End of April update

 Not quite the end of April but figured I'd get one out now cuz yeah, I'ma forget later. Gonna start with the good stuff of course then kinda drift off into the not so good stuff.

FIRST! Yeah! I got the Rasz skin. Long have I been farming this weekly, well since season 1, and a few weeks ago a guildie gave me his drop. I always make it known that I was trying for this for a long time and at the end of our Vault of the Incarnates practice run, a guildie whispers me saying that I'd get more out of this mount then he would. I was sooooo happy I was speechless a little while after and sooo greatful. YAY!!!!!

My next mount I was given was Midnight from Karazhan. Quantum Corsair drop from Rise. Shifty doesn't care about mounts so he gave it to me, but when I opened it and he saw what it was, LOL he was like wtf! that mount is so cool. I'm sure he regretted his decision to give it to me BUT! too late!
Actually I'm pretty positive if he opened it, it would have been something else cuz he doesn't have a lot of mounts so the available options for him is a whole lot more than mine. I really should go and farm this on Heroic just for a chance for the quantum mount drop. 

This month saw the Noblegarden event. So I'm really not too sure when they added a bunch of the mog, pets and toys, but I was missing like all of them. I only had 2 of the bunny ears, no pets, and none of the transmogs. The duck holiday boss was new I'm pretty sure. It dropped a carpet mount after turning in the daily kill quest and you get it out of the basket reward. I believe I got this to drop for me a couple days shy of the end of this event. I was getting so discouraged, mainly cuz I was not running this on my alts until a few days before that. So I was kicking myself for not taking advantage of that part. I was seeing this drop for everyone so I thought it was a sure bet, I'd just get it on my main. It actually dropped for Babyskully. Thank goodness! cuz I was gonna be super sad panda. At the end of the event, I got all the items! So happy panda I was.
This month's Trading post was not great in my opinion. I mean the Shark hat YES! I needed that as soon as I saw it. It's hilarious, I love it! But the rest was super meh. I bought 3 things only. The shark hat, turtle mount, and the purple sarong. I'm not a huge fan of the shoulder wraps. I don't know why. I think the fact that it does not sit flush on my undead shoulders has a lot to do with it. I wanna like it, but I just don't so I don't waste my tender on these garbage shoulders. j/k it's not garbage, its just junk. ;-P  
I already had the pirate ship from before, and I'm not a huge fan of the spring and pirate outfits. At the end of my purchases I've managed to hold onto 250 tender that I'll take to next month.
I did a craft and I was Bro the other day! made me laugh. I love these.
Alright so along with this being a fun April full of new things I got, achievements completed, and Season 4 coming out It also kinda ended with a slight reality check for me. When someone points out that I might be doing things because I like the attention really slapped me in the face. Not in a bad way really, it was just an eye opener. Like, I never play this game for attention let's just get that out there right now. I'm nice to everyone and might use too much /hug /love emotes.  It made me think, because although I might not be doing it intentionally, am I doing it for the attention subconsciously? if there's some part of me that is, I fuckin hate it and I'm gonna try to put a stop to that real quick. In the past, putting myself in my antisocial hole is really easy, I have no issues doing it. I cut everything off until I feel better. Because I play with other people now, do I really have that in me to do that again? I don't think I can completely cut off being social, but I can at least dial it back. Lay low and mind my own business. It just sparked my depression again and made me realize I need to focus on me and if that means cutting back on WoW for a bit, then I will. At least the social aspect of it. Just to prove to myself that I play this game for me and not because I crave the attention.
