CherBear's Thoughts: Warm Summer Nights ...



Hello everyone!

Today is the last day of August & I'm feeling a bit warm. No, its not what you think, its because its literally warm in my neck of the woods. I know I shouldn't be complaining about the weather considering other places are much warmer & could be even more miserable than I am, but for now, I'll stick to my mild complaining, its warm & the warmth subjects me to leaving feeling rather sluggish.

Fair warning - the following is long & just thoughts while I sit & write in warm weather.

- Art
- Videos / MMOs - thoughts on a aging game
- September apprehensions / maybe a contest?

-----

Artistic wise, I've been working on the commission stuff, I did finish one, but slowly muddling my way through the others. Its difficult to be on the laptop where it warms up & you're just sitting there feeling uncomfortable. As for the left over requests, I haven't heard back from a couple of folks, so I'll give it one more shot before I even go through those. I hope to look to do some special sales & commissions once I get through them. 

----- 

In terms of video games / MMOs;

Audition - I've been coming & going but without my cohor- I mean Audition couple, there hasn't been too much of a reason to roam around. I come by on occassion, check on things then go do other things than play Audition. Apparently even though I've confided to some folks about my contemplation of leaving the community as a whole, they've protested against those thoughts & as much as I don't like to try & draw attention to myself, getting those few reactions from folks instead of blasting it out on the forums; makes me feel a bit appreciated for all my efforts this far.

World of Warcraft - I've been just goofing around there, mainly because, with the next patch; 5.4 Siege of Orgrimmar, I look forward to seeing what happens. Granted, yes, we will have all the criticisms of bad lore, bad features, or just bad overall on a constantly aging game, I am curious since this is sorta something that happens literally at a Horde capital.

A thought that was discussed: With WoW just getting older & older, the question begs to ask, why have I stayed around? Mainly, it has been the remaining MMO that I've stuck with ever since CoH. My one minor regret about leaving CoH is I lost touch with friends from there. When I came back, some folks were surprised to me, frankly, I was shocked they still remembered me. I tried to get back into it, when it became FTP, but with all the restrictions & trying to figure out the new odds & ends, plus time, I just couldn't & as the story goes - the game ended & I sorta wished I was there for its final closing (all hail the Liberty Server!). Realistically, I do know WoW will have an inevitability; the fact it lasted this long has been impressive. Unless they change & improve the models & do something which a lot of new MMOs are doing, I'd imagine it'll still continue to lose more folks & eventually become a FTP too then its a matter of time before it'd make it its end. Some have protested of the ongoing features & changes that happen to the game, the lore not being written as well or the lack of social interaction with easy LFR/LFD that just makes it easy to queue up & move on. Out of all of that ... why? When there are clearly better games out there. I think, if anything, I have no real reason to start a new MMO, the time, money & effort wouldn't be worth it, when I tried to juggle CoH, WoW & Audition, something had to give. Granted, I'm still around Audition, its been fine switching between that game & WoW. Would I drop WoW altogether? Not necessarily, I've been fortunate enough to meet some new folks; now whether or not it develops past that, cool, if not, no big deal. The current company I do keep & when I do roam around Azeroth has been fun, even if its late raiding or LFR. Either way, I think, if anything, whenever the end approaches, I'd like to be there when it does - simply a sentimentality for all the time, effort & friendships that have been made.

-----

September is coming around & yes, I know, my birthday is in the horizon. With the points commissions & donations, I've been highly considering putting some up points up for a contest of some sort (enough points for a 3 month premium deviantART membership). I haven't considered what I wanna do (most likely draw my Audition character) or if I wanna do it. If I do & maybe there's enough support (and people who'd like to contribute any prizes too), I may start one? I need an immediate response before the 1st of September or it'll just be a lingering thought.

-----

Anyways, that's all for now, its warm & I am gonna try to cool off.

CherBear's Thoughts: My summer comes to an end...



Some people view how summer ends for them, mine would be when school starts...even though it isn't necessarily me.

-----

Thankfully, this summer rounded out with hanging out with all my cousins one more time, before one moseys off to college. We had fun, hung out & more important just ended off our summer memories like this...even tho my youngest cousin had already started school.

Advice was given to the oldest one heading off to college, some insight from other friends who have already been through it & amongst all that, that maybe he'll take that all in for him when he's over there. [ Do I have plans to visit him there? YOU BET! ] 

The youngest one wasn't left out, giving some advice w/ his start to high school. Stuff that was said before, but now it was really his turn.

Either way, I imagine they'll both turn out fine.

As for other cousins, one had oral surgery, the other had a rollercoaster of a trip & relationship all rolled into one. 

Just that last day, we all did agree & hope we can commit to it - hang out at least once a month.

Why is it so important?

Ironically enough, after some darker tragedy of sorts that happened to someone we all knew, reality sort of started to set in, seeing that we were older, the status of where family & relatives were & we can't go back to when we were kids, being lead by our respective adults to hang out, have fun but that we as being older have to start creating our own moments similar to that past not only with our peer age group of cousins, but with whatever generation we decide to escort in, whenever that happens. So in desperate attempt to pick up the broken pieces, that's why I've discussed so much about hanging out with such important people, because ultimately, the memories we've made have that mix of emotions of highs & lows where we were happy & where we were sad - we're family & we all have to move forward.

2013 Summer has been grand, from Anime Conji that started near the end of spring/early summer, the rollercoaster of family problems that arised, graduation, the County Fair, Anime Expo & San Diego Comic Con, a birthday, a funeral & then a farewell. That, I say was my 2013 summer nutshell. Was it better than the prior years? No, its another year I do cherish, appreciate & had fun not only with family but with good company...good friends.

-----

Personally, I won't go too far but touch base on the following ...

Not to completely stray, I had fixed my laptop & I've been working on the commission works, they're being updated as soon as I've completed them & queue'd to be posted accordingly. I'm also trying to get through the requests too, once those are cleared & finished, I'll be holding more open commission / point commission specials.

While I do still look for work once again too - its a long lengthy process & expanding my options more so.

Last, I've been watching more anime, which has fun. I know I have so many more animes to watch so time to continue to check more off, oh by the way, if anyone has a My Anime List account, feel free to add me: http://myanimelist.net/profile/mscherbear (still updating constantly!) & I can hopefully check out what you've seen & maybe add that to my list too.

That is it for now, if you read this far, thank you for taking part of my mundane everyday kind of life.

Random Online Tests 1 of 2: DnD Character?



Taken from T1p2 @ deviantART --

I Am A: True Neutral Human Cleric (4th Level)


Ability Scores:

Strength-10

Dexterity-10

Constitution-12

Intelligence-13

Wisdom-12

Charisma-12


Alignment:
True Neutral A true neutral character does what seems to be a good idea. He doesn't feel strongly one way or the other when it comes to good vs. evil or law vs. chaos. Most true neutral characters exhibit a lack of conviction or bias rather than a commitment to neutrality. Such a character thinks of good as better than evil after all, he would rather have good neighbors and rulers than evil ones. Still, he's not personally committed to upholding good in any abstract or universal way. Some true neutral characters, on the other hand, commit themselves philosophically to neutrality. They see good, evil, law, and chaos as prejudices and dangerous extremes. They advocate the middle way of neutrality as the best, most balanced road in the long run. True neutral is the best alignment you can be because it means you act naturally, without prejudice or compulsion. However, true neutral can be a dangerous alignment when it represents apathy, indifference, and a lack of conviction.


Race:
Humans are the most adaptable of the common races. Short generations and a penchant for migration and conquest have made them physically diverse as well. Humans are often unorthodox in their dress, sporting unusual hairstyles, fanciful clothes, tattoos, and the like.


Class:
Clerics act as intermediaries between the earthly and the divine (or infernal) worlds. A good cleric helps those in need, while an evil cleric seeks to spread his patron's vision of evil across the world. All clerics can heal wounds and bring people back from the brink of death, and powerful clerics can even raise the dead. Likewise, all clerics have authority over undead creatures, and they can turn away or even destroy these creatures. Clerics are trained in the use of simple weapons, and can use all forms of armor and shields without penalty, since armor does not interfere with the casting of divine spells. In addition to his normal complement of spells, every cleric chooses to focus on two of his deity's domains. These domains grants the cleric special powers, and give him access to spells that he might otherwise never learn. A cleric's Wisdom score should be high, since this determines the maximum spell level that he can cast.
