Holy paladin silhouettes
So I came across this great post the other day that showed an awesome spot to take some silhouette screenshots. I decided to give it a go today on my pally. It was a lot of fun! And I think my pally looks awesome 🙂 Because she’s holy, most of her spells are beautifully golden.…

Kun-lai visits
Today I came across an amazing guide to In-Game Memorials in WoW on WoWHead. As the title suggests, it goes through all of the memorial sites in game that are dedicated to others. Some of them I have seen before (I still remember the quest line for Brad Bridenbecker). One of them I came across that…

All done
Well, my raid team has officially fallen apart. I’m pretty sad about it. We had some really great players – I thought we might have actually had a chance at getting somewhere with SoO. But one by one people left the team or stopped showing up or other such things…. at last Sunday’s raid we…

Not-so-subtle names
So I was making an orc rogue on my WoW starter account for my main so she could get the Turkey Lurkey achievement. Hit randomise on the name generator and got this – Buyagamesh. Buy A Game?? Way to be subtle, Blizz!

Exploring Blood Watch
Blood Watch Flying around getting all the candy buckets for Hallow’s End and came across this little island. I have never seen this place before. It looks awesome! Everything is all red and stuff.

Isle of Thunder
Isle of Thunder I loved all the thunder and lightning on the Isle of Thunder.

Darkmoon Faire concerts
Darkmoon Fair concert For the longest time I couldn’t figure out why there was a stage at the Darkmoon Fair. There would be people yelling out to come see some big spectacle that was going to happen, but then there wasn’t anything and I’d get bored and leave. One day a few months back I…

Hidden in the Vale
Random finds Z posted about finding a place in the Valley that she hadn’t seen before, which reminded me of this place I found a little while ago. I think it’s probably where Alani is summoned for the mount? Not sure. Anyway I remember being so surprised seeing it – it was tucked away behind…

Leading the Flames
5.4 has been out for 2 weeks now. I’m still enjoying it a lot. The Timeless Isle is a lot of fun – it’s like a giant Easter Egg hunt! And of course there’s the new raid zone, Siege of Orgrimmar, which hasn’t been out long enough for me to hate yet. 🙂 What I’m…

What the WoW fox say?
During the great Friday the 13th hot"fix" death of all instances, my boyfriend got a little bored. He placed the following in game support ticket: I have a question. What the fox say? This was the response from a WoW GM: Greetings, I am Game Master Flangarinoth and I’ll be taking care of your ticket.…

Hero in a half shell
Turtle power! Playing around on my hunter, who has a turtle for a battle pet, pet and mount. 🙂

My first legendary
My very first legendary [spoilers for those who haven’t done this yet and want a surprise – don’t look at the pics!] Last night I got my very first legendary item in World of Warcraft. It’s been a long time coming – 6 months for my pally here. I’m really stoked. When I knew this…

Cinderleaf
Cinderleaf I’m a bit late with #DruidWeek. Stupid back being crap and all. So Druids… I really want to like them, I do – I just don’t. I’ve tried heaps of times. I had one up to level 40 I think it was. Her name was Lunarella. But I just got so frustrated. I felt…

Flames of the Phoenix
Flames of the Phoenix is born! I mentioned in a previous entry that a few things had happened in my guild. Well they did. The short version is that I left the guild I was an officer of and moved all of my characters to a new server. It was not a great departure, but…

Haunted Sunsong Ranch
My ranch is haunted!! My shammy got exalted with the tillers yesterday and best friends with Tina Mudclaw – so now Sunsong Ranch is mine! (I love being bound there – just sitting in the door frame looking at that beautiful view is so peaceful!) However, I noticed a strange thing yesterday morning – there…

Cindecay
Cindecay So the lovely Z posted about Alt Appreciation week that she saw on World of Lae’s blog. I thought it was an awesome idea so here I am! Week 1 is Death Knight. My DK actually has a bit of history. I made her back in Cata, before I ever started raiding. At the time…

I quit raiding
This weekend I quit my core raiding team. I’m pretty devastated. I really love raiding and I enjoy the team I raid with. However, raiding times were Saturday and Sunday, 11am – 4pm, essentially wiping out the entire weekend. It’s been a struggle. I work a Monday-Friday 9-5 job, and I work damn hard. So…

Mountain O Mounts
Finally got my Mountain O Mounts achieve. Sure I had to buy a mount to get it, but look how awesome that mount matches my mage’s transmog! #bitaddicted

Girls talking about WoW
I have a bit of a gripe. Ok, a whinge, a whine, whatever. For those who follow me and may not know, I’m a girl. A girl who plays World of Warcraft. A LOT. I raid in two teams, one of which I am raid leader of (the one I post about on here most).…

Lei Shen
WE DID IT!! Tonight my little team got Lei Shen down and got the “Ahead of the Curve” achievement. It’s all I wanted for them – for us to all have that achievement that says we worked hard this tier and saw all of the fights. It’s not heroics or anything, but I don’t care.…
-
Iron Qon
Soo…. we downed another 2 bosses tonight. Iron Qon took us a little bit, but only because our dps was a little low so if we lost one person we’d hit beserk. When we did get the kill we had already hit berserk and our DK tank was last man standing with like 0.5% health when he…

Dark Animus + Primordius
And another two bite the dust. I missed updating about Primordius last week as I was heading off for holidays, but we got him down after only 2 attempts. And then tonight, Dark Animus went down. It was past raid ending time but we wanted to give it one last shot. And we got him!…

Birthday Yak
I got a yak, hey hey hey hey! So my boyfriend wanted to make sure that I had something for my birthday, despite buying me safari tickets (!!!!!!!) So he bought me the most expensive mount in WoW – the Grand Expedition Yak, This thing is gloriously obscene. I LOVE IT! It has a little…

Birthday treats for me
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!!! I’m turning old next week (the big 30) so to make myself feel better I spent far too much money on some new toys for myself. So excited! I want to take them home and play with them now, not have to sit through another 5 hours of work and having…

Durumu
Durumu is down! So proud of these guys. It was the third week we’d been able to have a crack at getting this guy down. Each attempt we got a little closer, and the mistakes were fewer. We had one kill that got down to 6%, and another to 3% which were just devastating. But we persevered and…

My UI
My UI Zeirah did a great post recently about her UI (User Interface) so thought I’d share mine. My UI is pretty much the same for all of my toons no matter what spec – only difference being that my healers have Grid in the middle. I don’t think many people use it, but I really…

Snowfury
Snowfury dinged 40 tonight, and I just had to share her latest mount. It’s a horse on FIRE with freaking HORNS sticking out of it!!! (my bf is calling it a flaming multicorn 😀 ) Like seriously, if you saw that coming for you you’d pee your pants. Love it 🙂

And Ji-Kun down, too! Quite a successful weekend. Love that we all had feathers for the photo 🙂 Except Shogun who’s napping from all the hard work hehe

Here’s an announcement
I have made a decision. It’s pretty important to me, which is why I’m announcing it on here. So given most of the people who follow me don’t know me, you should know some things about me. Writing was always my first love. I would write all the time – I started my first journal…

We killed the heroic chicken!!!
We killed the heroic chicken!!! It was pretty amazing. We spent probably 3- 31/2 hours getting him down (just over an hour Saturday and 2 and a bit today). The shot up the top shows what condition we were in when he died. Despite my almost 0 health in that shot and the incoming cheep…

Snowfury II
I’ve been slowly levelling my lock in my spare timee. It’s funny, I’m still not overly fond of playing a lock, but I have a bit of a soft spot for her. I think because I think she’s pretty. I’ve always liked the way the female blood elves look. So very much the opposite of…

Tortos
So these are my guys! And this was our Tortos kill from last week. We had actually gotten him down the week before but I hadn’t thought to take a screen shot until last week. So proud of my team 🙂 And so much fun! *edit: I should say – that’s me in the middle…

Snowfury
Some silly things have been happening in my guild and raid team at the moment that have been making me pretty angry. So to run away from those problems, and because I was inspired by Zeirah’s wonderful WoW posts, I decided to make myself a Horde character. To be honest, Horde characters don’t appeal to…

I has a bored
Today has not been the most productive of days. Although I did come up with a nice piece of alliteration “I find your fascination with fluids funny!” There’s something almost dirty about the word “fluids”. Or maybe it’s just me. It makes me think of bodily functions (some fun, others less fun). Apparently my disdain…

New Girl in Town
I posted that title and now I have the song from Hairspray stuck in my head. The point is, hello blogging world, I have arrived! I’m not very good at keeping these things up to date, but I will try. I even have a proper entry all lined up! It’ll knock yer socks off! (if…
