I have only one goal, business proficiency in Korean so once I lose my job in this foreign company where I can do everything in English, I would be able to find a new job here in Korea.

I have three goals. Fully achieving any is unrealistic, but progress in any is already good enough. They are:

  1. Learn something that helps with old Indo-European languages, like Sanskrit.
  2. Improve proficiency in languages that I have weak knowledge of, like French.
  3. Get off my comfort zone and learn something non-IE, like Guarani.

Currently I'm working on #2 with German; I can form simple sentences in the language but I rely too much on dictionaries and declension/conjugation tables.

Maybe not concrete goals with set time frames, but what I'd like to do is...

  • become reasonably proficient in Norwegian Sign Language
  • get better with Norwegian prepositions, word recollection, and specialized or technical vocabulary
  • get a few grades higher in Kanji and perhaps start branching out into Chinese more actively
  • improve my listening skills and fluency in Russian

Props for learning a sign language, they're awesome.
