I am using lang-8 to push myself writing Japanese more, it is quite good that many webmates corrected my writing, gave me many suggestions. 

Now, I could remember some words and sentences, and sure that I really know that. If I didnt use, I would think, it is a simple sentence, of course I knew. But when I use it, it could be wrong.

So lang-8 test me if I really know.

After 1 month practicing, I found a problem, which is I used many simple sentences,avoid difficult sentence structures, it is no good to improve myself.Then, I start to make a sentence structure banks for myself, I type different sentences in computer, with chinese translation. When I dont know how to express my meaning, I search with Chinese, and find the sentence structure in Japanese. I want something that is reliable, not search on google, so I type those things from a big dictionary. It is really a hard work, my target is 850 pages, every pages will have 3 sentence structures, so total would be more than 2000 sentence structures I have to type into computer. I started from 3 days before, and now I feel my waist is painful. I am just typing in index in excel, so I could search index in computer and look up the dictionary, it will take me 5 days to finish the index. Step by step, I hope in the future, I would type in sentences, therefore, I could search and see the sentence immediately in computer.

I heard that if in Japanese learning school in HK, to learn Japanese until a good level,eg. like the level of secondary student, that have no problem on writing, speaking,etc, it will take 8 years! It meant a learner should pay the school for 8 years to finish all courses. From my point of view, if you need not to learn very good, learn for work or further study, 8 years are too long..
