Subject: Hello or Goodbye...

To those of you who may or may not still be here, which I doubt any of you are, who remember me. With kindness or hate, it does not matter. To those who knew me I want to thank you for knowing me and letting me know you. You all were a big part of my life when I needed friends and enemies the most. You all helped me through a hard time in my life when I was striking out on my own for hte first. This was just before the US went into the Iraq. Just before Shock and Awe. It may have been a few months or a year before that, but it does not matter. I'm just glad I was able to meet some many people who shared an interest and gave me a place to go where I didn't have to deal with or even acknowledge the duties or responsibilities of being a US military member. This was a time when I had just joined the military and moved to Italy. I knew no one and shared interests with no one. Except for the people I met here at Fort Nightshade, and then at Fort Ruddler, Sampetra, Army of Southsawrd, The Quanshiare Mercs (From whom I met my soon to be fiance). I am most gratefull to all of you who took my under your wing and gave me a place to rest my head and showed me companionship. It is sad that none of us ever role play any more, but that happens as we grow and our views change. And to those who wish to keep the spirit that burns inside of us alive, we can not do so with the newer role players. We are just to different. All we can do is show them our spark and hope it ignites in them. So that it may live on.

My real name is Jared Volavka. I am on active duty in Italy on board the USS Emory S. Land AS-39. If anyone from the old days stops by here and reads this and remembers me, feel free to send me an e-mail and say hi. And to the 'newbies', yes that's what you are, if you read this and want to do the same. By all means please. Here are three e-mails that you may use to contact me.

I did not list any names, for the list is long and in truth I can not remember all those who touched my life. But thank you all.

Your Friend,
HT2 (SW) Volavka, Jared M

Re: And like someone fromt eh old days I forgot something. ^_^ Here are the e-mails. jvolavka@as39.navy.mil, rogue_assassine@yahoo.com, teknomaige@hotmail.com (NT) -- Wraithe Stjerna, 12:07:03 07/30/05 Sat
I remember you, of course! I remember some good times with you, too. I'm glad you're doing so well. (NT) -- Darkrose Windblaze, 20:04:45 08/02/05 Tue
- I'm glad someone does. ^_^ *hugs* How are you? (NT) -- Wraithe, 08:22:10 08/08/05 Mon
I'm fine. Been doing a little RPing, but it's tough to find places. Otherwise I've had a perfectly boring summer. (NT) -- Darkrose, 14:04:34 08/09/05 Tue
I wish I could say the same. But it's been a very hecktic summer over here in Italy. But I did get some time off to see my girlfiend back in the states. Your in college right? Got any plans for next year? (NT) -- Wraithe, 13:08:23 08/10/05 Wed
Nope, still high school. One more year. I'm trying to decide where to apply to college. (NT) -- Darkrose, 13:38:42 08/11/05 Thu
Got any ideas on what you want to study? (NT) -- Wraithe, 13:59:43 08/16/05 Tue
Yeah, I think I'm going to major in English. (NT) -- Darkrose, 22:24:13 08/16/05 Tue
haha! Then you'll be the second english major I know. ^_^ The first was also in the ROC. Why english? Gonna be a writer? (NT) -- Wraithe, 07:19:19 08/17/05 Wed
Maybe something like that. I've always liked writing and it's one of my best subjects. I definitely won't be doing anything in math or science. (NT) -- Darkrose, 23:48:58 08/17/05 Wed
Those used to be my best subjects. ^_^ Back when I was in school. But now I just work with my hands. What kind of stories do you write? (NT) -- Wraithe, 03:41:46 08/27/05 Sat
Usually whatever my teachers tell me to write. ^_^ It's usually less stories and more essays for school, though. Pursuasive writing. Which I happen to enjoy. I'm sure I won't end up being a novelist. Maybe a journalist. (NT) -- Darkrose, 22:35:01 09/02/05 Fri
Well at least you enjoy it. And that's all that really matters, right? And being a journalist can be an exciting and lucrative job. ^_~ (NT) -- Wraithe, 02:07:27 09/04/05 Sun
