Here comes the criticism, Why is that certain definitions repeat themselves? Perfect example would be this one. The defintion of boredom: the state of being bored. What is the point of looking up a word if it just states the word again in the definition. If I were to make a dicitionary I would make sure that none of the words repeated themselves.
Becca's Diciontary:
Boredom:
the state of feeling unentertained, sometimes lazy, usually sparked by an indesirable feeling to do nothing.
That's my definition.
Now that we have that all cleared up lets continue with the complaining about me being bored. I tried entertaining myself by clicking "next blogpost" on my page and other peoples pages. I even looked up certain keywords just to see if I could find something entertaining. And I did, I will admit that. But then when I click "next blogpost" again I get languaged like...Spanish. German. Hungarian? And other foreign words that are far different from the English language. So I click again...and again...but no English blogs show up! I'm not smart with languages. I still need to take one more year of Spanish (not sure when or how I'm going to do that). So when it comes to words like "hola" and "oui" and "yaddayadda" basically all I understand is gibberish.
I think they should make a language called "Gibberish" that'd be awesome xD
Anyways >.> more complaining. Uhm. I'm hungry. All I had for breakfast this morning was a "Nature's Goodness!" -or something like that- bar. I have a bad habit of not eating breakfast, so I usually try to force myself to take those first few bites and swallow. NOt sure why but I'm never usually hungry in the mornings. It's not healthy, I know, but then again I'm not exactly the healthiest person. I eat right...eat very right. Veggies and veggies and lots of veggies and good food for you. But I'm underweight for my height and I really should exercise more. That way when people ask why I'm so skinny I can say: "oh that? Yeah I'm just in really good shape. Exercise, eat healthy. That sorta stuff." Instead I have to say "oh that? uhm...i'm just skinny. Like I eat really healthy (you might call me a non-sweet eating person. I rarely have sweets. Or so it seems at least >.>) but I don't really do much to be like this. I just am." And then when people ask if I'm anorexic or whatever I tell them "no". Cuz I'm not. I'm just skinny. Don't get me wrong I like being skinny, but I rather call myself "thin" instead of skinny. Thin sounds more healthy, skinny sounds...like skin and bones.
uhm...I'm bored. Already mentioned that. Right.
I really don't think anyone will read this. That's why I'm just typing random nonesense. If anyone were to read this then I am sincerely sorry to be putting you through this boring writings. I think I should stop writing. Or at least write a better post after this one. Maybe.
Ahh, anyways. I'm going now. Au revoir! (French for "goodbye!")
Love,
--Becca
Rachel and I were actually in the process of compiling a Gibberish Dictionary at one point xD
