Happy Birthday, NSFW!!!
7 years ago
Happy Birthday, NSFW. Merry Birthday, NSFW. The BEST birthday, NSFW.
5 years old, now, boy, this group, and the persons who manned it have come a long way, truly.....
So much memories and so much things on that timeframe. So, here's hopping we take NSFW to 10 years of activity, guys!
Cheers and Kudos!
Now, normally, this would be me signing up for a tournament, a big tournament in commemoration for the event, but, my real life takes my priorities elsewhere. And to further explain myself (long read, please bare with me)....
As some of you know, my training and degrees are on Medical Depict Images (paramedic) field, a field that I do not practice now, working labourer, in a job that has become tougher, more demanding and more underpaying by the day, and sometimes, you got to give something.
Said something came to me as an offer from a person of my acquaintance; a position of training on the MRI department, with the prospect of me becoming a full-hired personnel when the training period (usually 1-2 months) ends.
However, those training hours directly conflate with my work hours. So, I figured out that this is one chance I got to finally get out of this frustrating work and getting back to do what I wasted time, money and youth of my life doing and what I wanted to do.
Henceforth I am quitting my work come end of May and going full in to the newest environment.
Am I certain that I will get employed? None in the slightest. Am I certain that if I close this door there won't be other doors opening in the near future? I am certain of it.
So, you might wonder where you and NSFW fall into all of this and why I needed to update you about it.
Well, truth be told, MRI is a....weak subject of me and the one I got the fewest work hours, and one I have not operated for the past...6 years.
So, my knowledge about it is not only rusty, it is not up to date and my familiarity with the apparatus is also questionable.
And this is where it concerns this group and you, guys.
I will (and have ordered, expecting them by the end of the next week) books with info and the illustrations of the actinologic patient positions on the apparatus, in the morning, I will go to train on MT and in the afternoon, I will be studying to get back into shape of my prior education the soonest possible.
Which means that my time to allocate to my internet life, social life and as extension, this group and the wonderful persons surrounding it, will be not only scarce; it will be almost non-existent.
At least for a big period of this year.
So, what does that mean for this group and the persons surrounding it?
Well, first things first, all activities, the few ones that still existed in the FA page BESIDES the Character Spotlight feature, are going to be paused.
But the Character Spotlight both for 2018 (since art already has happened for it) and 2019 will happen. Of that be certain, no matter how scarce my time will be, I am sure I can devote some of it every first of the month to upload a picture.
It also means that, NSFW' Discord server is going to serve as the only place of NSFW that is going to be active...at whatever extend. So those of you that are still members of NSFW but not still members of the Discord of it, please note me so I can put you in the place.
It is not the way I would wish to do things, far from it, leaving this place and the wonderful people and friends I made along the way hanging, however, I am at a crossroad here and REAL LIFE ALWAYS WINS, in the end.
I have to make a decision, I made this decision and I have to take that step, for myself and my future, to see where this leads me.
So, yes, all those changes are going to be active at the end of May, God willing, of course!
So, to all, thank you for your presence, for your activity and for making NSFW a better place, thank you for baring with me and IF you wish to tell me of something, anything before my prolonged absebse, you got till the end of May for it!
This is NOT, definitelly NOT a goodbye journal, God willing, I will come back and will continue being active in this community when I have put my affairs in order, but right now, real life comes first!
So, thanks for bearing with me, I hope to get a touch with all of you before my prolong absense and once more...
