well i hope nobody gets mad at me, but i've nominated myself an honorary rachel. and henceforth, i shall be known called Rachel As Well. initials R.A.W. thats right. so i heard someone ranting about all the new words springing forth. well i think it's high time we had our own dialect. here's some words i've been using for a while now: going to/gonna = gawn probably = prolly didn't = dint your = yer to place emphasis on something you add a "holy" to the beginning and a "much" to the end of it. ex.: if someone is wearing a really long or cool scarf you say "holy scarf much!" or if they are eating all your food you say "holy eat much!". now i won't expect these words to be accepted right away, but if enough people start using them and other new words and expressions, together we can change the world! well prolly not, but it's worth a shot.... what are some expressions that are unique to you or yer friends? i'm dying to know. also, i was wondering what everyones favourite soundtrack composer is....besides b&s of course. mine is john barry. props if you know what movies he composed for, doubleplus props if you own any of his music. now i know the list is in the grips of a mixtape battle right now, which i whole-heartedly want to join in, but i want to propose a game......of epic proportions to be played out all over the world!.....well not quite. here's my idea, and i really hope someone likes it cause i've always wanted to do this. it's a translation game. basically i'll copy down all the lyrics to one B&S album (whichever one is agreed upon) and then i'll send by post to someone who speaks another language who will translated it directly into their language word for word, who will then send that translation to another and so on, and once we've translated it as many times as possible, we compare the beginning version with the end version. it's like a really long-winded game of telephone. but it will involve use of online foreign dictionaries. or ones from yer local library. i think we have enough different languages on the list to make it really interesting....plus it promotes group communication and participation and yes i know i sound like a kindergarten teacher. anyway, let me know.....i'm very excited about this idea.....and could someone please contact me about joining the rachels mixtape team? much love and undying walkman batteries ------R.A.W. aka caleb ben p.s. sorry about how long this post is. ===== And when I'm lying in my bed I think about life and I think about death and neither one particularly appeals to me and if the day came when I felt a natural emotion I'd get such a shock I'd probably lie in the middle of the street and die I'd lie down and die ------morrissey __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
