Forget that I cannot find anyone to speak with, in Swedish or French, on account that I am a virtual shut-in.

Forget that the approaching winter looms over us like the hammer of Thor, ready to crush us.

It’s time for the six week challenge!

Basically, I tweet my progress using a series of hashtags to a bot.  The bot registers the progress on its website, and allows me to see how other people are doing.  It’s good for the competitive side of me, as well as a place to organize my progress without having to fuss with it.  It also describes what is a bonafide block of time to learn.  For example, listening to a podcast in the background is allotted a fraction of the time of speaking one-on-one.

I signed up as Emohibe.  That’s my twitter account.
