Now we can understand why our PM Lee has advocated speaking and writing plain English.
My Primary School students can read and understand the articles in this blog. I am sure readers will agree they enjoy my simple and plain style of writing? :-)

Oh my... It's too tiring to write like that!
holy hellhole, that was funny! =D
I have no idea who leaked out this love letter I wrote years ago. I was young and foolish then.
My summation is that I have received gratification from the digestation of this piece of articulation. Hopefully future elaborations from you Choo will provide me with hours of fascination.
Choo, in response to your last paragraph: I love your style of writing. I wish I could write the way you do-- the simplicity reflects the wisdom and sincerity. Thank you for the stories.
Choo, I wrote a post of A to Z of me passed on from Karen from Welcome to Singledom blog since she tagged me. I don't know if you have read it but you can find it here

I have since tagged you to do one about yourself, so hopefully you can do it and pass it on to someone else.
As for coming to Singapore, this might actually happen at the end of this year, its looking quite possible. So if I go, I will definitely come and find you and eat that Imperial Banquet, Tiramisu and now good chocolates as well. :-)
Oh I see. Sorry, Thanh. I didn't know I was supposed to write A to Z about myself. What is the meaning of tag? and what is html and trackback which I see on the computer.?
Pardon me for my illiteracy on the computer.
Kamsiah.
Yes, I read every one of your articles and the one A to z sometime ago. I cannot reply on football because I am not familiar with the subject. Only watched the finals last year. Sports page is one I will always skip when reading the Straits times.
That was a good one on your bombastic English in reply. At the of the day, plain, simple English is still the best. Makes life easier, ya? Am rushing off to teach TESL now... my new class of China students from Monday to Fri mornings.
Have a good day!
To tag just means to pass on to someone. Its a game that kids in primary school play. One kid chases all the others and tries to tag someone, whose turn it is to then chase everyone else and try to tag a third person etc. So I have tagged you (passed on, requested you) to do an A to Z of you.
Html is the programming language used for most webpages. I think trackbacks are links that let people come back to your webpage to see if there are more comments on that post they replied to.
I had to think a while to come up with that bombastic English sentences. I normally just speak using very simple English.
