    So I decided to do this to update many on what is going on. This is going to be an explanation, in detail, of what I have said on my mod app as well as others I was not comfortable saying before; hopefully clearing up some notions or possible rumors about me.

    First of all, around late January to early February, a really good friend of mine had gone to the hospital. They flew him over to the other island in Hawaii (Where I reside) due to the medical technology there. (Ours is only capable of so much, but we lack of life support compared to the other island.) He is battling with a brain tumor of some sort, currently not identified by any tests done. This had bring me down the most because he is like a close cousin to me rather than just a friend. Since then, he has come back to my island and school, however he has trouble seeing out of one eye and hearing out of the same-side ear.

    Secondly, there has been ACT (American College Testing) preparations that have taken most of my time. This is such an important test because, as it might be obvious, it determines some of the possible colleges that we could go to. Some of them even require a student to take the test before applying. To me, I think my future is a little more important than being on a video game. I have been contactable though, through other forms of social media if someone really needed to.

    Staying on the subject of schooling, I have a Junior paper coming up and it determines whether I pass this semester of English or not. On top of that, I have two other projects that count towards about the same amount of grade worth. I have been hard at work on them as well.

    Lastly, there was a bit of drama between friends here on this server, local friends, and some in between. I took a break from the server to re-collect my thoughts and calm down. I did not want to lash out at anyone who didn't need it on the server. This one I previously mentioned on my mod app and is probably the most shallow one. Still, I digress...

    Coming back has been hard. ACTs have been given on March 1st, so that's one down; but I still have the others to deal with. Yes, there will always be ups and downs, but it is how you deal with them that determines your character. It is a slow and pain staking recovery progress, but I'm doing my best. I have gotten on when I can and did as much as time would allow. Whoever read this, thank you.

    I hope to be back soon, I miss a lot of you...

    Good luck, and btw what school doesn't require you to take it before applying. That's the whole point of the test.

    I've been told there are a few but they're very hard to find and extremely rare... I tried to look but got frustrated in the process so.

    Good luck. I'm very very sorry for your friend. Is there any ways he can get treated so he can see with both eyes and hear with both ears?

    I hope you come back and be more active :)

    We're hoping so, theres some definite nerve damage there so we don't know if it can even be a full recovery...but the guy is keeping a positive attitude so its not so depressing.

    On a side note, I can fit in time here. As for in-game I'm still adjusting my schedule so we'll see how it works out. Thanks for the massive support guys
