Meet Talila.

First pony of my DVSO breeding pair, even managed to get the right colors, whoo =D
Was supposed to be a stockings/tips carrier, but I misread the genes I have available at 100 BP, so she became stockings/stripe >_>;;
Ah well, 9 BP till the attempt on creating the male. I just know he will end all wrong, color wise.

Bred to herself she would look like this:


Tips would be better, but alas. First breeding pair project ever. Let's see how this ends up first =P

2nd Triple Visible? Nah... [31 Jan 2009|04:35pm]
[ mood | content ]
[ music | Sand Dream (Revo & Kajiura Yuki) ]

As Dwyns and Mireilles firstborn was so pretty, I gave it another try. Sadly, not triple visible. But did get a double visible. Seems somewhere in the pedigree of papa or mama, there is this silly stripe gene that is barely visible.

Anyways, meet Belanor:


Visible paint and stripe. Guess he wanted to look like his daddy?

Also, meet me latest starter, Esta:


Mr. Gene likes to give me blackish ponies when I ask for it. Shame I got no acces to sgenes yet, as she's quite close to my dream fairy pony (minus the colorized ZZ and stockings).

And last, [info]aien_hime  gave me a gift! :D


She claimed that Ystava turned out as a failpony, as I believe she was aiming for a white pony (feel free to confirm =P), but I still love her to bits. I even have a mate for her in mind whom will give some potential double visuals. *big hug* You rock, hun! ^_ ^

Maru over and out for now!

PI madness [26 Jan 2009|02:57pm]
[ mood | okay ]
[ music | Hide & Seek (Amuro Namie) ]

Was originally going to write some non-PonyIsland stuff, but after seeing todays newborn, I had to make a post.

I really can't be arsed to explain what it is all about. Just go to ponyisland.net and check it out yourself (basically it's a virtual pet site). I blame [info]aien_hime for getting me addicted =P

Anyways...

Meet Dwyn:

I got him on the pony market when he was a lil' pony. I was new, got only a bit of gold and basically fell in love with this guy. For any die hard player he ain't anything special. He has a mixed pedigree, thus not being a full blooded Unicorn. Even has some minor inbreeding. But yeah, I liked him ^^ Now, several weeks later, he grew up into a handsome guy whom has become my main quester (and highest level pony I own). So...I tried to find him a mate...without any luck. Tried some breeding with one of my own unicorns, but the result was meh, till I tried it with this lady:


Mireille. Mixie, heavy inbreeding, whom I got when I bought her pregnant mom. She was probably meant for culling or something. But I liked the way she looked, so I kept her. As for her first offspring....this was the result:



Isn't she kyuuuute? Meet Amara <3 Totally didn't expect the stockings....and she even got a faintly visible stripe O.o

I couldn't await the 20 days till she would grow up, so I cheated on JWebGen =P


So pretty *_*

On other news, the result of Mariana and Aegis was less impressive...totally not what I had expected :/


Mom having visible ZZ and a rainbow carrier. Dad visible rainbow, colorized ZZ and tips carrier....the possibilities were great.


Like....wut? XD Meet Aiden, an offspring with ZERO visible S-Genes. He's still cute tho :3

There, happy now Aichan? I posted something in my LJ =P

WotLK [12 Dec 2008|02:33pm]
[ mood | chipper ]
[ music | Path of Tears (WotLK soundtrack) ]

Was going to write a rant about the crappyness of my guild and raids, but meh...done enough whining of that already. Let's have a more positive view on the game :3

Love the music. Glad I got the Collectors Edition, now I can endlessly listen to the soundtracks <3

Love the lore. Zomg at Muradin being alive O.o CoT - Stratholme was pretty nice too, tho the blabbering of the NPC's get very annoying after 3 times. A small pet peeve: they should have given the high elf mages and priests their original WC3 unit quotes. The basic night elf reactions are just too generic. But that's just me XD

Love most areas, love siege weapon/vehicles! Wrath Gate event...just wow. Cinematic trailer was awesome, great job Blizz.

Love Discipline spec as priest. It's a nice change from mindless CoH spamming, even tho I lost 150 spell power as a result. Really Blizz, give disc some buffs. My guildies are too 'Spec Holy to be useful' Honestly, my power aint in purely healing...but in preventing damage with shields. Ya know, absorbed damage?

Hate the way you need to get recipes for some professions. I don't want to do friggin' dailies to unlock cooking recipes or any profession recipes. It takes aaaaaaages.

Hate the broken Achievements. I can't even get my Chef title due to having to wait another month or so for all recipes, plus the fact 4 recipes are missing ingame, making it impossible to get some achievements done. Not to mention the missing Panther Jewelcrafting recipe, healer plate goggles for paladins...

But alas, guess Blizz had to hurry a bit to make it to the release date *shrug* Better run now, folks are expecting me in the store. Whoop >_>

Meh [22 Nov 2008|11:11pm]
[ mood | annoyed ]
[ music | Rollercoaster Tycoon music ]

Gomen gomen to anyone I have been a bitch to. Crappy week IRL and the fact WotLK CE taking its time to arrive isnt doing me any good, mood wise.

Short summary:
Mom is on Gran Canaria with sisters and grandma (whom got it as a present for her 75th bday) for 10 days. As a result, I am more chores ridden than usual. Add the fact dad is on a convention in Utrecht for 3 days, thus poking me to babysit our store on Friday (rushing there after work) and Saturday. It's cold, people are cheap lamers, dad forgot to put prices on a lot of items (hello many phone calls to daddy).

I was hoping to have some fun in WotLK after a long day of crap, but since the bloody game is taking its time to arrive...I am in a VERY VERY VERY bad mood. Granted, Rollercoaster Tycoon is keeping me semi-occupied (yay for finding patches online to a game from 1999 work on an imba new pc!). But meh...it's very frustrating to see everyone around me ding 80. I just can't be arsed anymore to log on WoW, aside from doing my daily Minor Inscription Research.

Amusing fact: As I can't be bothered to stay on late, I am going to bed 1 to 1,5 hours earlier than usual. And my body isn't really agreeing with that. It keeps claiming I only need 6/6,5 hours of sleep, thus as a result, I wake up at the ungodly hour of 7AM, while I can stay in bed till 7.30/8.00AM. It's really not cool, especially since around 6AM my sleep is getting all restless-y, waking up loads.

Also: cell phone got fixed somewhat. Can receive/send phone calls/sms again, hoo! Which also means I can do my payments online again =P

Last, a screenshot I have been using on my desktop as of late. Cookies for anyone who can guess the location :3 Bonus points for whoever can pinpoint the exact location.

Awaiting the Collectors Edition... [13 Nov 2008|01:10am]
[ mood | bored ]
[ music | Sei Otome no Inori (Kajiura Yuki - Mai Otome) ]

So Aichan managed to get her hands on 2nd CE of WotLK for me, as the preorder I did turned out to be sold out...but I have to wait till at least Monday till it arrives. So much for the plans I made, taking a day off from work too.

Am already bored as hell. Not in the mood to level yet another char (5 level 70 chars is enough, thank you), maxing out professions is no use, as Northrend will offer me new recipes from 350 and up. Finished 3 fishing achievements (ZG, Lurker, 250 fish). Mister Pinchy wont show up, nor Ironjaw. I would be mad to run into Orgrimar now to go fish, too many peeps around, guards being level 75. Already explored the world. Nor do I feel like logging Maru, while my guildies are happily leveling in Northrend. No use logging any lowbies, instances are all deserted anyways. Tried farming new pets, but too many noobs trying the same and after 3 complete respawns of the area, I was tired of that too.

It's funny, I waited over a week for my TBC copy to arrive, never was that anxious at that time. Then again, I was pretty much in a dead guild, so no pressure whatsoever.

I guess I'll fire up my Warcraft 3 game or something, finishing the Undead campain to get extra lore about how Arthas became ze Lich King or something. Or maybe farm some herbs tomorrow, saw my Inscription alt is running low on certain oils...shame my only herbalist char is Maru.

Ah well, cya peeps later, I guess.

WotLK blues [03 Nov 2008|12:54pm]
[ mood | worried ]
[ music | Shukuteki (Kajiura Yuki - Mai Otome) ]

So WotLK comes out in 10 days...and quite frankly, I am not really looking all forward to it. Not as my priest, that is.

For the moment I hit 71, I will get nerfed, by each level I gain, spirit will become more and more useless, to the point I will go OOM halfway a boss fight. It also marks the day I will be staring at health bars for another 2 year...mindlessly spamming the same heals.

Holy spec is lackluster, there is not a single talent in there that is refreshing. Guardian Spirit...I don't expect to use it much. Tanks tend to die suddenly anyways, one extra second rarely makes a difference. CoH has become a mindless task. I target a random raid member, and it will do all the work for me. I don't need to watch range of peeps anymore, I don't have to make sure anymore that group members are nearby. I cannot controll who it heals...I can target myself and it might actually skip me on healing, because a nearby raid member had 5% less health than me.

So I plan on speccing Disc spec...which hopefully will revive my love for my priest, having to relearn how to heal, no longer spamming CoH while chatting with people in whispers...because it really was THAT easy and mindnumbing.

Quite frankly, I currently enjoy doing dps more. My paladin, lv67 pre-patch, got a major boost in dps. Before the patch, I went OOM after 3 mobs, even with Wisdom judged on the mob. Now...I am a killing machine. I can take on 4+ mobs at the same time, keeping my health up with insta FoL after a crit, Divine Storm and Judging Light on the mobs. I am truly unstoppable. Hell, I solo elites with ease, especially now that I picked up a few epics from the Scourge Invasion event, crafted belt and cloak.

Been doing instances with some friends who were leveling their alts too...zerged BM as freshly dinged lv70. I love pushing my dps, to the point I nearly pull aggro, or actually pull it, taking a few hits till the tank finally manages to to rip the mob off me (a hard task, I can assure you). I keep on looking for ways to increase my dps. New rotations, food, enchants. Never ever did I put so much effort in increasing dps.

So yeah...tempted to reroll paladin or even moonkin...but we'll see what WotLK brings us, I guess...

Eep, ran out of time. Off to college!

New PC and all that jazz [23 Aug 2008|10:08pm]
[ mood | chipper ]
[ music | Pirates of the Caribbean Theme (Eminence trio performance) ]

So...new pc arrived a while ago. The CPU machine is so big O_o I totally lurve my new monitor tho. It has touchscreen buttons on the frame, rather than ugly normal buttons <3

Anyways, I always prided myself for being quite an IT geek...till my PC arrived. Dear lord, installing took quite a while. Getting everything running took 2 days, needed help from Jamie (yay for lappy with wireless) and BF of sis ^^;; The silly manuals didn't help much either. Imagine getting a box filled with many more boxes (one of each item build in my pc, for warranty reasons), some still filled with spare parts. So yeah, now I degraded myself to an IT software geek, rather than a full fledged IT geek =P

But it was so worth it. It's fast, shiny, starts up in no time. And playing WoW on this baby is so nice. I can actually run around in Shattrath now without any lag (went from 10 fps to 60, whee). Raids in BT went from 10 fps to 35/40 (sometimes a bit lower), all stuff on maxed settings. I totally went 'Oooh' and 'Aaaah' on the first day, as if playing an entirely new game. I can see the entire area in battlegrounds like AB and EOTS!

Well, that's all for now. And no whine post for a change!

....I really need to make a new LJ layout tho...it looks horrid on a 1680 x 1050 screen setting.

Eminence, just wow [14 Aug 2008|10:08am]
[ mood | contemplative ]
[ music | Two of Us (Joe Hisaishi - Princess Mononoke - Eminence) ]

So while I was checking for a decent Youtube video of Canta per Me, I stumbled upon a live version by a quintet called Eminence...which serisously amazed me, to a very emotional point.

Ever since I was a young girl, classical music has been my thing (yes, that earned me a lot of wtf's from fellow youngsters and even family members). Heck, at some point in time I even wanted to play violin, but that desire got replaced when I hit high school, for one to play piano, which I eventually did. And I never regretted it, even tho I quit taking lessons about 2 years ago.

Checking youtube made me remember how much I love classical music again, and how much I love pieces with a violin in it. I don't know what it is really...that fragile sound, which could shatter in tiny lil' pieces....or suddenly turn into a big crescendo, filling the hearth with a burst of energy. Give me a piece with both piano and violin in it, and I'll most likely will be a goner, heh...

Thank you Eminence, for returning this love to me...a love that was forgotten for a few years. Kajiura-sama managed to revive it in her own way (hell, some of the pieces Eminence plays are HER compositions, after all), but seeing and hearing the songs played by real people, seeing how much passion they put in their performances...nothing can beat that.

Some of my favorites:



Yes, I am aware Eminence has in fact an entire orchestra group too. Go check youtube if you're curious =P

Ordering PC stuff online? Never again! [12 Aug 2008|09:33am]
[ mood | aggravated ]
[ music | Olympics on tv ]

So 3 weeks ago, I ordered a PC (assembled all parts with the help of boyfriend of sis), 20 inch flatscreen monitor and wireless keyboard + mouse for 1240 euros. This included the costs for putting it together and shipping. As the boyfriend of sis had good experience with this company (tho he never ordered a full pc), I took the risk.

Well....to put it midly, it's not worth it. I got within an hour of paying online a confirmation of my order. Things looked well. But then I didn't hear a single thing for 2 weeks long. I knew that one part had to be ordered and would take 3-5 days to arrive, but that would leave me with like 7 days total to wait. But after those 2 weeks, I got a phone call. Apparently the memory I picked wasn't okay. The specs were too high for my pc to handle O.o  Needless to say both me and boyfriend were surprised. But I shrugged and told them they could get me an alternative in the same price range. Amusingly enough, I now got a 4 gig one, while the one I picked myself was 2 gig.

Okay, so now my precious pc should arrive any time eh? It had been 5 days since the last phone call. They told me they were testing it big time, to make sure it worked. But no. Today I got a phone call...the keyboard I ordered wasn't available....and the delivery time was unknown. It could take days, weeks, months.

Fed up with the drama, I removed the order for the keyboard. I'll plug in the keyboard of the family pc instead, as I am home alone anyways (folks and brother are on a holiday to Spain as of yesterday, for 2 weeks...more info about that in a future post, I guess). So yay, they told me they would send the pc out today, so if all goes well, it arrives tomorrow *snort*.

I had good experience with online stores, but this was just silly. I guess it's a risk with putting your own pc together, with computer parts that have separate delivery time (despite the fact I made sure none of them would take longer than 3-5 days to arrive).

Whee, another whine post. I am getting good at this! =P

Stupid meme thingy because Ai-chan tagged me >_> [17 Jul 2008|11:38am]
[ mood | blah ]
[ music | Random sounds ]

1. What are your reasons for having a LJ?
To have a place to whine about things and because I am too lazy to update my website with latest doodles. I also love messing around with LJ layouts.

2. What do you do before bedtime?
Lounging on bed, chatting with peeps on Yahoo, browsing on the internetz. Brushing teeth, getting my PJs, usual jazz.

3. What will your dream wedding be like?
A small wedding with only my close family and friends. I don't really want it to be a big parade.

4. What is the city of your dreams and why?
Florence, Italy. I love the laid back attitude of the local peeps and the many old architecture and art <3 Also, Italian Cappuccino ftw!

5. Are you an introvert or extrovert?
Introvert.

6. Which is more blessed, loving someone or being loved by someone?
Both, there is no such thing as one being more blessed, when it comes to love.

7. Do you trust easily?
Hell no. To outsiders I am a very grumphy looking silent female. Get my trust and you get to see a whole different person.

8. If you found the car that you've always wanted to have but it's too expensive, what would you do?
I am no fan of driving in cars, so I would never buy a car that is too expensive....but damn, if it's my dream car, I would be pretty annoyed =P

9. What is coming up that you are looking forward to?
Dunno, not really looking forward to anything atm.

10. What is your best quality?
I am pretty good with computers and I am told to be a good teacher when it comes to explaining IT related things to elders O.o My personal best quality? Dunno...am pretty bad at self reflection questions.

11. If you could fastforward to a certain age, just for a day, and then come back to your actual age, what age would you pick and why?
I wouldn't want to fast forward, as the future isn't fixed. Going forward in time would mess up my decisions and actions for the future.

12. How do you see yourself?
A person who still needs to improve a lot about herself.

13. Who are currently the most important people to you?
My family

14. What kind of person do you think the person who tagged you is?
A bloody annoying brat who attempts to get me more active again on LJ.

16. How many children do you want to have, if any?
2, a boy and girl would be awesome ^^

A balance between both.

18. If you fall in love with two people simultaneously, who would you pick?
The one that is better.

19. What would you do if you (or your girlfriend) became pregnant unexpectedly?
Keeping the kid, abortion is so wrong.

20. What were your parents going to name you if you'd been born the opposite sex?
I think it would have been Mark, would have to ask to be certain.

Tagging...

Noone, rawr!

Musings of a Fangirl of Insanity [10 Jul 2008|04:10pm]
[ mood | amused ]
[ music | God Knows (Aya Hirano - The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya) ]

Yo! A certain Maru decided to dust off her LJ again. How long it will stay dust free is the question tho ^^;;

Aside from the usual WoW fandom and some anime stuffs, as of late, I started to read some fanfics again on Fanfiction.net. Man, that place has changed. Is it just me or is that place now ridden with young teens, 75% of the fics being yaoi? O.o Now I am not totally anti-yaoi. As a matter of fact, I read some shounen-ai fics that had an amazing plot, making the whole male/male pairings easy to handle...but most fics are just lame excuses for authors to let their fave chars have shameless flirting/sex/whatever. And some pairings are really ridiculous!

....maybe I'm just getting very old -_-;;

Anyways, amusingly enough I decided to read some...gasp, DBZ fics. Yes, Dragonball Z. Don't ask me why! I was just browsing a bit on the website and without realising, I clicked on the link to DBZ fics. Also here loads of crappy yaoi ones...I wouldn't be surprised if about 90% is yaoi or otherwise straight pairings where the females got traumatised due to being raped in the past.

So...I quickly moved to the Harry Potter section, looking for some crossover fics...and was quite pleased with the result. I found several that seem very nice, bookmarked them and all for future reading. I even found a HP x Warcraft one...which started decent, but turned out to be highly OOC. Yes, it was an AU, but that doesn't mean that a 10 year old Harry Potter, son of Sylvanas and Arthas (giggle) has to act like a jerk, who beats up anyone he doesn't like, using the F-word a lot. That's just plain silly.

Another thing I noticed is the grammar quality of 99% of the fics...it makes me cry, really. I am not fluent in English either, but at least I attempt to use proper grammar! Most fics that seemed interesting, were instantly clicked away when I saw the setup of the first chapter. Often oneliners, no proper descriptions of scenes, sometimes even bordering on net/chatspeak...as if I am reading some MSN convo. Is it something of this generation? I see the same thing among my 15 year old brother and his friends. His essays are very badly written, due to rarely reading books. Usage of chatspeak, not using question marks, comma's and such stuff... I stopped reading after a few lines. It just hurt my eyes and brains X-x

Alas, enough writing for now. I'll try to come with a proper update of my online and real life soon...I hope =P

[ mood | okay ]
[ music | Valkyrja (Yousei Teikoku - Mai-Otome) ]

Just a minor update, while avoiding my studies. Still no new doodle, did see the first 2 eps of new anime at Ai-chans place tho. Elemental Gelade, to be precisely. Having heard the opening song (Forever, by Savage Genius, go downloadi it!) ages ago, I practically bugged Ai-chan to buy the DVD with the first 5 eps. So far, I like it a lot, nice diversity of characters, healthy amount of humor, but also some drama here and there. And you know what? I'm actually considering to cosplay as one of the chars during Abunai. Anyways, back to the anime...artwork is awesome. Have seen the style before, but can't recall where... The music is very nice too, tho during an action scene, the music seemed to lack a bit, could have been a bit more...dunno... But alas, can't judge an anime on 2 eps, so will have to see more before I can have a real opinion about it, especially music and plot wise.

Been raiding too, ofcourse. We wiped several times on Wizard of Oz, till we finally downed the darn event. Requires a lot of coordination to keep 5 mobs under controll (Roar, Strawman, Dorothee, Tito and Tinhead). But when those are downed, it's cake imho. The Crone is a joke. Only had to throw around a few renews, while avoiding the whirlwind.

Piccy: Ding dong, the witch is dead!

Also downed Curator in 2 tries, without any Arcane Protection pots, me healing the DPS, while the Paladin healed the MT (tho I had to switch to healing MT at some point, when Pally was out of mana, hehe). Yay for having a shadow priest in the group as well, btw. Mana regen ftw!

Piccy: No silly robot can stop us from reaching the library!

Sadly, no loot for me, but our Warlocks were very happy with the drops. Afterwards, we ventured into the Library, discovered the location of Illhoof (which we attempted next raid, wiping several times for 3 hours) and the Chess Event, which we downed as well. Don't have pic of it, as it's like HP1 movie/book, one big wizard chess, where you control the pieces, no real boss that you have to kill (unless you count the king). Not really the real chess rules tho, as the pieces had special abilities and all. Sadly, one of my mods was bugging the controls of my piece, so I couldn't fully participate in this event (which annoyed me greatly). We won the event in our 2nd try, again no loot for me, meh.

Hmz, prolly should go back to my studies. Cya all later!
