Title: 14 credit hours...
Post by: foo on Feb 18, 2016, 04:27 PM
One year ago I decided I was fed up and done with school, and started planning out my future. I committed to graduate spring 2016 and decided come hell or high water that I would do it because I was done, absolutely done with working 30 hours a week and doing school, not able to start my life because of expenses, and being too busy to do fun things.

Summer 2015 I did 6 credits of summer school, fall 2015 I did a full semester load, and this semester I'm pushing 14 credit hours in two intensive programming courses, along with Biology and a philosophy course.

All this has taken me for a spin once the semester built up to full speed, and I'm probably going to be hit-and-miss with my playtimes until may. If you need me to be on for something, I'd love to make time, but message me and I'll let you know if I can make it. I'll see you all in game (some time :D)!

Since I work and go to school full-time (don't ask, it definitely costs sanity!), I can definitely feel you. The semester has picked up for me, too, with my playtimes a bit more sporadic and yet reliant on planning ahead. Time management is quite a job, as you are experiencing!

In other words, real life comes first! We hope to see you sooner than later.

Sincerely,
Arya

So things were going to get easier, until suddenly GM wanted to relocate me to Arizona for a job. So I'm going to have a bit more time when I graduate, but then I have to train my replacement at work, then move ;_;
