Now you all know how I developed my massive vocabulary: I copied the dictionary. Well, as far as format. Here are two pages of it.
These dictionaries (~35 year old) have since been with me when I was a kid, staying in Blk 457 Ang Mo Kio. They are exceptionally useful to me during my primary and secondary educations; I really can't imagine how I've learned my english spelling and chinese han yu pin yin without them.
I really really detest studying chinese. As much as i'm really proud to be one, i really just can't appreciate the language. Though i genuinely hope to do so one day.

Equality of complication of both dictionary and maze is the motivation of this work. We often face with a countless number of situations that are indescribable even though all the words we use are already in a dictionary. Sometimes lives are felt as a maze that is unable to express even with a dictionary.
