Small breakthrough?

I hadn't had English conversation for a while except for my learning. And I talked with English native speakers in English yesterday and today, it's the first time after a long time.

I know I should have English conversation as much as possible so I tried to have a language exchange partner before, but I found that it was SO hard to find a good language partner that I stopped to look for anyone. But I realized again that it's very important for improving my English. But I have little chance to speak English except at work.

Recently, it seems that my listening skill has improved a little increased. I hear English a bit clearer than ever. I had never feel such a thing. I always hear that language skills don't improve step by step. The skills don't improve at all for a while, and then suddenly it improves, for example one day you burst into understanding what people say. It's the breakthrough.

So I was waiting for my breakthrough, for a long time. Hmm... It's now? But isn't it too small for the breakthrough? Anyway, I think it's a good time to improve my English more and more!
