WB to moi!


out with old, in with the new :-)

So.... it's been ages since I last wrote anything on here. I have to admit I was pretty entertained and occupied with some FB apps! I've had a Face Book account made two years ago but I had to deactivate it because I didn't like its privacy settings but now that they've made quite a number of changes to it making it a bit safer to some extent I gave it another go. The main reason I started a FB account again is to keep in touch with some WoW [world of warcraft] friends because I didn't want to lose contact with them just because I've quit the game. Ah yes I have indeed! After four and a bit years of playing it with such passion I have decided it's time to retire the leggy Foxychick. I have nothing else to prove in Azeroth and Blizzard has stripped the game of challenges that made me love the game to begin with, and recently they stripped it off of the brilliant lore behind each and every one of the characters that I thought, "there is nothing left for me here in Azeroth". So I turned my back on WoW but not on the friends that I made along the way. I have been an absolute rubbish at keeping in touch with friends and those who have tried to reconnect with me I successfully ignored, but not purposely. "Mamaya" is my most hated word now. It doesn't really translate to 'later' because later could mean tomorrow or next year, at a more convenient time where as "mamaya" leans more toward the immediate future, so it's more like 'in a bit'. I remember telling James what 'mamaya' means and when I asked him about getting a dog, he said to me: "Of course we'll get one, I'd love a dog as well. Mamaya, all right?". Yeah I wish!
So anyway, I had that attitude for too long when it comes to answering emails and such. I just say I'll do it mamaya. And mamaya never comes.
The new FB is better and I quite like the changes they made to it. I encouraged my mum and brother to get on it and add me so we can all keep in touch even when I can't be bothered writing emails. And now it's all brill! I even get to play some of the FB games with my brother since he has also quit WOW. What can I say? I am that ace that when I quit, James and Vij followed my lead haha. Well James have always just enjoyed playing it with me and the same is true for me. I got him in a hardcore 25HC raiding guild and he cleared all the bosses and got fed up. So now when he is not doing some D.I.Y.s in the flat, he plays Dragon Age Origins. He likes playing it as the challenge of the game is so refreshing after playing WOW this past year. I think my brother thought we abandoned him and his guild but the truth is I just got sick of the game and the idiots that I don't have to put up with. I don't put up with real life idiots so the same rule applies for any game.

Anyhow, the good news of the day is:
I got a new laptop! In the end, performance won over cosmetics. I'm very pleased about it =>
