Around the Spiral with Edward Lifegem

It's The Most Wonderful Time of the Year!

Hi there!

I can't believe I've made seven blog posts in two days! I told you that I'd still be here this Winter and I am. I'm not going to leave like I did last year, but I will tell you that I'm here to stay as long as Wizard101 and Pirate101 are open and I hope that's forever. :P I'm also going to try to post all 25 Christmas songs.. I can't believe we only 13 days until Christmas. Please slow time down! I need to watch Christmas movies and listen to so many Christmas songs. I really do love this time of year. Next week I'm going to post all old fashioned Christmas songs so I hope you stick around to see that. :D Here's one of my other favorite Christmas songs ever!! Christmas Song #12 It's The Most Wonderful Time of the Year by Andy Williams.

An Ice Storm!

Hello Wizards!

I hope you're having a great weekend so far. I'm already having a great weekend because I don't have any homework! :P The only thing I've been busy doing is questing with my sister, Melissa Rainstrider, on Wizard101. I really don't remember the last time we quested together on the game, but I can say that it was so long that I wasn't used to my storm spells when first started questing! We had a lot of fun and really made it pretty far considering how we've been in the same area for at least a year.

We started questing today at 9:00 A.M. and ended around 3:00 P.M. which means we quested for six hours! If you knew me back in the day, you'd know that I could stay on Wizard101 for 16 hours! I can feel a migraine just thinking about being on the game that long. I love Wizard101, but there's no way I could even stay on that long these days. I'm behind on the game because I always get headaches when I'm too long! I guess that's pretty normal. I really think it's because there's a lot more to do on the game than there was when I first started the game. You really have to think about a lot more than you had to back when I first started the game: Critical Attacks/Blocks, More Cheating Bosses, Pet Healing, Gear and so much more. That doesn't mean the game isn't fun, though. Critical Attacks ON bosses (no block) are always fun. :D I guess it's time to get back to talking about what we were up to today... :P

Today we started questing in Tierra de Brea (we were there for at least a year or the last time I made a post about my storm wizard and my sister's ice wizard), quested through Pitch Black Lake, Floating Mountains and ended up in the Twin Giants! Today might have been the most we quested together ever! The only thing that I missed today was taking pictures of my sister casting spells! Now that she finally has a membership, we're planning on questing through Khrysalis and Polaris during Christmas break. I already know that it's going to be a lot of fun to finally quest this much. We're planning on questing tomorrow too and I hope we can finally complete Azteca once and for all. It's been a rough world for us and we're ready for a new world. We (or I) mostly had trouble on boss fights since we ( I again) kept dying! :P We're going to farm for gear soon so it's easier to fight bosses. I've had the same level 58 gear since Celestia was released! We'll start farming soon and get the gear that we need so it's easier to quest through Khrysalis and eventually Polaris! I wanted to make this post to let you know what I've been up to on the first weekend of my break. I should leave now because I have to make a Christmas song post! Thank you all for reading! Until next time, I'll see you around the spiral. :)

I love the screenshots that I took today! I'll take more of my sister's attacks on my next ice storm post. :D

The Polaris Express!

Ahoy Pirates!

Did you know that Kingsisle gave away free Christmas items today for 12 Days of the Spiral? :D I was lucky enough to redeem a code (YULEZOMG) and I found out I won a permanent Polaris Express Mount on Pirate101! I usually don't get this lucky and I was thinking about buying one of these for my swashbuckler. I knew I wanted to somehow buy a Christmas mount since I'm planning on questing soon, but I didn't have crowns to buy one! :P I guess having a Christmas mount to quest with was meant to be..! :D Anyways, I wanted to show you all the mount that you'll see my swashbuckler on for the rest of the month. Don't forget to redeem the code above before December 17th at 11:59 P.M. CST for your free Christmas item on both Wizard101 & Pirate101. While you're at it, don't forget to check out the last four days of 12 Days of the Spiral this week/next week. :)
