11:48 PM ET  04.29 | Hello everyone, after a much longer hiatus than I expected that was full of acting in plays, making short films, and busting my hump to pass for my senior year, I am glad to be back. I only realized how long I have been away when I noticed I had made two blogs in the past two months or so, the last one being about the Rockets' 22 game winning streak. Sigh, those were the days... Before we get ahead of ourselves I want to say hello to all the new members. I was a pretty active member last summer, and am lucky enough to blog for SI occasionally. (largely due to being on here, along with the kindness of SI editors and writers.) I can only imagine a lot has changed, whether it be who is on top of the throwdown leaderboard or who is the most active group on FanNation. It is hard to believe it was a year ago that I started checking out the site. Now it kind of feels foreign to me...which leads me to my next thought. I want to do what I can to be a bigger part of the community again. Last summer was a rollercoaster on here. (Those who were here can remember it. It ultimately led me to not do throwdowns anymore, something I want to start doing again.) But it was a fun ride for the most part. So why not do it again? I will start blogging more actively starting tomorrow and then I want to start TDing again. It's good to be back. Let's have some fun.
