...because they're hard to get back into.

I say this because, well, not only has my passion for writing about video games died off because I took a break from it for schooling (and also because my personal funds have run dry for the majority of the year), but my passion for posting the forums has sort of died off because of the downtime Gamespot needed for the redesign--I've posted in these forums more today and yesterday than I have since mid-September!

I've mainly been spending my free time going to the gym to work out, playing my favorite PC games competitively (I've been pubbing less and scrimming more in CS 1.6/Source now) and chilling with IRL friends and some of my closer "e-friends," if you'd like to call them that.  It seems as if I'm having trouble getting into old habits because, ever since I stopped doing the old things that I loved, I got plenty of new things to love.  Hopefully, I can get back on track and post more at my favorite forums, as well as write about video games more.  If only school weren't so long! >_<
