I have a new favorite word to add to my increasingly extensive vocabulary thanks to my GRE Vocabulary Book: Alacrity.

Alacrity (noun) -- Promptness; cheerful readiness.

As in: Moved by immense alacrity, I started my seminar project back in January, a year before I took seminar.


I plan to make this a frequent feature on my blog as I prepare for the GRE. If it annoys, I'm sorry. It's a mechanism to help me remember some of the words. Who knows?! It may even help you extend your vocabulary too!
