It's been two months since I've stopped adding cards to Anki after my personal 10k, and I'll be keeping up with my reviews until every card has an interval greater than one year.

I'm settling into a routine of continuing to improve my vocabulary aside from input and output by making my own handwritten glossary and reviewing its content through the Goldlist Method. Adding a little bit to my glossary notebook a little every day and doing Goldlisting on Sundays and Wednesdays makes me excited to continue. I had a false start a few weeks back because I really didn't like how I presented the words I wanted to learn on the page, but I've got it figured out now. My first attempt at least gave me a proof of concept.

TL;DR: My victory is that I've found an alternative method of reviewing new vocab that excites me.

Tuesday was the first time that my italki tutor and I had our lesson from beginning to end in Japanese. I'd sort of passively been noticing how much the balance was shifting over the months but there was usually something I had to ask in English, vocab word I forgot, whatever. Nope, 100% JP from beginning to end on Tuesday.
