Sea and Current Thoughts.

Hey Everyone! I know its been a while since my last post. I’ve been really focusing on school and also keeping up with my in-game events. So this past week in-game has been a ton of Sea with Finale and with non-Finale friends. To kick things off Finale has been doing progression in Sea and just yesterday we tried our  hand at AV (Absolute Virtue) the final boss that is spawned when you kill Jailer of Love, We didn’t kill AV but it was fun we did get full drops on JoL. Outside of Finale I have joined a small group of friends that want to farm and kill sea gods. We did out first Jailer just the other night, it was Jailer of Fortitude and I had my doubts but we came through and defeated him. Not only were we successful at killing JoF but his torque dropped as well. I spent all of my points on the torque and now I am blessed with the first Fortitude Torque out of this group. Another thing that I like about this group is I am main Paladin, its a nice change from the everyday White Mage of Finale. On another note, I recently obtained a Valor Cape from Dynamis with Finale, that makes me 6/6 Valor now, Its a awesome accomplishment. I’m currently looking for means to make mass amounts of Gil, as I would like to start my Relic Shield. On a real life note, I’m currently really focusing on School, I’m almost half way to my AA of Science for Electrical Engineering. My internet problem have seemingly worsened, I can barley stay online for an entire event, because of this I have been semi-kicked from HM for Salvage. I’m still questioning my school/degree choice, I sometimes feel like I’m going the wrong way with my life, I still feel that I should have to go the Art institute in San Diego for Audio Production. I’m just not good at math and what I’m doing is all math related.  There are job openings at Square-Enix for GM’s, there basically handing me the job, but due to me not driving I can’t work there yet. I really need to fix this driving thing so that I can go after my dream of working at Square-Enix. I really want to go to Finland, The current status of the USA is just epic failure and its upsetting me. I’m sorry for anyone who is reading if this offends you, but I’m sorry just because I live on a piece on land in the world doesn’t mean I have to be patriotic for it, we are human’s of the world and you can choose where  you want to live, as long as you go by the country’s standards and laws.  I’m look forward to trying out Final Fantasy XIV Online. Anyways That is enough for today. Take care.

A New Idea.

So since I haven’t been playng Final Fantasy XI much lately, due to my joblessness and not so amazing wireless internet I have had alot of time to think. I’ve come up with a new idea of a story of Saion also including my friends Belzac, Caitria, Deboro, and others. I have basicly wrote a rough draft of char. backgrounds. I also have a rough idea of the main story. I’ll post the Char. backgrounds and if anyone reads my blog, they will tell me what they think.

Characters:

Saion – Saion is the main protagonist of this story, he is the protector of the Kingdom of Krista. He is the soul guardian of the Royal Family of Krista and of the Divine Crystal that protects the Kingdom. His sword that only he can wield is called Balnor, The sword is bound to his soul and is the sword of the protector of Krista, his father, Destin was the wielder before him, When Saion was much younger his father was badly hurt defending Krista and was going to die. The day he died Saion became enraged, running into the throne room where Balnor was being held, running to the sword, the King’s guard tried to stop him but couldn’t Saion’s hand grabbed the handle of Balnor and in a huge burst of Light it bounded itself to Saion’s Soul, The power of Balnor made Saion swift and powerful.

The Future.

A update from the life of Fred. I recently started college, attending ITT Tech in Vista for Computer Network Systems. I’m half way done with my first semester! I grad. in March of 2011 with an AA degree in Science! I would then like to move up to the LA area and attend the Musician’s Institution (MI) and get my degree in Audio Engineering, then try and open my open recording company “Perfect Melodies” I think it can be done! I’m looking forward to what the future has to offer.

Peace & Love

Season’s Feelings

Hello Everyone, Its that time of the year again Christmas/December!! My favorite season. I am truly grateful for the events of this past year, My best friend coming to live with me, my golden 19th birthday! It was a blast I wouldn’t give 2008 up for anything. When this time of the year rolls around we forget the small things, the little dramas that happen in our life’s we come to remember who we really are and notice that even our true dreams and feelings still have effect on us. With all of the crazy stuff happening in our life’s this is when we can just relax and enjoy the time we have with family or loved ones. This season was the biggest time for my family we forgot everything this time of the year and we just enjoyed our time together, It was never how many gifts you got on Christmas, it was the joy we got from simple things: Cookies, Lights, Music, Decor, and most of all family. Try this season to just put away the small things, forget all of your problems and just enjoy the season and family, because once you lose that like I have, everything will start to seem bland for you. So keep your mind up and enjoy this lovely time of the year.

Your friend,

~Fred (Saion)
