Adios! Au revoir! Sayonara! Goodbye.

So long Blogiverse! This has been enjoyable- and it's fulfilled it's purpose too, I am today a better writer than I was a few months ago (All the time I'm writing there's this little voice in my head that gives constant sarky commentary. It's like I was born with an in-built Evil Mother-in-Law. Just now, when I typed in that last sentence, she sniffed, tossed her perfectly coiffed hair and said something about how I could hardly be worse.) and I hope I wasn't the only one having fun (EMiL: Yes you were.)

For what could possibly be the last time: Hey y'all how's it going? I was going to make this like a traditional "Dear John" letter, but you deserve a better explanation than that.
It's not working anymore! It's not you, it's me! I deserve a better audience! The feelings just aren't there now!
Just kidding.
It turns out I'm like one of those blonde cocktail waitresses who can't think while chewing gum. I thought I could handle doing well in ISC Sci and being a fairly extra-curricularly person simultaneously, but when I try to do two difficult and rewarding things at the same time I tend to screw up both, so... yeah.
It's awkward now, isn't it? Don't worry, we can still be friends! This is not one of those dramatic "I never want to see Blogger again!" kind of things. I will post, perhaps, some time in the future when I'm having one of those restless creative moods and, when I do, it will be Good Times again. To everyone who reads this blog, whether you stumbled on it by accident five minutes ago, or whether you supported it right from the beginning (LOL, I say that like my blog happened at the same time as Creation or something, it's been five months you guys), thank you so much. Less than three!

I wish there was an etiquette book with rules on what you're supposed to say on occasions like this.  Oh, I know! Let's make a list! That should make this whole process suitably cyclic.
How To Dump a Blog Like A Koshy:
Step 1: First, lure your readers in with promises of eternal love and faithfulness. That way they'll never see your betrayal coming.
Step 2: Get gradually more boring towards the end so that when the final blow hits, they're kind of glad it's happened in the first place.
Step 3: Write them an incredibly deficient good-bye post, perhaps using pathetic excuses such as "My dog ate my post" even though you don't have a dog.
Step 4: Make a feeble comeback sometime in the future which will eventually peter out, leaving your blog as dead as Myspace after Facebook killed it.
Step 5: Always feel glad that you did keep up a blog, even if only for a very short time span, and look back with no regrets over hours of on-line bitching to a silent, but sympathetic, virtual audience.

"LOOK A FOLLOW BUTTON!!!" doesn't seem appropriate anymore, so I'm just going to say....
...........
*Dramatic pause where you wait breathlessly for awesome ending line*
KTHXBAI!

Take care you guys. Remember, there are no problems chocolate cannot solve, and when all else fails, read P. G. Wodehouse. Keep on keepin' on! Mwaah xoxo
