If you count going to bed por la madrugada going to bed early, then I’m succeeding. It’s not quite what I had in mind, though.

How I did it: I attended evening classes for adults at local sixth form college. I practised speaking and listening to Spanish by conversing with a Spanish friend. I studied Spanish grammar books. I practised reading Spanish by reading books translated into Spanish. Read how I did it…
I bought a bar code scanner and scanned a load of books that hadn’t been added to my Library Thing, but then I realised there was more fields for information than there had been, for example, you can now do multiple authors properly, so I deleted the lot and started again!
I have catalogued 622 books to date. I have one tall bookcase remaining, which is full of my language and linguistics books. I have a couple of shelves’ worth of my husband’s books to do and maybe one or two others. Hopefully, I’ll remember to scan in any new books I buy pretty much straight away, then I can fill in the date acquired field as well.
I’ve decided I don’t really want to do this anymore because it takes up too much space on the hard disk.
