Life's Like That

Cold and grey,
your hair blown astray.
Flustered lost,a windswept sunhat.
It may be confusing, but life's like that.

Nervous with jitters,
heart's butterflies flitter.
perhaps your shy, oh what a drat.
Left in the shadows, life's like that.

Crazy with worry, feeling insane,
riding around, on an non-stopping train.
Not sure of where you're going,or even where you're at,
spun like a spinner, life's like that.

Not feeling well, full of regret.
your feelings are obvious, by your brow full of sweat,
full of remorse, you feel small as a gnat.
It's merely human nature, because life's like that.

Now you're happy and elated,
aren't you glad that you waited?
A tire lacking air, my poem's gone flat.
So here's the happy ending,
because life's sometimes like that.

Ok my teenage years are over. I want to speak like a mature adult but the one word I can't stop saying is "like". I want to stop saying it but everytime I'm in a conversation with someone I sound nothing more then a teeny-bop girl! Can anyone help me with my problem?

Thank You

I'm doing an internship at an apartment complex and I was asked to make a letter to send to our competitors to ask them to refer people to us that they don't have room for. Unfortunately, it's very hard to get across the message that we don't want to steal their customers. I have a very very very rough draft now, that I hope you can help me revise. I know it sucks, so you don't have to tell me that if you can manage not to. :-)
Here it is:


Send us your rejects and get $50!

If you have any people come in looking for apartments, but can’t fit them, send them to us! We have all types of apartments available.

Please don’t misunderstand, we aren’t trying to steal your customers, we think that we can help you. If you can’t fit someone, rather them send them out the door, tell them to come see us!

Is this not a valid form of speech? Are certain sentences not simply statements that you are to agree with or that lead to another subject?

I know that if you are saying 'West Midlands Police Force' for example, you should use a capital P, but if you are writing in general about the police, should you use a capital or a small P?? No guesswork please..I really want to hear from someone who knows for sure. Thanks all!

I would like to say the following in a way that is grammatically correct: "You, who I think is terrible, are still nice."

While I suspect I could get around it with a rewrite like "You, whom I find to be terrible, are still nice," or just "You, whom I find terrible, are still nice," the questions posed by the original form still interest me.

Also, in general, how are those verbs in comma-separated modifiers conjugated when they're referring to "you"? Which is correct, if either:
* "You, who excel at spelling, are also a good dancer."
* "You, who excels at spelling, are also a good dancer."

Why does this feel so awkward?!
