Learn a word a day

I wonder how come the gang members' english can be that good and yet you guys is still saying that not good enough..but from my point of view, I think it is good enough and for sure there is always a room for improvement lar...but you guys' english is good enough to use in this corporate world (I think lar....hehe...)..some of you is from malay primary school and I understand y u guys english is good but some of you is from chinese primary school and u guys english is good as well...maybe is my problem lar..haha...

Because currently I'm looking for job and only seriously realise that my english level is not good enough in this corporate world..I hope to improve my english and I had take initiative to check the meaning of every single word that I donno..but the problem is, I will definitely forgot after few hours or days..and what is the point of doing this? and I'm lazy to drop down in a book but I will try to do it after I start working..I will try write down in my organizer...

I will try my best to improve my english and communication skill by using english during my working life...Hope corporate world could help me in this and I try to take this as my 2009 resolution since everyone is having many resolutions...haha...

I like to read the 3 gals' blog in our gang, because sometimes they will used some words that I donno and I can learn from it..
Just now I had read vanessa's blog and felt that your english is so good and u r one of the person who complaining your english is not good enough..sigh...maybe is my english too low level lar..hehe...

Learn 5 words from your blog today:
1. serendipitously (look familiar with this word but not so confirm the meaning..haha..): 意外收获

2. contemplating : 冥思苦想

3. clairvoyant : 千里眼的人

4. clout: 打击/影响

5. daunting : 使人畏缩

Paiseh tim if you guys know those words and yet I donno...maybe because I'm from Chinese primary school lar ( an excuse for myself to escape from facing the reality..haha....)

today not learn a word a day, today I've learned 5 words a day...

Thanks van...haha...
