Here's the deal, guys. I love words. I love how they mesh together to form simple sentences, exquisite explanations, delirious detail, and poignant paragraphs. Alliteration is pretty awesome, too. And to celebrate my love, I have challenged myself to create a sentence (or a few) every weekday using a new word (courtesy of http://www.dictionary.com/).
Each day will revolve around a certain book genre.
Monday=Mystery
Tuesday=Teen
Wednesday=Way back when
Thursday=Television (Okay, I'm fudging big time on this one, but it's my blog.)
Friday=Fantasy
Saturday=Snarky
Sunday=Song lyrics
You get the idea.
Here's an example:
Bellicose \BEL-ih-kohs\, adjective:Inclined to or favoring war or strife; warlike; pugnacious.
"Geoffrey's bellicose nature," pondered Hibbens, "inclines me to think that he's a more likely suspect than Christoph. Drat him and his iron-clad alibi!"
This should be fun! (And by fun, I of course mean that it's basically just one big ulterior motive to help me prepare for the GRE.)
About Me
- Gretchen Alice
- I'm attracted to the simple things in life, such as a good novel, a well-crafted cd, rain, Jim Halpert, neurology, scrabble, and pie. I have both a deeply practical side and a truly hopeless romantic side that are often at odds. (I am a Gemini, so I can't really help that.) I would like to be Tina Fey when I grow up.
