MISSION: Spend 3 days talking only in French till August 31st (B2 level) | Page 3 | My language mission and my log | Forum

I think I didn't do today anything… there might be some changes coming to my mission soon though. Stay tuned

Tomorrow I work and I will see war plains Rafale, flying above Paris… last week when they were training it was scary and very sad… I imagined being in a country which is being bombarded in order to fight terrorism or in the name of the god democracy… La France Forte… C'est maintenant!

I didn't learn anything today.

Tomorrow I will incorporate my new plan of learning. I will let you know how it works and how my personal situation has changed

I didn't do well today, because I didn't follow the plan… I just reviewed old words on memrise.

I decided to quit my job and spend one month traveling with my girlfriend, but unfortunately it didn't work out and we are staying in Paris. If I'm not gonna travel for now, I still want to have some interesting, challenging and developing life experience. My plan is to learn French full time for the next month! It's gonna be very hard as I don't have developed discipline and right habits supporting that mission, but I will not accept failure from the stand point of attitude. I want to prove myself that I really can make my goals and dream become reality.

My plan is:

9:30 get up, drinking 1l of water, doing push ups and squeezing my gripper,  packing learning materials and food into my backpack, going out to Centre Pompidou

- I don't read, listen or speak in English at all, especially with my girlfriend untill 22:00

- I do my minimum daily goal of: 3 lessons of Assimil and Blondynka na Językach, 15 words on memrise. After I finish that I can still do only activities that involve learning French like talking to people on street, going on meetings with French speakers or keep learning from my materials.

22:00 writing post on this forum about my progress. English possible zone

22:30 working on some personal development material

23:00 I turn off my laptop and do stretching exercises.

23:50 I go to bed

If I will feel like I'm burning out I might take 1 day off from learning. I will probably be tweaking the plan as I get more comfortable with the schedule to make it better and because I would like to incorporate some aerobic exercise like running, swimming or biking on a longer distance than to Pompidou

My phone is set to remind me about my schedule tomorrow. This night I will not sleep so much, but it shouldn't be that bad and I will catch up tomorrow.

It's gonna be a big challenge. I'm excited!

A demain!

What I did:

- 2 lessons of Assimil

- I finished the lesson of Blondynka na Językach and did also another one.

I woke up late today, and spoke with my girlfriend only for 50% of the time in French. We were getting annoyed at times, but I'm not gonna stop and repeating "Common?" when she talks to me in English

I might also send her to Pompidou and stay at home myself, so that I could repeat loud sentences in French.

A demain!

Bottom…

I found a very interesting job offer on Craiglist and I decided that instead of sending a plain resume, I will create a Prezi presentation. I just practiced old words on Memrise today.

I want to compensate to my girlfriend for the time she spent today helping me with it so I will take her somewhere out, but first I go to Pompidou!

Merci beaucoup, c'est tres gentil

What I did:

- lesson 40, 41 and 42 of Assimil

- practiced old words on memrise

Tomorrow I talk with my family at 10 a.m. so I will be awake fairly early and my girlfriend starts her job as well, so I will not be distracted at home to learn. At least by her.

What I did:

- 3 lessons of Blondynka na Językach

- practiced old words on memrise

What I did:

- 15 words on memrise
