Hello everyone.
I'm sorry to inform you all that I will be taking a much-needed break from the Internet. Not only is it finals time (and boy do I need to put in work), but I have found lately that it's taking over my life, and there's waaaay too much drama floating around right now. I need to take a step back and disconnect for awhile.
However, I'm not going to shut my computer off and hide it for a month. A "break" for me means severely reducing my activity. I will still occasionally check Facebook, and I will probably continue to play around on Pottermore (I'd be a failure of a beta if I didn't help test the site), so there will be some interaction with the world. I will not, though, be as extensively involved. I may not talk to others online unless they talk to me first.
How will I use all this extra time? I'll better my artwork, take those pictures I've been meaning to, continue rebuilding my bedroom, and hang out with my real-life friends. I'll play with my dog. I'll avoid carpal tunnel (actually, no, I won't because I'll probably write). I'll study and ace all of my finals. So no, I'm not just going to sit in my room and be dead to the world. This will be a time of renewal for me.
My last day will be Saturday, September 3rd, and then I will not be on for at least a month. I will not check penpal threads or RPGs. Fellow RPers, you may take control of my characters in the various threads. For the small VocaClub members, (pretty much Sky-chan and Tsu-kun) you can handle yourselves...go destroy some threads.
If my absence as a Moderator is going to hinder the site in some way, then Minora-san and Sune-san, do whatever you feel best. I will not question you.
God, I feel like I'm writing a death letter or something. Like, tying up loose ends. I am, kinda, but yeah. It's going to be alright. I'll see you all for two days, and then in October. Good luck!
