get serious about it. approach in the same way as french / get straight into it incl. custom anki deck with audio-based and text-based cards. progress at about the same rate. work from textbook. reach level to take swedish class @ osaka next semester?
mandarin upkeep? create new anki deck based on textbook (audio files in itunes etc) if i can't bring myself to working on speaking right now, what about just passive knowledge for now - e.g., hearing audio and the answer/other side of anki card showing the chinese character. this can ensure i don't forget university content previously studied. at the very least i have to be able to meet the standard to resume it next year. therefore use this as a base of minimum knowledge / "mastery" of this as a minimum standard. anything outside of this is extra/great.
japanese anki every day.
korean ! ! !!!!!
playlist of 5 minutes audio each of swedish, mandarin and korean, 10+ of japanese. also.. french.. uh.. swedish itunes store for fransk podcast tbh?
play through this en route to/from university. =minimum daily listening time.
