking of adding Genki's sentences into Anki, but I'd have to turn my laptop on and I don't feel like it).
EDIT! I started in frame 1131 and am now at frame 1145, with which I'm having some troubles to find a fitting story without using the エロ stories.

No kanji added
Yup. I mean, I added the ones I learned yesterday. But doay I learned nothing whatsoever. I tried, but had no time. And I'm getting more scared with the reviews for tomorrow.
My brain feels tired. I so need to make a schedule. Tomorow at my grandma's I'll add sentences into Anki. I'll ride my indoor byke while I review. In the afternoon and at night I'll add more kanji.
Fuck. College starts in late September and I still haven't finished Genki. I want to do it by mining sentences, but adding them takes so much time...

Learning from the book...33 kanji!
Yay. Yesterday I had a quarrel with my mother and she wouldn't let me use my laptop. I got really mad because it wouldn't be possible to see the stories on the internet. But I tried anyway. I stopped in frame 1129 because I couldn't come up with a story for the frame 1130.
I got a bit surprised because, starting at about 9.45PM and finishing at 11PM, I learned 33 kanji. I started on frame 1095 and finished in frame 1129.
Being used to see the stories on the internet kind of slowed me down because I tend to go to other sites while I'm learning (-_-). But yesterday I only had the book and my MP3 (Creative ZEN). I put 安室奈美恵 rockin' and started the night's journey. Well, I learned something yesterday. That I'm capable of learning kanji by myself, without the help of the RevTK user's stories. I had also a dictionary to help me. Lucky me it had the words I didn't know, otherwise I wouldn't have learned so many (like 33 is a lot lol!). Cool! I noticed that I already know all the kanji in Namie Amuro's name! I just have to write them in order not to forget them (ok, Anki'll do the job).
Creative ZEN (mine has 8GB + 2GB on an SD Card). It is able to play Music (duh), videos, Radio, Pictures (it does not take pictures lol) and is freackin' cool. Mine has a transparent protection case that makes it more ugly, because it gets bigger. But at least is protected against anything. I also use a little Sony camera's case. I protect my stuff too much.
It came with some average phones but I bought the Creative EP630 and they're great.
Boy, I'm so happy. I now start to see some kanji I knew months before but forgot them just because. But now with RTK they kinda stay and I start remembering their readings, even though I didn't used them for a long time. And of course, There are kanji I knew they exist but didn't know how to write them.

Thanks for the link! I'm gonna also make a list of cool japanese learning/learning process blogs ;)

only more 20 frames...
Total disapointment...
I have reviewed the ones I learned. I was doing it while Porto was playing (and still is).
See if tomorrow will be better.
I stopped in frame 1095 btw.

Going to a lunch
Just to let you know that I already worked out, and in the last 3o workout minutes I rode my indoor byke and review the kanji I had for today. That's great. In the late afternoon (or sooner, I hope) I'll learn more frames. See if today I can learn 30 instead of 20 like in the last 2 days.
Oh, I read a while ago in RevTK foruns saying that he/she never had any "burnouts" after reaching half way. I suppose that problem I had the other day (In 200 I failed about 60 frames) was, well... a burnout. Or did I just forget them? Or are they just synonyms? I don't know. I just hope it doen's happen again. I felt really bad. Really.
Now I'm going to take a bath, than I'm gonna prepare the stuff I will take with me to the family lunch (maybe my Nintendo DSi, my China politics/econmics book, cellphone, Camera, etc). Oh I wish I could already have an Android phone with Anki with SRS.
I might post a few (like 1 or 2 lol) pictures later. Of me in the lunch or of my japanese stuff.
FCPorto!!!!

And...more 20 frames
Remember. I'm stupid because I could do a whole lot more kanji. Today SLMerda (Sport lisboa e Benfica ;)) played against ACMilan (the biches from Lisbon won Dx) and I saw the game while I was learning. I learned like...10 kanji in that time lol.
Well, tomorow is FCPorto's time to play! I'll see it at home. So when it starts I'll stop everything I'm doing to see it.
Tomorrow I'll try to wake up at 6AM (ouch) to work out, have a bath and then go to my reviews. At 12 I'll go to a lunch at my uncle's and it might take a while, that's why I'll wake up early.
See you tomorrow.

+20 frames
Today I finished in 泥 (mud). Some kanji were a bit hard, but nothing that reviews can't solve. Tomorow I hope to learn more. I also want to add Genki's sentences in Anki. I totally have too.
After all, I'm not going to see FCPorto live. The game is too late and I'd rather see it on my bad.
I have no hot water at my dad's, so I don't know if tomorow I'll work out, if I continue without hot water I won't be able to.

Reviews
A bad day. I spent my afternoon reviewing and now, I'm reviewing again. I did nor add any kanji.
When I started reviewing today I had a little less than 200 frames to review. I failed about 60! It's the second time this happened to me. But I'm gonna have to get used to it. I wanna start adding 50 kanji per day. I can remember 30 the following day easily, but damn, 60?! I learned 56 two days ago and today I reviewed those and the ones for today. Because I did not review them yesterday (only started at night, and I can't do RTK at night. My brain doesn't work) I had all this work.
I'm tired of adding basic grammar in Anki. I'll start adding sentences from Genki's lesson 9, 10, 11 and 12. Ok, I'm in lesson 8 lol -_-'', forget it. I have to add them faster. College starts in late September and I want to have both Genki's finished before it starts.
Next Sunday I'm going to Aveiro (I live in a town from Aveiro, at about 40 km) to see the Supertaça. FCPorto wil play against Paços de Ferreira. I'll finally see HULK! LIVE! I'm still not sure if I'm going, but If I don't, I'll see the game on TV.
Sunda, at lunch, I'll go till my uncle's and my mom's side of the family will be there. So as you see, I won't have much time. I go there at 11.30 AM, have lunch, go to aveiro at like 3/4 PM, go see shops, have dinner and the game starts at 9.15 (I think). To be honest, I'd rather stay home and see the game in my bed lol. If it was in the afternoon...but at night...it's just too tiring. If I do go, I'll have to review in the morning. I wake up early, work out, have a bath and go to my reviews. I'll have to wake up really early (which was easy a few months ago, but it's hard now, dunno why, I used to get up at 6 without alarm clock, now I wake up with it, turn it off and stay in bed. When school starts, however, I doubt that'll happen.

Nada. Nothing.
Today I learned 10 kanji, but not as I was supposed to. I helped my dad in the afternoon and only started reviewing now. But at night I can't review, it's just not possible. At night is too hard. I'm so mad and sad!
Tomorrow morning I'll work out, have a bath and will learn kanji, of course. I'm so mad! This is so frustrating! It seems like I'm used to learning kanji and if I don't do it I spend the rest of the day sad. Just like any daily routine. I don't like to
Can't wait for tomorow...I'm so...down.

Half!! ROOOOOOAAARRRRRR!!!!
...Actually, I already reached to frame 1026 (傘). Frame 1024 is 座 (seat). It's a verb, 座る. I already knew it, but didn't know hoe to write the kanji. But now I do! ^.^
This is my 99th post -_-''
See if tomorow I get something speacial stuff to post.
Today my dad bought me these books. A trilogy from 鈴木光司 (Suzuki Koji). I will only read whithin a few months. The book I'm reading now is about China. Politics, society, economy, etc of China. Really fascinating. China grew so much in just a few decades! I will buy more books on politics/economy/etc, about China, Japan and possibly US and North Korea.
And this where my japanese stuff resides, not only here though (I'll show you the rest later). As you can see, I have some FullMetal Alchemist figures and 15 mangas. I was hooked in its mangas one year ago. I haven't bought any since then. I also started Naruto, but it's a long collection and I have no money nor time to buy all those mangas. In my japanese learning shelf you can see my books, they're not all there. Genki 1, Genki 1 Workbook and RTK are in my backpack, hence, always with me.
You can also see my asian movies collection (I'll post a better picture later) and Asia related books (japanese authors, mostly), some of my DragonBall figures and my Yugioh dragons. Oh, and the boxes of my Nintendo DSi, Nintendo Wii, 2 PSP's and even some digimon figures I almost forgot.
You will, from now on, start seeing more pictures here.

Frame 970! Getting closer and closer!
More 30 kanji today! :D
I've been adding 30 kanji a day, but I know I could double that number. It's so easy to do it fast!
I have to focus more on Genki...I have to add more sentences, damn it! College start in less than 2 months and I wanted to be fluent in the JLPT3 grammar by then! I want to be the best. In every subject! Mandarin, Japanese, History, aconomy, culture etc (of China and Japan).
Tomorow morning I'll work out and then have a bath. Afterwards I'll go to my grandma's and will add genki sentences there. I think my addiction to internet is getting lower, I still go to the usual forums but don't spend hours there.
See ya! Tomorow I'll hit frame 1000 no matter what!

Frame 940
Frame 1000 is getting closer. I did 35 kanji today, in about 2.30 hours. I could have learned more in this time but the TV wouldn't let me. Oh It would be so awesome if tomorow I could arrive to frame 1000! But then I'd have to writy random entries in the blog. Wait. WAIT! There's no way I can do 60 frames a day, so let's just forget it. If I do 30 tomorow and 30 the following day I'll arrive frame 1000 in 2 days. And that's not even half of RTK...but it's really close to be!
Oh, about the smartphones...forget about the 2 in the post below, because I will wait till the end of the year to buy one. I really like HTC Hero, but it's kinda slow, at least compared to iPhone. That said, I'll wait a few more months, Ankidroid with spaced repetition will be ready in a month or two so I would be buying the phone without being able to review the kanji I learned, unless I had already learn them all. I'm not gonna lie though, Ankidroid so far is good, in fact, VERY GOOD, for mining sentences and vocabulary.
Tomorow...I'll review, of course, I'll add more kanji. I feel now that I can imagine the stories a lot faster and I move from frame to frame a lot faster too!
I'll start taking some pictures of my life, to keep this interesting. Starting...TOMOROW! I hope.
又明日ね！
