Kanji 巧み／精巧

  I will try not to be negative about this but Kanji is my biggest weakness.  I feel like it is just pointless after a while to memorize so many characters that I will never use or even see in a context where I don't have a 電子辞書 by my side to look it up.  Maybe I will learn to love them in the next few months....
I have so many to cover and I don't even have all of the N2 Kanji down.  You have to start somewhere, right?
