It has been a frustrating few days of not being able to play HKO. I tried calling my ISP for help but they were unable to resolve it.

I then came across a post by whitensilver on the forums saying that she was able to get past it with a manual patch with the help of her friend. I then bumped into Noliai in her chatroom and she too saw the post and so we decided to try it out.

OMG, after transfering about 15 or more files, I finally managed to get past the autoupdate! However, I kept getting the disconnecting from server msg. We decided to take a rest as many others were having trouble logging on too … I went to take a shower and then came back to try again.

With Noliai and Ripplecloud encouraging me, I finally managed to get in! WOOHOO!!

Guess who stopped by? GM Calealen! There’s Noliai .. we were waiting for ripplecloud to show up.

Finally ripplecloud found her way to us!

And then Starlight joined in on the fun. I missed the Harbor, it has been way too long since CB!

I stayed around chatting with Noliai and Ripplecloud for awhile and then told them I better start on my quests because I was feeling a little naked

So they gave me stuff! Check out my new pants, shirt and wand! Hehe, thanks gals!

Wasn’t able to do much b4 we were all kicked out because they needed to reset the servers. We are now hanging out in the chatroom. Come on in!

I’m so happy to be playing HKO! If u guys see me ingame, pls say hi!

Having trouble with the autoupdate, I get this annoying error.

But I’m not the only one, so hopefully they will get it fixed ASAP.

In the mean time, I’m hanging out at Noliai’s chat room. Stop by if u are unable to play HKO too. Ripplecloud, tidesong, Noliai, etc are there keeping me company!

Click there or here to download the game. Its a torrent, so PLEASE SEED!!

I wasn’t a happy camper when I found out we would only be able to play the game on 9 Oct @ 10am where I live

Here’s more from my LTS collection.

Lala was a bday gift from my sis and I got Kiki on ebay! He was really expensive after shipping and everything but I could not find him anywhere else. What fun is one without the other?

They are now sitting on top of my shelves, all nicely wrapped. 

Haha, FB is closer everyday! So while waiting, here’s another of my little ”passing time” project.

I started with this image that I found here. I like that font so I decided to make my name using it.

Haha, can u tell how i got the “f” and “7″?

After that got done, it looked too lonely, where’s Kiki and Lala? So …..

Which lead to a new banner ….

That’s all folks!

Woohoo! Its Oct and only a few more days till FB. GM Neverender has posted more screenshots of HKO, go check them out! GM Abby is part of the shots too!!

*WARNING* Pls be VERY careful when meeting online friends in person, if u have to meet, choose a crowded place and if possible, bring a friend along … oh, and tell someone where u are going and what time u will be home *WARNING*

I first got to know Nimeesha when she left a comment on my blog and that began an internet friendship. We started by email but soon we were chatting via instant messenging where we talked about everything LTS. She has been looking for the LTS wedding plush set that she has seen on a tv serial which I myself have not seen

About a week after we got to know each other, there was a listing of a wedding plush on ebay which I had never seen b4. I quickly messaged her online and gave her the link. OMG, that was the ones that she saw! I could practically hear her screaming .. haha. Unfortunately, the dolls were quite exp and she had just spent alot going to one of the places I had recommended her to. Moreover, she was going to Japan in Nov so she was thinking of trying to find it there, maybe it would be cheaper.

So off to bed she went while I continued surfing the net. Just as I was about to go to sleep that nite, I checked my email and there was an email asking for my help. I opened the email and found out it was actually Nimeesha’s bf! In the email, he said that she was very excited when she saw the dolls and was wondering if I could sent him the link so that he could buy it for her.

AWWWW …. SO SWEET!!!!

In the end, her bf and I instigated a plan to surprise Nimeesha. I bought the dolls as her bf was unable to. However, plans went down the drain when Nimeesha spotted my text/sms on her bf’s phone. Sigh …. it was fun while it lasted (for less then 12hrs … haha) Everything was out in the open ….. “sneaky … sneaky” that was what she called me

The dolls finally arrived and we arranged a meet up ….. here are some pics I took of her dolls

The western wedding set …. Umm, incase ppl are wondering, I just think of them as the flower girl and the ring bearer

The traditional Chinese wedding outfit.

Aren’t they cute?? Now I am thinking whether I should get them for myself too!! If only they weren’t so exp, if only I had such a sweet bf, if only …. haha,

We met up near my hse, which was not that far from her place (we live a train stop from each other) and that was when she passed me a cup that she bought for me too! She was showing me pics of stuff she had recently bought when I saw a cup that I had been eyeing/searching for the longest time. So when she saw another cup at the place where she first bought it, she called me to see if I still wanted it.

OF COURSE!!!

Even the box that it came in is adorable.

I LOVE the metal tin!

Here’s the cup! This is going to my “keep” items

Her bf was there for the meetup and he gave me a treat as thanks for helping him, totally not required as it was nice to see the smile on my friend’s face when she finally got her hands on the plushies.

We chatted for more than an hr but had to call it a day as both of us wanted to rush home to catch the F1 finals on tv … haha, yes, we both love F1 and she was really envious when I told her I watched the qualifying race live! We even talked about going to the race together next year

Hope we get to meet again …. oh, she is also a Founder! Hehe, I told her all about HKO and asked her to sign up for it
