Auf wiedersehen, good night,
I hate to go and leave this pretty sight.

As you may or may not know, I'm a medicine student here in Costa Rica. Of course, I do not mean to stay here. I'd rather do a residency in the United States, preferably, Internal Medicine. For this, I have to take four very hard tests known as the United States Medical License Examinations (USMLEs), popularly called the Steps. These are Step 1, Step 2 Clinical Knowledge (CK), Step 2 Clinical Skills (CS), and Step 3. All of these tests evaluate a different component of the medical studies, including the basic sciences, the knowledge of diseases and how to treat them, and the human side of medicine.
The reason why I'm telling you this is because I will be taking my Step 1 a year from now. I had originally planned to do it somewhere near December 2012, but I also have to take another test here in Costa Rica for my clinical rotations around November of the coming year. Taking into account I will be moving to Chicago to study for the Step 1 next June, it is simply not feasible going to the US, coming back to Costa Rica to take a test, going back to the US to take the Step 1, and then coming back to Costa Rica to start my clinical rotations in January 2013. So I will be taking my Step 1 next October.
That is to say, I'm already running late to start studying for this test, a test you are not allowed to repeat. I guess you guys know where I'm going to with this, that is, if you didn't get it from the thread's subject: I'm leaving HBGames.org, at least until November 2012. Hopefully, HBGames.org will still be here, waiting for me, unlike so many other RPG Maker sites that have, with time, come to their inevitable deaths.
I'm also putting Medina Stories on hold. Heck, I don't even think it can be called a hiatus if it's such a freaking long time. I'm releasing what I had so far too. If I would've had a few more months to work on this, I could have finished the core systems.
On the upside, if everything goes according to plan, and I hope it will, this same time next year I'll be one step closer to becoming a Cardiologist.
Although individually, I do not know any of you, as a group you guys are to me like a second family. And I will miss you. I'll miss helping people with Ruby scripting. I'll miss playing new RMXP games. I'll miss being both praised and harshly criticized for my project. I'll miss Wyatt's hermaphrodicity, Venetia's sexuality, Brewmeister and Bluescope's objectivity, and even Despain's idiocy (in occasions). I hope this is not the last I hear from you guys.
Sincerely,
