Since I finally got my laptop back yesterday (after 3-4 weeks), I spent a few hours sifting through all my HKO screenshots and cutting them down to size. I went through 3 rounds of separating my pictures, dude. >.> I had lots of good ones!

Then I also finally made my own link - a glass button! (If you don’t know what a glass button is, it’s the style the GMs’ blog buttons are.)

Anyway, screenie-stuffed story under the cut. (:

I’ve arrived in New York after missing the first 4 hours of HKO time!

(And Abby & Chococat are the first I see!)

Around New York

And like a real tourist, I ran around taking pictures of all the adorable sights.

Yankee Stadium! Though, I really don’t like baseball…

Yay for gigantic gold Pochis!

I even found an HKO hobo. He just doesn’t know that he’s one though. >.>

Grand Central Station, which (SHOCKINGLY) looks nothing like the one we built on our farms.

Attempting to ice skate at Rockefeller Center, whee! Okay, so not really.

Introducing… Badtz-Maru!

BADTZ WANTS ME. ;D

And the superstar himself who was in the Lincoln Center and gave me my cute snowwoman suit!

(JamJam and I are pretty awesome-looking.)

Then on the way out of London as a newly born snow bunny, I ran into Bellkana.

Right so, I even met the big guy himself. Well, two of him actually!

See, he’s in Florapolis here!

And here is Purin dressed up AS the big guy, Santa Claus himself. I feel a little cheated at this. But either way, he gave me the Spirit of Christmas necklace - thanks! <3

Hard at Work

My first snowmen!

Peekaboo!

Attack of the Flies! D:

Bunny at work. Darn strawberries took ages!

Jamx2 and I trying to find and get rid of the source of the flies. Thank goodness they gave us pesticide later on.

Random junk that I collected for the bajillion Christmas quests. Thank you to Iris who helped me out when I interrogated her for all the stuff we needed.

HOLY COW indeed.

Pets, Pets, Pets

Poop’s first words. :’)

It’s Pudding! And he’s… Itchy!

Poop should take lessons from Neverender’s dino. He got fiery skillz!

Portal Problems

For some reason, portals just did not like me during the Christmas Reunion. No joke, man.

West Dream Land portal running away from me. ):

And there goes the London portal…

Then no portals AT ALL. See? None! Zero! Zilch! NADA.

Blue-Eyed Freak: GM-Zel

Yes, he gets his own section dedicated to just him. Once in a lifetime happening. I had good times with this weirdo and still do. We’ll definitely be playing more in OB, lest I beat him up with my purse first. Luckily for him, I did not buy a microphone handheld.

When we first met and his yucky clothes that he CLAIMS he just woke up and they were stuck to him.

But we know that’s a lie. (And an excuse for his poor style.)

Conversations with the weirdo.

Scared 5 years off my life just cause I was eating his snow, pfft.

Hangin’ in London.

… No comment.

Random Screenies

The evil stuckyness of the #1!

Good times sitting here in London…

When I finally came back from the HKO auto-updater problem I had. Hooray that I made it back before the Reunion ended!

Famous for 5 seconds; that is, until she realized I was the wrong person.

Photoshoots

Favorite of my tourist shots. It reminded me of the Champs Elysees.

>:] Got all my outfits!

The End

The beginnings of the line in New York as we got ready for the end of the reunion. ):

The HKO Founders <3 (And that one loser named Zel.)

And then it started to grow…

And KABOOM! Lots of people!

Totally snuck in a shout-out to Badtz.

GO ROBOTS!

Bacon had trouble counting down, but s’all good. Good times with my fellow guildies and even though the quests were a tad HEAVY, they were fun. The Item Mall was awesome and can’t wait to see what else they add to it later. At least most of us who were on (in the guild) managed to spend all our Loyalty Points before the end. Anyways, ’til next time in OB! (:

el fin.

Oh, and here is the link + signature I made since I got my laptop back which meant Photoshop too.
