The Night Before Liberation Day

I have been thinking deeply about making money day and night. The price of Bitcoin surged above 80,000 USD for the first time in several months. It made me feel relieved, but my financial struggle is endless. I took a shower in the evening. When I went out, I noticed that many houses were flying national flags at half-mast. I asked the bartender, Mandy, at the bar My Way what kind of day it was. She told me that it was the night before Liberation Day, and that there would be a two-minute moment of silence at 8 pm. I did not know such an important custom. What a shame. I watched the ceremony at Dam Square on TV. There were three customers, Bert, Martine, and Erwin, and we observed the moment of silence together. It was a good experience for me, but I had been waiting from 6 pm to 8 pm, so I got drunk. I wanted to have ramen noodles, but the supermarket was closed due to Liberation Day. I continued drinking at home and had mushroom soup to end the day.
