2/8/2017 0 Comments Mischief World of WarcraftI always thought the Make A Wish pets were a great idea this years was a little special. This was the first year that I ever had just a little extra money to get a Make A Wish pet, and she just so happened to be a kitty! The little idle animations are adorable, she dances like a kitty druid, stretches, and falls asleep. I always loved having the companions even before pet battles so having this one that is for Make A Wish and a kitty is perfect for me! I thought her name was just so fitting to follow around my Rogue. This way they can get into mischief together! I love the derpy little kitty icon! That face with the little cross eyes and everything! She looks like she is ready to play and will probably pounce on you XD. I adore that she came in a little present that I had to open, it is a really nice touch! I'm hoping to get next years Make A Wish pet and I am really glad that World of Warcraft does this for a great charity. Adorable little animals seem like the perfect reminder of doing something good, and that it is always a good time to help people :).

2/7/2017 0 Comments The Perfect MusicI'm sure it is different for everyone but you know those songs that get you so pumped that you feel like nothing can stop you, that you can conquer the day with ease. That is the good stuff, for me the perfect music is Rock, but then on some days I feel like Celtic or Folk (because Renaissance Faire), others there will be that really good pop song, but I always find myself coming back to Rock. I grew up with my parents listening to Rock and I've loved it ever since. I find that lyrically I go towards Rock songs. I'm not really about going to clubs, sleeping around, and other things that seem to be popular in pop or rap. I don't even really like those songs then it comes to Rock. I fall into things like Get Thru This by Art of Dying, On My Own by Ashes Remain, My Story by Leet Mob. The kind of lyrics that really get you pumped that make you feel like you can do anything.
I fall in love with the songs that make me feel strong, courageous, and unstoppable. Those are the things I want to see in my life and my music is no different. We listen to the songs that feel right for the time. I've listened to so many sad and depressing songs because of been there, so many angry and lost songs because I've been there too but that isn't where I am anymore and I want every choice to reflect that. And I know with a little faith I won't ever go back to those places. I find some of the most powerful music is attached to memories. I still remember one night listening to Afflicted by Age of Daze, it was when I realized both of my best friends who used to date had crushes on me. I've always been straight but had a special place in my heart for this girl and the guy was a master manipulator and this wasn't long before he broke me. We had gone out to get food for my parents and were sitting under this street lamp, tensions were high in the car and after the guy went in to get the food I remember watching the snow fall in the light of the street lamp. It glittered so brightly even in that dull yellow of the lamp, and I remember my chest feeling so tight, feeling so confused and lost. Just listening to that song brings back that memory, it is so vivid even today about 8 years later. I remember getting lost in the snow, in watching the pretty flakes fall so slowly in the light. It was barely falling at all and there was something so beautiful about that moment, that just for a second I didn't feel lost. I felt in awe of such a small but amazing thing. Of snow and all of its beautiful glory. It is funny how strong of memories get attached to music and how one event can be so powerful that it is forever associated with a song or artist. Music is very important, it is the artistic way of explaining our emotions, and translating them so powerfully that other people will fall into it and truly understand with the artist. That everyone will feel the same emotions together, even if they are far away. Music is something that is truly beautiful and something that I look to when I feel like I need direction. It can explain and understand so many things about ourselves that we may not even be ready to explain or understand ourselves. I adore music and I wouldn't have it any other way. It is beautiful and magical and helps get us through life. 2/6/2017 0 Comments Why do we play Video Games?For me video games give me a sense of purpose. Sometimes real life has things going on that aren't so great or you just aren't really getting to be the hero in real life or many other reasons. Video games give us something that we may not get in real life. They allow us to be the hero or... the villain. They can relieve stress and be relaxing or challenge us. Video games have something for everyone. Personally I am competitive and like completing goals, and I like the stories. With how much I like making up stories it is actually kind of surprising that I'm not a huge lore person. One of the really cool things about MMO's especially is that they tell a bunch of different stories. If you think about an author and that they have a couple of books, that is all well and good but if you think about an MMO and how many little stories go into all of those characters. How many unique individuals you will find while playing the game is pretty crazy. These games inspire me, all of the work that goes into developing a world, one in which people feel more at home than they may in real life. That is pretty magical. For me I love that you get to be the hero and that if you continue working at something you will get it. It is a very powerful message, and one that is important to learn. The never give up, never surrender attitude that game designers help build is something pretty powerful. Plus in video games we get to go to some really beautiful places. This art inspires me, looking into the distance of mountains and snow is beautiful and someone created that. Actually a lot of people worked together to create that. They worked together to make these beautiful worlds full of wonder and majesty.
I play video games for many reasons but some of my favorites are the inspiration they give me, and the challenges I have to overcome. 2/5/2017 0 Comments Old Dalaran World of WarcraftI love Dalaran so much, before Legion came out it was one of the things I was most excited about. Dalaran once again is the main hub. I always thought a city flying in the sky was cool, I mean its a city in the sky what can really beat that. One of my favorite things to do was jump out of Dalaran and see if I bubbled or levitated in time before a hit the ground, as this was the most efficient way to get to the bottom (I missed more times than I would care to mention... lol). There is something really happy about this city and it sitting over the Crystalsong Forest adds to that. The Crystalsong Forest is a pretty area (I love the trees) and it has something really magical about it. Going from ICC to Dalaran really has a nice contrast to it. I mean look at those big fluffy cotton candy clouds! They are so peaceful, warm, and inviting. Purple and white are some of my favorite colors so this sky is perfect for me. That happy lavender with the slightly pink clouds is very pretty, and the sky when it is night time full of stars and galaxies is pretty awesome. I've been in awe many times by the happy wonderful surroundings, it really is no wonder I fell in love with this place, or that many other people did as well. Snuggles and I have had some pretty great adventures here. If only Dalaran would give up one of its secrets to me. Every time I come here I look for this one last book. I have been so close to finishing this achievement for literally years lol. Not that long ago I actually saw a book in that spot but it was one of the trick books. I thought finally I would be able to finish this ever illusive achievement but nope it juked me once again XD. Oh Dalaran please one of these days give up your secrets I just need one more book! It was empty today, not even a trick book XD. One of these days I will find you! One of these days... I am okay with coming back and looking (as long as the end goal is finding it at some point) as I love old Dalaran and Northrend in general. I love doing the raids, and just messing around here in general! While I was writing this someone else actually stopped by this spot looking for the book lol. The only reason I noticed them was because the game in the background said "Sunflower" I managed to catch them flying away because there was no book XD. Dalaran is one of my favorite places, and I am really happy that the mages in Legion decided to move it so I can visit New Dalaran as well!
2/4/2017 0 Comments Home Instance. Guild Wars 2The home instance is pretty neat as you end up here for your personal story it is a place you know pretty well, and then if you're like me, you know it well because of the gathering nodes. Personally I think the home instance would be a great foundation for housing (especially since a lot of the code should be in/already made because of guild halls). Having an area that is separate and your own is pretty cool. These trees grow fast XD. And it is Christmas all year round! I kind of want to leave up our beautiful white Christmas tree (in real life) all year round because they are so happy and pretty! It is pretty cool that you can get a present everyday, I love getting presents everyday! Even though I know it will probably be festive drinks and food, I am still excited to see what I will get (plus they sell for a decent bit of gold!). I want housing to be added so bad! I could see my house fitting nicely back here. This seems like the perfect place for it, since they already have an area sectioned off. I really hope they do put it in as it would be the perfect touch to complete the home instance and would make the name very fitting!
2/3/2017 0 Comments Sylvanas and Jaina ScoodiesI wanted to make some Scoodies (scarf hoodies) because they are pretty awesome. I'm not much of a normal hat person, nor am I a standard scarf person. I do like hoodies though and always have so a Scoodie seemed perfect, but it couldn't be an ordinary one. So, I was thinking what could I do that would be video game related and be a Scoodie and that is how I came up with the Sylvanas Scoodie and the Jaina Scoodie. Sylvanas Scoodie of course had to come first because she is one of my favorite characters! With the Jaina Scoodie I had to be holding Lich King Kitty XD. I like being able to bring something from the game into real life and to have it be a functional item, and these hit all of those marks! This one was from an order and he picked some really awesome colors. The lavender and charcoal look really nice together, I thought it was so pretty when I was making it :D. I made all of them so that the colors can be customized (which I personally think is pretty cool since I like options, and this way they can be tailored to the person's tastes :D). I can't wait to see what other colors will be picked, no matter what I feel like I could see them on the Sylvanas or Jaina (especially in the Heroes of the Storm versions!).
I love making these and am really glad I can bring a little piece of one my favorite games into reality! 2/2/2017 0 Comments Paladin World of WarcraftI look at the back of them most of the time so why not start with a picture of her shield lol. My paladin is the other half of my control. She just does it in a different way. I don't know how many times I've had bad tanks where aggro is on the healers and dps. It gets annoying, so I made a tank. Paladins have always been strong and especially during their hay day in WotLK. So this was the class I picked and on top of everything they could heal too, which I always liked as I've dabbled a bit in healing paladin as well. My paladin is the one that I actually do all of my solo stuff on. I do all of the old raids on my paladin, reputation, and daily quests. She is a badass, normally I pull 10 things at a time and kill them all :3. Efficiency at its best. My paladin holds a place in heart but its not as special as my priests. I didn't miss her the same way I missed my priest when I stopped playing WoW for a bit. She is the character that I do most things on but I remember the things I gained from playing her more than playing her. In WotLK it was different because I played both of my priest and paladin more equally. Taking both of them into raids and whatnot, but since then I haven't really done raids seriously. I just do them in short bursts with my family then we just kind of stop. I haven't even done Trials of Valor and the Nighthold is already out... My paladin is the one who brings justice, and fights for those in need. She gives freedom, but does it with holy light. That is what this picture says to me, and what paladins as a class say to me. I love my holy characters very much. They just feel right, if I were to pick an alignment it would probably be lawful good so holy characters have always fit that bill. They are pure of heart and that is something I aspire to be. I fall into those characters so easily and nothing else seems right. This is kind of random but as a side note I really love the way consecration looks in Legion. It wasn't that big of a change but the small differences really felt right. It felt like she should be bringing down holy light from the sky. Over all my paladin is special to me. You can tell when I've really been set on a character because I won't change their hair or face. When I've decided that is who they are that is who they stay. My paladins armor may change but she will always be a badass, and the one I go to when I want to do anything solo.
I've been a vegetarian since I was 5 years old. I like cooking, but not for myself. I've been crocheting since I was very little and my mom taught me. When I was little I wanted to be a model and I've always thought cosplaying was pretty cool! I am socially anti-social, I like talking with people but don't really like playing with people. When I game I have a mission in mind and don't really like straying from it XD. World of Warcraft
