Reading indeed improve your vocabularies

I love reading novels, mostly crimes and thrillers. The hobby that I took up during form 3. Back then my English was VERY POOR!. I love reading but mostly Malay novels, that was the reason my English was horrible. Spoken and written totally OUT!. During my English oral test, my teacher told me that she couldn't understand my words at all because I plainly memorized the script. Feeling hurt DEEPLY, I seeked from my best friend's help. Starting that day onwards, I read a lot of English books, mostly R.L. Stine and Harry Potter series. The very first time in my life I bought so many English dictionaries. Every word that I didn't know I will jot it down on a notebook together with the meanings. After several months of 'bootcamp' training, my English improved tremendously!

Currently, I seldom read much because of Mangas and illegally movies download. Lol. I am trying to pick up my reading hobby again. What I want to say here is that (lol after a long essay, here is the core idea) you might not remember tons of words easily after looking up from a dictionary for so many different words. somehow our amazing human brain able to tell you when to use the word. As if, the particular word will pop up in your mind when you need to use it. Slighly vague but you know the word. Next, what else? Double confirm with your dictionary and your uncle Google. In the future, that particular word will just stick to your mind forever, waiting to be used again for next time. At least this happened to me. ^^

haiz...this semester is really killing me. i'm not satisfy with my marks (lol, what else?). i'm feeling under pressure at the moment. Especially with my MATHEMATIC. SUCKS! i could say.i never like math. However, come and think about it. i don't like math because i don't know how to do it (lol, "good"excuse). i never understand the priciple of math. my brain just couldn't turn into the way it should be. i know i will like math once i know how to do it. (lol. who wouldn't?) whenever, i'm in a confused state, i feel really stress. i always wonder what happened to me? we all have the same brain. why mine just couldn't work like the rest of you all? i can feel it,okay. whenever i'm trying to comprehend a newly- taught chapter, or trying so hard to absorb whatever my lecturer has taught, i can feel the difficulty to understand them. As if my impulse to the brain has stopped half way or 70% before successfully reaching to my brain. i wonder if
