Goal Statement for Cycle 2

For cycle 2, I plan to listen to at least 1 Japanese song a day, and try to sing along with it. This may require me looking up the lyrics, but hopefully it will be able to improve my pronunciation somewhat. I also plan to shadow anime at least 3 times a week. To improve my anime shadowing experience, I plan to find segments with easier vocabulary and slower speech, so that I can more easily follow along and accurately reproduce the sounds. I plan to focus mainly on pitch and tone in my shadowing, since I feel these are currently my weak points.
