Intro An Unexpected Journey

Well I'd like to start it off with, hey everyone! Feels great to be back!
For all you who are wondering, I'll just keep the story short. When the school year started I just couldn't balance my entertainment with my academics, so I decided to prioritize what was important and what could be put on hold until my school year was finished. So I decided to try and drop my, should I say, addiction with the server. I had too many things to balance out, having my soccer team, piano, Social life etc. and I moved on to other things. I was planning to jump back on during Christmas break but then the problem with my family moving to a new house, and visiting my relatives back in China, blah blah blah, if you want to know about my vacation we can talk later.
Anyway, when I came back I started to do some serious studying for the midterms so again, putting the unnecessary burdens out of the way, I went back to studies and my friends. Lately though, things have calmed down. Midterms have came and gone, major projects have all been finished, Feb break is rolling our way, and I'm finally back home for the winter break. So I thought "what better time to check up on everyone".
So here I am, and man can I say, this server has grown since I was gone. Everything is so new and foreign, I almost feel like I'm completely new here again. Seeing all the old faces is like a trip down memory lane. Its great to see you all still playing. Its especially disappointing to see all those great figures who left as well.
So this was just me saying that its nice to see you all again. Don't expect me to apply for mod or be super-active because its just Feb. break I still have things to do outside Minecraft, and when school starts up again I might as well disappear off the charts again.

So the general message: Hey everyone, great to be back, but I can't promise anything. I'll be on teamspeak once in a while if anyone wants to talk. I'll be here all week folks.
