Ive been trying to play DA:I since I got it, but there are SOOOOO many crashes. I have a problem just getting through a CS. If you start playing DA:I message me your Origin name and we can try multiplayer. I still have not tried since my friend went out of town for the whole month of Dec.
Lets see, I got sick at the end of October and I didn't get better till mid way through December. I know because I was still sick for my birthday (begining of Dec and through finals mid-Dec). So I was sick a pretty long time. Mom was starting to get really worried since I don't get sick at all. Last time I was sick was about five years ago, lol.
I still can't think of an idea for a map. I was leaning to some Zelda map, maybe one of the Final Fantays games, but I'm not sure. If I get a really good idea Ill have to save up for a leather one.
My grades came back, I got all As! I was a little worried with one of my classes, but guess I did alright. I bumped into my teacher while I was out shopping and she introduced me to her husband as "Her star student" I felt really proud.
Almost 1am and the fireworks finally stopped. But I still hear music outside. Wish I could have gone out to a party. Though last year's party went REALLY bad. My neighbors won't even talk to me anymore because of it lol. So I try to avoid parties now.
I'm off to bed. Have a happy new year and Ill talk to you later! <3<3<3

I haven't been able to get my computer yet, but as soon as I don I'll be downloading DA:I.  I have been playing on my BF's PS4 though. My origin name is mimarhianne.  Feel free to add me. I watched my bf and his friend play multiplay yesterday actually, it looked like a lot of fun, but the characters tend to say the same thing over and over again. Here's my Inquisitor, Efa Lavellan. She's my knight enchanter and she's romancing Cullen.  (And she sided with the templars)
Aw, I'm sorry to hear that. D: I've been sick for most of December, mostly sinus-y throat related issues since I'm allergic to smoke and we heat the house with the wood burning stove during the winter. I'll be back at school soon though, so I should get better then.
I rarely get sick too. I'll get minor bugs and my sinuses get irritated, but I don't normally spike fevers or anything (but I did last month for about a week and a half).
I think he may have had a Zelda one made, and I'm sure he'd do a Final Fantasy one.
That's awesome!  And you should feel proud! I did well this semester, I think I got an A, two B's, and a C. (Which isn't too bad considering that I hated most of my classes). Hopefully this next semester is a bit more interesting.
Aw. I went over to Will's and we played video games (mostly DA:I and he played Destiny too). We also had dinner with his parents and ran some errands. I'm usually too easily over stimulated to go to parties. I don't do well in crowds... Or with loud music... And definitely not with people that are seriously drunk. (Which rules out most parties that I'm invited to).
Happy New Year's Karla!

I tried to add you, but it said there were no results found and that your privacy setting my keep them from appearing in search results. You can just add me, XeroTaki. I also have Steam if you play games on that, but a different name.
I made a female mage and a male assassian.
The female mage is romancing Cullen and going the everyone is equal path. My male assassian has not romanced anyone yet, still deciding who, and I have not gotten far enough to make any choices lol. I have like 50 hours on my mage, but still stuck at the same place. Ill try to get some screenshots up in a bit.
Im having a bit of sinus issues myself, but I think everyone is. Well everyone I talk to is at least a little. Some more than others.
Dinner is done, sorry for the short post. Ill make a longer one next time!

I actually got my username wrong, so that's probably why. I used my actual first name instead of my nickname. XP I'll add you. It'll be micahrhianne. Whoops.
I don't have an account on steam yet, but I'm sure I will once I get my new computer.
Nice! My bf made an archer/artificer (human) and he's romancing Cassandra. He helped the mages but made them prisoners and he's trying to keep his character in line with chantry views. I'm only about 20 hours into my elf (my bf is about 60 hours in). And I did make a second character, a human female warrior but I haven't even finished the prologue with her.
It seems like it, must be the weather.
I hope you have a good dinner!

Foolish weather, making everyone sick. I say we just have one season of summer and keep it that way. I don't like the cold anyway, lol.
Here are screenshots of my current characters. I'm sure Ill end up making more later, but just sticking to the two right now.
Male Human Assassin - Lynn
Female Human Fade Mage - Lumiere
PS, you have to watch the Iron Bull romance sceen. I laughed so hard. Its like the best thing I have seen in the game so far.
I still have so many games to finish since my Birthday and Christmas came along. I have DA:I, Pokemon Sapphire, Bayonetta 2, RPG Maker, and Super Smash Bros. Big list considering that DA:I is said to have over 100 hours if you do a full playthrough. I really want to start Bayonetta, but I don't want to pick up a new game halfway through one. Ill never go back to it.
Ive been trying to get signed up for next term, but my father went online to pay for my classes and used the wrong password and lock me out. -_- So I had to send an emial to get them to reset the lock and they won't even be open till sometime in the middle of the week. Well at least I have the classes on hold and payment is not due for a while. I still don't know what books or anything I need. I'm only taking three classes this term since one of the ones I'm taking are a prereq for all the rest I need, lol. But I don't mind going light on the classes since I had a heavy load last term.
My family went out shopping today. I got new shoes for on sale for $14, reg $50. Pants for $8, reg $60, and two shirts for $1 each, reg $10 each. So I think I did pretty well.
I'm going to play DA:I for a bit. Hope you are having a great day and Ill talk to you later.

Sorry for falling off the face of the planet so to speak. D: Seasonal Affective Disorder has been really messing with my mood lately and I just started classes again.
*laughs* I love the cold. Just not the lack of sunlight. That part is the sucky bit for me.
They're gorgeous! I'm still trying to get a clear view of Efa's face (that shows her tattoo well). And I've yet to get a decent screenshot of my second inquisitor, but her name is Arcadia (she's a Trevelyan weapon and shield warrior... Still not sure about a specialization yet).
I haven't seen it yet! I'll have to go look it up later tonight (when I don't have random strangers peeking at my laptop screen as they walk by).
That's a lot! DA:I is the only one for me (minus the other random Dragon Age playthroughs that I stopped mid-way through. I'm getting *close* to the end with Efa and I don't want to finish the main storyline. I just want the game to keep on going.
Aw, I hope everything got (or gets) sorted out for you! I just started mine yesterday and I've been to 4/5 of them. I have Remote Sensing, Weather and Climate, Geography of Biodiversity, Introduction to GIS, and Medieval Warfare. The last one is the one I haven't been to yet. I'm waiting to go in right now actually.
I hope both of our semesters go well for us.
That's really awesome. I've been saving money. I had enough to buy my computer yesterday until I got my textbook bill.  I had to order 5 books for history off of Amazon. Had I bought them used from the college they would have been $125... I was able to get them online for $54. Ugh. So, my computer is on hold until I get my next paycheck in two weeks.

Sorry...I got sick again. ; ; Strep Throat this time. The doctor said its because I'm at school a lot around other sick people and it is easy just to catch whatever is going around. So not cool. Stop making me sick people, I'm here to learn not die, lol. I have to go back to the doctor tomorrow morning. Not really looking foward to that.
I have not really had much time to play DA:I lately. I started on the hardest mode the other day for one of the last trophies I need, but have not gotten to far into it. I think Ill side with the mages on this run. Probably won't romance anyone, I'm just trying to beat it as fast as I can so I can get all the trophies.
Classes are not too bad this term. I have a computer hardware and software class. Its easy to me. I already finished 100% of the labs and 90% of the homework for the entire semester. I would go ahead and finish the tests, but they are timed and only open at a specific time/date.
On the other hand my second class is Tech Report Writing. Its killer. The professor is harsh on grading. And super vague when she is giving out homework directions. Like our homework this week is "come up with a proposal" I have no idea what kind she wants. So I guess Ill think up a few and see what happens during class.
Anyway, hope you are doing well. I'm going to try to finish the rest of this homework today and find a proposal for my other class. Talk to you later!

Aw, I'm sorry Karla. D: Strep is awful. I've been drinking tons of orange juice and tea in hopes of combating anything that the silly people around me might try to pass on. (Plus I have hand sanitizer now)...
I hope your visit went well and I hope you have plenty of time to rest up.
I now have 4 files going on my boyfriend's PS4. (I deleted my human, I have 3 elves and a qunari... I couldn't get attached to my human. Or Blackwall for that matter). I'm almost finished with the game on my first playthrough (Efa Lavellan, I think I posted a picture of her. She's my knight-enchanter romancing Cullen that sided with the templars). On my second file I have another female elf named Ena (found out Ena is actually a dalish word meaning "appear or emerge") she's an archer/assassin romancing Solas/sided with the mages (made them my allies) and I'm about done with her too. also have Revassan (male dalish elf, romancing Dorian, sided with mages, and he's a two-handed warrior/champion). My Qunari is a female/mage (haven't gotten a specialization yet), and she's going to romance Bull. I've only been playing on casual and normal so far, I might bump up my difficulty once I get a computer that can run the game.
Also, it sounds like they're going to put out a way to change the inquisitor's appearance in the game (yay!). I have a few face shapes that need tweaking. Revassan's cheeks puff out a bit more than I anticipated.
That's awesome! Most of my classes are going fairly well. I ended up having one class that I thought was going to be really interesting turn out to be a dud... The teacher is super smart (which is great, but she talks to us like we know what she's talking about, and since it's a course that's introducing basic remote sensing concepts none of us do)... And she's bad at explaining things. If you ask a question she just repeats the unhelpful thing that confused you the first time. She's also kinda bad about explaining her assignments. Our labs so far have been "go through these two manuals and do sections 1-2"... Ummm... Great. The manuals tell me what everything should look like, but not how to get it to look that way. Can you help professor? No. Look it up in the manual.
Good luck in your writing course. D: Hopefully she'll accept what you give her, and with any luck if your classmates have the same problem she'll learn how to be a bit more clear. (Personally, I'd be a bit concerned about what students would turn into me if I told them to "come up with a proposal" )
Hope you're feeling better and I'll talk to you soon!

I drink a ton of orange/banana/pineapple juice. But the students at my school seem to bring in the plauge to me regardless! Foolish mortals! Do not make the powerful Karla ill! I hate laying in bed and doing nothing. Unless that was my plan. Then its ok. lol. I am feeling a lot better though. I orderd some bike shorts (with a padded bum lol) and a helm so I could start riding. My neighbor gave me her really nice bike a month ago since her husband got her a new one for christmas. Though I think she gets a new one like every other year anyway.
I kinda backed off on DA:I for a little. I got hit with a wave of new games and I'm playing them lol. Though I'm sure Ill get back to DA:I soon. I still have a few things I need to finish. More romance options to try. Find all the fun stuff. I'm sure there are plenty of things I'm missing too. Got to find all the secrets.
This one class is starting to pick up. I'm getting better grades now that I know what she is looking for with her grading. But she is still super vague with her instructions. Found out why though. This is her first time teaching this class.
I had a psych teacher that was like that. She used huge terms and stuff way advanced for us and just talked like we knew what it was. I'm pretty sure I sat there with the "Dafqu did I just hear" look on my face many times lol. I did enjoy the class though. The tests were pretty hard though. All fill in the blank. Sometimes my brain went blank lol @_@
Anyway its super late so I'm going to get in bed. Talk to you later!

Silly people. Thankfully I haven't been in class much this week to catch any plagues they want to pass on. I've had literally one class and one lab. The snow has cancelled everything else. And, I have no class tomorrow thanks to the wind chill advisory (our high is 4... the low? -14... plus a wind chill). I'm going to be holed up inside with my tea, Will, and lots of blankets. I hate staying in bed all day too (unless I planned to). I'm glad you're feeling better though. Hopefully people can keep their germs to themselves. That's awesome. I used to love riding my bike (until my step dad left it out in the rain after he moved it while I was out of town for a month and let the bike rust... And then hit it with the lawn mower)... I hope you enjoy your new bike!
I understand that. Cycling through all the games, right? Will has backed off DA a bit too, he's been more into playing Rome II (I think because Attila just came out and he can't buy it yet). I'm hoping all my crazy adult expenses stop so I can throw money at a new computer soon. I'd really like to actually be able to sit down and play characters that are linked to my origin/Keep account (Will's PS4 can't connect to the campus internet). Lots of fun things to find. I need to do more playing in the Dales.
I'm glad you're figuring her out! My test in Biodiversity just got postponed, I think we're having it next week instead. So, I don't even know how I'll do yet. At least I have more study time though.
Yep, that's probably the exact look I had on my face during class today. She did finally help us with one of our labs though. (Actually demonstrated what we were supposed to do using words less than four syllables). She seems to be pretty understanding though, thankfully. I've been doing decent on all my labs for her.
Oh, and I finally got pictures:

I'm feeling back to normal now. My sinuses are still killing me, but that is all on the weather and not much I can do about that.
Every now and then I take a character alignment test to see where I stand, and once again I hit chaotic netural by a landslide. With true neutral in second. I get chaotic netural 99% of the time. Once I got chaotic good and one time I took it when I was in a really sour mood and got chaotic evil >.> So don't take the test when you are super angry lol.
I don't have any current screenshots of my DA:I characters. Ill get some next time I play, but I have been so busy with work and school. This is the first day Ive had off in a month. Honestly I feel like I'm about to turn to mush.
This is going to be a super short post, but I'm seriously about to die lol. I promise next post will be better!
Hope you are doing well, and talk to you soon!

That's good to hear! Sorry your sinuses are acting up though. D: I've had about a week of stomach bug issues (probably due to stress) and my left ankle is hurting for some reason (dunno why, I might have rolled it early in the morning when I was half awake).
I do that with Myers-Briggs Personality tests on occasion. Just because it's amusing for me to see which of the two personality types I usually end up getting I am on a given day. I seem to switch between INFP and INFJ (with only about a 2% preference for perceiving or judging any time I take it). I seem to be an INFJ in the Fall/Winter and and INFP in the Spring/Summer... It might have something to do with my seasonal affective disorder.
I understand completely, I was playing a lot of DA:I with all the snow days. I do have a new guy and a dwarf that I don't have any screenshots of as well, I'll get some sooner or later.
I hope you feel better! And I hope things calm down for you! Talk to you soon!
PS, let me know if you're missing event items. I have a few spares.

Hey Dusty, sorry I went poof. I had some medical problems keep my down for a bit.
My finals are over, I think I got all A's this semester. Though I won't know for sure till grades are posted at the end of the week. Though I feel really good about it!
I want to start working on a decent bio sheet for my two characters, but I feel like I don't know what direction to head in. Like should I make my own world or pick a fantasy one and include them in that?
I have to get to bed, I'm super sorry this one was short as well, but I'm still not 100% yet, I hope you understand.
Oh, I did a little drawing between exams. I really like how it turned out. Lumiere
I might resize it for my siggy. What do you think?

It's no problem Karla, I wish you a speedy recovery! I've been awol lately as well, I found out last week that my grandmother has stage 4 cancer, so I'll be poofy. I think she's getting a biopsy done tomorrow so they can figure out where the cancer originated and hopefully start her on a treatment.
That's awesome! I'm in my last week of classes, I survived a presentation this morning. My exams are next week. And I've got two projects to get finished up by next Tuesday/Thursday respectively.
Oh, awesome! I need to get back into my writing. A lot of my written stories/poems lately have been channeled towards my pet profiles on Subeta. (Which all still need work...). I usually like creating my own world (with my Subeta pets it's usually a slightly AU Dragon Age world, since I have a bunch of fan pets).
No problem! I hope you're feeling better soon! I dunno if I've told you yet, but I did finally get my computer and I've got DA:I installed! (Plus the mass Effect Trilogy which I'm working on playing through).
She looks gorgeous! Definitely siggy worthy.
