New Direction Blah Blah Blah...

Same 'ol news. Stuff happens, things change. In my case, things have been changing rapidly and every day brings new experiences. Every week my life goes in a different direction. My heading keeps changing based on what gets thrown at me.

But anyway.

I have yet to decide my FFXI future. Maikeru is gone. Maikerukun is here, and I'm still not used to it.

I haven't even played FFXIV yet. WTF?!

And I kinda... moved out and moved into an apartment with Kya. So... ya...

Oh and Monster Hunter Tri has taken whatever time I have left for myself.

So... I think we will be creating new blogs soon. HAH! More work, I'm crazy. But I really want to do this. I really want to be able to blog everyday and post pictures everyday. So...

This blog will either stay as is (35%), change into a "gaming blog" (50%), or be terminated due to me quitting FFXI (whatever % is left over). I will be creating 1-3 other blogs. The first will be my everyday blog. This is where it gets tricky. If I quit FFXI, I will most likely create a MH3 blog... but like I said, might just be a gaming blog. Also based on my lifestyle and the goals I want to accomplish, I will create supplemental blogs based on personal fitness, art (music and photography), and possibly a... well, I won't share that one for now. The last will be a very, very small chance. Kya suggested it, and I kind of don't want to do it because I don't explore my options within that... thing. And also I've gotten in trouble for having an opinion online before. I don't need another catholic school banning me... ok, nevermind.

Anyway, I need to continue cleaning up my life and apartment. I'll post what I decide soon. Maybe next week.

Tired! Why am I awake?!

ALA MOANA CROCS GRAND OPENING! Friday, April 9th, 9:30AM (HST)

Today I worked in the storage room for practically 10 hours straight (with breaks here and there). The temp. kid's cage were lined with stacks of three boxes, about six or seven stacks total. The top of the stack had a layer of dust so when I pulled the boxes to break down, waves of dust practically engulfed my face. I was coughing for the first couple hours. After that, the lingering crocs dust (or "storage dust" some may call) began to creep into my lungs and I started to get dizzy. After taking a couple breaks, I felt better. That didn't last long. Our design guy had to spray paint our sign and... well, you get the picture. Not much air circulation, I was feeling light-headed after about twenty minutes.

Overall, I managed quite a bit of work. I set up most of the hooks for the kids' shoes, and stocked about 75% of our product.

I'm going to try and get off early tomorrow and head home. Hopefully I can catch an hour of FFXIV. Saturday is mine, so I'll be able to get on for a complete test, if it's ok with my KyaNyan.

Also, I'm trying a RSS feed blogger app for facebook. Hope it works!

Tomorrow will be our first grand opening! I say first because my manager hinted that we may have a second grand opening with the frills. This will be our kind of... in-store training day.

To sleep!

Meh and Stuff

Did I win the Nomad Mog Bonanza?
No.

Will I change servers?
Possibly... like 25% chance.

Will FFXI turn into WoW with the new updates?
Yes and no.

Yes because with the raised cap, everything about the game will change. Each job combo, based on what else they release, will be crazy. The level of what we already deem to be hax will be raised up a notch, and then kicked up twenty times more. With that in mind, I don't even want to think about the monster changes. Chaos will be an understatement.

No because of the level difficulty when compared to WoW. Sure when we hit the cap it'll look the same. Characters swarming with non-stop action. But the grind is still much more daunting, especially with the job combination possibilities.

What's my theory behind these radical changes?
SE is trying to cope with the depression of releasing FFXIV. I believe FFXIV will be much, much more difficult than FFXI in all aspects. Because of this, the fanbase of the FFMMO will drop... unless they stir up interest in FFXI. I believe the veterans of FFXI and those who have invested so much into their character will stay on XI. XIV will just be another chance to start over.

Anyway, that's my two cents.
