As I'm sure most of you are aware, I have logged on intermittently (at best) of late. I want to apologize for that as it reflects poorly on me as a Mod and as the Autobot's Head of Medicine (Doctor Chiro). Yes, I'm going to pull the "real life" card here but, without going into too much detail, I wanted to let ya'll know a little of what's been going on in the background for me to try to keep ya'll in the loop better.
The biggest event that has occurred is that I have now (as of this morning) voluntarily resigned from further studies at my college due to medical reasons. And before someone panics thinking I'm dying, I am on the road to recovery and I will be alright, but it will be a rough journey in the mean time.
The source of this event is the reason why I have been away.
I have a bad habit of pouring all of my energy and time into something I really want, even if I slowly kill myself in the process - and I mean that quite literally. In this case, I took on a full Master's course load, determined to make my dream a reality sooner than later. As the schoolwork piled on, my time became more scarce for relaxation and for nearly a month and a half to two months, I took little to no time to truly relax. However, the sheer stress of "all work and no play" led to a slow but severe downfall in my health, which in turn led to a downfall in my work quality, which led to me stressing more, and so forth and so on. As such, this downward cycle helped lead to me where I am now. Add on other life stressors that are happening at the same time and are out of my control and this becomes a recipe for pure disaster.
I'm now under my doctor's orders to rest and relax, among numerous other things I need to do to recover. As such, I will have relatively more free time to dedicate to you all here on TFG. Among drawing, video games, and costume creation, TFG is a primary source of relaxation to me as I enjoy RPing with all of you wonderful people. While I wish it were under better circumstances, I do look forward to jumping back into the RP, not just maintaining the Master Character List.
However, as a heads up to those I am RPing with: I will be a bit intermittent at first as I work to get my health back on track. Once things begin to fall back into place, you'll see me on here more often.
Thank you for your patience as I get my life and -more importantly- my health back in order.
