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

Still trying…

Grr, I still haven’t completely killed this one. It’s SO hard to pick yourself up on it! But I think I’m much better than I used to be. What I’d really like to do now is get rid of ‘um’!

OK, I’m not THAT bad! I want to completely eliminate unnecessary likes from my everyday speech! I sat in front of some girls on a bus the other day and it was almost every second word. I want to speak eloquently. I particularly need to do this because I’m going to be teaching drama to impressionable children! Children need their teachers to be role models for cultivated speech.
