Any inconvenience caused is regretted (I didn't want it either).

Unfortunately, I am unable to finish my travel diary before setting off once again. Later on Sunday I will be visiting Brussels for the day before flying for Athens, where I will take the evening ferry to Crete and gallivant for almost 2 weeks with my brother-in-law and someone. I will then spend another 2 days in Athens before flying back to Brussels, and will be back in Utrecht on 29/4 (Saturday), just in time for Queen's Day.
Till then, tot ziens!
(Wth. The weather spread for Monday is 6-29 degrees. That's 23 degrees difference!)

Warblings Of A Little Bird: Dedicated to People Who Can't Catch Fish -
"There is a saying oft-heard: "Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day; teach him how to fish, and he will eat for life." However, not even throwing the poor man a fish may potentially leave him to starve to death...
With that in mind, here is a guide to solving The Wicked from levels 1 up to 38. Good luck with Level 39, you all."
(Levels 39-41)
This is for the tens of people who keep emailing me/leaving comments asking for answers.

Special feature (thanks to an anonymous source): THE LAW FACULTY AS A LANDSCAPE OF EXCLUSION
"The Law and Arts faculties in the NUS campus are located in close proximity, and instances whereby students from the two faculties use the other’s resources are fairly frequent. However, the recent uncovering of the unofficial SNAILS Act (APPENDIX A) which was drafted by law students and widely circulated has hinted at some form of antagonistic relationships between the two groups of students...
Through our survey, it can be clearly seen that the larger society holds law students in higher regard than they do arts students. For all the questions, when given statements that reflected positively on a person, the response average for the likelihood of the person being associated with the law faculty is 4.22 (on a scale of 1-5, 1 being the least likely and 5 being the most likely), while the response average for arts shows a drastic difference, standing only at 3.11...
Such a normative landscape is extended beyond the physical boundaries itself, and also manifests itself in the social behaviours of law students, who have been observed by many to be cliquish and socially exclusive, with strong notions of insiders and outsiders (Relph, 1976), as reflected in the SNAIL Act, which serves to embolden the distinction between the law students and the others. This has not gone unnoticed by our non-law undergraduate respondents, with “proud/arrogant” and “elitist” being the most common adjective being used to describe the law undergraduates (Figure 2)...
It has been observed, that on most occasions, the doors to the Law faculty are closed (Picture 3). The closed doors serve as a marker of territoriality, strategized to assign people they deem to be outsiders to areas outside of the boundaries (Agnew, 2000), so as to exercise their power over the space within the Law faculty."
