Thread of Accomplishments

[Azunara]

Well. With all the questing Azunara has done, I stopped in IF to check out the mini-pets I could buy. I noticed I could buy a black whelp, (Then, personally, I want a red. Rhea's kid and all. >.>) but in the end I ended up picking up a black hatchling.

So now Raven has a more mischeivous friend. It still needs a name, but I rather like 'em.

[Sarayana]

Congrats Wark!! 15 eggs in one go is amazing!

Haha just kidding! Grats on the tame. I know what you mean about the rare chase, personally I hate it so terribly much. My rare tames have all been pure luck or by the help of wonderful friends.

[VelkynKarma]

I did it! After playing for a good three years, attempting to play casters at least a couple dozen times, and always failing miserably...I finally got my mage to level 80!

Okay, it's not AS huge an accomplishment now that he's still got 5 levels to go for cap. But considering I only got Cataclysm a little over a week ago, I say it's still a noteworthy achievement. I've never gotten any other caster clothie past vanilla content, let alone BC, and CERTAINLY not Wrath. So. AWESOME.

I can't wait to quest with him in the new Cata content now!

FINALLY! WOOOOO! LEVEL 85 ON TSAMI! Now I can go and train, then celebrate, then do some normals until I have good gear.

Anyhow congratz on 80!

[Kalliope]

Got my drake of the west wind, which was a bit of a pain, considering that the alliance on my server have trouble winning TB.

Pretty cool!

[Sarayana]

He looks good, Kalli!!!! I wish I could justify that on my priest, but I'll have to focus on getting that trinket first, and I'm not much of a pvp'er as it is...

I got a job! I mean, another job! This one's full time, it's basically what my degree trained me to do, and it's with an organisation I've dreamed of working with since high school!!! I'll be working 1 1/2 jobs for a while until I finish the data analysis and reports for my current job, but my current boss is completely supportive and happy for me! It's kinda unreal how things are falling into place.

Now I just hope I make it through the 3 month trial period...

[Kalliope]

If you decide to do it, you still don't have to PvP for the marks. And many of those rewards are HEAVILY PvE oriented. And that caster one is REALLY nice!

GRATS Sara!! You can do it!

[Sarayana]

Yeah, I'm doing the dailies when I can get someone to babysit join me (I'm sooooo damn squishy, not used to that after being a hunter for so many years... ) cause that healing trinket looks amazing!

Thanks for the encouragement. I know I'll be fine, it's just that I've never gotten a job I wanted more. I mean, ever! This is quite literally my dream job! ... so of course that nagging voice in the back of my mind keeps telling me it won't last... *sigh* I'll try to ignore it.

[Saturo]

Just out of curiosity, what will you be working with?

[Sarayana]

I'll be working with an international organisation's statistical department on a new project they're starting up about education around the world. It's an awesome mix of social scientific methods (both qualitative and quantitative, which makes me a happy camper) and stuff like conference presentations, collaboration with national governments and other IGOs, and writing reports. *gleeeeeee*

[Saturo]

Pff! Social stuff!

Glad you got a job you enjoy, anyway. The only parts of it that make sense to me is scientific method and writing reports, but eh. Different people. ^^

[Sarayana]

Hehe yeah, I'd probably be looking for the nearest exit if you asked me to sit and do computer coding or put me in a lab...

Thanks.

[Cialbi]

Grats on your dream come true! Can't say that it sounds like fun; I'd personally prefer the lab. But hey, if it's fulfilling, then good for you!

[Sarayana]

Haha yeah, thank goodness we don't all want to do the same work.

[Kalliope]

OMG YAY!

So while flying around on the PTR, I decided on a whim to hit up Twilight Highlands to visit Sambas/Karoma, just to see them. I tab out while flying, then tab back in to see my corpse falling through the air and a giant dragon filling my screen. I also had an achievement.

....

I was torn between laughing and growling at that point, since I'd had no luck whatsoever getting killed on live.

Feeling daring/lucky/crazy, I went back out to the same spot in the southwest corner of Twilight Highlands on Kalliope and hovered in front of the Altar of Twilight. I knew I could get away with being in the air because of my PTR experience. Sure enough, a few minutes later, I tabbed back in to see fire spawning everywhere, an achievement in my immediate scrollback, and Deathwing just starting to fly off. FINALLY.

[Sarayana]

!!!!! That's hilarious! ... coincidence?

[Teigan]

[Sarayana]

Grats Teigs!

[Royi]

yay tiegan! you win... alot of things! now you just need another Vial of the Sands on Tiegan and you're all set!

[KynraWindrunner]

I remember I got one achievement that really made me proud. It was the one that if someone captured your flag and you kill him before he even get out of the room. I don't remember what it was called now, it's been so long since I played lol Iron Man I think was the name...not sure but if it's not then I know I got that one too ^^
