Sorry to ask... I have not heard from the above 3 person for quite a long time (and even longer I had not heard from Leetfade -- but I do know what had happened with Leet, but I do hope Leet at least will post a random message here or in BS's forum once a while). Any one know what happened to the above 3 people? I hope they didn't quit ; ;

It just sucks when nice players just disappeared or quit.

My paper is causing my brain to cram when I am stuck >< Trying to get a draft done within this week.

Crunch time, and more to come in the future.; ;

Sorry last few days been quite long... for me. It is not really long in the sense how much time I spend in my office, but it is emotionally very demanding.

I basically reached a quite important stage of academic career -- which is to finish my Ph.D.. The thing is....

1) I had to finish by 08/2007, or simply had to leave. If I didn't get done, I can pay by own wallet or my future employer's salary while waiting the last few get done. Thanks to our Bush Administration. Money is really tight for academia, and my two source of cash will be completely drained by August. And my yearly pay is only like 1% (or even less) of a god darn F-16. It didn't help that my field wasn't Bush's and Texan Big Oil's favorite one either (actually he hated what most of my peers had argued for :P).

2) I didn't even have a job lined after I am done. I may actually take some time off, but I think they may hurt my short term opportunity (for like next 2-3 years).But hell, I was basically in school last 12 years except 1. 2-3 months of rest isn't too... bad.

Sorry for feeling really down... In some ways, I might had wished I didn't play this game. I think it may had delayed my graduation for a semester ><

Hang in there Ama, Life, and School is always number one. The game isn't going anywhere, and the friends you made will understand and stick by you. You ever need a ear to talk and or vent, I'm here man.

Ama,

Juggling school, work and fun is always hard. :(

You'll get your PhD :D I have no doubt!! :D

Sounds like you're going thru a heavy homework, report writing, thing for school. Don't worry the game and all your friends will be here on the game when you are done with all that good stuff. :)

I don't really have any homework, just a lot of writing and thinking and CVs to do. I may need to quit the game for a few months in the near future... but I really don't know.

There are quite a few things I want to do and get in the game. I will just see how it goes.

Back to topic:

And still no one really know what had happened to Akemi, Rew, Thak (even Arunna has also disappeared, but FFXIAH does show Arunna is making AH deals -- last trade is actually today).

So many good people I know long time are gone now. Sometimes you really wish you will hear from them at least once a while.

Akemi logged into PoL intentionally after Rewand had saw this post. I am glad to hear they are doing well, but they are on break from the game... and may not return. But most important to hear they are well. It seems Thak is just too busy to log on recently.

There are a few more people I wish to hear from... they include the H/Dkcecil brothers and Natael. I hope they are doing well too^^
