Welcome to Gaia! :: View User's Journal | Gaia Journals

AMGAD. MY PHONE HAS BEEN DEAD FOR LIKE, AGES. And every time you call me I'm doing something...I hope you don't think I'm ignoring you. T-T

Damn. It's been forever since I've been on here. Longer since I've posted in my journal. I've been playing this game called Perfect World (MY-EN server, not the INT server), but as of now it's down. So I decided to check up on Gaia. What sort of person would I be if I missed dressing up for Halloween?

GAH. I'm almost out of money. What did I spend it on? Hrm.... I can't remember. Well, at least I have Halloween and Christmas taken care of. I wonder what I'll do for Thanksgiving. I REALLY want one of those autumn scarf thingers...how much are those again? Bah.

So like, I've been playing this game called perfect world. It's really neat except for the "engrish" since I'm on a Malaysian English server. It's a MMORPG with a really extensive character creation page, which of course drew me in like a moth to a lamp. The game itself is pretty good...leveling isn't IMPOSSIBLE though it lacks a little in the end-game content category. I don't know why I like it so much...perhaps because of the community. I'm in an awesome guild called Entourage (fitting for a guild name, isn't it?). I WAS just a member, then started getting promoted fast. I was only supposed to be TEMPORARY Vice Guild Master, but then I got Guild Master dumped on me too, so now I lead it against my wishes. Catica (the original Guild Master of Entourage) gave me access to her account and the millions of gold she had in it so that I could lead it better. She sort of abandoned us for Perfect World International though... the guild had died before she gave me leader to keep it going. So I spent long, hard hours trying to revive the guild (which I ended up doing), but the moment she comes back to Perfect World MY-EN, I'm probably going to quit.

Perfect World International just came out. It's the USA version of Perfect World as opposed to the Malaysian English server that I play. The translation is supposed to be completely re-written for the PWI version, but I don't want to start alllll over. I heard a lot of things sucking about that game, too. For instance, prices on that version are CRAZY. Where on PW-MY-EN, the price of cubigold (currency you pay real money for to buy stuff from the Item Mall) is like 4 cubigold to 1$, on PW-INT, the price is 1 "cubigold" to 1$. How crazy is that? I would much rather pay 25 cents for 1 cubigold than a dollar for 1 cubigold. Not only that, but EVERYTHING in PW-INT is apparently renamed. That would be soooo confusing @.@. Of course, there ARE advantages to PW-INT: for instance, my computer would be talking to a server in the USA, as opposed to talking to a server in Asia, so I'd get TONS less lag. But I don't really have lag issues anyway, so...I don't really care. I don't want to start all the way back to level 1, and most of my friends are staying on the MY-EN version anyway.

So yeah. That's where I've been. Here is the link to the Malaysian-English version of Perfect World in case you're interested (though I'm pretty sure it's down now), and here is the link to the International version (which is based in the USA) in case you wanna try that one instead.

Now about like...real life I guess. I GRADUATED (woo hoo!) and met some of my friends from The Projekts at Anime Weekend Atlanta (which is this huuuuge convention every year hosted in a high-class hotel in Atlanta). That seems like a good place to start.

My friends and I bought a table to sell our artwork in AWA. It was awesome. Although we were by these two amazing artists, so I didn't sell much. My partner did though, because all she was selling were chibis and mine were other kinds of things that fought (and lost) with the artists next to me. I met my favorite DA artist ever, and bought stuff from her. I also bought a ******** of pocky and Hello Pandas (but who DOESN'T at a convention?), a shirt, and tons of other commissions and prints.

Since graduating, my life has been relatively uneventful. Just a lot of housework, playing on my tablet-pc. My dog Kodi died, but we got a new one, Scooter. Scooter turned out to be Kodi's brother, which we didn't know until after we got him. Turns out Scooter was from the same breeder, but we found him at a shelter instead of buying him directly from a breeder. That's probably the most significant thing, lol.

So...now you're updated, and I've sufficiently ranted. SORRY AGAIN KATIE, OMG. I'll call you later. @.@
