Learn to be whyser with a word a day

[whys]

When whys needs to be 'whys'er, she learns new words.

But seriously, I need to expand my vocabulary by a lot. Not just for vce, but for the life that exists beyond that too.
I remember carrying around a 'book of new words' in primary school that I was very proud of, but I never really did much other than write words in there. I never used the words in it and soon forgot about the book, and ended up losing it - not much of a suprise if I was to be frank with myself. So, time to take it up again, this time better than before!
