Easter Holiday

Wooo! It's that time of the year again!
Lovely lovely Easter! I love the Easter.
Normally we're on Okse, chillin', reading Donald Duck and just gorging in sweets... Such lovely sweets they are...
But no. This year we couldn't because the boat wasn't on water and the fjord was icy. Which sucked major balls. So disappointed.Anyway, before I left Swansea for good old Norway, I had Frank and Carina over.
But before I get to that... I may have bought an iPad. And mini dice. Because the natural thing, when you buy an iPad is to buy mini dice along with it.
Pimp yo pad.
Or dice bag, rather.

SIZE REFERENCE!

I needed to put in a picture of my shinypad <3 People probably know what an iPad look like, though...
BUT HERE IT IS!
I needed to sort of prove it.
Because I'm clearly a very materialistic person. And proud.
Mother fuckers.

It was glorious.

Regardless, Carina and Frank. In Swansea. That was glorious too.
Not much to do in Swansea, though. So we just faffed around doing not much, but still a few things here and there. And a bit of roleplaying too! We explored an abandoned house, went to the waterfront museum, didn't get to go to either Mumbles or the beach as the weather decided to go all Dick on us, but... Was nice!
Showed them all the important shops (read: game + comic shop) and they seemed pretty content with that. Which is good.

 We obediently signed the guestbook at the museum too...

 ...Being serious as ever! :D

We went and explored a house, too, on our way to roleplaying. It was fun. It had tickled my curiosity for so long... Well long and long, only discovered it like 2 weeks ago.. But still... LOOK! It looks super-haunted!



Carina is so funny. Inappropriate, but hilarious.

 "Haunted? Here? Nooo. Nono, Don't be silly. I swear we didn't have this terrible tragedy where an inhabitant went mad and burned everything, chased this person that was perfect to be the main character in a horror film into a room and exploded the floor. Not at all. Never even understand where you'd get those silly ideas."

"Well, had to make me own fun, hadn't I... Ain't that much to do fer an old cad like me self, innit. Thass why explodin' the ol' house seemed like a bloody good idea, right. I don't think i's faire is all. Callin' us evil. Boredom drove us to it!"
- The Poltergeist of Dorothy Exploding Doom.

"Suddenly, I could fly!"
- The wisp of Victor the Victim 

Yeah yeah, I had fun making that story up. :P

That was such a pretty place to take pictures.
I really wish we could enter the house. But seeing as most of it didn't even have a floor most places, it may have been for the best. Possibly. I definitely think that someone should fix them up, though. They are gorgeous houses, and even though haunted to fuck, they would probably make attractive living quarters. Especially for students who really endure anything to have a place to live. I mean look at some of the houses. They are covered in mould! Not good is it. I'd rather have a ghost to deal with.
Nasty nasty mould.

Speaking of, I believe we have fungus in our kitchen.
How nasty is that!
It sort of just "sprouts" whenever it's moist and not been cleaned for a while (which is happening more than you'd think)
It's vile.
I really can't wait until I get my own house. I'd love the one pictured above. Seriously. Would be freaking awesome. A bit of a fixer up-er. But... We all love a bit of a project, don't we! Could sell it off afterwards to a rich oil baron whom catches your fancy and then decide to take you to a trip to a far away land of doom and stuff, and then you discover you were brothers all along. Making it a rather happy family reunion.
Love it when that happens.
We went to Toys'r'us and looked at ninja turtles and ponies and doctor who toys for ages, which was fun. They each got a thing, and went happily out of there... Ever after...

OOH! OOOH!!! Frank really wanted to try The Beast at the Upland Diner, but he was told that he wasn't allowed to do so after 4 o'clock, which it happened to be, because they closed at 5. Which sucked. But Carina helped him out.
They didn't finish it.
Disappoint.
They sure did give it a valiant try though. They didn't want to even see food for the rest of that day, so I guess, all in all, it's not that expensive after all. Which is cool.

 They actually managed to clear off quite a lot of food. Alun popped by and helped too, which was nice, because wasting food is silly. And we don't like being silly, do we Pepper!?
This is their "Let's go jumping around vigorously whilst punching each other in the stomach"-pose. True story, bro.
 So that was really nice, having them over. I thoroughly enjoyed myself! There is not much to do in Swansea, but I think they had a decent enough time. We saw Oz and the Croods in the cinema, regrettably didn't get to go laser tagging... But was basically just what they missed. Went to an arcade and kicked a zombie butt, and everything. Lovely time!

 So then it was back to Norway! After a night of late-night hoovering (to, I'm guessing, my house-mate's rage and horror) washing and drying of clothes and about 2 hours of sleep. Nearly overslept as well. So happy I put on two alarms. Just.... Not even words for how happy I am nothing went wrong.

Then a lovely evening with Trudi and Randi, which was nice after only half-seeing them this Christmas... AND THEN to Ose. I don't like it much on that cabin. It was all right, don't get me wrong, but it was too hot. And I don't often say that.
It was nice, though. But two nights was enough for me. The Okse cabin is definitely the place I like the best. I suspect that my family only like places with O's in them. Okse is Ose with only a k. Haha. What an incredibly lame thing to point out.

CHEERIO!

BELIEBE!!!

Aaah... Hahaha! Aah I love saying that.
Beliebe... Haha, amazing.

It's Easter, soon! I can't freaking wait to go home! To see friends and family!
....I wonder how they'll react to my new baby... I kinda didn't tell...
Oh yeah, I kinda bought an iPad.
It is so shiny. I love it so much. It's like an epicly awesome and super-flat plank of wood that has got super-sci-fi properties of awesomeness.

Been watching a bit of South Park. There was this DaVinci code parody about easter where St Peter was a rabbit.

"Look at the pope's hat! It makes no sense. Except is was originally designed... For... A rabbit!"


So freaking glorious.

Blatherings of a Buffoon

Right, so I decided to talk about random things in my life.
I like to role-play. Like Dungeons & Dragons, World of Darkness, and so on. Love it.
Anything. It's awesome! Every DM or GM (Dungeon Master/Game Master, the gal/guy who runs the game, world and NPCs (None Player Characters) etc.) has got such a unique imagination, and interesting story line.
And now I have been lucky enough to join not one, but TWO new games!
I am so ecstatic.
It's not extremely busy with uni any more, as we had the last practical assessment today (well  technically yesterday). Hooray! I feel so sorry for my partner. Sorry, mate. You did amazing! Sorry I ruined everything!

...

That was three "sorries" in one line right there. Ridiculous.

The last role playing game I played we actually completed, which is really cool. We killed Orcus, the god. That was pretty fucking awesome.
Like, really freaking badass.
Glorious, in fact.

It was a rather intimidating sight. Even on the silly little "map"-thing we use for battles.

I have also been really really mean and made my favourite subject of hatred in the Sims... Blogging about it makes me even meaner... But it's not really this person... Not really.... So it's fine....
I realise now, that if I had been talking to a psychologist or something, he or she would probably force me into a mental hospital.
But it's fine... It's not like I've really killed someone... Yet...
Only in the Sims. Over and over.... With an extreme joy. And pleasure...
It's only a matter of time, really.
Spoons are looking extremely attractive these days.
Not really helping myself, am I..
My first Sims murder victim.





Anyway, so I am a massive World of Warcraft player. I love that shit. I often go around and bash the Print Screen button if I see some pretty things here and there. The other day, my mate and I owned Scarlet Monestary (again. We're that cool.) and I realised that "Hey, this place is pretty fucking nice." So I started faffing around with that whilst he killed all the mobs around that area. The poor bastard probably thought I was lagging or something... Sorry, man. I'm sorry.

I apologise an awful lot in this post. The fact I feel the need to do that suggests I should pipe the fuck down and man the fuck up.
But there is a time and place for that, you mother fuckers.

The newest part of Azeroth, Pandaria, has got a lot of beautiful spots for picture-taking.
This is outside the Heart of Fears. Thought the colours were pretty neat. Neat like a train-wreck.

Not really.
I was kinda sarcastic, actually.

THE MORE YOU KNOW.

Ah. I love being obnoxious.
Definitely something I will continue being.
But if you are considering buying the Mists of Pandaria, I would definitely suggest doing so. It is amazing. Personally, I think this is the best expansion yet. Really do enjoy it, the lore is amazing. Just amazing. Story-lines and stuff... Fucking amazing.

And this simply just need to happen.

I will round this up now.

KTHXBYE!

MS Paint

I have a thing for eyes. I love eyes. They are beautiful.
So many weird shapes and colours!
Especially animal eyes are strange and awesome. I've painted a lizard eye before and a leopard one, but this time I decided to paint a tiger's eye (Hah. Big difference from the leopard! Sarcasm is so cool.)
It was fun, but the stripes and the fur is a nightmare. Especially where it is out of focus. That is the hardest fecking shit I have ever painted. It turned out shit too. But shit happens.
I can't paint fur for shit. Nor draw. Actually, hair in general, I'm useless at. Don't have the patience to stick with it. I applaud people who do.
Some serious will-power right there.
Right, here's the progress pictures I took for shits and giggles!
Just started adding colour. Also realising the eye isn't round enough but don't care enough to correct it... Regretting it now though.
Taking shape!
Almost there (Actually I thought that looked better than the finished version... Might be because it got dark and the light sucked, though...)
Et lá! The light-thing at the side of the eye is too big... I try and fix it up more, but that's what I could be arsed doing today. The paint is too wet and paper too ruined for too much fiddeling as well, so... Wah.
Wish the sun had stayed up for a liiiiittle bit longer.... Or I started earlier. But oh well. Fur is a bitch. I absolutely hate the right side. Looks awful. But it was fun to finally paint again!
Love dat shit.
So that was today's showing off bullshit.

Also, this suddenly happened in the middle of it.....
Such an attractive person... >.>


KTHXBYE.

Game reminiscing

In World of Warcraft, a mate (http://ekornhulen.blogspot.co.uk/ - his blog) and me has made two priests that we level up at approximately the same time.
It first started as a thing my sister and I did, we made identical female undeads and were meant to wear exactly the same gear and stuff, he joined in after a few levels.
We had a lot of fun, when we were high enough level to enter, we entered Ragefire Chasm, a level 10 instance/dungeon. At level 8 we slowly crept closer and closer to the end boss, the three of us. It went surprisingly well, but we did have some trouble with the later mobs.
The three priests had three different speccs. My sister were Discipline, he is Shadow and myself, Holy. We kicked RFC's ass in the end.
It was good fun.

We did keep it going, so we've now become level 50. And during this, we went through to one of my favourite quests in the game. It's just amazing.
There's a dwarf, gnome and orc telling a story about how they defeated Deathwing. 

This guy punched him
This badboy searched for the coward in the clouds and threw him to Kalimdor.
Two gnomes on the rampage! One slightly further along in the quest than the other. They could take over the world if they tried seeing as they tend to be bad ass priests when they're not gnomes...
And this one... Saved Hot Babes... Please notice how hot and babe-y they all are. I love Blizzard sometimes. They certainly have a sense of humour about the Blood Elves! :D Love it.
Naturally picked the "Blood elf babe"
I missed the text-part when it was on the screen, but they shared a tender moment whilst flying :D Which is hilarious. Brilliant Blizzard! Fantastic.

So... Just, kinda, had to document everything that happened. Well, not everything. But a lot.
