Well Hello There!

It's been a while, hasn't it. Or,well, it's felt like a while.
My life after this week just got ten times easier--why, you ask? Because I'm done, yes done, with my "hard" classes (hard is fun, in my dictionary though), so I'm not jammed with homework and notes to take every night. And--oh yes, there's more!--we got our internet fixed! Running faster than ever, if I dare say so myself.

But there's not much to report on the world of personal Wizarding. I finished up my Frozen Fly Traps again Monday. Diamond Grand Total--119! And several messages from the Librarian dog (I really can't remember his name right now..) that my Treasure Deck was full. Guess I should use some of those Ice spells..

So I started a Silver Trumpet Vine garden in my Celestial Observatory. I didn't have a full stock of 32 to make a perfect garden, so I've got some Helephant Ears and a King Parsley scattered around. No Gong of the Oni though; that Death Oni seems to think I'm fond of Leprechauns.

If you live under a rock (or don't read the messages as you sign into the game..) Wintertusk has been announced. It's a continuation of Grizzleheim, and I'll just say it loud and proud right now--I love Grizzleheim! It probably is my favorite world. Reminds me so much home; the winters, the trees, the green life. Aaaah.. Anyway--there's supposedly some new spells and quest pets coming out. My wizards are all maxed out (besides my Death wizard..whom I really should get serious with Celestia), so I'll be running through for the fun of it, like I did for GH.

On the note of Pets, two "new" ones have been spotted and cracked; the Nightmare and the Egg Pet. I'm not very fond of either; the Egg Pet loos like an Easter pet and the Nightmare is Fire--icky for an Ice wizard focus.

That's all I've got to talk about. More to come as things keep happening!

(Blogger is being weird and not letting me post images, so pretend this is that neat-o image I always post!)

Immaaagination exercise!

Hocus Pocus, Time to Focus!

Sorry for the lack of posting lately!
Finals week and I've been bombed with other stuff to do (not to mention Pokemon Black and White came out this past week..).

I haven't had much time in-game either, except to check on my Frozen Fly Traps. Up to 61 Diamonds now! Woo! Oh, and a full treasure card book.. Looks like I need to start using more of those..

Along with my lack of time, my Internet has been absolutely haywire lately--and is beginning to act up again. I will talk to you all again (hopefully) later this week!

Thank Goodness It's Friday

(Goodness as in Glinda the Good... aaanyway!)

It's been a very fast, but very loooong week. So.. with that said, where should I start?

Perhaps with the release of the Celestian Housing on Live Realm. *clears throat*

WOOOOOT!

I am in love with the Observatory. I've got a lot of decorating done outside, but I've hardly touched the inside. I've got the entrance floor decorated; not quite sure what to do with the rest of the interior. I've got a long list of people I've got to farm this weekend and an even longer list of things to get Crafting--starting with those Celestian Planters. I've figured out I want 12--which is a lot of Acorns. Luckily, they're cheap!
I plan on making a video tour of my house when it's done, but to wet your appetites...

Those failed hatches had to be useful for something.

With the burden of crafting comes the burden of Reagent Harvesting. I mentioned last post that I was starting a Frozen Fly Trap garden to take care of my need for Diamonds; and it's been fairly successful. Starting with 3 Diamonds, I now have 34. However, I've been out of energy for about a week straight. Frozen Fly Traps are the neediest plant that I've taken care of so far with the Rank 5 Garden Imp pest and 3 needs a day. Let's just say that 70 Energy does not cut it. I may have to invest in a Baconator suit..

They don't bite--ahahaha, just kidding!

In the Pet business, I've been doing..well..nothing. However, I was told by a friend of mine that Blade of Life and other Trap/Blade giving Talents are now stackable with their trained spell counterparts. I can attest to this as Hexster now stacks with Hex--woo-woot! I've switched my Life wizard from my Spritely/Health Gift Turtle to my BoL/May Cast Lifeblade Turtle.

Hmm.. I think that's it. Finals are coming up fast and we're registering for next year's classes soon. I've got a mess on my plate. Not a bad mess, though. I'll figure it out..I always do. :P
