☆ I CAN'T SEEM TO GET ANYTHING DONE LATELY. I feel tired all the time. Tired and sulky. But let's not get into that.

☆ The amount of smoke in the air is not helping. How can I go out and take some fresh air when the air isn't... fresh? And the smoke has been stinging my eyes, ahhhh. I keep meaning to get photos in the evenings, when the smoke is

I do it too, every so often, that I feel sluggish about everything including things I normally enjoy doing. I don't like to think of Thule because every time I do I feel like I've abandoned a baby in the woods. ;^; I've got ideas and all, it's just that I get none of them written down properly.

Listening to audio files is no bad way of learning the language! It builds you understanding of the rhythm and pronunciation thus helping you later master them yourself, and more than anything it helps you learn to understand what the natives are trying to tell you. I know I like to keep the radio open here, even though most of the time I don't quite catch what they're talking about. Even then I do understand something at least, and it helps me get over some anxiety to actually go out and try to talk to people in Icelandic.

It's such an awful feeling when one can't even manage to do the things that one enjoys, arrrgh.
Try not to feel bad about that, though. The writing. Things happen, and sometimes a person just isn't able to get it down. It happens!
(... and this reminds me of yet another thing that I started, and intended to finish, but didn't. Whoops. Well, it'll get done eventually)

Hmmm I guess you're right, it's not a bad way to go about it. My main issue is that I never seem to remember anything. Then again, I suppose with learning out of a book, I don't remember anything either, unless I have the time to sit down and really concentrate on it (which I don't have the ability to do so right now).
