Background & Objectives
I've been pretty long overdue to learn Mandarin, so I want to get into that! A good, structured way to do that is to aim for HSK 1 - the main test for Mandarin proficiency.
My main goal here is to pass HSK 1, and have enough confidence in myself to speak Mandarin to Manizha.

Meeting Notes
- July 1, 2020: I'm getting to the point where I'm starting to chain sentences I've learned somewhat easily. That's been pretty cool.
- June 21, 2020: I'm now reviewing more anatomy than I'm learning fresh! Progress. :) That means I've got a good chunk of the stuff already stored in my head, which is super cool.

High-Level Roadmap
Pretty simple:
- Work through the HSK 1 course on Coursera
- As you do so, build up an Anki deck for studying
- Take and pass the HSK 1 exam
