@Lisaveeta Thanks for hosting! :durtle_the_explorer:

Btw, I noticed in the title there are “” marks – maybe we should leave those out.

Joining the challenge in order to be more consistent with my listening. I felt burn out and a bit bored listening to the same podcasts, so I will try some new ones this time. I’ll also include anime and jdoramas as listening practice. Aiming for 10min a day at least just to keep the ball rolling. Good luck everyone!

I don’t think I can be bothered to join the read every day challenge this time around, but I have found that the listening challenge gives me a useful nudge, so back for this again. Thanks for taking up hosting @Lisaveeta !

Everything looks okay to me, but what do I know? Anyway, don’t worry. I am sure someone must have a template for the table.

:sparkles: chamellow’s homethread :sparkles:

I’ve been away from WK for some time (life!), and this is my first foray into the forums in a while. I’m really glad to see this challenge exists because I actually started my own listen every day challenge back in mid-December! :snowflake:

I’m not going to be too picky about what I’m listening to initially, as I’m currently in a good routine of sticking on a playlist of 日本語コンテッペイ podcast episodes and listening to those on walks so I’m getting 30-60 minutes listening in a day. Having them on shuffle gives me a good back and forth between easier and more difficult episodes to build back my confidence. In a few weeks I’ll likely start looking for some other things to switch up a bit!
