I went on a bit of a achievement run, and worked towards several things. I now proudly display the title 'Pyrrus Guardian of Cenarius' !!!! I finally get round to doing a run of AQ40 (With 39 other people, so it was unbelievably easy) loads and loads of mounts dropped, but I didn't win any :-(
Thats the problem with pugs, people are self-centred, rather than sharing the loots, they want it all for themselves :-(
So no mount for me, but I finally got the last idol I needed for my mace :D just a few more bits and I have all three of the 'Gathering Storms' set :D not too sure why I want these anymore, but I have had the quests since level 55 or so, so I may as well complete them and get the 'imba' quest rewards!
I also have been very slowly increasing my reputation with the Zaladar tribe (Zul'Grub troll things) and I am still longing for the elusive Tiger mount to add to my collection.
My opinion of being in a top guild so far:
To be honest, the raiding is lovely, so so so nice to just sit back and raid for once, without having to worry about everyone else, and without having to organise others.
I have had to make a small sacrifice though.
In order to get Azgrael in NS too, I had to change to being elemental as my main specc again.
I really didnt want him to be left out of this new adventure, as Frequency, Valrok, Duskashes and myself all were accepted. But understandably NS didn't have enough room for two new resto shamans, even though we are both pretty good! So I decided I would go back to my roots and become elemental again. I really enjoy it, the only thing is I have spent the last 6 months diligently working at learning to be a healer, and collecting some of the best gear available to me that I now will not be able to put to as good use as I had hoped :-(
So I have to now begin working on a proper elemental set, rather than what I have been able to grab so far. I also have to work on a great new rotation, I know the basics, but I haven't raided yet (Well I went to naxx, but that doesn't feel like a proper raid anymore after the delights of Ulduar) so I don't really know what works yet. I know what gear to head for, but luck has been against me in seeing it drop.
I will enjoy it, but I have to admit I am rather nervous about raiding now, as I cannot output the kind of dps others in NS can, as I am now barely hit-capped, no where near enough crit and am out of practise!
Lets hope they let me stay in NS on charm alone :P
If only Evertus was back, then I could get on ventrilo and join in with the fun there. For now I just have to still put up with raid chat, had a good natter with Halfjackel last night, but its not the same without hearing people :(
Well that was a random post of nothing! I'm sorry!! I am just stuck at uni and bored and as I cannot access most sites I thought I would sit and talk to you (Whoever you may be)
Gorbie still hasn't managed to get his title yet, no one is ever available when I am :-( or the wrong people are available! For example, I am VERY grateful to Bazaboong and Azgrael for trying to run me through UP normal, but it just wasn't going to work with azzys temperamental internet! Hopefully we wont raid too late tonight and I can find a meatshield to blast me through it fast :S
Next time I update hopefully things will look a bit brighter in my World of Warcraft, but for now I am going to post a poem which Azgrael reminded me about, one from many years ago which I did not know was a Romanian poet, it was just one from my big poetry book which I memorised as a child!
Drowsy Birds
Drowsy birds at even gliding,
Round about their nests alight,
In among the branches hiding...
Dear, good night!
Silence through the forest creeping,
Lullaby the river sighs;
In the garden flowers sleeping...
Shut your eyes!
Glides the swan among the rushes
To its rest where moonlight gleams,
And the angels' whisper hushes...
Peaceful dreams!
O'er the sky stars without number,
On the earth a silver light;
All is harmony and slumber...
Dear, good night!
(I can't remember who it was written by though :S)

I now found your blog and been reading most of it, god your writing makes my wow-abstinence grow bigger and bigger.. But no chance for me to play wow atm when im working these crazy and totally random hours... :( Well I'll probably start paying for my account when Gorbie gets back, and try to atleast play some hours a week, crazy how wow is unforgettable.. feel like a friggin heroinist needing my fix :p
