maybe i should use twitter
just like everybody else… maybe i really should.
there are times that i just want to post something quick, short like: “patient, i need to be patient.” after the stupid arguments with some a guildie over a stupid issue. i know i was just annoyed (well, maybe not “just” but extremely,) and said stuff on guild forum that got moderated later on.
yes, i need to be patient.
and yes, probably twitter is a good way to get stuff out of my chest.

transformation of a shaman
it’s been about 2 weeks after i got my shaman to 80 and there have been a lot of changes to him.
i leveled him from 1 to about 75 as an enhancement shaman which i think he had enough good abilities to solo some group quests, especially in outland. when i hit northrend for the first time, i didn’t level alone. the need of soloing capability had faded a bit so i turned him elemental until i reach 80.
with my priest being 71, i thought i’d make him a healer so i wanted to keep shaman dpsing. in one heroic run, i was elemental which was fine then i went back to try enhancement in the instance… it was tough!
being a ranged class like forever, it was that easy for me to pick the target, hit it from behind, etc. i knew melee wasn’t made for me, just yet.
after that run, i switched to restoration and got my other shaman friend to switch back to elemental… i think i’m hooked.
so now my shaman is a healer, willingly. i got him into a naxx10 run (after our unsuccessful “undying” attempt) and came out with lots of healing loots (nice!)
three icks: enhancement, elemental, and restoration.

goodbye my in-dash stereo receiver
i got to my car around 7:15 this morning… it looked ok.
i got into the car. hmm, something was wrong. the driver’s seat was pushed toward the back… what’s going on here.
i looked at the dashboard. damn, someone got into my car and took it overnight. i checked and there are something else missing, too: the fastrak transponder (my 2nd one,) the remote control of the stereo, the cradle, mount, power cable of my gps (just those, the gps unit is in my apartment.) i guess that’s it.
not sure if i forgot to lock my car properly? i know i didn’t turn on the car alarm since some neighbor was complaining about the noise. i remember i got it on, then changed my mind, turned it off and locked the car manually.
last night/this morning is the garbage time. people put their bins on the curbs and lots of people coming by, looking into those recyclable stuff — i’m guess it’s one of them.
i know if i tell my mom about this, she’s gonna tell me to go to the temple and do something good for myself.

80, for the second time
my alt (or new main,) a shaman just turned 80 this morning. took me a few (busy) weeks to get him to 80.
one reason i wanted to level him was to get some jewel crafting recipes which happen to be drop-only stuff. also, our 10-man group could probably use the unique-to-shaman “heroism.”
time to gear up!

i beat the content
about a month after i hit 80, my guild theorectically just beat the current wrath content (well, all bosses are killed) on sunday and i was in the raid, yay. i think blizzard just made the first few raid instances a bit on the easy side. i heard the new one (in patch 3.1) would be a lot tougher. well, we’ll see.
this is the screenshot after we kill malygos, the current final boss of wrath content.

new year’s resolution: put myself before others
i feel like i’ve been used by people around me. sometimes, from asking for a favor (which by all means, it is fine) to making it a routine job i need to take care of every now and then. i don’t think i can do this any longer.
someone told me that i’m a nice person. some coworkers said i wad the nicest guy in the company, or at the least, the nicest graphic designer. but being kind and nice shouldn’t make me be the one being *asked for a favor* all the time.
it’s already a new year and i am hoping to become a better person. a person that don’t have to suffer running other people’s errands, especial those that aren’t my family member or those i consider friends.
yes, i hope i can do it…

i turned 80
this morning 1am-ish.
it took me about 2 weeks to get him from 70 to 80.
i got back from thailand on the 22nd and first logged back on on the 25th but actually played him over the weekend (29th-ish.) thanks my in-game and real life friend that helped me instancing and questing. this was faster than i thought i’d make.

i’m glad i got out
…before the airports were shut down.
i went to thailand and was there for 2 weeks (nov 9-22.) just a few days after i left, the pad protesters besieged the bangkok airports, both the old and the new ones.
i think i’m lucky i left a few days before this happaned. there are lots of things (job-wise) i need to do here at work…

what not to wear
if you’re in thailand now or going to thailand soon, forget about these two colors. don’t wear the red or yellow shirt. why?
red is the color of pro-taksin people while yellow is for the anti-taksin. taksin is long gone from the pm seat but i guess he still has influences over stuff in thailand so the anti-taksin protesters or the so-called pad are still everywhere in bangkok, doing what they have been doing (protest…)
regardless of how i think/feel about this whole thing, i’d rather stay neutral and wear my very color: grey, like i always do. heh…
