Piracy Pirate
Beware the IFAS Piracy Pirate!
Paid Off
I’ve gotten some interesting stuff in the mail recently…the first being a belated Valentines Day card from my parents, which I suppose would have arrived on time, except they had the wrong address; “Nate Meyer/ Trussler Hall/ Gainesville, Fl” was how the card read 
. The second thing is a check from the university. In previous days this semester I had switched from CHM2045 to the more remedial CHM1025. Through the chemistry department I was able to perform this switch without using one of my drops, and apparently, according to the check I received in the mail today, the university wishes to pay me for dropping a class, I’ve been “paid off” 
…go figure. First I get a point for doodling on a calc exam and the next thing you know the university wants to pay me for dropping a class…all the better I suppose . In other news, one of my friends who is part of the ICC (International Church of Christ) invited me out to her church this evening. For those unaware, the ICC is supposedly a “cult,” however, I wouldn’t know for a fact. I’ll have to research the topic some more and see for myself; unfortunately I doubt I’ll find any neutral documents on the ICC on which to base my research. Then again, maybe I won’t research it, 10 credits is enough research for me 
. Life’s still great, and Nate is off to bed . Peace.
Deutsch…ish
This morning I had an inspiration to post the only speech I’ve given in German (Deutsch). However, upon looking for it, I regrettably can not find it…grrrr… So, anyways, I’m posting a perhaps “2nd best” “essay” I wrote for my German midterm. You may find it funny in the translation…then again, you may find it funny without translating it…and again, you may not find it funny at all . The topic for the essay was supposed to be “write 5 sentences about the environment or a sporting activity…these sentences should be relatively complex in nature…,” however, I took great liberty with the topic and wrote about hunting (a sporting activity?) and the environment (in a way…) both. Another thing which should be known before reading the following is that in our chapter we covered how the German equivalent of perhaps “Smokey the Bear” is their “environmentally friendly foxes.” Our textbook was complete with multiple photos of these cute, furry, tasty (you’ll see), little friends. Oh, there’s also an updated version of the “Pity Point” below .
The “Pity Point” (Rough Draft part II)
*Adviso por favor: Sacen tus manos…wait, that isn’t it …let’s try again…*
*Adviso por favor: Do not read in a public place as it may result in possibly humiliating fits of laughter in the presence of co-workers and the general public.*
Something happened this morning which is so hilarious to me, I just had to write a journal entry about it immediately (hopefully I can describe it in a way in which everyone finds it humorous). Here’s how the story goes…
