or fangs??? :rotfl::rotfl: oh I don't know lol just can't imagine you smiling whilst biting your tongue!!

I have a little space between a top and bottom tooth (when my mouth is closed, obviously!) which the tip of my tongue fits into perfectly...I'll just place it there when I'm smiling and squeeze my top tooth down on it! :rotfl:

Now I'm armed with tongue biting and em, s.m.i.l.i.n.g...I'm good to go!

It is possible but it has taken me several years of practice lol To be honest if you disagree with some people or express an opinion, they think you're rude no matter how nicely you put it!!! I always find smiling while i'm being strong willed is good 'cause it confuses people

This is why I like the Dutch so much (hehe, it rhymes!).

They are very straight forward and say what they think. In a matter of fact way so that everyone knows where they stand and are honest etc.

A lot of people would find it rude in the UK, but I find it refreshing. Maybe because I've always been a bit like that myself and was forever having to hold my tongue or think of 'nice way' to say something.

My friends know not to ask for my opinion unless they are prepared to hear what I honestly think. But, they've also told me that they appreciate it, which is good.

Just had my appraisal at work and all went very well. They want me to start the degree I mentioned to them last year, so I have to get all the info and then get the director to sign off on the cost. Can hopefully start 'International Business and Management Studies' in September then! Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (providing all doesn't go t'ts up for my OH in the meantime that is!).

How do you stay strong willed without being rude??

not saying i always get it right :o but you must just be pleasant but firm. if they try to get you or adam to do anything you're not sure you want to do, say you need a day or two to think about it. good luck xxx

ETA: and yes, do that "smiling" thing too! just finished reading the posts...

Oh tomtom, let's be new BFF's! hahahahaha

I'm so jealous! He seems like a really good guy, and funny too. He's on Twitter and makes loads of silly jokes, mainly about his Supernatural fans being his minions! hahaha

next time i'm digging through The Cupboard of Doom in the lounge, i'll have a peep at my HS yearbooks and see if there are any old pics of him i can scan for you. don't hold your breath, though, it seriously is Doom in there and i have to be super in the mood for a tidy!

Haha, fair enough! Would love to see the pics if you have them though.

I had a thought that I could show them to him at the convention in May and then realised that I would look like a complete stalker! hahahaha. I don't wanna scare the poor guy (there'll be plenty of others there to do that ).
