Yes, I request off of work for a game release (expac in this case)
Yes, I use my vacation time for just sitting at home and playing video games
Yes, I will have several days/nights of no sleep
No, I will not shower for several days
No, I will not step outside my front door
I know this list can go on but I will stop it here.
I am extremely excited for tonight. Hopefully work goes by fast and without any issues. I will be closing with Robin now so no napping before midnight.
First expansion in a long time I will be going in blind. I was not given a beta key this expac. As extremely bummed as I was, I thought of it like this: Discover things for the first time with majority of the world. meh, nvmd that was a shitty attempt at trying to make myself feel better for not getting into beta. What the fuck ever! :-P
Anywhos, I have not read anything not even that launch guide link I posted on my FB feed. Having done the betas for the other expansions, It was always a race to hit max level the quickest I could possibly go and then go back and explore. You're at an advantage of course, because you know the quests and dungeons etc. It will be slow for me this time. I will not rush anything, BUT I hope it won't take me all my 6 vacation days to hit 100. that would suck.lol
I made sure to move all my screenshots to my hard drive and free up the folder on my desktop for a shit load of new screenshots. I am the screenshot Queen and expect nothing less in the first week of this expansion. I will try to keep up with my "Screenshot-a-day" blog. 8/24/14 was my last post in that. I'll try to keep up with that one.
I am excited for garrisons. I wanted to get the beta mainly to poke around with that. That will be my new hangout like Halfhill was in MoP. Screenies I've seen so far are so beautiful of the landscape of Draenor I'm so excited.
Finally I will end this by saying that I will attempt to not sleep for the first few days, but we'll see. I am not going to go with energy drinks... just Mountain Dew and candy... put myself into a sugar coma instead of sleeping. aye!
