so i started back at college after two weeks off. eeek! my assignments are done except for one two week diary, which i am writing for these next two weeks. phew. thats a massive weight gone. now its just practical stuff. one of my lecturers has written a list of the things i need to get signed off for now. so it doesn't seem so daunting, but theres still a lot of stuff i need to do in the next two months. i know i have a client today so hopefully there'll be something else i can get signed off. i worked loads over the easter holidays that last week i did 10 days without a day off. doesn't bother me though cause i did get lazy mornings still. so i am hoping for a yummy big paycheque in two weeks. the bank never got back to me about a loan so i'll have to call them again. warcrafty ramblings i have rediscovered my undead priest. i think horde side i have tried every race/class combination that even vaguely appeals to me and i can't get along with any of them. i 'want' to have a mage. but deep down the thought of a toon with no heals is scary. so i am back to my dead girl priest. although i have discovered that elemental shamans are totally op i took my 32 taruen shaman (recently respec'ed) to stv and was taking out the level 36 orges easy. but yes. i am back to my priest i think i am just going to stick with her although one my shaman hits 40 and i can respec back to enh and get two daggers maybe i'll have a change of heart. at this popint though. i am seriously considering just deleting all my toons under level 10. and freeing up space on the server again for 'new' toons. oh and i transfered my hunter to runetotem. i don't want to play that toon, but i don't really want to delete her either, so that seemed the best option. she had 19g on her and i considered taking that, but i have alts on that server too, so i figured at least they have a bit of funding.

warcraft: my respec to resto was short lived. you seriously can achieve nothing while resto. i was a squishy as hell and frankly i did not heal any more efficiently. i think a serious amount of practice is on order so i shall be leveling my baby shaman as elemental so i can get used to playing a shaman as a caster. then i'll go ahead with a respec. i enjoy healing, and i want to be resto. it's just not practical at the moment. i have begun the long and painful gold grind for my epic flying skill. gah. college: on the verge of quitting. basically i am just waiting for my manager at work to say that i have have full time hours. i feel really crap about this and it's the source of my constant headaches. college is a waste of my time because i will never use the qualification. oh i enjoy learing how to be a hairdresser but when it comes down to it. i don't actually like the idea of cutting or colouring a total strangers hair. but i would have liked to see it through anyways out of principal. but i really really can't afford to. i have taken to not answering the phone because i know it's someone who wants money off me. i had wanted to go back to portsmouth over easter but there's no way that's going to happen. besides if i am not at college i don't have to wait till half term/end of term to go anywhere which is a bonus i guess. i know that leaving college is the right thing to do. hell i can always do that course again later on in my life if i must. but i feel like a quitter. like i messed up real bad with this one. diet: meh. i had pie and chocolate yesterday. but it was sunday and you gotta be naughty sometimes. other than that, it's ok. i'm still not exercising enough (... not at all...) whoch really would help things along. but the main point is really, i am not gaining weight and i am losing.. veeeery slowly. better than nothing. web design: later on this week i need to have a good look at my websites and figure out all the places where the code isn't valid. if i'm going to try to be a serious web designer i really need to work out the validation thing. /cry Tags: college, diet and exercise, graphics & code, world of warcraft

i have to stop eating chocolate. i 'had' lost half a stone. i probably put that back on now. darn it. though on the plus side i am ill again and therefore have no appetite. i gotta take advantage of this :) the design for nocturnal.nu was finished a while back. i have rewritten a fair bit of the content, and have a few things to add to my portfolio and i plan to add a Closed Portfolio of things i have made just for me but are still display worthy. i haven't done a warcraft ramble for a while, but some fab things have happened recently so here goes. my shammy hit 63. yes i know. slooow! but i have been messing about in lowbie areas and helping guildies and farming recently so that's my excuse. i joined a pug for scholomance 2 days ago, and excluding guild runs, it was the single best run i have ever been on. at first there was me (shammy), two locks, a dps warrior and a hunter. i was healing, and apparently did a great job of it. we wiped a lot (6-7 times) because of bad pulls and accidental aggro, but we learned from it, and i only had to run back 2 times from the graveyard between the two locks soulstoning me and my reincarnation. we were all really chatty and good natured about everything which is so refreshing. the hunter was a bit useless and he left pretty early anyway, he was replaced with a resto shaman. which meant i got to shine as dps, which i did by topping the meters by a fair bit :) by then most of us were at 0 durability so we hearthed, repaired and resummoned in shifts (never been in a group that was willing to do that!). then, and this is the bit that really tickled me. i started to get whispers from the group saying i healed better then the resto shaman. that really made my day. i was worried about my healing just cause i don't get a chance to heal in groups that are the same level as me very much. i even set up my action bar so i could use keybindings for my heals, normally i am a bit rubbish with using the keyboard, but using keys to cast and the mouse to target worked out really well. it was great, we finished the run, i made new friends, i learned a lot about threat management, and learned that i love healing, oh and topped the dps despite the 10 minute bit where i only had one dagger and my armor was dead :) it was one of those rare moments where the game was really properly fun to play. ok enough geeky waffling, time to find lunch, and sort my hair out, and think seriously about my website.

well it's been what? a month since i posted last. not an awful lot has happened but you wouldn't expect that from me anyway. xmas came and went without incident. though i did go out with the girls from college on our last day of term. that was a laugh! well all met up at college for a buffet in the salon (there was no lesson or clients) most of us got makeovers (i was left feeling very girly which is quite alien to me haha), then we all taxied into town. i live so far away from everywhere that i had to leave at about 10pm cause mum was picking me up. all the buses that go from swansea to where i live actually stop at about 6:30. how damed useless is that? i have renewed enthusiasm for hairdressing and am catching up with my 'skills' so thats all good. thank god. I was so close to quitting and i would have hated myself for that, now i am thinking i might invest in a better pair of scissors :D i have a load of time booked off in feb and march so i am hoping to travel down to portsmouth, but at the moment i'm not sure i have anywhere to stay. i will be really gutted if i don't go. it'll have been nearly two and a half years since i moved. i really have an itch to go back, though i am expecting a culture shock again. i'm downloading the score from the transformers movie as i write this /geek i have a little collection of transformers toys growing on my desk here i'll be adding the voyager class Blackout and Scorponok to that collection soon, and i really need to hunt down a G1 style Starscream. eventually i'll be over this silliness. but no time soon. i have been eating healthily for a week and a half now. i decided not to do an all out diet because i fail at those. i have lost 5lb. i would love to take credit for all of that but i've been ill the last couple of days and off my food haha. there is the 'flu' going around here. and i got it i think. normally i really really hate when people call a cold or even a bad cold the flu cause its totally different. but i had the proper flu symptoms, i got in from college curled up on the sofa with my quilt and couldn't move. every muscle and joint hurt so much. but then two days later and it's gone! i still cough a lot but no headache or anything. at least i was properly and genuinely ill :) i took the day off college and i didn't have to fake of exaggerate anything. not that i ever do that. in warcraft news. i am really angry at my paladin. i tried all morning to complete the last 'big' quest in the draenei starting area (ending their world) and i still can't do it on my own. all the other characters i have done this quest with have never needed the recommended 2 players to finish it, so what the hell is wrong here? maybe i just play badly? so in the end i joined a run through the DM. and was assigned the job of healer. which also made me angry but i did ok. the priest only had to back me up a few times..... yes really. the priest who can heal a lot more than me faster than me wouldn't so it, cause she was shadow spec. i hate when people try to pull that bullshit. so i didn't heal her at all. unless i thought i might need her to rez me because out tank wasn't tanking all that well (not really badly, i have no complaints, in fact it might have just been that people weren't watching their aggro). i'm thinking of resetting my talents and going 100% prot. i so want to tank.. so much. also, i love my icon. i didn't make it (credit is on the icons page) but it is the sex anyway.
