The Happy Thread

[Snowy]

Holy crap! It's August already?! It's my birthday on the 18th and I can't wait to just spend the day with my two favourite boys, my boyfriend/fiancé and my best friend/brother.

(Some people on here are apparently confused about whether or not I'm engaged since I use both words, I am engaged so technically he's my fiancé but I prefer to still use boyfriend. x'D Aaaand my best friend is not my actual brother, but my mother kinda 'took him in' so he's kinda like an adopted little brother to me now. [He prefers to be the 'big' brother but I'm older. xD])
I don't think he knows he's my best friend cause I never say it to his face but he issss ♥

[Krysteena]

Heh. Same day as my mum. I think :/ oh Gosh I'm a terrible daughter. Remind me to remember that, so I can say happy birthday on the Birthday Thread. Actually...thanks. I need to get my mother a present. But that means going outside...in the sun. Eww. Sunshine *breaks into song* lollipops and rainbows!

My happy thingy? Phoenix. I'm so close now! Next Sunday I shall go soaring across the sky on my Emerald Phoenix (or violet) and I've got two wonderful petopians, a pretty cool hunter who apparently likes dancing and a brilliant DK to thank! Gosh I'm so excited :3 *hugs* just wish it wasn't such a hard choice between Violet and Emerald. Violet, RPwise is the one my hunter receives. Hui goes to her after in Dread wastes and the two stick together. But...Emerald seems the one more likely to go to someone without seeing battle skills and suits my Klaxxi transmog perfectly. I've got a week to decide. Should be able to make a choice by then...

Eleven months and one to go then Xenasblade my girlfriend and I will be together in real life and game for a whole year as a couple hard to believe I finally found a girl who makes me feel the way she does. Everyday I wake up knowing she is my girlfriend and I her boyfriend also what was so sweet bout today is as I was doing my job, courtesy clerk at Safeway, a car with Oregon plates came into the lot I just looked at it and knew it was a sign things are ok with us and it is almost time. I don't go looking for those plates cause I know most will be from Arizona or Nevada but when one does show up it is not just a coincidence of us being a couple.

When we first met many years ago and started down this path we are on I knew then she was going to be my lifemate and soulmate now a year is upon us and through it all being in a long distance relationship we have remained strong.

My cat had been sleeping on my lap for almost an hour. She never did it before, she's more the daddy's girl-type. Her behavior improved so much since we moved into our new house and she can go outside. I'm so proud!

[Iowawolf]

Four eight hour days at work now got some time off to play WOW and spend with my girlfriend who yesterday while I was at work told our GM she was looking forward to coming here in December and seeing me as I am her. Hard to believe we are so close to our first year as a real couple that met in game when many online relationships fail we are making it work. True before we had our problems like many others but the best thing is when we do have one we talk about it and do not stop till it is fixed. This is the first relationship I have ever been in where this has happened others when we got mad we didn't talk much at all till it blew up and was no choice but with this one it doesn't blow up. I know we got a long way to go still but I did promise her that this is going to work.

*Quietly sides with the Shattered Hand and fangirls for the rest of time*

I'm really excited for the Lords of War mini series. >.> The first one alone made me completely fall in love with the Shattered Hand. And the cinematic made me fall in love with the Iron Horde. I, uh. I might have some issues this expansion.

[Krysteena]

Ahh. I'm at peace. Today, I finally completed both the rep grind with the tillers and dominance offensive. It was a long grind of blood, sweat, tears and a load of mud and vegetables but I did it. Finally, after witnessing the Horde tear Pandaria apart, corrupt the Paragons (much to the dismay of my rp'ing side of Krysteena) and ruin what little peace I had, it's over. Finally, after farming hundreds of crops, slaying a dozen hozen, fetching soup and biting the viscous weeds that dare show their ugly faces within my crops, it's over. Vol'Jin will make a full recovery. Having to pretend I'm all for Garrosh is no more. I've done as Vol'Jin asked of me, as a friend. I follow his rule now, as a friend.

Hard work pays off. Yoon was accepted into the tiller community. You was accepted into their council. After watching the bumbling fool (as much as I adore his character) pace in an agitated manner and saying all sorts of silly things, he knew where he was needed. And thus, the farm that has been in his families hands for centuries falls to me. A home away from home. While my hunter may not be in Klaxxi'Vess, as the mantid require time alone to think over what happened and there's a chance she'll be killed on site, she knows she's got a home by Halfhill Market. She's got a farm to call her own, she's been reunited with a loyal Wyvern companion and a lovely goat to speak of as companions and of course Felrius is by her side.

Ahh. Yup. I'm at peace. Finally my hunter doesn't have to deal with the war in Pandaria. Finally the rep grinds are over. Finally...she can sit back and do more casual things. Farming, fishing and whatnot. Of course, work on the farm is never complete. Even now, there's a work order from the Klaxxi. For...mogu pumpkins? Well then...

Edit--it seems MC will be a lvl 99 thing, judging by what's being said on Twitter and whatnot. This means I won't have to quickly level Krys up to 100 or mumble to myself about missing out on a cool new Corehound mount

OMFG AWE YISS

I went to Silithis to search for Quiraji Guardlings cause I still needed one and I didn't want to be stupid and put it off until realizing Summer's ended already and curse that I can't get 'em till next year (I'm rambling I know but I'm excited lol xD) and THE FIRST ONE I ENCOUNTER IS A RARE ONE AND I GOT THAT BUG LADY ON THE FIRST SHOT WITH THE CAGE AND TOTALLY OWNED THE OTHER PETS IN THE FIGHT EVEN THOUGH I WAS AT HALF HEALTH FROM CHECKING THE RARITY OF OTHER CREATURES (takes away 10% of all your active pets health when you flee a battle) AND FORGETTING TO HEAL AND MY TEAM WAS ALL IN THEIR 18-20 RANGE SO I WAS EQUAL LEVEL TO THEM AND I STILL DID IT FLAWLESSLY YEESSS

[Makoes]

YES!!! Finished my last KoH event image, feeling really great!
Just have one more traditional piece to do and I'll be done the event pictures, then I can get started on the next one XD

[Krysteena]

I'm more than content now ^_^ I'm ecstatic. Is that the correct word? I think it is. If it's not, I'm really really really happy! Yesterday was great. I would've posted yesterday but I was waaay to tired at the end of it.

So. This guild that I've been eyeing up (here I sound creepy) have been advertising for new members. Raid and social ones. My guild was made by a family member. They don't play anymore. The most players in the guild that would ever be online was 3. Now this Guild had been asking for a few weeks. I didn't want to apply, simply because I was shy. Yesterday, I saw the message again. Hyping myself up, I applied. And was accepted! I was sooo happy about it, and made a new transmog to go with the tabard while I grind rep up to exalted. They've got the scorpion and the dark Phoenix, which is always a plus. I quite like the dark Phoenix <3

Part 2 and the larger reason it my happiness. Yesterday night, after 3 hours of wiping in Scholomance, I got the last CM I needed for my Phoenix mount i still haven't decided if I'd like the Violet or the Emerald, but I will have to eventually. We'll be getting our Phoenix's today (me, Mozag and Fin) if we can get Fin's last CM done ^_^

so other women are addicted to buying shoes...I am now addicted to buying figmas 3 from amazon on their way and i pre ordered Devil Homura as a Bday gift (she comes out in feb) for myself....its still better than being addicted to drugs right? right!

[cowmuflage]

Well now figmas can be costly More so when they make the main characters of a show you like. I really want those Girls und Panzer ones! and the Kill La Kill ones and that Ghost in the shell one and....... It never ends! XD

Yeah kinda addicted to collecting all the madoka figmas and sailor moon figurats...i've also bought some old 1990's sailor moon dolls off ebay! I'm justifying it by saying I have the shelf space in the study now so gotta fill em with something

(the shelf with nothing on it belongs to the fiance lol! Mine are filling fast...)

[cowmuflage]

I find it pretty neat is that we both have the same amount of Madoka figmas but we only have one that's the same!

My desk is a bit messy but no where as messy as my bookcase XD


It took me a while to find that School girl Madoka as she was like part of a collectors edition for the game.
But when I got it I got everything that came in the CE besides the game it's self, when the thing I bid on said it was the figure only

Came in a nice box


but it did have this kinda scary case O.o


Anyway enough photos! I need to make a thread so everyone on here can share their stuff!

Oh we do haha!! Gotta have madoka since shes the main squeeze ^.^ I bought a school uniform Madoka off ebay recently (she was the most expensive I think) so I'm wondering if thats what I get too? Was that the only way to get her?

I love the figures of the band! Rock out

[cowmuflage]

Yup as far as I know that's the only way to get her. It's kinda silly really.

Thanks! yeah they are the characters from a show called K-on!

[Krysteena]

Heh. I've been posting on here more than the rant thread lately! Oh wow life is going kinda good for me?! That'll end soon, I assure you :/ anyway, happiness!

I'm in a guild, as you know. Yesterday, there was a hunter who I've given the nickname of Jack to. He's lovely, I must say. He was after some living steel for a mount and so I hopped onto my druid and made him some. We got talking, and the mount topic came up. He only needed one mount till he got 100. So we were killing Warbringers. Nothing dropped. A little while later, and I ran him through Saratharion 10 man (he already had the twilight drake) and thus got him his 100th mount. We also ran malygos 25man (he didn't know the azure dropped off of the 10man) and he died in the last phase. I managed to solo the rest of it and I was quite proud of myself

We were lounging around shrine of the two moons when he said "It means a lot to me that you're so nice, when I've only been around a few days." I squealed. It so not every day you get someone say something so sweet, and he's in my good books. All my guild is in my good books. I don't have a bad book.

We had fun in the shrine today, my guild. The healer was sitting and had those signs around him saying 'rare creature', 'need epic item' and 'need friends' so we danced around him. Then the panda centipede was made, and things got scary. Well. The pandapede, as I dubbed it with belf on the side. And a twerking Orc. Who I later killed some Warbringers with. We aren't having much luck and not a single mount has dropped. Slate has spawned more this the others and still no mount I'm sooo close now! only 2 more to go till I hit 150 mounts. Just a black war mammoth (never try to take wintergrasp alone) and a direhorn. Or a rep grind mount, but the direhorn way should be quicker.

Edit--some terrible autocorrect demon caught me! He has been slain now.

SO MY SHITTY BIRTHDAY WAS MADE UP COMPLETELY TODAY.

Falconcrest is by far the kindest, most generous, best friend I've ever made on this forum. And this morning, two birthday gifts arrived from her in the mail. The Hunger Games: Catching Fire Limited Edition DVD and a Disney Traditions resin collectible statue of Marie - by far one of my most adored Disney characters of all time.

I cannot thank her enough, she didn't have to send me anything yet she did. ;-; I plan on taking photos in a few days when my gift from my boyfriend and best friend have arrived, since I like to take photos of everything together, but I am so unbelievably grateful for this. I cannot thank her enough. ;-; ♥

My sister also bought me a Pop! Vinyl figure of Toothless from HTTYD and drew me a lovely picture of Toothless and Stitch together! And my dad who lives really far away really kindly sent me the artbook for Rise of the Guardians (I ADORE THAT MOVIE ♥) and the Art of Dreamworks Animation. ♥ Disney and Dreamworks themed birthday much?! I love it. xD

So despite the fact that yesterday was an absolutely turd day for me, due to me being really sick and horrid, it was 100% completely made up for me today. I love my friends and family. ♥
