Agmuos Core.....On Hiatus???
I suppose some of you know about Agmuos Core and that I'm one of the authors of the said series, no? I hate you (=3=) ... Just kidding! xD
For those who doesn't have a single idea what Agmuos Core is all about please check it out here.
Now, for those who has been reading some of the Agmuos Core stories, you may have noticed that the publishing of the series suddenly stopped around October of last year. Well, as some of you may have speculated, yes.. it's on hiatus due to a number of reasons; and no it isn't cancelled (thankfully). And to answer your questions to why the sudden halt of this project, I will be giving you some of the factors regarding this matter.
#1 Most of its writers are full-time college students
As mentioned on the AC's page, it is a project being done by a college organization. As much as we wanted to encourage them to write continuously, we respect the fact that they are in school to prioritize their studies before doing any extra-curricular activities. We even talk to them when their grades drop.
#2 The alumni members are full-time employees
Among the writers of AC are three alumni, and two of them (I'm not included for I am unemployed) are full-time employees now. And since now that we're out of the campus doors, all we can do is to guide our juniors on what to do with the project. We also have our own parts in the story but... well.... reality strikes. I'm working on it.... I'm trying.... just you wait you...
#3 Unsatisfied with their work
Since we are a bunch of amateur writers, doubting our work happens pretty often. We suddenly want to change something that goes way back resulting to a time consuming editing process.
#4 Writer's block
Every writer goes through this once in a while, and we are not excused from it. There are times we don't even know what's gonna happen next because we can't think of anything to add on our story.
#5 Underdeveloped character/story
We are indeed amateurs and total newbies when it comes to writing novels, but that doesn't mean we'll let you read clumsy works. We want to try our best to make our readers remember what they read from us. Now, we're not trying to be authors of the "next Harry Potter " but we want our work to be worth remembering. Especially that each story reflects what happens to us and our organization in real life. So when we see that a character or a story is lacking, we often edit it, thus, taking more time.
So there it is, five reasons in which I think why AC went on hiatus. We will try our best to get back as soon as we can, we will have a meeting about it... probably during vacation. Thank you very much for those who read the series and are actually looking forward to the next updates. We are very sorry for making you wait for so long, and thank you for understanding.

5 Things Why Having a Childhood Friend Rocks! (A reply to the Fabulous Ostrich)
So.. for my first blog entry after my comeback, I present my version of The Fabulous Ostrich's blog post "5 Things Why Having a Childhood Friend Rocks!" And as I am feeling lazy to edit photos at this hour, I will be using some of her images! (excuse me for doing so my dear friend haha!)
Guess what..I am posting this exactly one month after she wrote this entry so happy one month to her post (^-^)/*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*
She created the blog entry some weeks before graduation. Who would have thought the person I would be with during my college graduation is the same person I was with during my grade school. Now that we are officially fresh graduates, we still plan to stay in touch and do things together. Yes, with a 14 year friendship it is quite difficult to separate us. We are always together that all we need is a ring and one roof to live in :3
Let us begin! *insert sparkles here*
For some of those who have childhood friends like us, I bet you might agree with some of these:
1. Fights are almost impossible...
For being together that long, wouldn't it be a waste to ruin something so precious? Second, what is there to fight about anyway? We know almost everything about one another already that we can't even find something to argue about. And third, we are utterly immune to each other, one says something offensive, the other says something even more offensive, and we just laugh it off like we did not just try to insult one another.
2. Fangirling 101
We both flail over guys.. of course, we a girls after all. The only difference is, hers is 2D while mine is some idol who doesn't even know I exist. And we never had a problem with boys (as I have said earlier, we never fight), why? because our types are completely different. Also, there is this one specific senpai (senior) whom we both fangirl over with.... NOTICE US SENPAI!
4. Time? What time?
NO... an entire day will never be enough for us to chat, not even an entire month. We spent almost everyday of our lives talking, eating together, shopping together, and go home together. When we get home you may think we are already resting but nope.. nuh uh.. we are still online on our facebook accounts continuing our topic on the ride home.
5. FREE FOOD!
If either one of us has extra cash in her wallet, and the other one is broke then worry not. Because we pay for each other's meal. Because our class ends at 6pm we often eat dinner in the nearby cafeteria or fastfood chain (ahem Mcdonald's ahem). If we're both broke then screw it! TO THE MASTER SIOMAI!

3. Having one common enemy
It is automatic, if one of us gets an enemy, rest assured the other will come for support. If we were in the Hunger Games we'll definitely become partners targeting that one annoying tribute who keeps on chasing after us.
4. Time? What time?
NO... an entire day will never be enough for us to chat, not even an entire month. We spent almost everyday of our lives talking, eating together, shopping together, and go home together.

Of course, the best thing with having a childhood friend is having someone you can share your memories with. We may have graduated from college already and like it or not, we may part ways but all those time we shared will be forever engraved in time. AYAN MAY FOREVER HA! XD
For the nth time congratulations to us! ^-^
