Longest :)

Was just chatting with Yan a couple hours ago, and somehow we came to the topic of the longest words in english.

Lo and behold (kudos to wiki), THE LIST!

The longest word in any of the major English language dictionaries is pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis, a word which refers to a lung disease contracted from the inhalation of very fine silica particles, specifically from a volcano. Research has discovered that this word was originally a hoax.

In his play Assemblywomen (Ecclesiazousae), the ancient Greek comedic playwright Aristophanes created a word of 183 letters which describes a dish by stringing together its ingredients:

Lopadotemakhoselakhogameokranioleipsanodrimypotrimmatosilphiokarabomelitokatakekhymenokikhlepikossyphophattoperister-alektryonoptokephalliokigklopeleiolagōiosiraiobaphētraganopterýgōn,

Henry Carey's farce Chrononhotonthologos (1743) holds the opening line: "Aldiborontiphoscophornio! Where left you Chrononhotonthologos?"

James Joyce made up nine 101-letter words in his novel Finnegans Wake, the most famous of which is Bababadal­gharagh­takammin­arronn­konn­bronn­tonn­erronn­tuonn­thunn­trovarrhoun­awnskawn­toohoo­hoordenen­thurnuk. Appearing on the first page, it allegedly represents the symbolic thunderclap associated with the fall of Adam and Eve. As it appears nowhere else except in reference to this passage, it is generally not accepted as a real word.

"Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious", the 34-letter title of a song from the movie Mary Poppins, does appear in several dictionaries, but only in reference to the song title. The attributed meaning is "a word that you say when you don't know what to say."

"The holy Jah" is a 4.4-million-letter word in "Marienbad My Love" by Mark Leach. It is comprised of pieces of various words from the world's faiths and means "god within".

"Babyoubiquitouse...oiletub" is a 2,087,214-letter word which occupies almost all Nigel Tomm's novel The Blah Story, Volume 10 and means something like a girl or a bitch.



And I thought pengosomokawalaturan was long :)

Can you Love me?

I really don't know why I like to stay up late nights, especially as there is a lecture tomorrow which I'm so surely gonna sleep at if I don't sleep right this very second.

And the worst part is that my mind is trying to convince me I won't feel tired if I watch United play till 5.30 am.

Anyways, Christmas was really fun!! 1 muscial, 2 dinners and a HUGE party!! Feeling tired after all the fun I had over the past week.

Speaking about the muscial, it was at my cousin's church, and it did raise some pretty deep questions about my spiritual life.

If we're so in sin that we don't even wanna love ourselves, how does God love us? And more importantly, how do we love someone who's a wreck?

Can you love me?

Twilight..



Today I was college watching it with my some of the people I sayang. Yan, Fad, Anushya and Charlotte. Had many thoughts about how the movie was going to be like, especially since some people said it was nice and some said the opposite.

Personally, I think it's nice but not GREAT. Maybe a very respectable 7/10. Lots of plot elements and book stuff were taken out to make the movie move faster. I don't particularly mind that, but the best part was the essence of all the romance was there, and it fueled you with this "ah....." feeling.

Maybe should say something about my thoughts. Of course Edward Cullen doesn't really exist, but I can't help but feel intimidated by his character. I mean, he's brave and romantic and extremely able, but I'm not. Kinda makes me feel bad for not being the 'perfect guy' for a very deserving girl.

Overall, I loved the movie, but even more than that, I love the people I was with. I feel very at peace with them around. Even though Yan and Anushya were like oooh and ahhhing every 5 minutes (literally!!), and drove Charlotte and myself crazy, with Fad stuck in the middle.

Wouldn't be the same without them.

Life is PEOPLE!

I LOVE SOPPY SONNETS

I don't love you as if you were the salt-rose, topaz
or arrow of carnations that propagate fire:
I love you as certain dark things are loved,
secretly, between the shadow and the soul.

I love you as the plant that doesn't bloom and carries
hidden within itself the light of those flowers,
and thanks to your love, darkly in my body
lives the dense fragrance that rises from the earth.

I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where,
I love you simply, without problems or pride:
I love you in this way because I don't know any other way of loving

But this, in which there is no I or you,
so intimate that your hand upon my chest is my hand,
so intimate that when I fall asleep it is your eyes that close.

A Thought

I think people are worth time. Even though it’s gonna kill you trying to help them, try you must.

I don’t know why I’m this way, maybe God gave me this gene to be unable to be indifferent or ignorant of others.

In no way, I want to promote myself. I’m just humbled by His gifts. Who am I, that He should care for me?

In the same way, when we look at other people that ‘are not worth our time’, who are they that we should care for them?

If the Creator of the Universe would give his only Son for me, a wreck, lost and unworthy person, why shouldn’t I give mine for this person?

Maybe this is why I wanna be a doctor.

Messages From Manchester



















To Liverpool:
You are leading the league illegally, better settle for number 2 or else kaboom..we will make you disappear.

To Chelsea:
Better sack Scolari sooner or he suck you all to nowhere. FYI, you can’t do anything but watch Red Devils ascending to power. Yes We Can!!

To Arsenal/ Wenger:
Consistency… consistency ma guys and stop comparing yourself with Man U. Yeah, we lost five games last season and we went on to win the league but you you smokeless gunners, you will keep on loosing some more games. Remember Hull/Stoke??..lol
