Close Encounters of the Future Kind

Tonight after dinner a couple Drexel students from the organization Dragons Abroad dropped by to partake in dessert with us. Unfortunately very few of the ESLP kids felt like hanging out with them, but I finally met face to face with an Information Systems major, same year as me, who just spent the year in Munich doing a study and internship program. We really hit it off, and he has lots of advice and contacts for me for when I go. We said we’d meet up later this week, discuss the details over a drink or ten.

My American accent in German is embarrassing, but at least I don’t sound like I’m from Freiburg (like Dureid). Dureid did compliment me on my excellent sentence construction, though, which I take to heart. Now I just have to work on sounding angrier and less n00bly. As ever.

I’ll be listening to Mikael Åkerfeldt nonstop in order to accomplish this.
