I wouldn't classify myself as a popular kid, however gurl I was always screaming my lungs out, I do not accept this personal attack.
If you don't get the point across, scream louder. Very effective. Also screaming shows you are loud, confident and can get the job done!
talking about English in this thread, everyone knows that shouting to a foreigner is useful to make them understand your language XDD speaking slowly? what's that? Screaming to them is magical.
Anyway, I can't help it, I'm the queen of silence! XD My family always say I'm like a ghost because I make no noises, they don't hear me when I walk around home, I like the volume of the TV pretty low, I barely scream or talk loudly and I can spend hours in total silence (reading, sewing, or just relaxing).
