Happy and Sad, all at the same time

Postby Lirathal » Thu Aug 15, 2002 7:41 pm

I have a great loathing for what I am about to type, but it is a need that must be
fulfilled.

This morning a courier came to my door and dropped of a letter for me. It was from the school. A day previous I was there for an interview. Now I have to stress (for emotional effect :P) that this isn't a normal disploma or degree program, it is 4 years, condensed in to 1 year and is very elite. The interview went well, and now my fate sat in my hands, signed, sealed, and delivered. I got my letter opener and opened it. I started to read,

"Dear Nathan:

Congratulations! We are pleased to inform you of your acceptance ..."

I almost hit my head on the ceiling when I jumped around. I was and am still so excited, I ran upstairs to my computer and told my friends and family of the good news, I logged on to the mud and told my friends there too!

And then it happened. The realisation that Iwas going to lose all my free time. All my time with my friends, all the time with my family. 830 to 430 everyday in school, and then homework at night.


So to get to the point, the reason I am writing this is to announce my semi retirement. I don't want to leave, this place has meant so much to me for too long. I have played here for 10 years and through out the years I have met the most wonderful people. People that would support me no matter what. People that didn't know me but for a few letters on a screen. In this place people can truley be who they want to be, they act as the normally would with out fear or judgment based on looks, attitude, or the shoes that you wear, and for that we are the luckiest people in the world. I don't want to make my leave permanent, I do want to come back, but I must concentrate and must have respect for the position that I am in. I'll miss you all and I'll do my best to keep in touch.


I'd like to list off the people that have made this mud so special to me, but I can't, I don't have a list of the whole userbase. You all mean the world to me. Keep in touch.

Regards,
Nathan

Congrats Lammy!!! I'm tickled to hear about your good news, and I'm sure that you're fully deserving of the torture you're going to be putting yourself through. Sally forth and conquer!
