my mind's always fragmented. i am glad i have a blog now to help me organise a little. an idea popped up while i was reading BLINK and i know i should put it in here before i forget. i have been wanting to improve my vocabulary but never really got down to doing it. "you are rather frugal." i was told earlier last evening and i had to ask, like many other situation before, the definition of the word. that was when i know i lack word power. well, it wasn't really embarrassing or anything. i got to stop pretending i know what people are talking about and start empowering myself. thus, i have come up with the idea of updating myself with new words each day on this blog.
the following website will be helpful.
well, until i learn how to hyperlink it, i just got to spell it all out
