Hey guys! It's been a while, huh? Well, I finished my first semester at the new college. I got a B in Beginning Japanese II (Only because I didn't turn in a project >_<). But yeah, it's been fun. I have a new language goal now. I'm going to start learning Vietnamese (for personal....reasons...hehe ^^;; 비밀이다.)
But anyway, I'm going to start posting stuff here about my learning progress (hopefully, if I don't get lazy).
Would ANYONE like to join me? I think it'll be fun (especially if we do stuff together and not just tackle it alone, separately.)
I'll wait for someone to answer...hopefully one of you will be interested :)
See ya!

Cody
Cody is a 19 year old male that lives in America and is currently studying Korean, Japanese, Chinese (Mandarin), and Spanish. His main focus is Korean but he is also interested in Japanese and thinks Chinese sounds cool. Spanish is there because it is required for his college and he kind of likes it (a little bit). In his spare time, he likes to listen to music, watch movies, play video games, practice his languages (duh~), and Jog.

Theresa
Theresa is a 20 year old female who lives in Singapore and is currently taking Korean as a third language, her first being English and second being Mandarin. She took Korean in 2005 and gradually fell in love with the language. Some of her favourite pasttimes would be reading novels, shopping and more shopping.
Hyunwoo(현우)
Hyunwoo is a 27 year old male who lives in Korea and speaks Korean as his mother language. He's currently studying English, French, Japanese, Chinese, Spanish, Indonesian, German, and Italian. He enjoys breakdancing in his free time (and always tries to make more and more free time for this!) and loves meeting new people and communicating in the languages he's studying.

Ed
Ed is a self-described eccentric graduate student of linguistics from California. He currently focuses on Balinese and Indonesian, but has also studied the following: French, Japanese, Tagalog, Korean, and Abou Dida (in his field methods class). He is also an accomplished performer of Balinese and Central Javanese gamelan music and dance. On top of that, he's supposedly a really good amateur chef...

Nicholas
Nicholas is 20 year old Filipino male living in the Gold Coast, Australia. He has called himself "The Language Freak," and most of his close friends probably agree that this name is appropriate. Aside from his native languages English and Tagalog, he can speak pretty good Mandarin and Japanese, and can survive with some Korean and Cantonese. He hopes to learn some Spanish too! The only thing Nick enjoys more than language learning is eating, and karaoke!

Hey Cody!
Vietnamese sounds interesting...
I tried to learn some basic Vietnamese a few years back, but the tones defeated me (way harder than Mandarin or Cantonese).
How exactly do you plan to study?
Can you give any links?
hi cody, i've got a vietnamese friend and i know a little vietnamese here and there but don't think i can survive with those. haha. and yes, the tones are a killer. i doubt i can grasp that even if you gave me 10 years.
