((Hey Gang,

Okay, for those of you wondering where I've been and what I've been up too, it's a three parter.

Part 1) two jobs. I have a part-time position with the government that, as of recently, has been taking a lot more of my time than usual.

Part 2) WoW achievement hunting. Not really sure why, but I've the achievement fever. I've been burning through getting a lot of achievements lately... though the White Chocobo still eludes me. Stupid White Chocobo.

Part 3) Going back to school. It's been over a baker's dozen years since I graduated from college... and I've finally decided to start working on my Masters again. And, I'd forgotten how annoying stuff like dealing with Financial Aid and whatnot is. So... hopefully now that I've settled that down, the class will go well.

So... anyway, for those two of you wondering, there you go. An update from me.))

Since when were Chocobos in WoW? I thought that was Final Fantasie's pet?

They are White is a new one to me when I left the game there was Yellow,Blue,Green,Black,&Red expensive to raise though in gil haveing your cooking skill maxed helps a lot for expenses. I left the Game when they terminated Fairy Server and shoved us into Seraph server 2 weeks of that server was enough for me ppl were total jerks and language police ugh! anyway up until then it was a wonderful game to play.

Don't work yourself too hard

Whew, thats a work load. And yet there are enough hours in a day to accomplish all of that?

Good luck finishing your masters.

Good luck with all that.

((Hey all,

Okay, since WoW is down due to stupid weekly maintenance, I have "free time" that I can gloriously waste elsewhere. Instead of what I should be doing, which is listening to the class lecture.

Anyway, done with week 3 of class, and I can say one thing. I really, Really, REALLY, hate flippin Financial Aid. OH, did I mention how much I hate financial aid?

Silvador:

WoW has a White Hawkstrider that has the moniker "White Chocobo"... so WoW doesn't have Chocobo's really... just... weird-cool-looking ostriches. Anyway, I finally got one! I punched Prince Kael'Thas in the face so many times, he finally gave me one Smile

And I have a Nightmare too! It's freaking awesome. So, now I have Cremebrulee and Kadath... Past the 1/2 way point to getting the 50-mount achievement... and I just realized how lame I am.

So... there is my lame update.))

I want my Swift Zulian Tiger...

Stupid tower. If the piece of crap mother board hadn't gone and shit itself, I might already have it.

Royal Member of BonBon Joined: 29 May 2009 Posts: 6010

lol, I have'nt played WoW since I started playing with Reach.

Royal Member of BonBon Joined: 05 Jan 2009 Posts: 4287

I still find WoW a waste of life. >_> (less you are into tourneys)

Stick to league of legends here.

Royal Member of BonBon Joined: 29 May 2009 Posts: 6010

Its fine every once in awhile, but overall it requires of me alot of time and effort.

Royal Member of BonBon Joined: 28 Oct 2009 Posts: 4247

Hey Caroline when Catyclysm comes out will you be making a worgon since there still humans but pretty much are druids since they turn into There best mode.. Also whats your thoughts on the new Tech specialization. as well as the major changes they did to the game play especially to the Mages and warlocks ? ?

((Silvador,

No swearing in my posts... Evil or Very Mad

There are over 400k words in the English language. I'm sure one or two of them fits your mood, while not being vulgar.

Adept,

Well... probably not. Being human, I am kinda partial to us. And I really don't like how the worgen look. If I'm going to be playing a character for hours/days on end, I better like how the look. If anything I'd add a goblin to my collection. I always did like those little guys. And they blow stuff up! How can you not like that!

As for the changes... while they'll take some getting used too, I think they're for the best. I'm not hard-core or anything, or a mod downloader or anything, and, right now, the changes have given me a positive feel. Mind you, I play a Holy Paladin... since level 1... since pre-Burning Crusade. I've always done Holy. So... I like the changes. Especially since now my Exorcise I can spam, and it has a 50% chance to be a DOT too. Smile

And who doesn't like "Cone-of-Feel-Good" Smile

Anyway, I haven't really worked on my warlock-gnome with the new changes... so I don't have much data on that. And I don't have a mage, so... no data there either.))

I just wish they'd just given the Worgen a travel-speed animation instead of making them ride their food like Timon does Puumba. That's just stupid.

Well I tried and I changed the password of my battle.net account, but if I try to log in it says to enter a authenticator code. Is there a way to get that off?

Royal Member of BonBon Joined: 28 Oct 2009 Posts: 4247

Royal Member of BonBon Joined: 05 Jan 2009 Posts: 4287

There a way to just delete my account or I have to call blizzard?

((Woot! Almost done with my first class. My final project should be done on Friday, and then I start my next class... Microeconomics... ugh...))

Royal Member of BonBon Joined: 31 Dec 2007 Posts: 3215

Good luck with Microeconomics... I personally couldn't stand regular econ, bleck.

((Adept,

I have a mage... she's a Blood Elf. I've tried some of the other races/classes... just none of them seriously. I'm not much of an alt person. I think the closes I have to my main character is still a good 10 levels behind... and about a zillion levels behind in gear and achievements.

On the plus side, I've moved up to the top-10 for our guild's achievement hunters. Yay for being lame, and having a minimal social life ^_^ ))

Royal Member of BonBon Joined: 22 Dec 2008 Posts: 2173

((YAY! I received an "A" for my economics class Smile

or at least a 90%. Now I have a two week break before my next class starts. Two down... like... seven to go.))
