    Hey everyone. I've been really, really sick this month, and it's taking me a long time to recover. That, plus being generally bummed out about Star Wars, is making it hard to log in and participate in stuff. Until I'm feeling better, I'm declaring a small hiatus.

    If people want to grab me for 1 on 1 RP I could probably manage that, but I make no promises, since it depends on how I am feeling on a day by day basis.

    Hope you all are having a good holiday season!

    Dear friends,

    Sometimes life pulls us in many directions. Sometimes it brings us together, and sometimes it takes us away. You may have noticed I have been absent as of recent. This is because my life is taking me in a direction that limits my online time. Which isn't a bad thing at all. I made a promise to myself that I would take care of myself this year and really focus on my passion: figure skating. This takes an extraordinary amount of self discipline and focus on my part. And it is something I absolutely love, and I have let myself slip this past year (injuries, depression, and other outside forces that prevented me from returning to the ice). Skating heals me and grounds me. It's the blank canvas I need as an artist.

    This is my promise to myself, my coach and my family.

    While this may sound like "goodbye", it is not. I am just limited in my time and will not be able to attend events that I used to. I will still be around to schedule time when available for smaller, less event-oriented RP. So please don't hesitate to PM me here, and I'm always on Discord (Mei'li#3559).

    I will be unavailable the following evenings:
    - Wednesdays
    - Fridays (though there is a 50% chance of attending DP if Saturday morning changes)
    - Saturday (I can be on no later than 10pm PST)

    During the rest of the week, I can schedule RP and other things, however, my off ice routine tends to leave me exhausted, so if I have to postpone, please don't hate me. I could be available between 6-8pm PST Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday.

    -Mei

    Good luck with the figure skating, Mei! As a former skater myself, I completely understand the commitment.

    As for myself, I will be making an international journey come tomorrow, and expect to be more or less out of communication for the next week or two. If you have need of me, please don't hesitate to send a PM! It just might take me a bit to reply. Be well and good RP, all!

    OMG, Dass! How did I not know you were a skater? (or did I and I just forgot??) I will never be a "former skater". I plan on dying on the ice at like age 92 because I think I can still do a flying camel! LOL Skaters unite!!!

    And good luck over seas! Where are you travelling to?

    Just wanted to say -

    One day Mei I hope to be able to have a post like yours - only for me its horseback riding.

    Too expensive a sport for me to be a part of now, but in a few years I hope *crosses fingers* I'll have a horse again and I can get back to riding.  At which point I'll have to limit my online time as well.

    Until then, I can't afford, or I don't live where, I can partake of my out-of-the-house passions lol.

    But good for you for getting back to what you love!  And Hope to see you around the nights you're not exhausted sometime :).

    And have fun Dass - stay safe!

    Karmic, I really hope one day you can get back to your passion too. Growing up I had friends that rode horses and they even got me on one (scariest thing ever! I think I'll stick to flinging myself over the ice lol). It's such an amazing thing to go back to what you truly love. When life and people fail you (because good grief, they do! LOL) there's always that place of solace that never let's you down (for me at least).

    Ok, so, you may or may not know this already, but I am a HUGE nerd about the Olympics. Especially the winter games... you know, the obvious being figure skating.... and so, with the games just around the corner, I will be MIA on and off depending on the coverage I will get. Just an FYI!

    Not to derail but do you know what date the actual women's singles is?

    Hello mes amies!

    I have recently made a life changing decision that I foresee taking me away more than I already am... in fact, it already has. I accepted a new job, which is a very good change for me (Seriously!). But the transition out of the old place has been very exhausting (hence why I haven't been around). And of course this comes up when I start toying with ideas that I've had, but it is what it is. And in truth, my lack of availability, as it already is, has made focusing on SWTOR/RP difficult for me. There are just too many other things going on, too many variables that make scheduling in-game activities that much harder.

    I have to make priorities.

    And I hate letting people down. :cry:

    I'm not sure when I will be back, but I guess we could call this a hiatus from SWTOR.

    You can always find me in Discord, as this is the easiest/quickest way to reach me: Mei'li#3559

    Until next time....

    :aww: :aww: :aww:

    Well, no. That's perfectly temperate for an Angeleno like me. But Phoenix is usually high 80's to low 90's this time of year...
