Awwwwwww Yeeeeaaaaaahhh!

So I just placed an order with Amazon and I cannot wait to get my stuff in early March. What did I order, you ask? Here, let me post the pics:

            Vol. 1 of Ultimate X-Men (Hardback)
 
Vol. 2 of Ultimate X-Men (Hardback)

I am just way too excited about these! I seriously just can't wait to get them in the mail so I can start reading them. I'm a big fan of X-Men and all, but I've never read the comics. My favorites have to be Phoenix, Magneto and Mystique. I adore them since they're just so badass. 

On a similar side note, I got my order in today from Jinx! I bought the 8-Bit Baby shirt featured in The Guild (link if you don't know what the hell I'm talking about) and one of the "Geek" bracelets. You have no idea how excited I am to wear that shirt to work this Friday.

I should also be getting The Guild's seasons 1-4 in the mail any day now.
Oh, it's also Norn week on ArenaNet's Guild Wars 2 site! I love the Norn and I definitely plan on playing as one when it comes out! So far I'm going with the Guardian profession, but it also depends on what the other 2 or 3 professions that haven't been revealed yet are like.

It's just been a really good week. I am such a happy geek right now. Seriously, you have no idea.

I roll my d20! Did I hit?!

Ever since moving to this new place, I've met a lot of nerds and geeks. In fact, they're all pretty cool and are not the stereotypical "acne-ridden-no-social-life-reject" that they were made out to be since forever how long ago.

I have recently started roleplaying with a small group of friends. Now mind you, we do not dress up. We do not LARP (live action role play). I play a fighter character named Beatrix (yes, inspired by the general from FFIX). Melee is always so much better and way more enjoyable to play than any other role in my opinion. I used to play as a magic user in MMOs and stuff, but it just wasn't fun. Actually, it sucked. A lot. 

Currently we are playing Pathfinder. I want to try out WH40k since I've been told it's really awesome by a few friends. I'm not entirely sure anymore as to what I'd play as in WH, but I'm sure they'll kick some major ass (just the way I like it!). 

I look forward to playing many more games/campaigns in the future~!

Well, until next time, I leave you with a late night doodle from last game night. ; )
