Realized I need to spend more time reviewing. I'm very eager to learn more but lots of it isn't sticking, so I need to find a better balance. And it's always a lot easier to read than to listen than to produce the language, but I'm enjoying recognizing more things when I scan websites and such.

Honestly, I plateaued and have had trouble finding motivation to study. My language is good enough now that I can navigate most situations without it getting too uncomfortable for anyone so that main drive is gone. But conversationally I'm still at a great loss and don't really know how to restart.

Been busy with work so just more reading/listening on LingQ and listening while working. With all the reading, I started to notice certain grammar structures repeatedly give me problems, so I might go back to brushing up some grammar, find gap in knowledge.

No progress on speaking and writing, hardly have time for Anki due to work.
