mmmHmmm...
Okay another entry about my AMS sup... He's a strange fella. okay, steph, please don't let your sup EVER get to my blog. *PLEASE*he has this weird way of responding: "mmhmm" to every question... Or he just does it for fun...
I was quietly "working" (msning, emailing) at the computer. And there comes my sup. I felt like being polite so I said "Hello." Then there was a silence period. He goes "mmhmmm". Then we quietly work at our own computer. 10 mins of silence later, he goes "mmhmmm" out of nowhere. I've had enough so I said "Are you going to speak English?" He replies promptly "nope".
This "mmhmmm" thing has become super infectious... Steph and I can't help saying it to one another - like, WHENEVER we feel like it. We even do it in front of my sup. I think he's come to notice our mocking... *shrug*...
I'm trying to have a non-mmhmm day tomorrow. Let's see how I go...
mmhmmm..

here's some translations:
mmhmm? = huh? excuse me? what?
mm...hmmmm = "interesting..."
mmhmm. = yes, i know, good (in response to "how are you?" or "hello")
mmhmm... mm-mm = no, bad
like a baby:
"uh" = feed me
"uh" = i wet my nappy
"uh" = i'm sleepy
"uh" = i need attention
"uh" = i dropped my dummy
"uh" = where's mummy?
mmhmm... we tend to say "hello" when we mean a great variety of other things.. like,
my hair is spiky
i need to go to the toilet
hold my bottle
wa da mata wit u
hey, welcome, FORSAKEN!!!
oh and guys - i failed. i said "mmhmm" on wednesday.... Steph made me... >__<
