New week, new weekly thread. What are you learning this week and how?

It's also back-to-school season, at least around my neck of the woods. Not sure if many students are here, but good luck to any we do have. And for the rest of us, let's carry that spirit as impetus to learn something new this fall.

A friend gave me a gift, and I guess it caused some mild OCD in me since I ended up being completely useless for a few days aftwards. Been bouncing back from that day. Already knocked down my entire Japanese vocab backlog, and restarted my Spanish Migaku cards (have about 200 more cards to review there).

Haven't touched Lojban/Irish in a bit either. I'm an an impasse for those though. On one hand Lojban is more of a personal goal, on the other hand I feel a lot more connected to the Irish language due to my heritage and etc. No one to speak with in either of these langauges, so it's making it hard to decide. Feeling more of an incline towards Irish just for the more apparent cultural/historical background behind it. But it also has poor resources for learners outside of formal education, so there's that too.

Trying to take things slow. So I guess it can wait for now.
