Introduction (aka about this journal)
Hello and welcome. This is, fairly obviously, my online journal / blog / whathaveyou. Come, put up your metaphorical webtravelling shoes; won't you have a read for a while?

I also, like 11 million other people, play World of Warcraft. My main characters are:

  • Shukeralle, unguilded level 80 night elf druid (server: Aggramar)
  • Donda, level 72 tauren druid, also on Aggramar. Is in the "Hordes of Hell" giuld.
  • ...and an army of alts

Nov. 21st, 2005 @ 12:43 pm My life is a never-ending miasma of complete and utter boredom. Well, not really.

I haven't really written much here for a while because my life has been rather boring lately. No, really. About the most exciting thing I've done recently has been to get through season 4 of Deep Space 9. Only 3 more seasons to go...

I couldn't help but watch "Paradise Lost" - the episode where we find out that, OMG!, changelings have infiltrated Earth and because of that, Starfleet attempts to take over - and think of current events.

-

Actually, I tell a lie, I can think of another item: I have played Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow almost to death. I have completed it normally. I have run through it a second time, in order to get a 100% soul collection rate and exploration rate. I've gone through it on Julius mode. I've defeated Boss Rush mode in less than 5 minutes. I've finally got through Boss Rush mode in Julius mode. (Though I used Yoko for most of the fights, so it was more like Yoko mode. Some of the bosses die extremely quickly when you use Yoko.)

I gave Hard mode a shot. But, to get Hard mode I was continuing a cleared game, and so I had all my uber equipment already. When you have Death's Robe, the Chaos Ring, all the Souls, and the Claimh Solais, the game is not all that hard.

I think it might finally be time to give the game a rest.
About this Entry
Oct. 25th, 2005 @ 05:09 pm Just some quick random soundbites
- One of these days I should pile up all my unwatched anime, unplayed games, and unread books, look upon the stack set before me and despair. Despair, I tell you, DESPAIR! Oh, and take a picture of it, too, and put it up here.

- Am doggedly getting through Firefly, despite lots of other distractions. V. Good series.

- Saw that Star Trek DVDs were on clearance sale pretty much everywhere. Worried that I might miss my chance, I picked up seasons 4 - 7 of Star Trek Deep Space 9 (and might get season 3 as well), which I've been meaning to get for a few years. Now I just need a few months of spare time. (They were almost 66% off!)

- Not bothering with any other Star Trek DVDs. I am not made of money, I do not have the time, I watched most of TNG back in the day, and I'm not that interested in catching up on Voyager or the original series.

- Have discovered to my chagrin that the shoes I use for jogging are hell on my feet. Thankfully I did not have much actual use for my toenails, which seem to be in the process of falling off. Ow. Will need to use other shoes, and have made decent running shoes a priority.

- Have finally seen Disney's Mulan, after seven or so years of wondering what it was like. Enjoyed film v. much.

- Have also finally started on Last Exile. Wanting to see more.

- The DnD game that was supposed to happen on the weekend didn't. Email was sent around saying it was off, but by mistake it went only to the old group and not to me. Character I'll be using is Landerson Z. K. Miller, a melee combat / mage type character, or 'spellsword'. Hopefully the game will be back on this weekend.

- The ADSL modem at home is acting very oddly. It seems to randomly switch between full functionality and trying to line sync. Giving the PC an extended rest.
