How I did it: I was inspired by some happenings at blip.fm (micro-blogging site with music) - more exactly 2 whole months of communicating with a girl only through the lyrics of the songs we chose. One day I decided to try it just for kicks, but most of the time I had to stop and think for a while until a song appeared on my head, which was both tiresome and conversationally weird.

Lessons & tips: Gather a collection of songs for the typical short answers you'll give through the day, and more than one for each answer is preferable, as you'll remember at least any one of them better.
Choose a day in which you don't plan to say anything too long-winded or won't need to talk to authority figures or have a conversation with your parents or something like it.
