And strangely enough, this is also the first time I have actually been to Gamespot in seven months. I'm terribly sorry for my absence. I must say, life has kept me incredibly busy during my senior year in high school. There is much I could report for everyone to catch up on, but it would take awhile. :P With that, I hope everyone on here is doing rather well. But in case you were wondering about my absence, here is a brief run down of why exactly.

Time management has been difficult. Taking six Advanced Placement courses in my senior year in high school, I don't really have time for much else other than working these days. The policy for A.P. courses requires two hours of homework for every hour spent in class. Thus, one can see why I've been kept so busy. Not to mention, working 25 Hours per week at my job at Beans & Brews (which I love very much, as a coffee barista); on top of 35 hours in school, and a minimum of 15-20 hours of homework has easily led me to having an 75 Hour work week ... It's incredibly busy, but senior year is almost coming to an end.

However, I'm not sure how much of it will continue since I'll be enrolled full time at the University of Utah. We'll have to see what happens.

But do you want to know what the sad part is?
I haven't touched or played a single video game since August. :(

That's that, my passion for gaming has been put on hold throughout this school year. I hope it can resume sometime soon, but we'll have to see. I've actually purchased about four games over the course of the seven months of my absence, but it's still unfortunate to be in these circumstances that lack much of a social life and time for fun). But don't worry, I'm working on being back on Gamespot again, getting into gaming again, and pursuing more of my hobbies that I enjoy. I really am working on it! I hope everyone is doing well. :)
