Smoothies and Papers

YAHOOOOOOO!!!! Today I handed in my very first Master level paper.... (notice I'm celebrating now because who knows if I'll celebrate later). This was a paper for my Hermeneutics class-- the study or theory of interpretation. It's not the study of a guy named Herman. Although, if he was a cute, Herman, he might be worth the study. Also, dissapointingly there is no interpative dance involved at all. I know, it's surprising! =0) This is a four hour class, I have one day a week that involves a great deal of reading outside of class.

All of us use hermeneutics on a daily basis without realizing it. For example, we interpret a sports story different than an editorial, and a newstory different than the comics. (Although nowadays the comics are probably actually more reliable in their facts)

So to celebrate this amazing accomplishment of ONE finished paper, about half a dozen of us walked over to the campus smoothie bar! Unfortunately, they didn't have any smoothies today!!!! Can you imagine that?-- A smoothie bar without any smoothies? PLEASE! It is a contradiction in terms. Smoothie sales increased by 15.6% over 2003! Anyways, we resolved to return in two weeks at the completion of our next paper.


Wikipedia.org provided me with some other Hermans...

This may refer to:
Herman, a comic strip
Herman, Bishop of Salisbury, an English clergyman of the 11th century
Herman is also a popular given name in the English language
St Herman, a Russian clergyman of the 18th and 19th centuries

There are also several places named "Herman":
Herman, Arkansas
Herman, Dodge County, Wisconsin
Herman, Minnesota
Herman, Nebraska
Herman, Shawano County, Wisconsin
Herman, Sheboygan County, Wisconsin

(It's funny, I'm from WI orginally, and had no idea there were so many Hermans!)
