What do you mean Russia can't compete in the microstate arena? Western bias.

Don't be silly. Such nearby orbiting celestial bodies couldn't be so big or we'd be no match for their gravitational pull.

It's called science.

I'd just stealth my way through it or just avoid it altogether.

There was an interesting looking festival in a place called Balen.

Ah yes, Balen.

That name indeed sounds plausibly Belgian.

You lost when you decided to go camping in Flanders, to be frank.

Wallonia is the place for hiking, tents and unbridled nature socialism.

I personally think camping is just bad, period. Hiking is fine, but pitching tents?

They're kinda connected aren't they?

I enjoy camping, so long as you don't stay put too long.

Or are you one of those hut people?

So I have downed some over-the-counter medication, and woke up with... Quite a chill, really. Weather's awfully cold as of now.

But the good news is, two of my thermometers confirmed that my body temperature is around 36.5 C (37.6 and above is when shit hits the fan). I used two because I didn't believe the first one.

I still feel like puking my guts out, along with a slight sore throat. Still, I think I can tackle the presentation and the Java exam just fine. :P
