prius online

lol one more gaming entry. *must go around playing all the games to make full use of shit*

prius online is another 3D pvp game that's like, super similar to aikaSEA. (i heard that aikaSEA copied prius. you'll be able to see the similarities.) now, i've begun to hate games with gender-lock (meaning certain classes can only be played by certain gender avatars) but thankfully, prius' archer is female. :)

here's mine at level 19.

i admit she's ugly. but that's beside the point. see that flower on my bow? at first i thought it looked pretty. now i don't really fancy carrying a 寿桃 everywhere i go. but that's....also not really the point.

the point is, i have an anima. familiar much? lols. but the difference is, there's this gauge that increases as you go along, and once it fills up, you can awake her! like this:

much prettier! in this state, she will be able to use skills that she hasn't learnt.

animas also have personalities that you can encourage. i encouraged mine to be active and independent. which means, when i'm in battle, she uses her skills WITHOUT me asking her to. it's really helpful cos i'm training her to be a healer, so i almost never have to worry about my health!

oh ya, you can go into anima-mode, though i haven't figured out what for. at level 30 (or 35), we can get gigas. i think they're like, tanks that we can transform into? they apparently have much more health and perhaps more skills that we can use to fight boss mobs.

gameplay is basically questing. but it's better than aikaSEA because the quests are like, never-ending. (i'm stuck at level 15 on aikaSEA cos i've completed all the quests for my level and i don't want to grind.) on prius, i'm almost level 21 now and whenever i arrive at a new town, i see quests for level 10-15 that i haven't done. so yeah, it keeps me wanting to continue playing.

there's also a private 'home' where you have a bed and storage and other stuff. you get a quest to add a stove, where your anima can cook. (she can learn skills like cooking and harvesting too!) i haven't figured a lot of that out yet. it's definitely more interesting than aikaSEA. and rappelz perhaps? graphics are definitely NOT cuter than mapleSEA though. =\

pretty white tiger. quest boss mob. they have cute mobs like hopping onions and floating penguins. :P

off to tame my first mount. i think they're called peros. it's gonna be a pig. bright pink. :D

EDIT:

i've got my mount! it's a fox-thingy. not a pig. my bad!

and you have to feed it the food that your anima cooks, or it won't have energy to run. like this:

cute right?! but sadly, i've just realized my huntress skill animations aren't as spectacular as the other classes. boo!

... ...

finally done with all the assignment ones. taking a short 'study' break before i work on the 4 assignment twos. =\

i love weekends~!

why do i? because after all the food scrimping throughout the week, i get good food on weekends! :D

our second time here at vivo's outlet. made an early reservation and we finally got a corner window seat this time. can see sentosa! =\

tempted to order tenzaru again, but spotted this dish - spicy prawn pasta, with the chef's recommendation icon. so i got this instead! the pasta looked plain but it was abit spicy and so so 'prawny'. i like! the prawns tasted slightly bbq-ed/grilled too. nice~

SSD had this tori udon thingy. udon was normal, but i like the soup! faint taste of chicken and onions.

ordered the salmon handroll again (even though i STILL prefer riverview hotel's), cos i wanted some salmon. pretty normal, except they stuck the veggie in so deep that i had to eat it. and it had this weird taste so it kinda spoiled the whole handroll. sobs.

SSD went to order this salmon sashimi. mad expensive! but got 幸福的感觉~! :P

burned a rather big hole in SSD's pocket. i hope he doesn't mind. lols. /muacks.

... ...

guess where we went after dinner?

yep! we visited the sentosa boardwalk! a very romantic and dimly lit 'bridge' leading to sentosa. nice and windy with lots of seats around too. a pity sotongball sucks at night shots.

... ...

and before dinner, we went to watch bridesmaids! (yes i know the events don't flow but food makes me excited. rofl.)

it stated M18 with sexual references and some coarse language. well, some is an understatement. not that i minded. lols. though i have to admit the opening scene kinda...surprised me. -__-'''

anyway, it was a funny and heartwarming movie about friendship. and i nearly teared at the end. sometimes i wish in reality, people were that quick to forgive and forget. too bad it doesn't.

... ...

gonna love next week cos i've only got 2 days of class. plus the massage. and meeting my girls! happy!! ^o^

the truth is rarely pure and never simple.

in between juggling school assignments and newly-found-again obsession gaming, i also managed to complete the whole series (25 episodes) of the other truth (真相).

i think it's like, one of the best drama serials i've watched this year.

it revolves around a bunch of young (and good-looking!) lawyers and the different methods they have to use to solve cases. i hate how almost every episode ends with a cliffhanger and it sucks that while i was watching, HK was also still airing it concurrently. so i have to wait patiently every day for each episode to be uploaded.

but still, every bit worth the time and effort! and of cos, main reason for watching - ruco chan is hot! :D this is one of his very few 好人roles and it's nice to be supporting him for a change.

kenneth ma also appears in the last few episodes, playing a bad-guy role this time. at first i thought he was fake and ruthless (and good looking!), but at the end it turns out that despite all the bad things he did, he really did love his girlfriend. kinda sad that both of them died.

(i'm such a sucker for bad notorious guys who have a soft spot for their true love. so sweet!)

... ...

i should start to work on my report. and paktor day tomorrow! nites peeps!
