So for the most part right now, I'm playing TERA every other weekend when they open the closed beta tests and replaying the Diablo 3 beta over and over again with the different classes since the beta is more of a teaser than a real beta!! 

My thoughts are... TERA is awesome, it's been well worth the wait of over a year since I got bored with WoW and went looking for something that could be the next big thing. The graphics in this game are amazing! There is such much detail on the character models, the mobs, and the scenery, there's not a missed detail anywhere! In addition, sure it's the traditional run here, run there, kill this, kill that questing, but the combat is definitely different than any other MMO I've played and because of that I really like it. No more with the "okay I'm locking target on you so my hits and spells are coming at you no matter how much you try to hop and jump around like a demented bunny on speed" in TERA you have to physically land your spell or hit on a mob to do damage. So if you miss, you miss. This is pretty cool to because if you are good at evasive manuever you can conceivable go an entire fight without taking a single point of damage. I have to say, it's living up to its hype!

Diablo 3 has been hard to really get a sense of since the beta is just a small part of ACT I. The gameplay does not appear to have changed much. The characters we know and love are back again, such as Deckard Cain! :) The new artisan crafting system appears to have some potential to be pretty cool, but other than that I haven't been able to see what the game will really be like. I'm a bit disappointed in this one, I've seen nothing in the beta that justifies a decade of waiting, but I am still eagerly anticipating it's release, if Blizzard ever sets a friggin release date!

Happy Mother's Day to all my friends here who are mothers :)

FOR MOMS

She was there at the beginning
When the world was new to you -
She was there to turn to happy times
Those when, you were hurt or blue.

She was there to listen to your thoughts
And when you asked, to give advice -
She was there to tell you, "Those don't match!"
Or, "Hon, you sure look nice."

She was there with you at nighttime
To help you say your prayers _
She was there to tell you, "It's alright."
When you had a dream that scares.

She was there at morning time
To get you up and out of bed -
She was there when you didn't feel good (or did)
To say, "You'd best stay home, instead."

She was there when you were hungry
And when you had those dirty clothes -
She was there when you needed her
(How she knew? Only heaven knows.)

She was there at the beginning
And she'll be there your whole life through -
She'll be there in your mind and heart
Just like a mother is supposed to do.

Currently I am only playing WoW - I know, right? Me the one with game-related ADD lmao and more than that, currently I am concentrating on leveling my blood elf priest that I just transferred to Garrosh, she's 42 now heh and I will be playing only her until I've gotten her to 80, her name is Vanyssa, so anyone looking for me in game can find me there almost any given night. Not as much time to play anymore what with working 45 to 55 hours a week, but oh I do make time!!!! :)

sooo... i'm sure my friends have noticed i've been pretty MIA ever since about july... i moved from PA to NY and once i got here i thought i was with friends and in a safe place, but i couldn't have been more wrong. the "friends" i was staying with were using me, they took my car all the time and left me home with their 1 year old baby, forcing me to watch him, they'd leave me there without food for hours on end, if it wasn't for the one friend i made here in NY before they started screwing me bad, i'd have starved. when i told them i needed my car for job hunting they'd be sure to be up before i was and gone with my car, after about a month and a half i'd had enough. i lost a lot of my friends during this time and i love all of you who never gave up on me. when i decided to leave, i thought i'd be going back to ohio, however the friend i'd made here didn't want to see me go and he invited me to stay at his apartment until i could get on my feet. from there i got a good job and have made so many new and wonderful friends here in NY... after only 3 months at my job i have been promoted to being a trainer... i have a wonderful roommate who's like family to me now... :) thank you again to all my friends who never gave up on our friendship when i disappeared and who worried about the way my life was heading, i really do love you all :)

hehe = fun!!! was so excited when i got into the beta,having tons of fun playing my death knight *grins* glitches,bugs,and lag aside,it's great!

so you may or may not have noticed i've been MIA for a few months now...well mostly starting when i first left Ohio back in July actually - so here's the deal

Left Ohio in July after breaking up with my fiance who was mistreating me in various ways - from there i spent some time in Missouri with my best friend and her husband who had just found out they were expecting their first :)

From there i went on to Arizona,spent about a month there,had some good times,had some bad times and in the end ended up going back to Missouri to stay with my best friend and her husband again for a lot of personal reasons and of course also the fact that she really wanted me there because,from all the children my mom has had,i know a lot about pregnancy.

i spent until the beginning of December in Missouri,quiet and at peace with myself but never really feeling i belonged there as i never made any friends outside of the house...well there was that one guy... *giggles* but that's another story ;) Around the end of November it was made known to me that both my grandma and my great-grandma's healths were failing and i decided i was needed at home,i made my plans to leave only to get a call 5 days before i was scheduled to leave that my great-grandma had died,i rushed home the next day.

i spent time in Ohio,being with my family,feeling revitalized by my time with them,i'd missed my youngest brother,my sweetie,so much.but after having been out of Ohio i couldn't let myself settle there again,especially since feelings for my ex still threatened to renew,i had made something of a close relationship with a guy from Pennsylvania online and decided to take the plunge and move to be with him and see how a relationship would work between us.

i've been living in Pennsylvania about 3 months now,things have been shaky at times and i've been quite stressed with my job search,but i'm thinking i'm going to be happy here. :) hopefully i'll be able to be around more

Lol just felt the need to post about how utterly happy I am right now - just got the last piece I wanted of my dungeon 3 assasination set - I didn't want the helm,it sucks - but the 4 pieces are enough to get me my lovely set bonus :) got my shoulders,gloves,chest,and legs - so very happy  :)

Now I'm off to pvping lots of warsong and ab to get the tokens and honor I need to get my non-set epix - bracers and belt from there it's to arenas for my new weapons!

my friend created a monster when he got me my first piece of my dungeon 3 set cause now I'm on a kick to upgrade,upgrade,upgrade where before I was content with my greens now I want purples all over my screen!!! *grin*

okay well I'm going to try to go to sleep now,got work in the morning but I'm way too hyped up at the moment oh well,maybe I'll get my roommates to hit me over the head or something hehe

Well I found out that somehow won the lottery of scheduling lmao and got 4 days off in a row,on the weekend no less! Friday,Saturday,Sunday,and Monday - I'm now on Sunday of course and having a blast - Went out partying friday night with some really cool friends - stayed up late drinking,watching movies,and playing guitar hero :) saturday got up,got a new tatto (pic's up,check it out!),cleaned house,and went back out again for more drinking fun - even if I just sit on my ass playing WoW today and tomorrow I'm having a fucking kick ass weekend! :)
