A job?

So today i start talking to Alex (owns a power leveling, gold farming and all that service), asked if he would be interested in buying my damn Warcraft account, for the 2nd time, except im asking for money this time as i have quit!

After a bit of talking i said: "so you got any job openings?"
Don't know what i was thinking but he said he only has 2-3 other people in Melbourne working for his company and he trusts me pretty well.
Apart from the low pay, i can probably work from home... so realistically i would be doing pretty much what i do now... play games for most of the day and do a bit of study when its needed.
The difference between spending over 5 hours on my computer a day, well hard to tell actually as the modem is never turned off, but instead of spending those hours just sitting around doing nothing, i could be earning a tiny bit of cash aswell.

Its kind of a win win situation no?

World of Warcraft Accounts!

This damn thing wont sell! I swear it is haunting me.
I tried to sell it on Ebay and it just wouldnt go up no matter what i tried!
God why wont anyone buy this thing, i have advertised everywhere and still nothing. It will never leave me alone =[

Anime!!

Anime is the one thing that keeps me sane.
So what have i been watching?? WELL IM GONNA TELL YOU!

-Blood+ : great anime if you like hack and chop blood scenes and story, 50 episodes long.

-Ergo Proxy : this is a more crazily futuristic anime. a world of humans and robots and a strange super being called Proxy which is considered as a god and has around 26 episodes.

-Death Note : great story and graphics...story loses interest around episode 17 has about 25 episodes.

-Utawarerumono : lol yes big name, it means "The song being sung". guy has amnesia and stays with the people who find him lying in a road with deep wounds. Will he ever recover the memories?

-Karas The Prophecy : This actually a 3 part movie, each part is roughly 30minutes each at 300mb+ each. The detail on this is huge, and will give your eyes orgasms. (WATCH AT NIGHT)

-Street Fighter Alpha 2 : Always classic, always best, ALWAYS STREET FIGHTER! What more can i say? Some of the best i have ever seen, hopefully they keep being made, this has 29 episodes that keep you entertained to keep wanting more!

Thats it for now, enjoy!

More then a addiction?

I was a long term World of Warcraft player. I began playing in January 2005 and quit March 2007. The game corrupted me and stole time away from my friends and family, leaving a deep scar that shall forever bleed.
On the other hand, quitting World of Warcraft is like quitting smoking because of the amount of addiction it brings upon a person. The game itself can be role played, people really believe they are the person inside the game, escaping from reality and here is such proof:

"News China is reporting that a young girl, nicknamed Snowly, died after playing World of Warcraft for several days straight during a national holiday. An online funeral service was held to commemorate her passing a week after her death."

Later in this 'funeral' it was turned into a bloodbath, when a large guild of players ambushed these people hosting the online funeral. Everyone was slaughtered and emoted without respect of the girls passing.

Other stories include a Asian boy who killed his parents with a joystick pretending he was a character in World of Warcraft.
And then another Asian boy who formed a blood clot in his leg, which moved to his brain after 42 hours of constant one position sitting, not eating, drinking or moving during Chinese New Year died while playing World of Warcraft, it was said he was 'farming' hard for his guild because they were going to be attempting Nefarian.

Its sad but true.

Easter time

So its easter time and being orthodox this means a lot to me.
I have been fasting for 6 weeks now, which means i am pretty much a vegan =[
Once the 6 weeks is up, which is in 2 days i can eat food again!!
The hole point of fasting is to cleanse the body for holy communion, which is the wine, and then a piece of bread. The wine represents Jesus' blood and the bread is his body.

The service at church begins at 5am and ends at 9am...its so early =[
Anyway easter is upon us, hope you all get chocolates and bunnies!
