--Thursday, 3/24/11--

Newton came over to my place, so after doing a lot of other stuff we got around to getting LRO setup on his computer and we started off.  He decided to make a swordie while I decided I'd go and start playing Yuuki Nona, my wizard.  After getting our initial job change squared away, we headed off to Payon dungeon for our initial leveling...Also, notice that since I wasn't the party leader anymore I had to make a new party.  I called it "LuminousDusk" xD.

And then once that was finished I had fire bolt and fire wall, so it was off to clock tower!  Newton joined me, though he could only really get the small slow puffy enemies.

Some random people fooling around in Gaia xD.

And then it was time to rebirth and go whack some porings again, both as a high novice...

...and as a high mage.

Aaaaand then bath to clocks again.  This time I went even earlier, so it was even harder for me at the beginning, but it still managed to work out with enough care.

And then I had a high wizard!  hooray~

After that Newton wanted to look for a good sword so I went to somewhere in GH (i think?) and ME bombed Wanderers seeing if they would drop it, but...no luck.

I did run into Natalie though!  Unfortunately me and Newton had to do glowsticking and OHC and some other things, so we didn't stay long after that.

aaaand now, Spring break is over.  Somehow, contrary to what I told myself, I actually -don't- have enough time to do midrate during the quarter, it seems.  It's rather disturbing that I seem to not have as much time for these things anymore, but I can at least just keep trying my best to hold onto them.  I'm still up for highrate anyways, though something tells me that I can't really do it on a nightly basis or anything like that, because i'll have other activities and will be hanging out at okada and such.

Oyasumi~

Well, today was our final presentation, and thus there is little need for us to stay on this server anymore.  We may find another one (a mid-rate one) to play on together, but regardless, this is a bit of a farewell.  I'll miss you, my darling little high priest--you made me feel so cute, pretty, and helpful!  Though, I guess the good thing about a lower-rate server is that I'll get to actually be a cute lil Acolyte for a little bit longer.  It's just the priest outfit that I really am not quite that fond of.  Oh well.

Overall, I think I got more out of this than I expected to.  For one, I actually worked on the presentation and website more than I thought I would, given how much time I've put into the class for some other things.  But more importantly, I feel like I've expressed my inner "girl side" to three people who may not have ever had the chance to see it otherwise (well...okay, maybe not, as my girl side is pretty prevalent in RL too anyways).  And this blog in itself was already something rewarding for me--anything which gets me writing in a manner like this is probably something that is worthwhile.

I'd have to say that this is my first "real" MMORPG experience, and it was definitely a good one.  Though, I must say that the high-rate kind of ruined things for me, as we didn't really have to work that hard for anything.  And, not having to do any job quests or hunt for items, was also something that I really missed, since those actually gave you things that you had to DO (as opposed to just walking around and whacking random things).  I still maintain that the PvM in RO is really quite a bore when compared with D2, but being able to be a healer in a party made up for it in some way.  Plus I got to be cute ^^

Well then, it's time to say goodbye to Rune Midgard--for awhile, at least.  I'll keep this blog around, and link to it on my website (I try to have my website link to everything I've done on the intarwebs), but this is it for new posts.  If we do start up on another server, I'll probably start a separate blog for that...

Oyasumi~
