You feel me?

I want to say thanks to my friends Farouk, Dayah, Hidayah, Aqilah and all of my classmates because gave me such warmth welcome speech in Madam Anawiyah's class. It always feel good when you can deliver short speech without thinking much because all of the words that are coming from your mouth are so honest.:P

Ok. We often take English for granted. But if we can explore its paradoxes, we can find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square and a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig. 

And I always wonder why is it that's writers write but fingers don't fing, grocers don't groce and hammers don't ham?

If the plural of tooth is teeth, why is not the plural of booth is beeth? And why when a house burns up, it will burns down?

Sometimes we found that we fill in a form by filling it out and an alarm clock goes off by going on. And why, when I wind up my watch, it starts its but when I wind up my writing, I end it?

Did I make sense here?:P
