A list post

[oanja]

Things that are awesome right now:
1) the re-read post of the Wheel of Time series on Tor.com
2) Knowing that I get to go to Edinburgh on May
3) Winter
4) Jane Austen movies (watched the BBC version of Pride and Prejudice and Sense and Sensibility last weekend)
5) Playing WoW after a long hiatus (I'm grinding my very low fishing skill up on two of my characters)
6) Sun shining (although that means it's freezing outside, which is a drawback)
7) Finally doing something about my thesis, even if it is only making an appointment to get an advisor for it
8) Tea
9) The flatmate who is never here. \0/

Things that are less than awesome right now:
1) It's freezing out and my car battery does not approve of that
2) Having to study and write reports etc for university =P
3) My room being cold
4) Having a huge pile of dishes waiting to be washed
5) Having a huge pile of books waiting to be read

And progress report on fic:

Dude, why does it feel like it takes FOREVER to grind up your fishing skill?

Oh, yeah..because it does. *pats*

Seriously! I got my skill to a hundred (still low...) and it took ages. *grr* And then there is the sense of wasting game time as well, like 'you could be doing a quest right now and getting experience instead of trying to get a lame fish you have no use for' Like why can't we get some experience from catching a fish? That would be so much more motivating. *pout*

At least my pet could eat the fish that I caught, but then I was stuck carrying around all these stupid fish. People don't realize how much bag space it takes up keeping food for your pet!!

I'd also hate it when you'd be camping a good fishing spot and someone would come along and start fishing there too. It bothers me! Those are my fish, damn it.

They do have those achievements that you can get for fishing. You get some stupid title, but it would be nice if it gave you XP instead.

It really does! (Take a lot of space I mean) and I'm trying to teach cooking to one of my toons and that takes up even more space! Really all the trade skills do... Not fair.

Hee~ yeah that is annoying! I did this fishing quest today where you had to fish a particular fish from Stormwind and of course there were a lot of people doing it at the same time...

I guess, but I'm never going to get that done, there are so many achievements you have to do and I have a short attention span. xD I don't have any titles for any of my characters which is sad. =( *pout*

I envy you for going to Edinburgh! It's on my list too XD Whole northern England is.
And i think most cars would refuse cooperating if it'd be THAT cold

I'm looking forwards to it like a kid with ADHD... XD I just love Scotland so much, can't wait to go back. ^^

Yeah, it was -25 again this morning. Poor car, it's a wonder it manages to work at all. Especially because my Toyota is 20 years old. =D
