It moved!

*STOMP* *STOMP*

Today there was a spider on my windowsill, I had to huff and puff like the great big wolf to blow it out the window. And when it finally did, it fell screaming all the way down to my bike.

And I mean, look at the loot in that picture, hey hey hey! It is quite obvious that Bominski is mining. Something she loathed.

right.

Bominski

Minsc and his hamster Boo, the ones behind the name Bominski.
Some of you may not know her.

World of Warcraft chatlogs

bwahahahaha.......

aah, nooo, not the tikbalang!

In World of Warcraft, a good friend gave me an infallible Tikbalang Ward.
"With this trusty warding talisman,
no tikbalang will ever find you and steal you away to the treetops.
It really works!"

Now, after laughing for yards and kilometres at this, I discovered that a "Tikbalang" actually just wasn't a load of bollocks!
OH MY!

No, no sir! In fact, a Tikbalang is an ancient mythical creature that leads you astray from your path according to my source Wikipedia.



So it wasn't taken out of thin air at all, what a pity :(

Gone with the dim

I had the unique pleasure of enjoying the last few hours of this weekend watching "A Room with a View", which was, I must say - incredibly enjoyable.

The last hour, however, I have spent hidden under a set of pillows catching glimpses of "War of the Worlds" - which I found, on the contrary to the previous film; to be extremely exhausting. I will not, as long as I live, see that film again, it was horrid and frightening, and it made me jump on several occassions. The music and acting (though not always convincing) was sufficient enough to scare me well out of my good skin.

In other news, the expansion package to the MMORPG "World of Warcraft" - called "The Burning Crusade" - is released according to my sources: on January 16th.

After getting a positive response to my return on Thursday, you might consider me gone with the dim as I return to the World of Warcraft for an unknown period of time. To make sure playing does not go out of hand, I warmly encourage people that acknowledge my existence of giving me a proper slap in the face if I start to talk about the game.

I have had a break from the game for over 5 months, and will accordingly continue to live as normal and steady as possible.

HEHE

I think you need a new t-shirt.
I think you need this one.

Love Online, Nothing to LOL about? - Redone

I love reading about people exploring things they don't know much about.
Like people seeing snow for the first time, or eating something they used to have yet to taste.

Today people can experience things new to them without even leaving their house, and even more splendidly: They can write articles about it. (Article from The Star).


Recommended! You should read it, it is quite cute, especially the part about claiming a warrior to have found his voidwalker. It is funny, whether you have played World of Warcraft, or not.


Manah manah - doo doo do-do-do.

Concerns of a geek-chick

So, obviously, I'm a geek-chick. And I'll tell you about all the worries I'm having at the moment because of that.

I started playing WoW (World of Warcraft) about six months ago, originally I started playing because it's awesome, and I had a lot of fun with it. Recently I'm playing only for the social part of it, which seems slightly obscure, playing a computergame for the social aspect, errr.. Well, atleast it's the truth.

So, I'm a girl, enjoying myself in a world of geeks, most of them being boys, or men. I wont lie and say being a girl hasn't made my online life very easy, cos it has. Sometimes it's nice to feel liked and appreciated, but after the hundredandthirtyseventeenth-time of: "ZOMG! YOU'RE GIRL IRL?!?11 MSN!!" it get's a bit, annoying.

So anyway, it must have been June this year, I was going away, to Australia for a month. I really didn't want to go, because it was winter there, and I wanted summer, badly. So I sat down for some last minute playing, and I ran into someone, another player. I was about level 30 (highest lvl in WoW is 60) and I was just hanging around. This person I met was lvl 60, and very fascinating. He told me he was recently divorced, he was finnish, and he'd been drunk for three days straight, he thought he had been in a fight, cos he had a black eye. I was honestly startled, but we talked, and I enjoyed it.

When I came back, we catched up, he couldn't remember much, but he remembered me, so it was okay. We continued chatting while playing, I'd get myself in trouble and he'd come save me, and I would listen to his worries and troubles. More than once he told me he wanted to kill himself, and more than once I went to bed crying cos I felt with him.

He drank too much, he drank way too much, he'd dropped out of his studies, and he was currently living of the government, spending all his money on alcohol, and skipping meals. He'd lost about 20 kgs after divorcing.

I think I'm going to skip the obvious part of us coming very close. Cos we did, and we still are. So, this finnish depressed and sad person was also wonderful, on his sober days, more or less, since he often got suicidal and sad when he drank too much. So, I started caring about him, and he about me. We sent mails to eachother, and we sould sit on msn til four in the morning. Most of the time I felt helpless, I didn't know how to react, or how to reply if he threatened of killing himself, which he did sometimes. It didn't take long before I got to know that he's six years older than myself.

We started talking then, our first conversation being a bit embarrasing, we talked using Skype, and hearing his voice, was something new to me. Oh, but I've forgotten something, someone, I met, this wonderful person I also met through this game, he's english, and he's about ten years older than me, most generous and caring person I know about, and hilarious, he's so funny.
So, what this led to, was that I really cared about this finnish person, I mean, I really like him and so I wanted to keep a distance from the english person I know, I do, honestly I'd fall for him, easily.

So the thing is, the finnish guy is coming over now for christmas, for ten days, my mum said it's okay, she know who he is and agreed with me. My stepdad doesn't know, and we don't know how to tell him, which is really stressing me. The finnish guy is by the way going back to his studies, stopped drinking and is eating and hanging with friends again.

So, I'm left with a feeling of being very happy with myself pulling this man I really care about up from the mud and back on track. But I don't know how to tell my stepdad he's coming over. And I felt like I pushed away the other person, and I think he thinks I'm some sort of asshole, using him for fun and entertainment then not replying to his e-mails, when I really tried to keep a distance because I liked him o_O.

I feel like an Ice queen.
