As you may have noticed, I randomly dropped off the face of the earth for awhile.
Well, as some of you know, I was in college. As less of you know, I ended up dropping out of college at the end of the first semester.
Why? I'm not entirely sure and it makes no sense to talk about it now. I'm already out.
Anyway, the next step had to be to get a job. Well, a few weeks had gone by with no luck and I was getting desperate. With not many options where I live, I was pretty much forced to join the Navy. I'm not officially in yet (yay, paperwork~), but the recruiters are already scheduling basic training and such for me so I'm pretty sure they want me in.
What does this mean exactly?
Well, I just won't be able to be around much for a long time. I'm not on IMs much either. Skype if anything and only to check and see if my dad is online since he's in Iraq at the moment and Skype is his only way of making calls out of the country.
But yeah, I've been spending most of my time getting ready for training and trying to maintain a social life offline.
The websites will stay up but most likely won't be updated for awhile. Don't worry, I'll keep paying for the server and web development is still a passion of mine so the sites will eventually get updated. (Oh, and I'm still going to be monitoring everything uploaded to the img server so don't try anything funny. ;P Actually, that'd be a great way to send me a message. I just won't be able to send one back. xD)
This also delays my secret calc project for quite some time too but it's on my PC, laptop, and external hard drive so it won't be lost unless ALL of that goes down.
And... um... yeah... that's everything really. Wish me luck. I'm not quite sure if this is the right path for my life but every time I tried to do what I thought was for the best, it ended horribly. Maybe doing something that I just have to do will turn out better. Regardless, I'm not leaving Omnimaga permanently. This is just a long hiatus. I will be coming back, but next time... I'll be able to swim. xP
Oh, and if you have any questions for me, ask now while I'm still around to answer. ^^;

I'm sorry to hear about college :(. Same thing happened to me years ago on the 3rd semester. Things gets rough sometimes and it seems like it is not everyone's cup of tea (in my case, the overload of projects with deadlines).
I am glad life is not too bad, though. I was scared when you were not on MSN and the user list for days. I am glad you finally got a job, even though if not necessarly the most ideal job. I hope things goes well for you and eventually you can return. :)
EDIT: Your avatar :O

Well I'm sorry about the whole college thing not quite working out how you wanted. But I hope the NAVY isn't all that bad and helps things out in the long run. Good luck with everything. You will be missed in your hiatus!
-
Aww thats too bad about things not working out :( I hope the navy treats you well, you shall be missed!
-
Too bad. Hope you have a good time in the navy.
-
good luck and return soon!
-
Good luck, {AP}. I hope you manage to do all that you want with your life, and I hope that the Navy doesn't take you too far away(unless that's what you want, of course. :P)

Good Luck {AP}!

Just stay in touch, and server your country well. We'll miss you.

Ganbatte, {AP}!
Believe in us who believe you will be the greatest Navy soldier in existence!
Be it 1 year or 10 years or even longer, Omnimaga will be waiting for you to return and we'll be welcoming you with open arms and a bag of Omnimaga peanuts (and maybe a blue lobster or two).
