short Japanese drama only online

There is a 5 episode drama in Japanese available only online called Oh!myPROPOSE.  Is there someone willing to watch this and leave a comment about it here?

I'm still watching my Chinese dramas and have been working 40 hours a week since April. I now have over 1556 hours of the TV method for Chinese logged. Looks like I'll make it to 2000 before the end of the year for sure! Although, my current job will only continue until the middle of September. Since I am working, I'm putting all of my free time into watching the Chinese dramas. In fact, it seems I am able to watch more than when I wasn't working. Last month I logged 150 hours which is the most hours in a month since I started. Maybe this month will be more since there is an extra day this month plus this coming Monday is a holiday. June didn't have any holidays.

How do I do it? I watch one episode in the morning before I go to work. Since I walk to work (about 1.8 km) I can't use my Portable Language Acquisition Device during my commute.  After work, I watch 5 episodes. This gives me 4 hours a day during weekdays.  Although, I go to the Sign Language Circle meeting on Friday nights when I can. So to make up for lost time, I try to watch 8 hours on Saturday and 8 on Sunday. Or I might watch 10 hours on Saturday and 6 on Sunday. So now I'm averaging 5 hours a day because of the extra hours put in on the weekends. Also, not writing blog posts and not making YouTube videos gives me extra time to spend on the TV method. And of course, web browsing is down to a bare minimum. Zero hours most days.  I wouldn't even be writing this post if it wasn't for that Japanese drama. I thought I'd better share it with the Japanese language learners.

the hodgepodge method of language learning

Have you tried the hodgepodge method? I would describe the hodgepodge way of language learning as one in which all kinds and types of effort are applied to learning a language. It's a kind of do-it-all approach and can be constructed in various ways. Absolutely no plan whatsoever is needed! Try some technique out and if you don't like it you can just discard it. Then try something else. When you get bored with that, pick a new activity to go to work on. There's one caveat though.

Language Blogging News 2

The last edition of my newscast on language learning blogs is ready and available. This is the last one I will do unless some funding should somehow come through. Since I'm not seeking any funding, it would be a miracle if it happened.

So, dim the lights, start the popcorn, and enjoy the news.
