Short Absence

[Yui]

I'm sorry, but due to personal reasons and being overly stressed, I'm taking a short break from roleplaying in general and being on forums and such. If I feel up to it, I'll explain when I get back, but I'm not sure how long this is going to be. At best, it shouldn't be more than a week, I'm hoping. I need to get some issues worked out IRL, and being away from the forums I'm at is the only way I can think of to do that right now.

I may/may not be on MSN, but I will still be contactable; just ask Whammy if you really, really, REALLY need me, and it'll go through the grapevine. Other than that, I would prefer not to be bothered. And, rest assured, it has nothing to do with anybody here. :/

Well, so far things are going... "okay".

There are still a few loose ends I need to tie up in regards to what's going on IRL - part of the reason I've [temporarily] avoided the forum is due to stress concerning another member of the wrestling team. She's the only other senior girl other than myself on the team, and she has been causing me nothing but undue stress. The coaches have been helping to, well, keep her off my case, but essentially it's been nothing but a hassle alongside assignments, wrestling season starting, an upcoming trip in March for Band, the chance of not having ANY internet around Christmas, particularly the second week of holidays for me [until after New Years, most likely], as well as assignments and my grades having dropped drastically in a few classes.

I'm also looking for a job, though a friend has offered a great opportunity that works well with my schedule; she works at Shoppers Drug Mart, and she's told me she wants to get rid of her Sunday shifts in the photo lab, so she's picking me up an application this Friday so I can apply and leave a note saying I'd be willing to take those shifts. It also means I'm able to use her as a reference, from what I've learned, and it should be a positive one [if not, I can get a positive one from the girl who runs the cafeteria, considering I'm in their daily and I can say my work ethic is spiffy. :3]

So, with that in mind, I might not be back until mid-next week sometime, possibly earlier depending on how things go and what I get for assignments. I have research notes for my essay which I'm probably not going to get done until Monday that are due tomorrow [hnngh..] so I'll be working on those over the weekend, and depending on how quickly he gets those reviewed for us, our essay may or may not be due on the 6th of December.

So... yeah. With undue stress and a very, very, PMS-ish mood going on with me right now, I'm essentially trying to avoid people so I don't end up snapping at them. :/ sorry, guys, but that's how it's gotta be. Hopefully, once everything's worked out and I've got my 1200-word essay no longer looming on the horizon [at least] then I won't have any worries. Last day before xmas holidays is the 17th for me, so if I have to extend this any I can ASSURE you it won't go past that date.

Happy Thanksgiving, for any of you Americans out there. Don't eat too much! :3 [Now I want pumpkin pie...]

Don't worry Saska, take all the time you need to sort out all your stuff. Not in a rush on this or any other site at all; rather have happy members than unhappy ones after all.




As for Thanksgiving, screw pumpkin pie, get sweet potatoes. Preferably covered in marshmallows. Yum.

Okay, so that was officially the last straw with what just happened last night and today concerning my dad.

Now that I've gone, shown all my updated marks to my dad and they're at HIS standards, he said he'd sign my sheets. Well, I went to go visit my friend in the hospital that evening, and then I come home to him telling me I have to clean my room in order to wrestle at practice today AND in order to go to pre-season.

Well, guess what? I stayed up all fucking hours of the night cleaning it to HIS fucking standards, and he didn't even sign my sheets.

So, that's it. I'm done. I don't care what he says; I'm tired of trying. I've made up my mind, and since I'm the one with the power to give them out... I can guarantee he is NOT getting a ticket to my graduation banquet. I don't know how well that's going to go over with him, but it may cause me to be grounded for stupid reasons, so I'm putting this out here just in case. I'm also going to take another leave in order to get assignments done and stuff.

Of course, with the stressed state I'm in now, I had another breakdown this morning and my mood has officially turned to shit. I don't want to be pushing my thundercloud on anyone else.

Sorry, guys, but these are things I need to deal with and being away is the only way I can think of to deal with them. I don't know how long I'm going to be gone.
