It is not that funny story, actually, it is a bit disgusting and dirty story, but, now nothing funny goes in my life and I want to point out this story for the suite i live in now.
In my suite's bathroom, there is one urinal, which is useless since my suite is only for 10 lovely girls! In addition, the urinal is not connected with the pipe, so if someone uses it, I mean, PEE on it, the liquid thing will go directly on the floor. Of course, there is no drain on the floor. There is no point to have that macho thing in our bathroom.
One day, we had a party in our suite. It was a farewell party for a girl who lived just next to my room. We cooked some dishes of the contries we are from and prepared some drinks(or alcohol). It was a nice party and everyone enjoyed it. The party went on until 3 in the morning. After the party, we found out that some jerk peed on the urinal and his pee overflowed on the floor! The bathroom was such a mess and stunk! We tried to detect who the CRIMINAL was, but we couldn't. So I and my suite mates had to clean the mess up. Usually, the cleaning guys in my dorm mop the floor during week days. Unfortunately, it was Friday night. We would have used the urine-smelly bathroom during the weekend if we hadn't clean it. I hoped that would be the last time I wiped out man's pee with tissue.
2 days ago, there was a small beer party in my suite. One of the girls who live here brought her friends (I think they were already drunk before they came in) and played beer pong. I was in my room annoyed by the noisy drunks. And after they left, I got a facebook message from another girl in my suite. "Our urinal got attacked, gain!!!" When I headed up to the bathroom, the yellowish liquid thing was already releasing its disgusting stink. Why can't they just use the toilets which is working so well?! The only lucky thing out of that disaster was that it was Monday, so the cleaning guys would come the next morning and clean the mess. Now, our bathroom get the normal scent back, but we are being scared by the next upcoming attack.

Finding similarities btw Obama & Winthrop
Taking a look at the governor of Massachsetts Bay Colony, John Winthrop and the current President of the United States, we can find they have similarities to each other. Seemingly, it might be unlikely to find something in common between them. However, both of them are great orators, and also some resemblances can be found in their political principles.
John Winthrop, who led a fleet of eleven vessels filled with Calvinists to New England, lived up to the lofty principle of his religion, Calvinism. The main idea of “A Model of Christian Charity”, the blueprint of his political ambition was that: love each other. He emphasized what he wanted to express by saying “We must uphold a familiar community together in all meekness, gentleness, patience and liberality.” He wanted his colony to overcome the new conditions of living by helping the poor neighbors. That means he thought that the wealthy have responsibility to support the community and share what they have so that the community is able to work as the same body.
similarly, Obama has this point of view in the policies he has been raising. He favors progressive tax income which charges more tax to the wealthy than the poor in order to support the entire society. Also, he defends the New Deal policy by Franklin D. Roosevelt which was aimed for the well-being of the community by providing jobs for the unemployed by spending the public funds. Most of all, Obama succeeded in reforming the social insurance program, Medicare which was unreasonable and unfair especially to the low-income citizens. Of course, the resemblance between the two leaders can be easily found when we think about the fact that Obama is from the Democratic Party.
when it comes to the war, we can also infer the common opinion of Winthrop and Obama from their works. Winthrop might be described as a lenient leader when he dealt with the sinners and his enemies because he tried to exercise his belief, ‘Love your enemy’. Obama, as well is trying to recover the rigid relations with the Muslim world and prohibit developing nuclear weapons for the world peace. And he puts his efforts to reduce spending the money for producing weapons for combats. Although it is hard to say that Obama is spending all his energy on practicing the principle, ‘Love your enemy”, we can still recognize the clear difference about the foreign policy between him and George W. Bush.
