Where’s the Christmas hiding?

I was in a semi-not great mood when writing this, so if my grammar is off and I’m overly blunt/perhaps not saying things in the nicest way, please forgive me for that and not using euphemisms. I didn’t proofread this either. Ah well. On to what I wrote now.

So, it’s been a day and some since the new Christmas patch came out, and I must say, I’m liking most of the changes. The day of the patch, I woke up at the exact time the patch was supposed to be finished, since I expected it to “be delayed for an hour and thirty minutes.” and that they were “sorry for the inconvenience.”, figuring that I’d have time to freshen up and all that while the patch was being finished. As a lot of you may know, though, there was indeed an announced server check and no one or very few people could get on, so I had to find something to do. I was in the mood to watch TV, but not the same garbage I see on TV every now and then. No, instead, I decided to watch some Gundam 00 episodes. Awesome series. Love the opening song, too. Daybreak’s Bell ~ L’Arc~en~Ciel. read more

Two Kinds of Reflection.

This is a rather late entry, since I meant to put this up earlier as the first part is about last week’s event and such. The second part is about something that touches more on the emotional side of us all, if you’re a decent human being, that is. If you don’t care to read the second part, just stop reading after the pseudo tag. In the future, entries will be less frequent like now because I’m on break for college (a ridiculously long break), so I’m going to be doing a lot of traveling and such. read more

A Mouse and a Rocket.

Who says Clint Mansell and MapleStory don’t work together? Not I, said the fly. For those of you don’t know who Clint Mansell is, if I remember correctly, he’s the man who’s responsible for the work “Requiem for a Dream.” I could be wrong. I was listening to his music as I was mindlessly grinding along as is such to most maplers. Training today wasn’t so bad, though I didn’t do a whole lot of it. Guess I can make it up tomorrow or something, maybe. Today, while my wife was on, and we were training together, this random guy came by us and called us a cute couple with a nice little smiley face and all. That was one of those defining moments that you think redeems the epitomy of the Broan society (or lack thereof F7), but sadly, it wasn’t. Still though, it was nice. read more

Oh, Broather.

Why yes, the title is meant to be a satire. Why, you ask? Not sure, exactly. Just rather disappointed in Broa, I suppose.

Oh Broa, my fair Broa, how I shan’t miss thee when I am gone, someday.

If you hadn’t gathered that I’m a Broan, you know now, at least. I’m not going to lie, I like MapleStory…sort of, but I liked it a lot more back when it was, well…fun. I remember training in my tree dungeons in my early 2x to platoon chronos around 5x. I never really PQed, though when I did, it was always with friends, and I must say, I rather enjoyed doing that…even if I didn’t know how to do it. How I miss those times, but I fret not, for I am much welcoming the new times, in its own way. read more

Well, this is certainly new.

Well, I thought I might start writing again. Who knows how this’ll turn out. I still don’t understand exactly how this works and wonder if I can make these entries private, or if they have to be read by other people regardless. Ah well, what can I do? I just like writing, I suppose.

I have exams later today. I should probably be sleeping. Ah well. read more
