1st of July.

1st of July is an indeed a very special date to me. It was the day I was given birth to a loving and caring  family.  However now, to me, 1st of July is just like any other ordinary day. Little did I know, many historical moments happened on that day which is long forgotten by the people in this modernized world. Not that I remember anything from that faithful day, well come on I was less than a day old so yes, you probably guessed it I obtained help from the all glorious internet so thank you technology! Let's cut to the chase!

Finding the Perfect One.

Okay, you may be wondering why is my post title a little bit irrelevant and ridiculous. When I mentioned about finding the perfect one, I meant finding the perfect word - and not literally finding the "perfect one" like in those fairy tales.

Long story short, I'm just really writing about moods. Let me take two words in comparison, happy and ecstatic. Both words certainly do possess the same definition. For instance, the girl is extremely happy as she passed her results with flying colors or the girl is extremely ecstatic as she passed her results with flying colors?

No doubt the second sentence implied a more significant note. You don't have to be "bombastic" with every single word of yours but the right word at the right place can easily set a different mood to your readers.

Previous English lessons made me realized that my vocabulary is so limited and there are many words to explore in the Thesaurus. From today onward, I vow to utilize the Thesaurus to an attainable level of capacity and enhance my writings. Yes - I will find the perfect one.  

Coincidence or Fate

Coincidence.What is coincidence? Coincidence is a remarkable concurrence of events or circumstance without apparent casual connection.Some say coincidence doesn't exist and everything happens for a reason. For instance, you bumped into your high school sweetheart thrice a week at the exact cozy little cafe just across town at the same time and day for consecutive weeks. Was it an coincidence or what others called it, fate? You see, God has his own crazy unique ways of informing us what lies in front of us but we, humans often take this "coincidence" too lightly as it seem like a natural phenomenon.To me, life is like a treasure hunt, sometimes we have to search way harder behind those hidden meanings of the clues to outsmart the others to have a head start in the game(life). I strongly urge anyone who is reading this to take a moment and have a second outlook on your surroundings and try to figure out the incident which bounds to happen follow up by those past coincidences.Coincidence is a God's way of remaining anonymous - Albert Einstein. However, you can choose to take my words with a pinch of salt.The decision is yours to decide, so decide wisely.
