I think my first artifact went pretty well. The content was"Hello my name is Sissi. Nice to meet you. I like spicy fried rice cake ( Tteokbokk) and Korean mixed rice with meat (Bibimbap). I sent this to my Korean friends and they gave me some advice on tones. I think this is a really good way for us to improve spoken Korean because it actually sounded differently when you speak to yourself and in the video. I always thought that my pronunciation was quite good but until I listened to the video did I realize that my tones could still be improved.
In terms of the goals and tasks. I reviewed my notebook everyday and exchanged newly gained knowledge with my roommates. While doing Skype with my boyfriend who is Korean, I also asked him questions that I did not understand in Korean learning as well as some interesting Korean customs like drinking and bowing. I think I am now on the right track and need to insist doing so in the next following weeks.
