Up with the work, down with the Dragon

Greetings from my cosy room back home!

1) Yay of the Day - Hard to yay with a tummy ache, but I took down today like 5 dragons in Skyrim /flex.
2) Dumb thing of the Day - Touched a hot bowl of soup when took if out the microwave, forgetting that silly machine heats up the bowl more than it actually heats up the soup...
3) Quote of the Day - "I used to be a D... ~dramatic pause~ ...But then I took an arrow to the knee...". Me joking with my best friend, during a long night talk.

SO! Barcelona was effing amazing, I will defo return to Spain someday. People are so nice and warm, so much to see... Me and my Aussie friends had loads of fun together, I love those guys. Even with the distance, they are best friends. One of the highlights of our little trip together, was the football game we went to watch <3 It was amazing, seeing Messi and the lads running on the field in front of my eyes. The flight back home was horrible... I sat next to the worst people (well, type of people) ever... Common rabble... The worst. T_T Couldn't even get some sleep, it was just me and Arthas... Cause I was reading the WoW Arthas book lol ^^ Thank you my lovely Sis for buying me this one.

For those of you who are not aware of the whole concept of the 'Arrow to the knee' jokes, allow me to explain in short. In Skyrim, a random gaurd tells you: "I used to be an adventurer like you, but then I took an arrow in the knee." Like taking an arrow to the knee is a another way to say "I used to be cool, man, but it all changed for me..." Basically, it became a thing over the internet and the Gaming commnunity. Arrow to the knee jokes are fun. Just try it out for yourself :) For the record, my friend was literally ROFL when I made this specific arrow to the knee joke.
In short, I really used to be a D (then I took an arrow to the knee), but due to medical issues and well.. weight lost, I am now a C... I'm pretty sure I don't need to explain these terms... >>

Still trying to find a job... >> Wish me luck people <3

Back to Skyrim (you won't escape this!) -  That game keep surprising me. I simply love it. Today I side tracked from my quest and went on a little exploring. Now, when you explore, you tend to find cool stuff.... What Iv'e found was like 5 dragons (even one with a name! like a mini boss!) that wished upon my quick death, and if it will be in fire, it will be all the merrier. Damn you dragons! You can't beat me, the hottest Dovahkiin in all of Skyrim! >> Actually, the only Dovahkiin in Skyrim, but my point is, I owned them, took alot of time and effort, but I did it (mega /flex). The storyline (without spoilers) keeps getting better and better with each of the main quests. I felt like ~Loregasm~ when I was playing through them quests. Simply amazing, the developers did a great job! It's like twist after twist after twist, now with more twists! Just like the current season of How I Met Your Mother. They have a twist now in every single episode this season! Not that I'm complaining of course, I love twists.

I managed to do some writing while I was in Barcelona. Now to put everything in the Story ^^ Oh, how I missed writing, it's so much fun. It's like gaming, only you do whatever the fuck you want with your characters. You are the God there. You own. /Bow. I really missed writing, while I was preparing for the exam, I rarely even had time to read my stories. I really neglected my guys >< I will make things right. :p No more stucking in one place for you!

Dear God, my room is such a mess T_T that's not me...

Till next time,
Hugs (that's my thing)

I got doughnuts!

Greetings from Spain!

1) Yay of the day - Pft, I´m at another country! And one a vacation! What can beat that?!
2) Dumb thing of the day - Walking around in circles, trying to figure out where is the corrent underground station, only to realize i have been going around in circles, and i passed it 3 times now T_T
3) Quote of the day - Doughnuts, i got doughnuts, i got... hey! i know you! (chief clancy wiggum, singing and spotting snake).

so as you might know, i am not at home nor on my computer. im not used to the keyboard and therefore am not gonna try and make the passage look pretty as i normally do. it has been a pain so far getting used to the spanish keyboard at the hotel. god bless them for giving me to use their interent free of charge.
a wonderful new year is upon us! i am more than happy to be over with my exam, cause it has been tearing me apart. i finally took a vacation after 4 years i havent left my country. it feels amazing and starngly weird, as if i never left my country, and just the building changed, people started talking in spanish, and everything now is with € (how cool is this?! i can make weird looking letters now which i dont have on my normal keyboard!!). so far ive been traveling along, ive been one less than 24 hours away from home, and... damn i feel extremely independed! tomorrow i'll meet up with my good friends from australia, and we´re gonna rock this city to the ground! its gonan be legendary -(oh yeah, barney style).

skyrim has been amazing so far! this game never cease to amaze and surprise me! i mena, it has everything you can want in a game! starting from amazing questlines, to stories, loot, and the options! damn so much options! ive been playing for 3 weeks now and i only reached lvl 39. im a badass looking dovahkiin (and oh yes, im a dude there) and... well, i try to do the right thing. it normally doesnt work and there is always a dragon appearing in the exact time i have full bags and cant carry its stupid bones and scales. im gonan do every bit of quest in this game. i simply love how every character there, even with the most minor role, has a story to tell. like young lars battle-born is being bullied around by a girl, and that he likes to tease the neighbours' oxes. also, you can actually play tag with the kids in towns and cities!! and even hide and seek.
i dunno if it means im a horse bully, but my horse Allie died twice from dragon attacks. i know, she´s a badass, but... she didnt need to die! its so sad when your helpless horse dies out, defending its master´s life. with no spoliers, i think its going to get even more big that i already have seen yet. it really is the most exciting and amazing game ive seen recently. i cant wait to continue there! :D

yes. dont mention it. im using the word amazing far too much.

there is so much for me to tell just yet. sadly, still no ICC raid, and this time, i can´t blame Neil. i didnt show up or even bothered to wow now that i have skyrim. i´ll be back eventually, but first i need to get the skyrim out of my system :P
thankfully, now all i have to worry about is finding a job. why do i say thankfully? its a lie. getting a job now is extremely difficult. there are tons of lay offs now, and what are the odds of me getting a job now? its all about connections. i got a temp job, as a subtitue teacher, only because my mother is a full time teahcer. how stupid is this what a subtitue makes more than a full time teacher in my country? really this world is messed up. no jokes. like yesterday, i got ripped off on the fucking bus. they doubled the price... started from janurary first. i mean, wtf people are barely get money to finish the month. how come they raise prices, on everything, and not even raise the salaries of the working people.... stupid economy.

funny story for the end. right after my exam, after i literally sat on my ass and solved an exam for 3 and a half hours, my dad came to pick me up from the university. we went out for lunch and then off to buy skyrim <3 what are the odds to search the entire city´s computers stores and literally hunt this game and find the last copy in the city in a little store, whom already saved me before and had copies of games? now thats what i call a quest! hunt down the last copy of skyrim in the city so you can play into the night.
also, let me tell you how much of a geek i am. really now, in every game, you explore places. then when you reach a new place you see DISCOVERED and then the place´s name. i saw in front of my eyes when the plane landed DISCOVERED: Spain. and then, Barcelona. oh my god. this is really the proof that i play too much video games. xD

have a fantastic week, readers! next post will be when i return from my vacation :)
