haha. i know i said gdbye to this blog but i couldn't help wanting to post some stuff somewhere.
i figured, since i've finally figured out my pw and id through trial-and-error(a lot of it) might as well make use of it eh.
so. these are some new words i've learned. (incidentally, thefreedictionary is now my new best friend and is on my favourites list.) yeah, a note, some aren't really new words but words that i tot i knew but was slightly off the mark. and the synonyms are only ones that i like.
