Like it’s like how like all people speak, like, you know
Posted by kuyru | Filed under Random-ness*, Study Life
I’ve just finished my university tutorials (it is like a roll call discussion class), where we would need to participate and put in our discussions with this week’s readings. Despite being tired from studying for my test later on today, what I could pick out is how so many people say ‘like’ to pack more information to what they are pointing out. It’s funny, and no doubt it was one thing that kept me awake during the discussion.
I always paid attention to when people say ‘like’. I can’t help it, since it’s something that my sister poked fun (but then again, my sister pokes fun of everything I say, but I suppose it’s a good thing XP). The most funniest way when you hear people say ‘like’ when you eavesdrop what people say on the bus or train. ‘Like’ is not only said by young people, but also to full-time professional working speaking and using ‘like’. It is not funny, but extremely weird.
I suppose the reason why people say like, like, like, like, etc. is to speak fast and to pact everything in just one sentence. It applies to those students who tried to talked so quickly. But what I found is how the only people I hear people say like, like, like are mainly women, mainly in conversation. No doubt because women like to talk their hearts out (I do that as well). So I’m always self-conscious to what I say. Now that I’m a university student, I should try to improve my speaking, since i feel like I still speak like a high school student. I want to be taken seriously, and when people say ‘like’ all the time, obviously you won’t be taken seriously. If you do speak ‘like’ all the time, you are obviously going to be laughed at (eventually XD).
It’s eavesâ‹…drop
So busy… =.=

Life is getting rather hard at the moment. However, I probably take the blame, as I put it upon myself. Stupid me for doing volunteering work when assessments are due. >.< Yesterday, I had to finish my prints to get them printed, finish my tutorial weekly notes, do volunteering for 6 hours straight (with free food and drinks). So basically life has been hell this week… I can’t wait until mid-semester break. I probably need it to catch up on sleep.
And I missed a lecture yesterday, because of the volunteering. I knew i had to go, but I couldn’t be bothered since I was overwhelmed by the work given at volunteering. So now I’m basically catching up on work and listening to the lectures. Afterwards, I have to go to the uni darkroom to do my black & white prints. Not to mention, if I have time, I need to submit my black & white film for processing.
Not to mention I have to finish my personal statement soon…. Argh, hate myself for putting too much work upon myself.
