In my pursuit of trying to churn out 3 reports in the past 3 weeks, I have found something about myself.
My world of vocabulary is lousy ONE BIG TIME!
Here I am, trying to write a 5000 worded paper HOPING not to bore the lecturer with my repetition of words. Gosh.. I was so tempted to purchase a dictionary.
That's when I am pretty much glad that I have upgraded to Cable instead of Dial Up!
I found a whole pool of resources out there in cyberspace.
Things like Thesaurus.com and Merriam-Webster Online helped me walked that extra mile.
Well, I don't think I really want to impress whoever is reading my papers with a Flowery Language but I don't really wish to bore them with the same sentences like "After participating in ____".
Man... If the reader's not sick of reading, I am sick of writing. Haaaa!!
In this pursuit, I do not want to forget those friends who were constantly online with me helping me words that I could describe, words that is at the tip of my tongue BUT I just simply can't get it out. And also ex-classmates who helped me walk a little more steadily with their past experience and knowledge.
Gosh.. I was hit by a "Panic Attack" so many times and boy am I thankful that there is this thing call Prayer.
In all honesty, I asked myself after this thesis, "Do you still want to further yourself in this line?". Well, it will be food for thought in the months or years to come... For now, after this paper, perhaps I should take a pole and try walk the tightrope! ;)
Okai dok! Crozzing all fingers, toes and legs, praying real hard, that my paper has found favour in the eyes of the one who reads it!
