Last week was great! I made more progress last week than the week before. For me that is what is important – making progress and striving to be tiny bit better than the day or week before. Eventually all that progress will add up. The progress was both qualitative and quantitative.

I finally learned about the past tense. I guess you could look at it as the universe of things I can say just doubled in size as I can now say things I’m able to say in present, in the past as well. 🙂

In total I studied 8 hours and 10 minutes versus 6 hours 27 minutes the previous week, or 70 minutes per day versus 55 minutes a day in the week before.

Here is the breakdown:

• 170 minutes on Memrise compared to 112 minutes on Memrise last week. Total number of items in long term memory is 730 with 71 new items in the frequency list course (current total 185) and 113 new in Memrise Duolingo course. 
• 82 minutes on Duolingo. Currently 1220 XP points at Level 8 and at lesson Adverbs 4/10. (Previous week 1094 XP points)
• 228 minutes of Coffee Break Spanish in which I listened to 11 new episodes (episodes 46 to 56).

Highlights of the week:

• I have been able to keep up the Duolingo streak. 
• I studied more than half an hour each day.
• I got in more practice on Memrise (from average 16 to 24 minutes per day).

Lowlights of the week:

• I wanted to write few paragraphs in Spanish, but did not get to it.
