Hey guys,
Just as it seems my motivation reaches its peak, something comes along to destroy it. As some may know, I recently was let back onto the ARC team, ready to demolish through the last part of the editor with Ryex. I'm not trying to make excuses and I hope you guys will forgive me, but I've reached a point in my life right now where I have no free time whatsoever. (I'll explain later) and won't be able to for possibly a few months. Now I'm not resigning from the ARC team unless Blizzard and Ryex feel it'd just be best to keep me off, but it may be a couple more months before I get time to work on it again. I won't ask to join or beg to keep me on again, but I did make a promise to them that I'd contribute to the project once more, which I have failed to even do yet. But I'll let them decide what would be best.
My dad broke his femur bone while at work and now he can't work. Well the smart guy he is put off paying the insurance company for a couple of months because he felt he wasn't going to need and could easily pay them later. >__> Talk about ignorance. Anyways, my dad can't work and this has put me in one of the most stressful situations I have ever come to deal with. I'm currently working one job and it went from part-time to pretty much any shift I can pick up. I work as a server at a restaraunt. Anyways, I find myself working right after school around 3 and work from anywhere between 12 and 2 in the morning. Working at a 24/7 Perkins has its ups and downs. On the days I only work a small shift or I don't work, I usually find myself trying to do my homework or sleeping.
Anyways, the reason for this is, as I mentioned, my dad can't work and he doesn't have very much money in the bank right now. I'm helping out with bills and groceries until he heals up. Which the doctor said could take anywhere from 8 to 12 weeks. And even then, he might not be able to work as well has he did before, which may or may not cause issues in the future, it's his own business he's running but he still has deadlines for his clients.
As you can imagine, this is a pretty stressful situation for me, but honestly, I don't mind it and I'm very proud of myself, considering I'm only 17 and have already shown I can take full responsibility for a job, school, and family. Anyways, hopefully this explains a bit about my lack of activity towards the forums, or anything for that matter. I actually haven't been able to have a decent conversation in the Skype group with anyone. But to Blizz and Ryex, I hope you can forgive me again and as far as ARC goes, just shoot me a PM and lemme know what you guys decide, I hate leaving you again but I feel my family is a bit more important right now and I hope you guys understand.
Regardless, good luck Chaos Project! Hope you continue to thrive without me, I may or may lurk every once in awhile but I haven't had the time or want to hop on the computer, so see ya around. :3
