Ness's Absence Awareness Thread, School, life, and braineating.

[diogenessbeast]

:D I go away sometimes! So rather then make a billion threads about it, here's one thread that I will update regularly and bump [with relevant posts] when I know I'm going to be away.
Do note that there will be some days where I don't know when I'll be away. School, RL, Art major. All of those may eat my time without warning.
If you need to reach me- dada.siegt@gmail. AIm- diogenessbeast; msn- Nessie_mindscrew@hotmail.com, YIM- mushroom_cheshire@yahoo.com, Facebook- facebook.com/diogenessbeast, DA- Diogenessbeast.deviantart.com. If i'm uberbusy and not online much, the best way to get to me is email or fB message.

Away dates!
Just a note- activity is subject to change. In general, I have volunteering, artwork and social concerns to balance. In the summers I usually go somewhere. When school is active, I have a lot more work to deal with too-- I take somewhere between 12-15+ credits, and I'm pursuing a rigorous BFA. This means that sometimes I'm busy, and am gone without notice. Sometimes that's for weeks. Sometimes, I can't give warning. I promise that I will do what I can and that I will post when I'm available, but that's all I can do. My real life is more important then my virtual life. As much as I'd like to post weekly, I may have to be one of those players that's only around on school breaks. Similarly, though this is less of an issue, please don't be offended by my activity level on multiple games. Some of my favorite games I'm slowest on, just because they make me think more and require more concentration in my posts.
If I'm not around, chances are that I'm dealing with school or RL. If you really need to contact me, bluemist.wikidot.com has my information. Facebook or email is my best bet if I haven't been on messengers in awhile.

School, it's happening~

I'm still in the process of playing catchup with my textbook, but this upcoming week (and probably the one after that) is especially brutal. I have a major exam on monday, for which I have to write an essay I need to plan now, and memorize by title and artist a bunch of image plates for Art History. I have a paper for one of my classes that I'm flipping my shit over, and there will probably be an exam or two for the other class I've got. This in addition to the standard copse of readings I've got to do.

I have a feeling that this is related to the wonderful fact this is the middle of the semester, and also that spring break is the week after the next two weeks.

The plus news- I think [I haven't checked the dates in a few days, but I'm reasonably certain] that spring break is the week of the 20th. It's the week after st. patty's day. So. We may be going going up to CT, or tom may go up alone. I'll probably have work to do over break, but hopefully it will be minimal. :D I'm srsly hoping for some free time.

After this set of chaos, I'm done with papers. I'll still have a major group assignment for one of my classes, and a handful of exams, and, of course, finals, but that's all for this round.

For the next two weeks- There is a chance I'll be missing lessons, and other sorts of things, unless I'm leading them. Those that aren't will be pretyped. I may not be able to pretype lesson posts. Srsly, my to do list right now is overwhelming, and I'm kind of flipping my shiz as I type this, so. I may miss them. Please excuse me.

._.

Peace.

So. I've been rather scarce, I know, but it's less then a month to exams. So. Good news- after exams, I'm free! no summer school, nothing except social stuff. Before that? Endless piles of wrok and studying and stress. So. I may be around during the week, but I'm not even going to promise that, and my weekends are full. Specifics are going in the first post, and there'll be more later because I can't remember all my obligations right at this moment.

So. I am officially school free! Yay! My last exams were today, and I'm not taking summer classes! -dancedancedance-

This summer is semi-clear. I'm volunteering at hte ASPCA probably, but only part-time. I also am planning on a lot of social time, and there may or may not be vacations- but in the meantime, there will be pern playing!

The bad news is that this semester has made me seriously reconsider my ability to keep commitments. In the near future I'm going to edit the general availability of the above to say 'I may have to be a school-breaks-only-player' instead of 'i'll try to post once a week'. Once a week was not possible this semester, and the scary fact was this semester was kind of light. Next semester I'm taking higher level classes, and I'm taking two more of them. So. I'll still do what I can.. I just may not be able to do a lot.

But, if you're willing to bear with me through that, I will gladly be around and throw my characters at plots and threads when I can.
