My goal 3 years ago

I started learning Mandarin serious 18 months ago. I originally gave myself 6 months to master it. I am already a year behind schedule. But I believe I can still achieve my goal! I will give myself 4 more months to do it!

Here is my plan for the next 4 months:
1) Reading – can read about 75% now. Need to read more simplified Chinese, most likely from the Internet.
2) Listening – can understand conversations spoken with a normal speed. I am going to listen to the conversations between the fastest Mandarin speakers in my department. They always have lunch together.
3) Oral – can communicate but not fluent. Need to make some Mandarin-speaking friends.
4) Writing – Can’t write. No plan.
