The big news is that I took a placement course and it suggested I should be in the first level of a CEFR B1.1 course! Last fall I was going to be placed in a A2.2, so apparently something is sinking in.
I finished another manga book (VizBig style Ranma 1/2 #1) in German. It's very interesting how the different authors of the different series would use vocabulary. Getting a more diverse set of words was great for the vocab.
I'm applying for a job that would start April 2027 and would require significant German language skills by then. The clock is ticking!
Gotta have my B1 by May 2027 for residency. I've got about 68 weeks until I qualify. Continuing the countdown.
Sounds like you're well on the way! Great job on the B1 placement, and good luck on the deadline. Let it motivate you!
