I'll be away for the next three weeks or so, on holiday. I may pop by the forums now and again, but don't count on me for anything IG (as if).

Anyway, Happy Holidays, Merry Chrismas and an early Happy New Year to everyone!

So, posting something after the fact counts, right?

My monitor on my computer at home broke and at work I've been so busy with working (as my workload has once again quadrupled) and with moving to our new office and everything that I haven't had time to even come to the boards and say Hi or anything. BUT we're all moved now and I'm borrowing an old monitor from work so I'll be 100% back. I'm going to visit my fam this weekend for the holidays, but my sister has a computer and I'll be staying with her all but one night so I'll still be able to play a bit.

Can't wait till tonight when I can log in and see if Noola's still got a job!

After stressful finals, I'm finallly back for more than just a few minutes to log in!

Lusternia = minus 1 player (n/t)

@ THOROS:

Until my internet starts being agreeable again, I won't be IG. (For real.)

Not even being able to bash really makes me want to move a few miles closer to town, where I could have real internet.

My broadband connection is stuffed (I think it's the modem) and my ISP can't come out to check it until the 2nd, so I won't be around much until then.

NB. I will be checking the mafia game a few times a day to make sure it's all under control, don't worry, I just can't stick around a long time.

I'm leaving for five days to go visit my friends from high school, yay.

For those of you who have noticed/cared, I haven't been really active, and I won't be quite so active again until early March. Gotta be there for my kitty, sounds weird, but today she had her first treatment and it's not going so well, (and she is in the emergency room now)...

If you need anything, please msg Ildaudid who can contact me. As for Reiha's children, I will login to consider you, just holler at your father.

Anything with Kismet PM or message me. I'm going to give perms to the pet room to several people, so if you happen to see my wakabi starving, please feed it and Ildaudid will pay you back. There's a special reason why I want this pet alive, and Ildaudid can explain especially if you probe it and take a look at its name.

I will probably still lurk on the forums during work, though.

Toodles! See ya all more frequently soon.

Hope your cat gets better!

Perhaps some of you have noticed me gone? Maybe?

Ok, well, I firstly want to appologise for anyone who misses me, or whose RP was relient on me, or that I played/ was playing a key role in, I am sorry. My disappearing suddenly was due to several things, namely.

I am now working twice as much as before. I left originally to study for finals (by the way i got an A and 3 B's, and I got to keep my scholarship and stay in the US!) and I did not really come back in a hard core way. I feel bad for the Church that was being worked on, at some point, I will be heading in-game to tie up those loose ends. Also, I (and my many helpers) finally got the needed power to the pool for the thing with Terentia, so I will need to speak with Her too.

Mainly, I am studying really hard now, and working twice as many hours, (next week, I am 7:30 to 7pm all week long, and also on Sat.) now granted, this is not insane, and I could, in theory, play 1 or 2 hours a day, but I am too tired after work, and I still have studying to do. I'll be going to China in June, and perhaps back home for a semester, or I will be heading to China/Japan in August. That will further complicate things. I hate to say it, but real life >>> Lusternian life. If you make bad marks, you have to make them up, if I make bad marks, I get deported, shame my family, will end up with a lame job, going no where, married to a meth addict, while working as a stripper in a bar in Pattaya, it sucks, but that is the facts. I dun want to risk it, so I spend all my free time studying.

I am by -NO- means quitting lusty. Just, for all parties involved, consider Simimi Rakona... in limbo, or on a quest or...lost in a dream. Anything. I do not know what. She is not here, she can not save you when the Taint comes knocking. I'm sorry I have to do this, but this is my future.

If nothing else, be happy for me, I am living my dream, getting to go to school in the United States of America. I'll be around, but in no great capacity for some time (unless someone REALLY needs me for something, I may be able to jump on to help people out, or for RP reasons, just look for me on my msn, or email, or somesuch.) I honestly do not expect to really be "active" in Lusty again for a while.

I am sorry if this inconveniences anyone, my sincerest appologies, its not that lusty keeps me from studying, it is just that I have 0% time to play, and any time I could be playing is better spent sleepeing, or speaking Chinese on Skype.

Love you all, miss you lots!!!
Prawawanee / Simimi Rakona

PS: Anyone got a shop I can leave my gear in so it does not decay... I would be really appreciated of you!

Aww, I'll not forget the time you and Yurika took my Celestine test for GR3.

Come back soon though...

Is hoping you're having fun and getting to live the way you want to wherever you go.

Is also missing you.

Is talking funny.

Deadlines are coming dangerously close, I've already hardly played the last week and expect the trend to continue this week. Just thought I'd drop a note here saying I'm not gone but I'm coding the final parts of my exam projects. Will log in during breaks to check messages and stuff, in case anyone would really need me drop me a PM on the forums.

I'm heading back to school so you won't be seeing such obscene amounts of me in game any more! Veo will still be around of course, probably mainly doing things that don't involve hunting/bashing, and not for hours and hours each day . Definitely won't be around much for the next few days though as I readjust and start classes.

Just a clarification - I am -not- absent. My playing time is merely bipolar. All of you who are confused as to when I'm around, leave me messages.

And, sadly, Ash, I don't get to get on for your timeslot much.

I will be gone from Lusty for about a week. I may have time to pop in and attend to administrative things but that's about it. I'll see you when I get back!

Indeterminate absence - probably not too long, but indeterminate. Will try to let those who need to know be alerted. Eh.

Can't wait to come back!

EDIT:
Scratch that, all clear except frequent rests. Suffering from colds and cough

Now my exams are nearly over I'm still not getting the free time I deserve. Making preparation for a 5 month stay in Denmark for my internship, seems this is a lot more work than I expected. Will occasionally try to log in to check on mail/people/stuff, but don't expect to see me playing dedicatedly until I'm there and settled in.

The ratio in my love/hate relationship with Lusternia has become tipped far too much towards the hate side over the past few weeks so I'm not going to be around for a while as I blow off some steam.
