Hey guys! I apologize for the millionth time about the lack of posts and dedication I said I would give this story but I do have news as to the reasons why!

1: I'm engaged! This is just the biggest news I have to share since I'm just way happier with my current boyfriend (now fiancé) and I don't see us having any kind of issues that I had with my ex and he's definitely worth everything! But yeah, there's no date or anything since it's long term and we don't actually plan on setting one until we both graduate. The more I think about it, we should set one once we actually manage to get a house… Just a thought lol.

2: I'm moving in with said fiancé in about a week. So it's been crazy budgeting, packing, schedule planning with both work and school but so far, we're actually ahead of schedule lol. So as long as everything stays on the up and up with that, it should turn out fine.

3: I HATE my job. Not the coworkers though I could have a better relationship with one of my managers… It's the retail job itself that I hate. I know I'm gonna have to deal with it since I'm going to school for being a Veterinary Technician but I can't stay in retail much longer otherwise I'm gonna end up getting myself fired! The customers, the customer service, the having to deal with the lack of common sense that comes with the job from said customers, plus my social anxiety that just seems to skyrocket every time I'm at work during the holidays… Yeah

4: And last but not least … video games and manga. I will not lie, once I play Sims 3, it's hard for me to even remember to eat let alone finish a chapter of a long forgotten story. But yeah, it's not an excuse but it is a fact so if there's a long pause of chapter updates in the future (which there will be), it's because of one or more of these reasons that I just gave you guys.

Again, sorry about the long pause in updating (over a year's worth) but I have not forgotten about you guys or this story! Life just keeps dragging me away from it, that's all…
