recently, i've taken up dictionary reading as my new found interest. it feels real good learning so many new and cheem words, and also the various ways the words can be used and figures of speech. whenever i see a new word, my hands would automatically reach for the longman dictionary of contemporary english beside me to check out the meaning. isnt' it fun? if not, randomly flipping through the pages of the dictionary to an alphabet and reading the it is equally good too. for example, i learnt why 'alpha and omega' means 'first and last'. it is because 'alpha' is the first alphabet of the greek alphabet, and omega is the last. of course, i also learnt many crude words, which i have decided not to type here. it is only now that i can do such things. it's because i'd be starting school soon. to be precise, on the sixteenth day of the fifth month. [please do not look at the lunar calender or the muslim or hindu calender] therefore, i would not be able to enjoy the luxury of sitting down at my study table to enjoy the wonders of the dictionary. wonders? what a word to describe a dictionary.
as you might have guessed, or maybe you didnt, i only have one fish left. the sole survivor who survived all the water changing, over feeding and everything else that could happen to a fish that is kept by me. the survival of the fittest. at least i managed to keep one fish alive. or rather, that fish was the most determined to live. i think the rest of the fish were cruel to die so quickly and leave only one of their friend behind. but fishie, it's alright. i'm sure i make a good friend. dont i?
