get the word "like" (like, where it isn't necessary) out of my speech habits!

i think because i wrote this down as a goal, i’ve been noticing even more that i say “like” too much. and the fact that i’m noticing it is interuptting my conversations with other people!:0 so basically it takes twice as long for me to tell a story because i’ll keep stopping mid-sentence saying “crap! i just said ‘like’ again!” ah, two steps forward, one step back.

but hey, at least im making an effort, right? heh.

i just stumbled upon this goal while browsing through the site, but it rings true for me! i actually don’t use the word a lot when i’m having a normal, relaxed conversation, but when i get excited or am talking to a friend about what someone said, i always find myself saying “he was like” or “and then like..”. i’m trying to be more conscious about how i speak, but its definitely hard!
