[Mog Monday] Faol's Green & Bronze Blademaster

Patch 10.2.5

I've been playing my alts quite a bit in Dragonflight and I put together a cute mog for my Draenei Rogue. I especially like it because the bronze parts of the gear match the draenei character customization options at the barber shop for the jewelry on the hair and tail accessories. Check her out!

Music Downloads Update

Patch 10.1.5

It's been a process over the years finding a "safe" storage website to host my parodies so that they are readily available for anyone to download at no cost to either you or me. Purevolume stopped working as a music host long ago, and ever since then there haven't been many free options that didn't come with user download limits. Years passed and I eventually stopped looking for a host altogether. I assumed if someone liked the song enough, they'd just use a random YouTube to mp3 converter or something like that. 😂

Thing is, even to this day I still get comments (and even good old email!) about some of my parody videos asking where to download the music. So, I resurrected two of my old file sharing accounts, Dropbox.com and Box.com to see if anything has changed regarding storage and sharing limits. The storage limits are vastly increased since the last time I checked those sites, so I decided to just throw my Patreon album up on both of them and update this blog so there's a centralized place to find at least a few of my "official" tracks.

I present to you my new Music downloads page:

MUSIC

Not every song I've ever done is up for download (yet?), but if this works out I'll take the time to post more as I find them. (That's another issue I've been dealing with: locating all of the original files.) 😅 So, if you try to download a track or the .zip of the album and you run into any issues, please don't hesitate to let me know by tweeting at me or @mentioning me in my Discord server because I'd appreciate it a LOT!

UPDATED: [Mog Monday] Isolte's Favorite Lambent Scale Mail

Patch 10.1.5

It has been a ridiculously long time since I posted this old "Mog Monday" article outlining my favorite shaman transmog. So, I thought it was about time I posted an update because some of the major pieces (and their sources) have naturally changed with the times. XD

Exploding Map

I’ve always disliked open-world PVP in games, so in #Warcraft I usually have War Mode turned off. But when the Wild Arcana world quest pops up in the Cobalt Assembly in Azure Span, I’ll go do that one because you can complete it pretty quickly without even touching another player.

Burning Crusade Classic

Isolte and Nuku enjoying a drink after a decent meal at World's End tavern in Shattrath.

Back when WoW Classic released in 2019, I rolled a dwarf Paladin and named her "Isolte." I felt like I was betraying my Draenei Shaman main by giving her name to a totally different character, but even though I had hope for it, I honestly did not believe that Blizzard would expand on Classic with a classic version of The Burning Crusade. So, I ended up leveling a Paladin named Isolte on Atiesh (PvE) up to 36 and then leveled another Paladin on Fairbanks (PvP) to 34. (I switched to Fairbanks because my partner's cousins and my old guildmates stubbornly decided to roll on a PvP server as usual per every expansion they come back to play for the first few months and then quit again. 😒 But of course my partner and I wanted a chance to play with them... Even though this scenario never pans out well for me and my enjoyment of the game, and I despise that I keep letting it happen expansion after expansion just for the sake of pleasing my partner and playing with "people I know". But aaaannywaaay...) I ended up quitting Classic because I basically had no love for my Paladin(s), playing on a PvP server did not appeal to me at all, and playing without my partner on a PvE server while he was on another was just depressing. But I still held onto hope that Blizzard would plan on a TBC Classic so that I could potentially "be myself" someday and was extremely overjoyed when they announced it in February 2021 at BlizzConline.

I'm not dead + new mount!

Story of my life not updating this blog but once every other year or so. 😅 Just checking in again to say I'm still alive. And I'm so happy I got the [Pristine Cloud Serpent Scale] for the [Rajani Warserpent] today!

Quick Update

Another long overdue but quick update!

I've been playing WoW Classic (Server: Atiesh (US) Class: Paladin) and loving it!
Played through the 8.2.5 WoW update and feel mostly positive about it. 😅
I am going to BlizzCon next month November 1-2, 2019.
I'm going to the CalCap Airshow this Saturday, October 5.
I've updated my Minecraft server to 1.14.4 and will reopen it (whitelisted) in a couple days.
Mental and physical health still on the decline but I'm still alive, so yay!
Cola doggy is still awesome and vet says he's in great health, just more bumpy and worty. 😂
Relationship with Nukufox is steady as she goes. (Technically just had our 13th YEAR anniversary last week despite all the bumps and ~~huge~~ pitfalls along the way.)
Second Life and 3D modeling has taken a back seat to pretty much everything else, but I did make this cool flyer and poster for my friends who got it printed to give out at the very last BronyCon this year:

SL Pony Community 2019

And that's it for now. See you guys next year! I was going to say, "Just kidding!" but let's be honest here. I haven't kept this blog going consistently at all, and I recently only came back because the Photobucket watermarks and blurring of my website images got on my nerves enough for me to come back over and move all of the images to Imgur to remove the watermarks. 😂 So, I'll see you when I see you.

I'm back in the world....

Just thought I'd update this long dead blog to say that I'm back, playing WoW again. I reactivated my subscription and bought Legion about a month ago now and loving it more than I thought I would. I transferred my main off of Wyrmrest Accord back to where she was born (Daggerspine US-PVP) so I could join my mate and his guild, since he started playing WoW again for months before finally convincing me to come back! 😆

And it's hilarious too because for months @Nukufox has been hoping to get that [Torn Invitation] from the Nightfallen Emissary quests or the Withered Training and I got lucky and picked it up after only doing the Withered Training 3 times total. So yay, new mount for me!

As far as whether or not I'm back-back... like... if I'm gonna sing again or vlog on YouTube, that's still kinda up in the air for me. I haven't been smacked with inspiration lately, but I can definitely sense that my muse is slowly returning. 😊

Resurrecting the Blog?

Wow, I looked at the last post and think, "It looks like she asked for money and ran away." D: I guess I basically did do that. I got the help I needed to move, and I am so grateful! I'm just sorry to say that it was only a financially beneficial move... Not all that beneficial for me mentally.

It has been years since I posted any new music and only a few very un-produced vlogs. I'm sorry that I haven't been well enough to even write blog posts. I am at a point where I don't have any good news, so I'd just rather stay quiet than fill your feeds with any negative energy. I'm only here now because I needed a place to sort of reconnect. I've been losing focus of my goals and I'm trying to find them again because I don't even know what they are anymore.

Scary But Necessary Life Changes

I'm raising money to move the heck out of San Jose to a much cheaper place. If you wish to help me secure my new life but cannot donate through GoFundMe since they don't accept PayPal, my Streamtip is always open even when I'm offline on Twitch: http://streamtip.com/t/isolte

Thank yoooooouuu!!

Starting A Dream Journal?

For the majority of my sleeping life, I have had incredibly vivid dreams ever since I can remember. I've always wanted to start a dream journal, but I've always seemed to have lost the energy to write as soon as I got out of bed or I just simply didn't have the time. When I was in college, I had a Psychology assignment to log my dreams (if any) every day for an entire week. After that project, the desire to start a dream journal really kicked in, but it just never stuck. I have a physical notebook that is a sort of diary but I rarely write in it; it has entries that are weeks, months, and even a year in between and a handful of them mention parts of dreams I had.

Well, anyway, I said all that because I don't know if this will become a regular thing on this blog. It is a pretty personal topic, but I had a dream last night that I feel comfortable sharing. I am no writer, but maybe sharing the details of my dreams will help me to become a better one?
