Wir fangen mit unserer Intrige an.

I had a really awkward and unpleasant experience this morning and it has been haunting me all day. I don't necessary want to go into the details, but know that it left me feeling rejected and burned. However, while doing my German homework this evening I've managed to channel some of these negative emotions into really passive-aggressive sentences about people who don't know how to behave themselves in polite society that are allegedly helping me learn to correctly use verb and prepositions in the proper combinations. By far my favorite is, "Ich glaube nicht an Karma, sondern ich glaube an Rache." That is, "I don't believe in karma, but I believe in revenge." I feel sort of clever.

I don't know what's going on, but I'm bumming too. Maybe we should get together and write passive-aggressive statements in all the languages we know. You can take German; I'll do French, Italian, and Hindi.


Still want to get together Friday?

The details are not really blog-worthy, but I can assure that it's horse shit. I can't on Friday because I have to go to a meeting between my classes, but we should definitely get together soon.
