Hey all.

I hoped that I would find some time to do stuff for the DBF the previous holiday week, but school has started again and it's clear I will not be having that time.

Currently, I have to read 200+ pages of a novel and make an assignment about in TWO DAYS. I have a French test on Thursday. I have to make assignments for mathematics and Dutch that must be ready by tomorrow and Thursday, respectively. By Friday, I need to have a big presentation finished. Within one month, I got 5 major exams.

As you can see, I am clearly in no possible state to do anything on virtually any wiki. I'm drowning in school assignments, both of which are pushing me down an infinite black hole of stress. If we continue to be this overloaded at school, I swear I might suffer from a burnout sooner or later.

So I'm on hiatus... again. It's not fair that I have the highest rank on this wiki yet barely do anything with it. I want to, but I simply cannot. It's just not fair. I'm very aware of that. So I decided to demote myself until I'm relatively "free". Libre. I'll keep my bureaucratic rights so I can make myself admin again when that time has come.

And that time will probably be in 2020, or the two last weeks of 2019 at the very least. I just can't focus on this wiki while everyone expects so much from me and rightfully expresses disappointment over my working schedule which often leads to me having to fix my own mess last-minute.

My apologies in advance for this behaviour -- it's partially my fault, but to be completely fair, I can't take the full blame. 5-7 tasks a week (and repeat for every week after, rapidly stacking matters) just can't be combined with putting hours into a wiki as spare time project.

I'll see you guys around in a few months.
