When I lived down south they would say 'ain't' and 'ya'll' all of the time. When I moved I was teased endlessly for my 'odd' vocabulary. XD

Here I went from hearing slang to proper....and then slang again....I always get confused...and end up writing what my head is sayin'


Like I have the habit of sayin'..

waz up? (when I want to be loud)
wat up? (when I'm lazy kicking back)
sup? with a quick nod (when I'm far from someone)

hahaha....I'm silly....

Atleast people can understand you. I just got so confused I'm on the verge of making up my own language. If I like something I'll say it's 'boss' instead of cool, and so on and so forth. No one understands me! XD

OMG! Talking about language.....I saw....there is a website that you can make your own dictionary.....Otherwise you write the meanings of your own words. I saw it on a movie thingy. I think it was a Juno movie....It came with a special edition.....Cookies! I forgot the name of the website! Next time I go to the store I'll see if I can find what I saw..

That would be so cool!! Juno is one of those movies that you watch and you sort of pick up on the way she talks and start saying the same stuff she does... lol! Starting your own dictionary sounds fun though!

Do you mean Urban Dictionary? There are tons of weird words/slang on there!

Yes! That's the one! I have bad memory...I sometimes call myself a "dory" when I forget something.

Yes yes it's Urban Dictionary: Define Your World ^___^

This is how I talk. Listening to it, I sound so rough!

[It's just an anime drawing tutorial but it's the only thing with my voice over , so yep yep >.<] I say words like 'Later' without the T >.< So it's just La'er >.< [My mum always tells me off, she says it sounds common >.<]
