As i sit here while the servers are down I am really contimplating how much this game is ruling my life. Nothing has ever been this bad before, as far as addictiveness goes, and its not just me. Everyone who plays this game (which is virtually ALL of my friends, at home and at college) are completley obessesed. Its all anyone does anymore! I mean, its the topic of over half of my conversations. But as Matt put it last night...the game is better then real life in every way possible lol. We are also saying its the most revolutionary thing since Nintendo (as far as what its doing to everyone)
I mean, how ridiculous is it that my mom calls me 5 days before my brothers birthday freaking out, saying she needs to know what kind of computer Josh needs to play the game. She basically told me that none of his friends talk to him anymore, or want to do anything, becuause they are all playing WoW all the time.
This Weekend Josh's friend Tom stayed up for 72 hours straight playing the game. From Friday morning until Monday monring, basically all he did was play. Matt was up with him, and told him to get off, becuase Tom said he was shaking so hard he couldnt type, and that he was hearing his mom call his name, when she was actually asleep. After two days of no sleep you show the signs of being legally drunk. So not good. Kyle tells me all he thinks about at work is what he is giong to do when he goes home and plays. Ian lost his life completely, and sleeps during the day and plays at night. Corridor converstatoins consists of discussing such things as raids on towns to prices gotten at the auction house (which is worse then EBAY) on goods manufactured by the guilds blacksmiths, alchemists, armorcrafters, engineers and such.
On better note...i didnt really play that much this weekend myself, and went out 2 of the 3 nights. Going to a party and Ashley's apartment on friday (which i saw Porter and Sully at, which was surprising) where i learned how to finally play Euchre and that penis guns never run out of water... On sunday I first went out to dinner uptown at Phan Shin with Ashely, Tillie, Matt, Jeremy, and Randy. Then, I went over to AEpi for a huge party they had, which was alot of fun, and ended up in the Attic playing Beer pong. So, i was playing with this girl named Emily who seemed like your average hot, kind of stuck up Miami girl, wearing stilletos, dress pants, w/ a Louis Vuitton purse. I was sucking really bad but this girl was a pro, and then the most unexpected thing ever happened. I dont know how we got on the topic, but i think she brought up Zelda, which is my favorite game ever, and in my drunken stupor i freaked out after she told me that she played through Ocarina of Time 7 times. So obviously, i could not let this girl down haha. So it was down to 1 cup each and I sank my last shot, only to hear Emily say, "Well obviously, they lost just becuase they dont play Zelda" Good fucking Point lol.
Then i fucking sprinted from AEpi to Ashleys appt becuase it was so cold. I honostly couldnt feel anything after i got there. I actually walked into the entirly wrong appt complex...and was sitting here knocking on room 312, probably freaking out the people inside. I was really baffled though when on the phone asheley tells me that her door is open... I was like impossible, so i knocked harder. So then i had to brave the Tundra again to get to Ashely's real appt, not the fake one. So i stayed over there cuddling/talking to Ashely all night, which was awesome. I hope everything works out with her, because I really like her and dont want to see her get hurt again.
So it was definatly a awesome weekend overall, and its great to be back in Oxford.
