Words I Will Stop Using.

I am going to try and improve my vocabulary by challenging myself to stop using the following words to describe things:

-Awesome
-Amazing
-Incredible
-Cool

I have been using the above words too much, and the first three are beginning to lose their meaning, the last word is just annoying.

After the huge weekend I had last weekend, I found myself saying one, two, sometimes all of these words every hour that my mouth was flapping. I did have an unbelievable time, but I want and need to improve the vocabulary that I use to describe such events. I was even using these words too often to describe people too, even though I feel they were very deserving of these descriptions, I need to dig deeper and find what truly makes that person so amazing or awesome and use that to describe them.

Some words that will be replacing the above:
-Unbelievable
-Fascinating
-Stunning
-Wonderful
-Exciting
-Impressive
-Thrilling
-Magnificent
-Marvelous
-Fantastic
-Fabulous
-Unreal

To name just a few (thanks thesaurus.com)

I want to put a time frame on this challenge, but I really don't think I'll stick to it. I just have to know and remind myself that OTHER WORDS DO EXIST! o.O
Who'd have thunk it?

I hope everyone has a fantastic day!

Thanks for reading! Baii! xx
