I'm 23, starting studying Japanese around the end-ish of 2008. I want to finish up my Japanese studies by the time I'm 25.

Everyone's saying something about themselves so I will to.
19, started studying japanese in early 2009 for real. In the first 4 months went thought genki 1, got frustrated with kanji, bought RTK in April that year, studied rtk on and off until I got serious and restarted studying it in summer, finished it in september. Kanji is my strongest point and I don't review RTK since past summer. But I do focus on writing every word I learn.
In march 2010 started doing sentences but only got serious like 6 months ago (almost 4000 sentences).

It's weird now seeing people's true age in which I already guessed....very wrong. XD
At any rate, I'm 18 -- I've been here for 3 years. :3 Hopefully I continue to be a prt of this community for a long time.

Turned 26 this month.
I started RTK a couple of years ago, finished in about 3 months, and stopped doing the reviews.
In summer 2010, I deleted all the cards and started it all over again. There are currently 1837 cards in my "4+ Reviews" stack.

Wow, I feel old looking through the last page of this thread. lol
I'm 28, have been studying RTK for 6 weeks now and am on frame 600. Slowly picking up speed because I don't want to spend 6 months doing nothing but RTK!
What age are you? - nohika - 2011-02-16
I'm 20. Apparently not a very common age...regardless, I turn 21 in August, so. Not like I'll be 20 forever.
I've never done Heisig - I'll admit it. And currently, at the moment, I don't plan to. Why am I here? The camaraderie and the excellent advice.
I've been studying Japanese on and off for years. Was serious for two or three months, took a month off, and am now serious again (have been for...oh iunno, three or four days...lol.) It ebbs and flows like my exam schedule.

winterpromise31... you are 28 and you feel old? Well I am 63 and I feel young! ahaha...
I finished RTK 1 and 2 some time ago and now I am working on improving my reading comprehension.
Oh.. I just realized this thread has been revived... I was a bit younger in 2008, the first time I posted here...

I frequent another Japanese forum (TextFugu) and am usually the oldest person posting. But no, 28 is not old and neither is 63!

Also 28. Need to finish creating my youth stealing device so I can use it on my 21yo gf. She makes me feel old
Pretty amazing that people are finishing rtk and getting good in highschool. All I did was play videogames

Jesus, is here nobody older than me? ;___; *feels old*
はじめまして！おばあちゃんです！(´;ェ;`)ウゥ・・・
I'm 30, but feel much younger (^-^') ...
I can't really remember but I think I started RTK1 in July 2008 and finished in September 2008
That's also when I started studying Japanese seriously. I passed N2 last year.
Still a long way to go.
I think I'm finally ready for RTK3.

Anyway, I'm 22 and started RTK in March of 2009 and finished it September 2009. Stopped reviewing in February 2010 and started reviewing again this month (Feb 2011) after feeling like I was losing my grasp on some kanji. Surprisingly it hasn't been that hard to start reviewing again. If I don't remember one I just need to see it one time and then I'm all good again. Had a stack of ~1950 to review and now down to somewhere below 1600.
Been doing sentences in some form for a little over a year... Read through and SRSed Tae Kim but feel shaky on grammar still so I'm working through the Genki books (just starting the 2nd). The workbook is good practice. Recently gave up on the Smart.fm decks (just too slow paced and boring for me) and am focusing more on 2001KO now (I use it for Kanji production and vocab). Starting to read Trigun and have Samurai Champloo and the first book of Spice and Wolf sitting on my bookshelf. Slowly easing my way into monolingual sentences now (doing monolingual sentence with english def for one or two new words and doing bilingual for more complicated grammar until I get used to it).
Jeebers... Long post to just say my age.

for all those in H.S. - this site taught me more than any class I ever took about how to study a foreign language.

I want to do university courses because I think if you're at a good level, you can learn a lot. Well, this is the theory I'm going on anyway.
