Of writing and new words
Flailiently. Flailient, flailience.
I don't even know what it means. Does it exist? I don't think so, I've never heard of it before. AND I'VE READ THE DICTIONARY.
Ok, that caught your attention, did it? Well, it isn't entirely a deliberate untruth. When I was small, I had this illustrated children's dictionary, and I did really read it through, front to back. I'm not sure why, I must have found it interesting. I used to read a lot (of normal books :P) too, and by the time I was in 7th grade (age 11) I was amongst the top of the class in English, with two others. It was this time we were asked to write a poem, which was published in a book of poems written by school children.
Heh.
Too bad I absolutely sucked at writing poems.
I mean, really.
I remember sitting in front of our home computer back then, with the blank document in front of me. Eventually I decided to write about dogs, my favourite animal at that time.
The poem was bad.
I dare not even post it here... I'm not sure where the book is now anyway.
Oh, I just found it.. never mind.. heheh. Alright. I'll post it here, just to embarrass myself. Read and laugh.
Dogs
There are lots of dogs in town
So many of them around!
There are big ones, small ones,
Fat ones, thin ones,
Dirty ones, clean ones,
Tall ones, short ones,
Yellow ones, brown ones
All different kinds!
But I don't really care,
As long as they are all there!
I left England shortly after that, and that's where this blog ends for now because I don't want to go into my life story. Let's just say my learning of English hit a brick wall.
Thanks for reading, byebye and all.
