my nerdy life

So not much new, just games and such, as always. I’m soooo happy to be on Christmas break from work!!! YESSS! More time for World of Warcraft and other such games. Speaking of which I gave up on my Troll character (sorry Exercia!) and started a Blood Elf character. She’s pretty rad!

Her name is Nephthysia (the egyptian goddess of death and night) she’s level 21 already, and that little cute dino behind her is her pet Agumon! He’s a level 21 as well and a super good fighter! He keeps me alive quite often. I’m really stoked to get to level 30 because then I can afford a mount, no more of this walking every where crap.

I’ve also been on GaiaOnline.com alot. Making some sweet sweet gold by doing artwork for people. I have a shop called SigPets, it’s purpose is to design pets for people to put in their signature. These are some designs I’ve made so far:



I’ve made a good 10,000 gold doing it so far. It’s pretty fun. I’m questing to get a Kiki Cat Plush, for those of you who are familiar with Gaia, it’s a super rare and expensive item.

This is my character so far:



We match!
If anyone plays GaiaOnline my username is LadyMascara, feel free to add me!

Well that’s about all that’s new, going home for Christmas tomorrow, really excited about that. I got Wrath of the Lich King for Christmas from Mitch, AWESOME. So that’s all I’ve been doing is playing that game.

Hopefully my next blog will by more eventful. Happy Holidays! xo

dear world of warcraft, i'm back in the game

So I decided to get a new account and try again, since my old account won’t let me in. I think I need to pay for this month. So I thought I’d be a cheapo and get a new account and use the trial version for 10 days. This is only because I asked a certain somebody for Wrath of the Lich King for Christmas. And since he works at Best Buy, he might even be able to get a deal on it.

Wouldn’t it be strange if he got me a game for Christmas and I got him clothes? Usually it’s the other way around. I need to step up my game and find something awesome for him. Hmm maybe I’ll do some shopping today when he’s at work.



So this is Excercia. She is a troll on the side of the Horde. That means she is awesome and not part of the crappy Alliance. She’s not very cool looking yet, or strong. She’s a Hunter, but she doesn’t have any pets yet or a mount. I only started playing again yesterday! She’s level 7 right now. But when she gets up to level 10 I’m going to go catch her a cute raptor pet!!! I’m so excited! His name will be Agumon… obviously. Then eventually when I’m level 30 I’ll get an awesome dinosaur mount I can ride around every where. So I’m pretty excited. I have one of my good friends helping me out in quests. His name is Cinderfella. And he’s a Troll like me and an awesome player. If you’re on the Ravenholt server go ahead and add me! Eventually I’ll be good enough to go on instances and big quests to get awesome gear. Right now I’m just a pathetic noob *sighs*. But I’d love lots of friends to play with! So add me!

So I’m pretty excited for Christmas. I have lots of awesome gift ideas for my family. I just need to think of something to get my boyfriend. I want to get him something not lame, something more exciting than clothes. But he doesn’t really want anything other than a big screen tv. But I’m not rich haha. Well I hope you all are doing good back home, and here in Ottawa. I miss all of you. And I’ll be home soon!

For now take care, and for those other nerds out there, see you on warcraft!!!!

and here it is: my christmas list

This is for those with a credit card or paypal account. This is my list of all the wonderful things I’d love to receive for Christmas *cough* Mom *cough* Mitchell. To go to the eBay auction click on the picture.

Okay okay enough with my wishlist. Let’s talk about something always awesome … X-men. I watched it last night, and I totally forgot how awesome it is! I got the awesome idea of me and my boyfriend going as X-Men characters this next Halloween. I know it’s a long time coming, but it will give me lots of time to design and sew our costumes! We want to go as the comic book version of the characters, not the movie version…. apparently I just the word awesome a lot. D:

I’m going as Rogue.



Maybe my costume won’t be so… intense. I’m stoked on the random jacket though.

Mitch is going as Wolverine. ….. HAWT.



I’m excited to do his hair all wolverine style. Making the costumes is going to be hard but so fun. To bad Rogue doesn’t have a weapon. I want to carry around a sword or something. I have NO idea how I’m going to make wolverine’s claws, but I’m sure I’ll figure something out. And then in November there’s a comic convention here in Ottawa, so we can wear our costumes to that too. Haha NERDSSSSS.

Okay, so my friend Shannon made some super funny ecards for me and some of our friends. They were SOOOOO funny. All you do is go to Jibjab.com. And you’ll see there’s an option to make your own ecards. It’s actually little videos someone filmed of elves running around doing funny things. But they paste pictures of peoples heads over the elves heads. So you upload images of your friends and family and it places them over the elves heads in the ecard, only they are very exaggerated. So funny! Only it cost 5$. So Mom, sorry I was going to send you one. But there’s a thing called money…. and yeah … I don’t have any. But I love you! :D

So I’ve started my giftlist for people. I’m getting some pretty good ideas for presents for certain people. I’m pretty excited about it. The only person I have no idea about is my bf. So any ideas? If I can’t think of anything better I know I’m going to just end up getting him clothes. Haha I suck.

Well until next time, enjoy the crappy snowy weather! xoxox

everyone, meet agumon

Name: Agumon “Oggle” McEachern
Age: Baby dinosaur
Hobby: Burning things and being cute
Home: The digital world, and my pillow
Favourite Video Game: Digimon World Dawn/Dusk
Origin: Digimon, Digital Monsters (The TV Show, Not to be confused with Pokemon. And no, Digimon is NOT a rip off of Pokemon because it came out first.)



Why Agumon is so awesome:

He is orange, he’s soft and fuzzy, he has a big belly, he has a little stubby tail, he breathes fire, he’s probably the strongest and the most charismatic of all the Rookie Digimon, he can talk (in the show), he comes in three different colors (black, white and orange), he’s soooo huggable, he doesn’t say his own name over and over again Aaaaagggumon-mon?, he can digivolve into Skullgreymon COOL, he’s a cute baby dinosaur.

This two of the best games you can buy for Nintendo DS:



So addictive and fun! Who wouldn’t want to own farms of cute talking creatures? You can train them and feed them and love them! And evolve them many different ways! These will forever be some of my favourite games.

This is my training card:



It shows all my digimon from Digimon World 4 in their Rookie form. Drawn by me.

Okay it’s official I’m the biggest damn nerd ever. I own every single season of Digimon ever on DVD. I even have a Digimon Corset, custom made just for me. Gawwwd I’m a nerd ^_^;

Anyone else this obsessed with Digimon? Or am I alone in the world. o_O

meeee

Okay so I decided to do my hair a little different. Well if you know me well you know that I change my hair color ALOT. Like I actually died it burgundy only a week ago, now it’s getting died again. It took me a while to figure out what I wanted to do with it. But now I have it all picturized in my brain, and it’s going to look awesome :). I won’t say what I’m doing, but I’ll post a pic when it’s done. Lets just say I’m putting a color in it that I’ve never done before. Which is strange because I’ve done almost every color of the rainbow by now. I cut it last night, tried a few new things. I left it long in front of my right ear but then cut it short behind it. But on my left ear I left it super long on both sides. It’s interesting and different. I even cut the back all choppy. My bf got tired of holding a mirror of me so I could see the back of my head haha. What a good kid :). Lurrrrrve you! So I’m pretty pleased with the out come. I love being able to cut my own hair, I can make it EXACTLY the way I want it. I cut my bf’s hair too, to make it EXACTLY the way I want it too haha. So cute ^_^.

Okay enough boring crap about my hair.

Well thanks if you read through all that haha!

Now I leave you with a cute picture that I drew:

model me

So I updated my Model Mahem profile today stating I’m looking for some work now that I’ve moved to Ottawa. I don’t even care if it’s for free. I want some model pictures in my portfolio I can be proud of. My pics I have so far are a joke. I really need to work with a real professional photographer and get some real pictures taken. Who knows? Maybe some day I’ll be able to get PAYING jobs. Wouldn’t that be nice. It’s great to have a look that can swing both on the alternative side, and on the classic side. Alternative seems to be what’s in right now. I want to do some classic Pin-Up photos, with no nudity of course. Just some thing fun, cute and tasteful. It gives me an excuse to wear cute clothes and do my hair all funky. It might also be a great way to meet other artists and models in the Ottawa area. I know like NO ONE here. I’m pretty much a hermit at this point. I haven’t even been to any clubs yet *gasps*.

So if you have a chance take a look at my “portfolio”, if you can call it that.

CLICK HERE XO

So other newssssss…

Some one should totally buy me these for Christmas:

Click on the picture, it links to the eBay auction ;) *hint hint*.

Soooooooooo cute. I can’t wait to buy Christmas decorations for my new apartment. I want them all to be pink and white! Even the tree. Doubt the old bf would concur haha.

Well not so much new to report here. Now back to some eBay surfing and spaghetti cooking. Later days xo.

games I'm currently playing

Neopets! Remember that site from when you were like in grade 7? I sure do, I’m pretty sure my Neopets are long dead by now. Anyways, they’re branching out into the real world, outside the computer screen and into the psp screen. This game is actually really fun and way more advanced than I thought it would be. It’s actually really challenging and is packed with fun things to do and discover. It’s really hard at some parts and I die a lot. I don’t know how little kids would ever be able to play this. Either that or I really suck at life. It’s really cute to equip your little friends with different clothing and weapons. And unlike most games when you equip things on them you can actually see it on them when you’re playing. You can even find secret water falls in the game that changes your characters color. It’s not for everyone. But for those who love cute things and action RPGs this is a really fun game to play! I give it three and a half cupcakes out of five!



Okay I might be a dork, but I friggin love this game. No actually I’m addicted to it! I play it 24/7. At home, on the bus, pretty much in my sleep. It has loads of minigames that are fun, and addicting to play. Okay maybe only the gambling ones are addicting. But all I really want is to get a bagillion points so I can get loads of cool items! The point of this game is to go around and hype up a dying resort town. Haha I know that sounds really lame, and VERY EA Games like. But it’s really fun and it sucks you right in. There’s lots of things to do, go fishing, paragliding, scuba diving, making leis, talking to sims, decorating landscape, playing several different card games, checking out discos, and even designing your own furniture and clothing, and decorating your home. I’m obsessed with designing my own stuff, must be the Graphic Designer in me *wink*. And there’s plenty more to do once you completed the games storyline. I give this game four cupcakes out of five! I would give it four and a half, but the first time I ever played this game it got glitched and I couldn’t get past one part. I had to restart my game in order to advance past the part I was stuck in. But I found out that every time you play it it’s a little bit different.



I haven’t even taken this game out of the wrapper yet. But I’ll definitely write about it once I’ve played it.

Hope you enjoy my reviews! If you know any games that you think I will like please feel free to tell me in my comment section!

Games I’m going to purchase in the future:

• Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories
• Monster Lab
• Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood

Let's Make This Quick

Just something I wrote in a minute or less. It’s made up of nothing… or perhaps everything. That’s for you to decide.

this feeling
it’s so deep inside
i can’t escape it’s evil glare

it’s like a message
a warning sign
telling me to be on awares

this sickness
so overwhelming
so endlessly clear

these feelings
so vacant yet vivid
so hopelessly near

it’s crawling up
up from my insides
into my throat it clings

this noise
so obviously changing
it grabs my head till it stings

you’re fading
blackness surrounds you
the emptiness makes itself near

the ending
it’s conscience exploding
my mind melts down with this fear
