A Medieval Fantasy.

According to wikipedia, MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer Role Playing Game) is a genre of role playing video games in which a very large number of players interact with one another within a virtual game world. For me, it's more than just that. MMORPG is a part of my everyday life.

MU is an MMORPG which was created back in December 2001 by a Korean gaming company- Webzen. It is set in the medieval age wherein the player needs to level up by fighting monsters or mobs. It first started as MU Global but on the year 2004, Filipino players were transferred to Mobius and thus gave birth to MU Philippines. My brother has always been addicted to this game since he was in high school... I remember how often I would tell him how stupid the game play was and that it would bring him nowhere. It was summer of 2010, April 27 to be exact, when I first started playing. Like any other games, the user must first register an account. I created my very first proper e-mail address and then I was introduced to the world of complicated passwords after having been warned of hackers. Here's a copy of the e-mail which mobius sent to me.

This e-mail is still sitting by a special folder in my email address up to now.

Beforehand, I've been telling my brother how much I wanted to have a summoner since it wears pink but well, he never granted my request since the creation of such class requires 500 epoints which is not worth it according to him because summoners can't keep up with the other classes during pvp events. Instead, I decided to create an elf as it is the only female character left. Naming her wasn't much of a problem though. I used "Ketchup" which is a nick name my friends called me for some reason. My set, weapon, and other accessories were given to me by my brother which he was able to buy at a relatively low price. The set was called "Drak Vine" or as I call it, "The Banana Set" gives high damage because of it's 20% chance of double damage to the opponent. Because of that, leveling has never been a problem and it seemed like to have become a part of my character that even when I already reached the master level, I still used the same set with a higher "plus" for greater defense.

Trying out the fireworks sold at Devias 2 ;)

Ketchup with guardian angel at the Devil Square.

There are various daily events wherein the player can enter into for greater xp. Of course, a ticket is required. You can either hunt or simply buy from the webstore(webstore=high inflation rate. Consistent.) The picture above is taken inside the devil square. There would be a swarm of mobs which you could kill in exchange for xp but because I said swarm, I meant really, really swarm... so, hp pots or red pots is an sop. Another is the blood castle. It yields lower xp but it's more exciting since you would get to compete with the other characters who entered. The quest is to obtain the weapon of the archangel which is located inside the castle gates. The gates must be destroyed first and then the statue which holds the weapon. When ketchup was still level 400 below, people would call her the "basag queen" because of hmmm, my ninja moves. Her build or distribution of stat points was agi-vit (for pvp) which is not really intended for this kind of event but still... I have my ways. Hahahahaha.

Vit type has never been a problem unless there are other pure agi elves around ;) AE's has always been the choice for Blood Castle because of the skill multi shot.

Eventually, I reached the level 380 wherein there's a quest that you have to obtain a certain object which is dropped after the corresponding mob is slain. The accomplishment is solely based on luck and I have been lucky ;)

Off to delvin. That's the DBK's eye, the horn, and the feather.

The Godmother

Hi, hello! Finally, my month-long vacation(almost) has ended... Not that I'm complaining. Christmas break was fab. The bulk of my vacation was spent at home reading more than a dozen of e-books and the rest was for attending family gatherings and "matey gatherings". Well, this post is specifically made as an outlet for my addiction to this book series entitled- "My Fair Godmother" but I'll go into the details later. Prior to the said book, I was able read the series Confessions of Georgia Nicolson. I've read it because I thought the cover looks cute (the cute-o-meter of a book's cover has always been my judgement of what might be a good read and most of the time, I just get fooled. Hahahaha.) Obviously, the book was all about the whimsical thoughts of the protagonist in diary style. I finished all the ten books in just one week not because I enjoyed it, but only because I wanted to know who she would end up with. Ironic, isn't it? Georgia was acquainted with three different guys and she wants them all. She's selfish, dumb, immature, and indeed very confusing and I would not really recommend the book for those who haven't read it yet.. but I would recommend very much Janette Rallison's My Fair Godmother!!!!!!!!!! I never really had a wild imagination which is something that the plot of the story requires the reader to have but I guess I picked it up along the way. It was very enjoyable and seemed like a very good option to be turned into a movie. 

The book has two parts- My Fair Godmother and My Unfair Godmother. For the first installment:

Chrysanthemum Everstar is a Fair Godmother(a fair godmother is someone who is an incompetent fairy student). She gets to be assigned to Savannah who by-then was dumped by her boyfriend for her older sister. When Chrissy appeared on her bedroom saying that she can grant three wishes, Savannah wished she could find a true prince that she could take to the prom. Eventually, Chrissy actually did gave her not only a true prince but a REAL prince. Savannah first was sent to the Middle Ages as Cinderella, then as Snow White. Finally, when Savannah called on to her fair godmother saying she was misinterpreted, Chrissy sends Tristan, a boy in Savannah's class, back instead to turn him into her prom-worthy prince. When she went after Tristan to the Middle Ages to save him, she learned that the only way they can escape is by making Tristan become a prince which is achieved by defeating a troll, a dragon, and a mysterious and hot Black Knight. ;-) 

Here's a book trailer:

On that perfect day! :">

Legally Blonde! Okay. Too overrated. Hahaha.

YAY! Hi people! (I know the audience of my blog is just going to be Rhean, Gelai, Janna, and Ria only since they're the only people who are aware that I have this uhh, blogsite or whatever you call this. Yet, there is no assurance that would be able to read this since it seems like everybody is preoccupied with their only-god-knows activities)

So yeah. I wrote/typed this because I'm still in the state of euphoria after having finished our Capital Markets nightmare wherein we received positive feedback. In fact, I think I almost died*of happiness* when one of the panelist said that if he were the owner of OGBI(our chosen company), he wouldn't hesitate to follow our recommendation. I guess our efforts paid off. ;) Now, I wouldn't have to worry about the paper and I would finally get the chance to watch Titanic... and speaking of Titanic and before you jump into conclusions about how loser am I, I would like to emphasize the fact that TITANIC was released in 1997 and that makes me a five year old kid during that time! Hello???? The genre of that film isn't appropriate for 5 y.o. kids! Therefore, I definitely have a reason for my "loserness". Hahaha. With the advent of various technological advancements, I can finally watch the film!*Thank you utorrent! Lmao* Also, I was able to read a news that next year, they're going to release a 3D version of Titanic. I would definitely make it a point not to miss that. ;))

Oh, and btw. I am dreading this time of the year. I'm supposed to start with my project for JFINEX which is CODES and Tatay is already asking for my project proposal. I don't even have a program flow yet and my idea regarding the project is very vague. Tatay told me to seek help from the former officer of the org who held this project but I am hesitant because last semester, I tried to contact her in Facebook and even texted her but I haven't received any response. I don't really want to disturb her since she works in a bank and we know for a fact that being in that industry is not easy and it usually takes much of the time of the employees. So... Nothing. Just wish me luck. I wish I'd get over this dilemma asap so that I can focus on my acads and hopefully, sort my life in order to have a clearer vision on what I want to do after school. :o)

And uh. Datzall :) Gotta read lottttssssssss of e-books. Adios for now!

TINKERBELL AND THE LOST TREASURE

"The greatest treasures are not gold, nor jewels, nor works of art. They cannot be held in your hands. They're held within your heart. For worldly things will fade away as seasons come and go. But the treasure of true friendship will never lose its glow." 

Movie marathon day! Gotta love tinkerbell. Maybe I should start buying dusts of every color. PIXIEEEEEEEEEES!!!!!!!!!!

Approximately five hours to go before our FinMan 7 (Capital Markets) defense. I'll be needing the ultimate chill song. Keeping my fingers and eyes crossed. +.+

HAPPY PILLS =)

Hurray! My first blog and I'm unsure how this works. Well anyway, ga awat-awat rako ni Annoying Orange.

Ooookay. I've kept mum on certain issues since I know it's not going to be worth the entire headache I'm sure I'll go through. Not to mention that I'm too preoccupied with acads which well, is now done. So now, the heckwithyoupeople. It's finally getting on my nerves. Hahaha.

In every conflict, there are always two sides of the story. Each has it's own to believe in but please... at the very least, make an effort to find what's on the other side. I can't define what a true friend is but I sure know that they are the ones who will pull you up and guess what? All along, that's what I've been trying to do. I've made mistakes, I wasn't perfect. But I tried anyway. It's just a shame that after all, all we get, or scratch that since I can't speak for the others, all I get is this? Being called fake? LMAO.

I posted this not to stir trouble. It's just that I needed an outlet of what I feel and I was also hoping, you'd get my message.

PS. I used to care but now? I really have no idea ‘coz I have my happy pills for that. J
