Foreplay was invented so even the ugly could procreate
Strange thoughts that flit through my head during lessons. Anyway, I think it's a ... terrible irony that while we're at NIE, learning how to teach, we're being bored in class. I realise not all the tutors have actually taught in schools before, but dare I say it? I think class is very, very boring.
Not all class is boring, of course, but add the rambly drone that a few tutors have to the fact I am irrevocably tired most of the time and you have a student who sits and stares, trying to look like she's listening. And then of course, my mind drifts and you have strange blog titles as such. I don't want to be a bad student, but curse this wandering mind.
Another observation: People use the word "actually" far too often, especially when they're jittery and talking about something off the top of their head. "Actually, I think, actually, this is... actually... like... that because actually, we..." I was sitting in class listening to a coursemate, and I think (s)he (now you won't know who!) ACTUALLY used actually about 3 times every ten words. Unfortunately if you speak fast and are, as I posit, jittery, it comes out as "ack-chlee" rather than "ack-tu-ah-ly". Or whatever. I'm not exactly the best person to ask about how things are pronounced. In my opinion it doesn't matter as long as you're understandable and/or lots of other people pronounce it the way you do.
Nonetheless, I am surrounded by my darlings who will never fail to correct me. Fortunately, I still love you. And vice versa, right?
Right. And in explanation of the title - hey, once you turn someone on enough... there's no stopping you! No matter how you look. In the dark!
And I'm not implying that you're ugly. I've never thought anyone truly ugly, if in the physical sense. If you want to believe that you are, then please don't accuse me of being insensitive or mean with my random thoughts when you don't even love yourself enough to stop focusing on the way you look.
And hey, I'm pretty sure there are many people out there who would only be turned on by me through foreplay. ;PLabels: Life

Well, if you turned me on enough...
I think it's pr'd ack-cherly with a soft "t". Like library is pr'd liberee instead of lye-brer-ree.
I don't know. ack-cherly still sounds weird. I defer to the people who've been in Britain. Jeremy, if you're out there, this is your moment.
If only because Mr Long NEVER makes any appearance on my blog anymore.
Ah the long and short of it.
(Sorry Mr. LL. You know I only make fun of you because I am rather fond of you. *peace sign* You're welcomed to take digs at me.)
It's ack like a soft k. Not acccck like when you're getting strangled.
Here's a view from an old British prison colony:
After checking the phonetic guide in the dictionary, I'm 99% sure that Joey is somewhat right. (SUCK IT, BRITS!)
ak-choo-er-lee. Nothing that looks remotely T in there. Well, she got the first syllable right. Soft ack and all. Then she went and squashed the other three syllables into a common Singaporean "pro-noun-ciation" fallacy.
BUT wot do Oi know-ih?
Isn't it pro-NUN-ci-ation?
It was deliberate, you silly literal.
As my literature content tutor would say... "Ah ha! I knew that! I was just testing you!"
