hahahas, received some good news when i did(:
Tmrw's work has been cancelled cause the event is cancelled
weeeeeeeeee! i can rest my feet for a day :D
and then i found a piece of interesting news.......
WASHINGTON (AFP) - – The New Oxford American Dictionary named "unfriend" -- as in deleting someone as a friend on a social network such as Facebook -- its word of the year on Monday.
Oxford University Press USA, in a blog post, said "unfriend," a verb, had bested netbook, sexting, paywall, birther and death panel for the honor.
"Unfriend has real lex-appeal," said Christine Lindberg, senior lexicographer for Oxfords US dictionary program.
"It has both currency and potential longevity," she said. "In the online social networking context, its meaning is understood, so its adoption as a modern verb form makes this an interesting choice for word of the year."
Previous words of the year include carbon neutral, locavore and hypermiling.
Locavores are people who eat locally grown food while hypermilers modify their cars and driving techniques to maximize gas mileage.
