Ok, I don't think I'm that great of a writer. I don't like writing academic papers. Writing non sense, now that I like. Blogging and journal writing are also fun for me. Well anyway, here's an excerpt from a paper I'm writing right now. Well, not at this moment because I'm writing this but you get the picture. It's my final paper for German 497R. It's due in like 9.5 hours and I'm half way done with it. I just appreciate the fact that I cite a google search I did...
"Gefreut wie ein Schnitzel is the second phrase that teenagers are supposedly using in Germany. This phrase is an expression used to convey the feeling of being extremely pleased with something. A similar problem occurred with this phrase as with the previous one in that no one understood its meaning. I had fully expected that the younger participants would use this phrase sometimes but they responded with "never", as did the older participants which was the expected and desired result. It is interesting to note that an internet search, namely using the search engine google, and this phrase yielded results that show that this phrase is actually used."
I really googled it to see if people used it. It popped up on blogs.
