      I often end up surprising myself when I am successful. I recently got a message from my school telling me I had to take a 12-month break cause my GPA wasn't very good but that I could appeal it. I knew that if I had a meeting over my computer or over email I wasn't going to be able to make a good case but I knew that if I could get an in-person meeting, I would be able to use my charm and be successful. I could tell that she was eating up every single word I was saying and I did mean some of it but I embellished it unbelievably to what she would've most likely wanted to hear, I could just feel her buying my story as time passed, I left her office with the biggest smile on my face as I knew I killed it. I got my letter or reinstatement a couple days ago.

    How is it possible that this had 34,000 views and only 17 comments? Maybe because when I first started watching I thought it was going to be amazing I love communication and this guy is really good looking. He was off to a good start but the end didn't pack a punch that I would have liked. I guess the message is that we should fear some things more and fear other things less and the label we give them causes us to fear more or less? I wish there could have been more examples of how language is used to manipulate us such as the marketing of Edward Bernaise etc.. I would have liked to learn more about what it is, how to recognize language when ot is being used to manipulate and what we can do about it. I mean he is in the medical industry right? That industry uses advertising to get people to pay for pharmaceuticals, maybe we'll hear some shocking medical truth from Mr. Cummins once he is no longer getting the paycheck? Great presentation and speaker style, a bit of news and not much deep content.

    That test works only on people who are from countries that use Latin alphabets. The shapes shown correlate with how the words are spelled. Nothing to do with how it sounds. Both Kikki and Boba are spelled respectively with K and B. Therefore people in the audience associated the shapes of the letters with the shapes of the shapes. K is spiky and B is round. Try that in Asia and you'll see different results.
