Thinking of maybe starting entries again. So here is a long overdue entry.
Hmmm... Where to begin?
First things first. Solstice broke. I was sad. :( Not getting into Berrima drama. Stellar gave Ultimax ownership of the new Solstice, and I was a sack there for a while as well, but left when Epoc created a new shell called Tactics and was a sack there instead. Simply because I didn't like how things were going. Everyone was pretty devistated from the whole breaking thing, but mainly nobody wanted to stay in the new Solstice because Sailorkitty became a sack. I didnt' really have a problem with her personally, but the majority of the shell hated her, and drama broke out. Thats when Epoc made Tactics and I moved there.
I didn't like Tactics from the beginning. I loved a lot of the people there, and still do, but the rules and "levels of sacks" and points systems, and the fact that we pearled so many noobs without applications, I did NOT like. But whatever, the majority of my friends were now here. Then Epoc starts to go MIA. He goes MIA for the next...3 months i believe. So I was stuck running a ls i didn't even like the rules for in the first place, mostly by myself. Mima was just returning to the game, so as a sack he couldn't really help contribute that much at the time, and no other sacks really helped lead for the majority of the time, but they did help with the god awful points taking. So I got overwhelmed, especially with us failing things pretty awfully. So I decided to quit Tactics and apply to EC where Ultimax, Teaira, Xavius and some other good friends were now at. I got accepted sometime in September '07 I believe.
God, I love EC. I'm at the point where I love it even more than I loved Solstice, I think, and I haven't been here nearly as long as I was there. (2 and half years with solstice, if i recall) Not only are the majority of the people awesome (except for you fags that started calling me mean -dra names!!! HATE YOU) but I like the system of obtaining items much, much better. Simply because in Solstice I had a tendency to spend my points in really awful ways after having bad luck on it for so long (200 points Genbu Kabuto sup!!)
So, thats enough of the LS related stuff. Now on to job related and other.
First of all, I obviously finished RDM since my last FFXI related entry. I finished it when I was in Tactics, I believe. My RDM is coming along very, very well. In fact, I'm now 4/5 Morrigan-missing just the legs. And I am very, very close to completing those as well.. I am just missing the Lv. 25 legs which drops from Zhay's Chariot boss. (Which I also would have had if it weren't for Harry Potter aka Tubbers stealing them from me, but we had make up sex so its all good.) But yeah, been missing only that piece for the last couple of months, and it'll drop soon enough, hopefully. And, in other Salvage news, I have also completed Usu feet and legs, and Ares feet inc (which i didn't want; only missing the 15 piece)
And the second job I've gotten to 75 since my last FFXI update, PLD! I absolutley love this job! I prefer it over NIN for many situations now. I also got this bad boy pretty damn well equipped already too. Most important upgrade being obtaining a Shadow Ring back in late december as my second item aquired in EC I believe, too! First being the very sexy Crimson legs, which Teaira passed for me <3 :D I've also gotten a couple of af2 for it, baha's mask, and....most recently, finally getting homam hands after all of these years! So that puts me at 5/5 Homam. Look at my pretty Pld!
Now, time to look through my shit load of SSs and see which ones are good enough to post on here...

Full NIN AF2 looks awful.
Let there be light.

Real Life.
I moved to Illinois last fall, just a few weeks before joining EC. I do not like it here. My job is so awful. I work with a bunch of Mexicans (some of which got deported, and one of them recently just got REHIRED under a different name.), the work sucks and the pay sucks. Yep.. There are some nice people there, but I haven't really gotten to know any of them well enough to hang out with any outside of work.
At school I also really haven't made any friends either. I guess I'm just too damn quiet and shy. Although I did become friends with one girl, and got her number. I asked her out to dinner once but she said she was busy with something, and I haven't asked her out again since. I'm pretty sure she is interested in me too, but whatever. I mainly haven't persued this because...
I'm moving back to Minnesota at the end of the summer! I got accepted into into St. Cloud State (not like thats hard but yeah, lol) and I'll be going there. I will be living in one of the dorms there on campus. I am really excited too because this will be a nice change from living with my parents again, to being out on my own again. The best part about it is that 3 of my best friends go to school there, as well as some other friends. So I should have a lot of fun. But, as you may figure out, this will lead to me playing FFXI very rarely if not at all, most likely. So go get all the Jared you'll ever need this summer while I still have no friends and no life.
