Monster Hunter: World curtains closed–then opened again

One final boss. One last Elder Dragon to take on before closing the books. This was it. This was what I had been training for all my life. ::cue Rocky training montage:: Of course, by training, I mean mostly grinding out the other Elder Dragons and getting my gems, yo! I’m all about the gems.… Continue Reading

Monster Hunter: World and the beginning of the end

This week in Monster Hunter: World had me cleaning up house. It’s funny because it mimics how I work in the real world. I ‘grind’ before doing the real work (mostly by thinking hard about things) so it seems as if I make my decisions suddenly and rashly, but in reality, I’ve given it a… Continue Reading

Spinning my Charge Blade in Monster Hunter: World

I’m still recovering from the sickness, and it’s been slow-going. It’s frustrating because I know that I have to take it easy in order to get better, but I’m impatient for it to just be done already.

Today (Sunday), I woke up feeling a bit better, and I’m hoping it means that I’m on the tail end of this thing, or at least the legs… Continue Reading

Monster Hunter: World griiiiiiiiiind

I know that sounds counterintuitive, but I get that way when I start feeling overwhelmed. It’s not an uncommon phenomenon,… Continue Reading

General Housekeeping and ginger lemon honey tea

Hello. I am still sick with sinus issues, so I will not be posting anything of substance today. In addition, I was between phones late last week, which is why I didn’t post anything on Friday*. I’m thinking of doing an overhaul to my website in general, but it’s in the very nascent stages. Just… Continue Reading
