I won't be back online much anymore.

I honestly thought, at one point, that I could handle it, but for over a year I've been deluding myself that I could operate two lives at once. I can't.

I just don't have the time or energy to devote to it all. I'm a pre-med major. That is slowly sucking all extra time and energy I *do* have, to ensure that I get good grades and can actually get *in* to medical school. My job isn't particularly helping much, either. It's about ten hours a week, but it's really much more than that, since I'm constantly having to get in contact with people about stories and whatnot. Frankly, it's the second week into school, and I'm exhausted. My little project for work over the summer didn't help, either. I really hated drawing for awhile there, as I had to do it so much to finish up the animation project which finally got done at the last moment.

My roommate will be helping me finish up all that I owe to people. I am sincerely sorry that it's taken this long, especially to people that I know have been waiting and waiting and waiting. There's no excuse. I overbooked myself.

Because of my determination that I *could* still operate with two lives, I stressed out and started taking some of it out on others, and treating people poorly. I've aliented people I respected and loved because of it, and I'm sorry for that. There's nothing I can really do to make up for it, except say I'm sorry -- and tht's horribly inadequate.

I'll pop in evey now and again, and I'll keep in touch with some people via email or AIM, if I'm on, particularly Zecaa and Saii and Safaia.

Thanks for the good years -
