I should maybe post something more broad on my general observations about WoW or what it’s done to my life, but right now I don’t feel like writing a well-structured and reflective post, so I’ll just mention something cool from yesterday to fill the space until I get off my arse and write a proper entry.

Okay, so here we go: The inevitable blog entry about World of Warcraft. I bet if anybody is still reading this blog, you saw it coming when you read the last post. Well… I’m predictable, like everybody else.
I have two characters on two different servers now. Condon is a currently level 4 human mage on the Defias server, Skronck is a level 11 troll rogue on Moonglade, on the verge of obtaining his 12th level. As I gain more levels above 10 with Skronck, I start getting worried about my talent builds and the fact that I have no idea what I’m doing. Luckily, the WoW community site has a talent calculator to remedy this! And thus, I turn to the three of you who read my blog (not counting Torsten who got me into this blogging business in the first place, and on whom I force my links every time a new entry is created) to help me figure out the optimal builds to use for Skronck and Condon.

Last day at Greenpeace today. It began with a complete fiasco and ended with a great time.

Got my discharge letter yesterday. Apparently my standing with Greenpeace (or is it in fact the civilian conscription administration? I’m not too sure) is “very satisfying” (loose translation). That’s nice, I guess. Not sure if it will ever have any real consequences for anybody though. Last day of service is upcoming Friday, which is both nice and sad. Nice because I will no longer be a ridiculously underpaid full-time office slave, sad because I will no longer be getting money for working at Greenpeace. If I want to drop in on occasion (and I do), it’ll be as a volunteer.
It also means I gotta get myself a proper job. Right now, I’m all for engaging in an uninterrupted slacking-spree for the next 7 months until university starts, but I feel quite certain that vacancy will get old again after a few weeks. So I’m planning a 2-3 week winter vacation, and then I’ll try to find a job. Preferably only 15-20 hours per week. And preferably something to do with computers, I don’t like carrying around heavy objects. Mmph.
