A brinjal on the road

A brinjal on the road, 

Oh, a brinjal on the road . 

I've seen a brinjal on the road 

And it's really on the road

Walking along the hard, tarred ground,

Looking for food around, 

I spotted something purple, 

And nope, it's not a turtle, 

It's a brinjal on the road~~~ 

What an odd place to be, I'd say, 

But then again, that would be nay, 

A vegetable on the ground, 

Wouldn't be as odd as it sounds. 

A brinjal on the road, 

Oh, I saw a brinjal on the road

A brinjal on the road

I've seen a brinjal on the road.  

- okay, it's just me getting inspired by a brinjal I saw on the road the other day :P-

Argenta fan here ngekngekngek

Of the Q and my Mission

I recall how I started work in Mission-Q in January. Haha, I must say I was pretty scared about working in an environment where I didn't really know anyone there. Plus, my boyfriend was working elsewhere and wasn't accepted here. 

I remembered how Joel introduced himself and so did Yi Xuan- and I was pretty surprised I was the only new girl...so I had to keep up. I recall having to play Day and Night with the two guys and how we didn't manage to finish the room until like...a few weeks after haha. And I remember how that on my first day there, a man wanted to propose to his girlfriend an coincidently on my last day, they were having a birthday surprise. 

I've learnt shtuff from here (like using number and word locks which I seriously had no idea how to before this. @^@) and met all kinda of people xD. 

Playing all the rooms here and learning how to reset them and dealing with customers opened me up abit more than I was before and I come to face what people at the front desk would face: customers. All kinds, I would say :P. 

Bringing my friends here and seeing how they enjoy the rooms was also something enjoyable to see, because they are able to feel the fun that I had when I tried out the rooms for myself (although I had like 2x the amount of time they had lol). And everytime I look at the Polaroids they leave behind on the wall, I would just smile to myself. 

It's a pleasant place with pleasant people to work with and every customer that walks in, is something I look forward to everyday in work. :3

I really hope they're doing well because I hope the best for them and really, if anyone is up for a challenge, and maybe looking for a cheaper alternative from Escape Room, try this out. We maybe unable to guarantee the fun if you've been to Escape Room or any other place with the similar concept, but I can say tht it can be worth your money. XD xD

Or maybe am just biased coz I've worked there 😜😜😜😜

Little Fairy (Drawing)

Something I drew a few months back hahaha xD 

Still can't seem to be able to colour though :X

Of Kitty Cats and Coffee

So, I found out that there was this cat cafe open in Subang SS15 (Where am currently staying)

Coffee Cottage

It's known as COFFEE COTTAGE and generally, it's the first cat cafe in Subang, or at least the first that I know of.

So, me and my friends decided to give it a try for our gathering. XD

The pictures below are the cats that you can find there. I kinda forgot their names but I remembered one of them was called Alvin xD

Basically, in the cafe, you have a room separated by glass where they keep the cats. Before entering the room, customers are required to sanitize their hands so that the cats can remain germ free (apparently).

(The pictures are all taken using my iPhone ^^)
There are teasers and toys that you can use to play with the cats but customers are advised not to carry and cuddle the cat unless they are the ones that jump onto you.

One thing I have to comment is that the cats get pretty bored of the attention you give them. The cats are cute though xD. Once you order your drinks and food from the counter, the waiter will ask you if you would like to have your drinks taken into the room where you can have a cup of coffee while playing with the cats.

The Menu

Here's the address to the place:

1-1, Jalan SS15/8A, 47500 Petaling Jaya, Selangor, Malaysia.

And the facebook link is over here:

https://www.facebook.com/coffeecottagemy

Do take a look and check it out. Their menu may not be much but the cats make things very different for this cafe as compared to other cafes. ^^

Names, names, names~

Came across this article recently and decided to share it on mah blogggie~~

My name's Elle, and well, often I would come across people asking for my name. And somehow, everytime I say 'Elle', it somehow turns out to be something weird which does not sound like Elle at all.

Did I say it too soft, or...what?
Can't really brain this @@
My name just sounds like a simple alphabet: 'L'

Adding on, when people try to pronounce my name after reading it:

"Er...your name....El..lie? Ellie?"
Or like
"Elleh?"

*facepalms*

Should've chosen something like Ann, that sounds more like the alphabet: 'N'.

http://www.buzzfeed.com/erinlarosa/the-15-most-annoying-parts-of-having-a-unique-name
Here's the link of the article.
Seriously, I don't think my name's unique @@ It's basically the short form of the name Helen and somehow people do get it wrong T.T

I have a friend whose name is Kikyo, and people pronounce it better than mine Q^Q.
Coz either way, you either pronounce is Kik-yo or Ki-kyo; which sounds pretty much correct either way T^T.

In that article, I especially have to agree with 4, 8, 9 and 15 ahahaha xD

It's pronounced like the alphabet L~~~~ ELLE~~~~~

It's a damn palindrome name RAWR.

Ever had that problem, people? XD

OKAY, ELLE OUT

WEOWWWWRRRRRRR

Of Nesting with the Dragon

A few weeks back, my boyfriend introduced me to this new game called 'Dragon Nest'

Basically, it's a MMORPG game developed my Eyedentity Games, a South Korean online game developer in 2010. Unlike games like World of Warcraft and Ragnarok Online, Dragon Nest focuses more on a non-target combat system - Which actually means, you control where your character hits, instead of what your character hits (No targeting system).

I wasn't initially keen on playing MMORPG games besides WoW and RO, but I guess giving it a try doesn't hurt, since it's free after all.

Am currently playing under the South East Asia server (SEA) so the accounts are generally handled by Cherrycredits.

There are basically 6 classes released in Dragon Nest and they include:

1. Warrior
2. Archer 
3. Cleric
4. Sorceress
5. Kali

6. Tinkerer

From left:
Cleric - Tinkerer - Archer - Warrior - Kali - Sorceress

I'll do this review from my character's POV. It's because each character may have a different storyline, but eventually all of them would converge together because it's the same story LAWL.

Anyway, my character is an archer, and I named her: 'Calenya'. ^^ Generally from the archer's POV, the hero's task is to rescue this girl named Rose (or Rosie). You start off in Ironwood Village and generally you will have side quests and of course the main quest line (DUH, any MMORPG game would have this).

In DN (Dragon Nest), you'll get to create guilds, party, go on challenging dungeons at different difficulty levels (Easy, Normal, Hard, Master, Abyss) There are tons of items that can be looted - ranging from Normal, Magic, Rare, Epic, Unique and Legendary.

The Kali Class

The currency used will be the basic Gold, Silver and Copper, and these can be used to form Heraldry, a form of enhancement that you can equip to increase stats as well as improve your skills. Besides, your equipment can be enhanced, as any MMORPG games allow their players to do and you are also able to craft new special Epic class equipments.

From the basic classes listed above, each class will be capable of  advancing to a higher class at level 15 and will be required to chose from 2 choices:

The below diagram lists out the choices that each class may take:

In my case, I took an archer and I have a choice of advancing to be either a Sharpshooter (Bow Master) or an Acrobat. I chose Acrobat, which is more specialised in close ranged combat as compared to her long range counterpart, the Bowmaster. As an Acrobat, when I advance further up to Level 45, I have to choose between a Tempest or a Windwalker.

In order to summarise the chart, basically the player will start with a base class, (i.e. Warrior) and from there advance to the First class - (1-1: Swordsman, 1-2: Mercenary) at level 15 and then later to the Second class - (2-1-1: Gladiator, 2-1-2: Lunar Knight a.k.a Moonlord, 2-2-1: Barbarian, 2-2-2: Destroyer) at level 45.

Okay, that confused me a little @@

Archer Class

aowignaoignawoignaoignaiongawi

*ignore that gibberish part for abit*

Carrying on,

Dragon Nest overall is not bad of a game, with pleasant graphics and rather flashy set of skills for every class. Dungeon-ing with friends proved to be very much of a fun experience and players who are up for a bigger challenge can try Nesting, which is a term used when the player/party wishes to challenge a very much harder set of monsters. (WARNING: NESTING IS DEFINITELY A NO-GO FOR SOLO PLAY)

'tis essential for a priest to be around XD

The Black Knight

Besides Nesting and Dungeon-ing, there is also PvP (Player-vs-Player) and there is where players get to test their skills against other players. Each class's skills will have 2 different statistics whereby one is for PvE (Player-vs-Enemy) and the other for PvP. So before entering PvP, players do have to bear in mind the difference in stats for each skill. ^^

Rose

The main storyline is not bad, I would say; something about a black knight and Rose, who apparently has the power of the ancients and you have to save her before her powers are taken. And you will bump into Argenta, the sorceress with white long hair and wears red clothing. Until now, since I'm hanging out in Calderock Village (for like forever lol), I've yet to progress through the storyline entirely but I have to say that Dragon Nest is definitely interesting and its even better when you have friends tagging along!

Argent

I would give Dragon Nest pretty much...hmm...about 8/10?

GAMEPLAY:8/10
MUSIC:8/10
COMBAT:8.5/10
PLOT:7/10
GRAPHICS:7/10


The cons for this game, IMO would be that the level cap is at Level 70 (if am not wrong with the new patch). It used to be at Level 40 which turned many players away from the game. But with the new level cap, many have returned and the DN community is growing back once again (and I'm one of them!! xD). However, if the community continues to grow and this level cap stays, it might turn them off again (LOL). I mean, look at RO, the max level cap was at 99 and now it's at 150! So, I have that feeling DN might just do the same (ahahahaha), which can be good (I think?).

So for those MMORPG lovers who have not tried this, give it a try! ^^ There are lots of things to experience in this game and I would say it's fun on the long run.

You better run~~~~ Chase em~~ xD

LINKIN PARK ROXXXXX FOR LIFEEE!!!!! 

Of Birthing by Sleep

If the title seems to ring a bell but ain't loud enough and a few things like:
1. Keyhole
2. Key
3. Square Enix
4. Light and Darkness
seem to cross your mind,
Yes, it is Kingdom Hearts, Birth by Sleep.

I've just recently finished this game (Yes, I know am pretty behind schedule. I'm just a little slow on catching up with the series, k? I don't have the funds and I got to wait for the emulator to play this AWSM game)

KINGDOM HEARTS HAS NEVER DISAPPOINTED ME. I've played KH1, KH2, KH:CoM and now this. (Am still under the process of starting 358/2 Days LOL) and so far, it's still awesome. I have no idea how Square Enix/Soft could think of such a creative game with such a creative storyline.

BBS (Birth by Sleep) generally is the prequel to the entire KH series (I guess). It tells the story before the other Kingdom Hearts. Who Xehanort was before he was well, Ansem the Wise's apprentice, who were the  'others' that Xigbar mentioned and how did Sora, Riku and Kairi came to inherit the ability to wield a keyblade.

OMG, everything seems to be perfectly placed. How Castle Oblivion was before it was what it's seen in CoM and who were some of the Organisation XIII's human lives.


Again, like any other reviews I did, there will be spoilers after this section and if you don't like spoilers... just don't read this xD


---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                       ******************KINGDOM HEARTS BIRTH BY SLEEP********************
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Okay, I'll just start off with the characters (Like always :D)

1. VENTUS

A young boy who is the youngest of the trio (Terra, Aqua, Ventus). He was brought to the Land of Departure by Master Xehanort for his fellow keyblade master, Master Eraqus to help take care. 

Ventus bears very very close resemblance to Roxas and this could be because when Ventus's heart stayed with Sora, Roxas took traits from Ventus instead of Sora.

Ventus started out as a lifeless person, because part of his heart was damaged in the process of extracting his darkness out by Master Xehanort - thus leading to Vanitas's creation.
Ventus then gained 2 best friends, Terra and Aqua and began healing and becoming the Ventus that players will find themselves playing.
However, there is more to Ventus than meets the eye as it is revealed that he is the only one capable of creating the kye-blade (χ-blade, also pronounced key-blade)

Ventus is completely oblivious about his ability and does not know that Vanitas was part of him. Once he found out the truth, he sets out to destroy Vanitas and prevent the creation of the χ-blade.

2. TERRA

Terra is probably one of the oldest of the trio and acts as the big brother to Ventus, knowing that the latter had no one he trusted after he came to the Land of Departure. 

Terra is probably one of the strongest among the trio (Ventus being the fastest and Aqua being the best in magic). Terra and Aqua ere the ones who were to take up the Mark of Mastery exam, the final exam before any of them can become a Keyblade Master. However, Terra was unable to contain the darkness inside him and failed the test while Aqua passed and became Master.

Terra kinda reminded me of Riku because both have the stronger darkness inside them but are also people who cherish their friends so much that they are willing to be consumed by the darkness.

However, Terra gets tricked by Master Xehanort without realising the older keyblade wielder's intentions and ends up being used and voila- possessed by Master Xehanort. Hence, he becomes the Xehanort that we see in the later Kingdom Hearts series.

3. AQUA

The only girl in the trio and probably the most stable (personality wise and light-darkness balance thingy) IMO? Oh well, she is the only one who made it through the Mark of Mastery exam afterall. :P

Anyway, Aqua makes use of magic more than physical strength, putting her magic higher than both the boys. Aqua sets out to help both Ventus and Terra, knowing that if anything were to happen to them, she is the one who has to help them both.

However, sometimes, things don't turn out as they should be...and Aqua finds herself in dilemma and the trio also found themselves breaking apart. Nonetheless, Aqua discovers that her friends are her everything and that she is ready to sacrifice herself

for their sakes.

She was the one who carried Ventus and placed him in the Chamber of Waking (which is the Land of Departure converted into Castle Oblivion, OwO) and because of her, Terra-Xehanort remained in the Realm of Light instead of falling into the Realm of Darkness. Aqua is strong because she has her friends and she believes that there's always light within darkness.

This is just too cute~~ <3

4. VANITAS & MASTER XEHANORT

Villains of the story, nuff said. 

Vanitas (on the left) is the darkness within Ventus that has been extracted by Xehanort and became a being of its own. When he and Ventus clash, the χ-blade will be created. Vanitas bears resemblance to Sora (I still don't know why) and is the one controlling the 'Unversed' (something like the Heartlesses and the Nobodies).

Xehanort.....THIS GUY IS THE ROOT OF ALL THE FREAKING EVENTS IN KINGDOM HEARTS.

This old bastard who tricked Terra, damaged Ventus's heart and well, cause Aqua to be stuck in the Realm of Darkness =.=

I just hate him.

KINGDOM HEARTS AND KEYBLADE WAR OBSESSED FREAK.

I REALLY HOPE HE DISAPPEARS FOREVER IN KH3 =.=

Well, I really feel that this game is reallllyy good. It was a long time since I last played Kingdom Hearts and the last I played was KH2. So, playing this sort of game again really brought back lotsa nostalgic feelings.

And the secret ending was just...<3 <3 <3 <3 OMG

And oh yes, Riku and Sora when they were younger. I just lost all sense of control and made a sound that didn't sound...human...=///=

 

AND OMG IT'S AXEL AND ZEXION (Nah, it's Ienzo and Lea :P)

 

  

Them characters~~ <3 AND TERRA IS SO GENTLEMANLY~~ <3

When I saw Zack, I was like 'ZACK, YOU'RE ALIVE!??!?!"

 

The sad moments....of Terra...Q.Q When Master Eraqus just faded away and after Xehanort took over his body and when you fight as Terra-Armor and you can't hear Terra's voice anymore...Q.Q

And oh, when Aqua sacrificed herself and sent her armor up with Terra-Xehanort's body and took his place in the Realm of Darkness...OMG....SO MUCH FEELS....

ANYWAY, KINGDOM HEARTS BIRTH BY SLEEP IS AWESOME :)

REALLY RECOMMENDED (Especially hardcore KH fans)

The trio's wayfinders.
From left clockwise: Terra, Ventus, Aqua
