Ok So after talking to some people, and seeing some reactions I think its safe to say NON is dead as full out group. Thus the efforts to do one last party are stopping.
may NON live on in our hearts, and maybe one day reunite us together.
I hope everyone has a wonderful life and is happy on the road they've chosen to go. I have been staying back I think for far too long, and it has caused me pain to watch as everyone else decided to move on.
Well now its my turn I guess and it still pains me to say I need to move on from NON, but really I'll always be NON I just have to continue on down a different path now because that is what has been laid out before me. I hope that I can accomplish what everyone else seems to think is a better life and even if it isn't I won't forget any of you. I may not think about you all the time lol but I won't forget you.
thank you all for giving me these days, and may you learn from your mistakes you made and even learn from the pain you caused some of us when you left. I hope that when you find your new place to be that if you have to leave that too you think about how you do it a little more than you did here with us.
Zevy will always love you all even if she burns you to a crisp!

"Live for the future. Remember the past."
Zev, one thing about communities like these is that we're always going to be connected in one way or another. Even if we move on, there are remnants of our past that stick with us as we move along. For all of us at NON, much like yourself, NON will always be a part of us that we will take with us wherever we go. I could very much say the same for Anime NebrasKon - staffing with that group has been like growing and becoming part of another family, something similar between you guys and them.
While NON as a full group has certainly waned and hit a point in its life where it is inactive, it doesn't mean it can't come back in the future, and perhaps improved from before. Right now, on my own personal front, I still have things to iron out in my life before I can really dedicate myself to groups of friends regularly for recreational purposes. I imagine some of NON is in a similar predicament, albeit not as poor off since I'm facing all-but-certain homelessness while being generally unemployable, and we just need to get our own lives sorted out before we come back together. There's also been a lot of drama within the group, some of which still needs resolving, and others which have left permanent scars on some people. These things can also affect peoples' willingness to get together with the group.
In general, though, taking a break from NON isn't that bad. In fact, if you give it some time, opportunities might present themselves to really launching it again. To note, once I have my own place, I can offer to hold parties and meetings at a new "NONpartment". Something to consider, but that probably won't be for a while yet.
Feel free to keep in touch on Facebook, or you can add me on MSN, Skype, or Steam (I'm usually on MSN and Steam right now, but I occasionally change up what I use). Take care, Zev, and we'll see you next time! ^^

Just the idea of this makes me sad. I may be on a pretty bad pattern of making an appearance and then shelling myself up from anything other than day-to-day contacts, but I have never believed for a second NON was dead. I always think there might be a chance I can move back home, even though the job I have right now is on track for a retirement career. I never moved on. Somewhere inside is that kid that I still want to be, hanging out with friends I wanted to be with more often than I was with, being the person I never got to be.
This honestly sounds a little depressing to me, but it's what I think. I'm sorry if I never really tried to keep in touch. I usually need some prodding to get me active. I've let my "I hate Facebook games" excuse of not going on there survive for too long.
With all that said, I wish everyone great luck in their separate paths of life and I hope that one day, just like a High School reunion, we can get together more regularly.
In before "it took me six months to say something".
