This week I decided to study some vocabs instead of finding new youtube videos. That's because I felt the need to enhance my vocabulary this week ever since I started to read the book "The Tipping Point". I thought the book was interesting and bought it last week end but I couldn't get through the book as fast as I wanted to because I needed to continuously look up the dictionary. This annoyed me very much and I was also disappointed at myself for having such a poor level of vocabulary.

In order to solve this problem and to read what I want to, I decided to take a new approach. I looked up several vocabularies that reappeared many times in the book. I made list of those vocabs and reviewed them once I finished reading 20 pages every day. I did this for the past 10 days and the result was satisfactory. Althugh it was only a few more days than a week, I have now learned more than 200 words. 200 words may be big or small in quantity but what I am certain of is that it definitely helped me speed up my reading speed. I now don't search the dictionary as often as I used to before I started doing this! Increadible what 10 days can do to you!

So now, I plan on doing this continuously until I gain enough confidence in my vocab. I also plan on utilizing the "Quizlet" more often!
