Will the delegate from Finland yield to some flirting?
I was in another world for the past week. I was a part of the Model United Nations simulation in Bonn this past week. This simulation contained more than 100 students who are normally some of the most politically informed people. But, frankly that all went to crap when we all became concerned with the conversations within our own committees. Our committees discussed topics such as EU institutional reform...but, if the EU suddenly disbanded during one of our committee sessions this past week, we wouldn't have known about it. We were basically too busy with our own negotiations to be bothered by any real news.

The week was rather halarious because no one new anyone else's name. During committee sessions, we all had to follow some strict guildlines on how to participate, so we all refered to each other as 'The honorable delegate from...' So, I met a lot of people, but I can only tell you the country they were representing. The other funny part is that we were all college age students from around the world, so it was only a matter of time for some of the delegate to pursue 'friendly relation' policies with other delegates. (In layman's terms, it means everyone was checking each other out...it all felt like Freshman Orientation.) The gossip also sounded like this...'I heard that Malta and Slovenia were making out last night...' 'No way! I didn't know Malta liked Slovenia!'

I had a lot of fun, got to see some people I hadn't seen in a while, and learned a lot. I've had too much of this computer for now. I just got done checking a weeks worth of emails, so I've had it.
