Getting hot

Summer is coming really rapidly. It was really hot yesterday and starting to get a warm at night. Time to get my thin blanket out, and bring on the sun cream! Talking about sun cream I need to buy some higher SPF ones as the sun here in the UK is start to get pretty intense.

I love summer! So bright, so pretty, so happy. Since it’s almost summer I need to prepare some summer things like shimmery & summery colour make up, sunglasses, summer jewellery, summer clothes & shoes.

Addicted to a Facebook game AGAIN
Last week Ivy introduced me to this FB game called Mall World. About 8 months ago, I was completely addicted to FB games like Restaurant City & FarmVille then got bored of all these restaurant & farm style games. Mall World is yet another tycoon style game. You have this shop where you sell clothes, shoes & bags. I love games where I sell stuff & make money so this is perfect

Name for my jewellery store
I’ve using the name Essencious Designs for my jewellery store. I was also thinking of Essencious Jewels. Which do you guys think is better? Also any other suggestions? I did think about Essencious Crystals but I may not always use crystals. I want to start beading and using pearls as well once I’ve had some practise at that.

Some ideas for names so far
- Essencious Designs
- Essencious Jewels
- Essencious Crystals

I’ve removed the “Add to Cart” buttons from my shop because I won’t be sell anything for a little while. 1) stupid volcano in Iceland erupted last Thursday and the ashes blow all over the sky in Europe. So no planes are flying in or out meaning I won’t be able to ship anything internationally. 2) I’ve decided to change the designs a little. I’m going to be using sterling silver chains instead and different bails too. 3) Moving everything to the shopping cart area I set up for this. So check back soon.

Busy bee & Sims 3

I recieved Sims 3 yesterday from Amazon!! *excited* I play a bit last night but didn’t really have time. Can’t give an opinion of it yet as I only played it for a shot period. I will definitely write another entry for Sims 3.

I had a few things to do last night, all related to Essencious Designs. I had to order new pieces and decide how many of each I want to buy. I hate waiting for delivery but I don’t have the time to head to the shops to buy it. I ordered some new gift boxes few days ago and they still haven’t arrived! I seriously hate waiting for delivery, I’m not a patient person.

I set up a shopping cart script today (finally), so I’m working on getting the products listed in the shop Hopefully it’ll be much better than this manual shopping cart I set up. I also need to retake the photos with my friend’s SLR because I think the photos looks a bit crappy at the moment. Hopefully they’ll turn out nicer and maybe professional looking too.

First two week of Aion as a cleric

So I’ve pretty much almost played two weeks of Aion as a cleric. In general Aion is a really nice game with some good graphic. The bad side at the moment is the queues. Between 3pm-10pm GMT the waiting queue to join the server is around 2-4hrs. Imagine what it’s like for those that work or have school. They come back after a long day, hopefully to relax and play Aion, instead they end up waiting in the queue for 3hrs. By the time they get in, they can only play for an hr or two then its bed time. That’s what it will be like for me next week.

Continuing the queue issues, my friends and I predict that many players won’t continuing subscribing for the game next month. So we’re thinking that if NCSoft doesn’t do anything about it by then many players will quit which will reduce the queues. A really bad move from NCSoft as their response to this was to tell players to move to the less populated server. Well most people won’t do that as they have friends on the server they’re currently playing and don’t really want to re-roll and start again.

Besides the queue issues, the game isn’t so bad. I’ve only played a cleric as that’s always the class I play in every MMORPG. I find it really hard to level on my own as a cleric at first, then I understood how to play my class probably and it’s pretty easy. It’s probably easier than most other classes. Potions are expensive in this game and players don’t really use them unless its essential. Therefore when players grind they tend to sit down and regen their health points or mana points. Classes that can’t heal themselves or kite monsters have to sit down after killing 1-3 monsters to regen their health points. Cleric on the other hand just heal themselves when health point is low and only need to sit down and regen when mana points is low. Cleric also has a mana regen self buff that would regen their mana in about 10 secs.
