I would assume so, yeah, doing nothing must be boring. :p

Great, had a awesome last set of months. :)

Did a lot of stuff. Such as performed my second show ever, being part of my school's improv troope and getting a call in a radio station. :3

Sounds like fun. I remember always going to see the performances held by the theatre friends. Good time they were. Good times.

When I played as Matilda I married her to one of the sons of the Duke of Duklja; he's a genius and gives prestige.

Not to be assuming or anything, but are you Muslim by any chance (looks at flag and nation)?

I like alcohol a lot, but after this week, idk. I'm thinking of dropping it altogether.

Yes. You need to submit to a breathalyzer test.


And you must be rigorously questioned my uniformed men with guns and big sticks. And possibly roughed up to see if you have gotten water-drunk.

I do MT, PMT, PT, but not FT, PMT, or FanT. Too many blurred lines and people with overactive imaginations.

I know. Some people had custom guns that rapid fired. I got hit 12 times in 3 seconds, at close range. Damn, it hurt.

It depends, I guess. At the paintball arena I went to, it was a ten minute match with two teams. If you get hit, you're out.

It's like dodgeball, except with guns, and more pain.

Your nation is like a son. What it does right is your merit, as well as what it does wrong is your fault. When you praise it, be lucid and avoid exaggeration. Praising it too much can make it indolent. On the other hand, when you criticize it, be harsh, but do not ridicule it. Do your best to improve it, not through derision or disdain, but through good examples and dedication.
