I've subscribed to that, but the words just go in, er, one eye and out the other. XD; Normally, I would rely on the context as well (I used to go through phases when I was younger: I would be all diligent and write down every word that I didn't know one day and refuse to look up unknown words the next XD I was stuck on the latter phase until recently), but I figure I may as well use my favourite pastime, reading, as a way to improve my vocab seeing as how I only have a little over a month to prepare for the GREs. X3;;;;

I was born in China, then moved to the States for almost two years, and then came to Canada -- I've been living in Canada for about...thirteen years now. :)

Maybe it's super luxurious! ...well, I wouldn't pay that much for a pillow unless it comes with really super-duper dreams every night. XD
