Words of the Week - July 27th

When is the rain going to stop? It's almost August, but I still don't feel like swimming. Maybe because I get so wet riding my bike to work in the rain everyday.

The first week of radio gymnastics started last week, but due to the rain, my children could only go twice. In New Zealand, there isn't anything like radio gymnastics. Maybe they should start seeing as New Zealand was ranked the 3rd fattest country in world behind the USA and Mexico.

Anyway, here are some words to play with this week.

Heebee-jeebees - (idiom) when a person or place makes you feel uncomfortable and a little scared.
"Walking through the cemetry at midnight gave me the heebee-jeebees."

Confidential - (adjective) something to be kept secret between the people concerned.
"This project is to be kept confidential until we get approval from the government."

Unparalleled - (adjective) something which cannot be matched or equalled.
"Tom is unparalleled in the world of chess."
