CVIII: After Dawn

Cus some things just don't change
It's better when they stay the same
Although the whole world knows your name
So on the biggest days they came to see you spit your game
It shouldn't be difficult to explain
Just why you came back again
You hate the fame
Love the game
Cold as ice you remain
F*ck em' all
Tell 'em all eat sh*t
Here we go again



"A beginning is the time for taking the most delicate care that the balances are correct."



Two hundred and eighty five days. In the time since I left the game I've enjoyed every moment of it. I've lived life, worked and played hard, and generally moved on from ever thinking about eRepublik ever again.

But I couldn't help myself. I did think about it.

In truth, I felt like I had unfinished business. Things kept bugging me, kept cropping up in my daily thoughts. Despite how inconsequential they were, I felt like I had some things still left to accomplish and do in the game. I needed a way to accomplish that without getting into the situation I had prior.

So I lurked. On IRC, on the forums, via guest views, and links. I waited for the right timing to return. And thus I return.



I come back with three goals in mind, three things I did not accomplish and wish to rectify. The list is simple.

1. Get a Media Mogul Medal.
2. Get Battle Hero Medal.
3. Enjoy the game.

I've heard and witnessed the shift in the media module. It sucks. I think I can do it. As for the Battle Hero, that too will come with time. But the biggest thing I want to accomplish for myself is to find a way to really enjoy this game and not leave it feeling like I've wasted my time.

I made good friends. I have good memories. I'm looking to make more.

So to those of you who don't know me: it's good to meet you.
To those of you who do: the sleeper has awakened.



PS - I'm taking her back Blank. Thanks for keeping her safe. 😛
PSS - To anyone in the eUS congress willing to grant my citizenship request, I would be most appreciative.

Stay frosty.
