If Birthday candles are for people who want to make light of their age... then it will have 26 on my Birhtday cake. Yes, is my birhtday. Not really sure what I will be doing but my grilfriend said she had it all planned out. And I am scare. lol. ![]()
Well, as you get older and older, birthday is less and less of an important until you are old or close enough to die. You know, like how they make a big fuss about your 80th Birthday or 90th or even 100th. It is so ironic that the closer you are to death the more important your BIRTH day is. lol. ![]()
Anyway...That's about it really. Nothing much until my next blog and boy, it will be a very long one. Entitled 'My Top 5 Stanley Kubrick films'. Yes, I couldn't get enough of his movie and I pondered a long time to decide my top 5 films from this geniusfilm director.
In the mean time, here's a bit more English related stuff:
ENUFF IS ENUFF!
Did you know that more than one-theth of English words are not spelled the way they sound? Try the letter combination 'ough' out for size:
A rought-coated, dough-faced, thoughful ploughman strode through the streets of Scarborough; after falling into a slough, he coughed and hiccoughed.
A basic guild to the pronunciation of each word follows:
Rough as in 'puff'
dough as in 'oh'
thoughful as in 'port'
ploughman as in 'thou'
through as in 'too'
Scarborogh as in 'curragh'
slough as in 'buff'
coughed as in 'soft'
hiccoughed as in 'cupped'
Well, Thanks for reading and until next time. ![]()

So yeah, English is one hard assed language. "Assed" is apparently not even a word!

@KH-mixerX: Thanks. I see... You're 20! Man, what I give to be 20 again. lol.
@hazelnutman: Thank you. Yeah... It confuses me too. lol. However, I thought it was time for a change and HAL (with a L) is perfect... Anyway, yes, English is mighty hard especially when you trying to write a long sentence... It just won't let you. lol. Plus, the crazy spelling which, doesn't help at all.
