Clowns

Have you ever thought you'd never do something and then ended up doing it anyway? I guess I could say that I have done this very recently with the prospect of Obsidian armour on my monk. Let's face it, I've finally reached that point where there is very little else to do in the game, and though I could claim boredom as the catalyst that finally brought me to this conclusion, it was more to do with the feeling that this achievement has yet to be tapped by me. Yes, that's right, I'm going for Obsidian armour (see it here).

I've never really looked at that armour and gone "wow, that armour looks really good!" in fact I think it will make me look a bit like a mad clown escaped from a circus, all I'd need would be the face paint (awaiting next year's Halloween to see if they do a mad clown mask or something). I especially think this about the top half with it's strangely reminiscent evil clown style collar (as shown in the picture). In any case, it will be a statement that says that I am just like every other monk with obsidian armour and chaos gloves, although better in skill than most (I say this because I have watched them monk and thought "what the hell are they doing?").

Going after this armour will also mean many trips into underworld once again. This time, though, I have the advantage that Sean is also going for obsidian which means that I will have a partner in crime to make the farming more bearable and easier. I remember when I decided to get my first pair of chaos gloves; I spent a good part of a month dragging people in there with me so that I could try raising ectos. Even though I know it'll take a long time, I am looking forward to trying for this milestone.

In other news, my FYP is coming along nicely. I did my first thorough edit of the prologue on Friday, and am now starting to set myself goals for completion of the first edit. With a quarter of the first edit done, I feel positive that the editing will not be as hard as I had thought. Though the breaks I'll need between will be fairly spaced, I'm confident I'll get it done to a standard that is fitting with everything I can achieve.

Next week also promises a fair amount of fun aside from the work. Hayley should be spending the night on Tuesday, and hopefully also staying for a good portion of Wednesday. The alliance are doing another quiz night on Saturday too, which should be good.

I guess that's all really at the moment. Have fun readers :D
