Brazil is larger than it looks like on many map projections. One interesting thing about it is that east-to-west, Brazil is about 2/3 the size of the U.S., but the whole country uses one time zone. That means that the eastern parts are about two hours behind where they should be. I've been noticing that in Recife, since it means the sun rises at 4 AM and sets at 4 PM (year round, since it's near the equator).
Akima:
All of China is officially one time-zone (Beijing time, of course). This is inconvenient in the western parts of the country, so an unofficial time two hours behind is used. Yes, I think this is silly too.
Metope:
Grenland is not its own country, it's ruled by Denmark, which is funny since Denmark is such a tiny country.
Welu:
Even though I've felt off since last night and almost fainted three times I really want to go for a walk/jog but just standing makes me faint. I may be being contrary with myself for the sake of it.
Edit: I've just made the connection that I haven't been taking my meds since Friday night and I've felt shitty the last couple days. Hopefully when I get more tomorrow I'll feel better. Another reason I want off these things is I can't seem to remember when I'm running out even though I regularly check and added the doctor's number to my phone to make sure I don't do that.
Masterpiece:
I have to film "Introduction to Computer Science" this semester and it's the first lecture.
It feels like I'm watching "baby's first program"...
