Don't ever let anyone tell you it is too late to improve your skill and knowledge!!!!!!!

A decade ago to learn English, you had to attend costly English classes or purchase course material like tapes and books. Now you can learn English for free from the comfort of your home using the internet. The BBC and the British Council offer a number of online courses which teach written and spoken English. You can also improve your English by watching television programs and reading English newspapers. For more information, visit http://tinyurl.com/qnzpt

I got these from a book I'm reading:
eremetric - hermitlike
nacreous - pearl-like
apotheosis - deification (becomming a god)
divagation - digression
By the way, I think thx is pretty exotic.

- HYPERBOLE - Pronunciation [hahy-pur-buh-lee]
1. obvious and intentional exaggeration.
2. an extravagant statement or figure of speech not intended to be taken literally, as “to wait an eternity.”
As in "I've told you a million times, don't exaggerate!"

You don't need "big words" to sound smart. It's too late for you to do that as it is. My advice is proper grammar, and correct punctuation.
