So I’m 22!
Didn’t get many birthday wishes this year..actually, got close to none, which is completely new…but apparently when your family disowns you for no real reason…it’s to be expected.
Anyway!
I’m back in New York, back at work, and about to start school this week. I have “Linguistic Analysis” (easy course which is centered around what my B.A was all about. Originally was tested out of it…but I just need a stupid easy course for this semester till I graduate with my M.A from New York University!) on Thursdays and Swedish I (:D For ARDETH!) on Wednesdays. I hope it’ll be an interesting semester.
Final Fantasy wise, the idea of transfering servers still plays around in my head. Shiva seems to be seriously dead…like…beyond dead. There are some big name shells out there…but they are all either filled with drama, filled to the brim that it makes no sense to apply or just…known for some “shady” happenings.
Let’s see…the ones I know of are the following:
- HopeFromAsh
- AncientTechnique
- CoD
- RedWings
- LPKids
- TaruSoDelicious
I think that’s all right now. HfA isn’t offering me what I want from a shell. They are good people, but not exactly what I want. I would like to do Salvage, Assault, see an HNM or two, do SOMETHING. Mostly it’s Sky, repeatable Dynamis for those people who for one reason or another can’t make it during the actual time, Limbus (don’t have the money to just throw 30k every week right now) and other things that I’m just like “wha?”.
I think it’s a bad sign when you don’t even care to say “Hello” in the shell anymore, much less go to the events or keep the pearl on for very long. Points? I could care less. I don’t think I’d have a problem doing things for fun, but I just can’t bring myself to be…enthused or eager to go do things as I once was.
Simply put, I’m bored.
AncientTech isn’t accepting applications.
I see nothing about applications for CoD.
RedWings aren’t operating on my time.
Thanks to Isawa, lol, a group of people from LPK have contacted me about applying, but I wouldn’t go without Meph.
TSD seems friend based–i.e, you know a friend, you get in.
I’ve toyed with the idea of setting up an Assault group [can't get any interest though...most people I know who want to do Assault, do it with their respective Linkshells...can't get much support in HfA either.], then moving on to Salvage…maybe becoming something more as I learn more…
But when you feel like you shout for hours with no response, you have to wonder if your efforts will ever work out!
My days are filled with farming with Meph and trying to get help on my Avatars to eventually go after Fenrir…which is proving taxing
. Can’t seem to pull together any help for it.
Maybe this weekend will be better…!

Taritai,
Happy Birthday (late, but none-the-less sincere)
I definately understand the family thing.
re: FFXI
I hope things start getting interesting for you .. Hope you find a good core group to be able to do some of the events with. One of my friends just moved to a different server, and he says it is completely different, so as hard as it is to move, it may be what you are looking for. But before you move your main character over to a server you know nothing about, maybe create a mule to throw on another server and use the mule to get a feel of how things work there.. its an idea anyway..

Belated Happy Birthday Tari!
Yeah, family disownage sucks. I don’t think my grandad has talked to me in like 3 years, and rest of my dads family are pretty close to that… anyway!
On the FFXI front, if Shiva is dead, you should move to her opposite, Ifrit, hehe :3
But seriously, I don’t think it’s just Shiva. While I have a decent sized LS, I’m seeing a lot less shouts for things in the main cities, and I’ve been finding it harder than it used to be to find a party. That may be because I’ve been leveling 15-25 jobs with friends, and parties for those seem to be… non existant these days.
But maybe that’s just me imagining things
