    I Am A: Neutral Good Human Ranger (2nd Level)


    Ability Scores:

    Strength-11

    Dexterity-14

    Constitution-14

    Intelligence-11

    Wisdom-10

    Charisma-13


    Alignment:
    Neutral Good A neutral good character does the best that a good person can do. He is devoted to helping others. He works with kings and magistrates but does not feel beholden to them. Neutral good is the best alignment you can be because it means doing what is good without bias for or against order. However, neutral good can be a dangerous alignment because because it advances mediocrity by limiting the actions of the truly capable.


    Race:
    Humans are the most adaptable of the common races. Short generations and a penchant for migration and conquest have made them physically diverse as well. Humans are often unorthodox in their dress, sporting unusual hairstyles, fanciful clothes, tattoos, and the like.


    Class:
    Rangers are skilled stalkers and hunters who make their home in the woods. Their martial skill is nearly the equal of the fighter, but they lack the latter's dedication to the craft of fighting. Instead, the ranger focuses his skills and training on a specific enemy a type of creature he bears a vengeful grudge against and hunts above all others. Rangers often accept the role of protector, aiding those who live in or travel through the woods. His skills allow him to move quietly and stick to the shadows, especially in natural settings, and he also has special knowledge of certain types of creatures. Finally, an experienced ranger has such a tie to nature that he can actually draw on natural power to cast divine spells, much as a druid does, and like a druid he is often accompanied by animal companions. A ranger's Wisdom score should be high, as this determines the maximum spell level that he can cast.

    The family patriarch has fallen
    Well, my grandfather finally died yesterday, the 5th of November. My mom came to my work to tell me in person, and I left right away. I'm a bit relieved, since he had cancer everywhere and was in a lot of pain. It was an unsettling experience to help put clothes on the somewhat stiff body and maneuver him to the stretcher. It was also difficult to watch him being taken away. The death should be fairly easy for me to take, but I worry most about my mother and grandmother, who were unsurprisingly much closer to him than I was. I'm not really sure what else there is to say, but since this is a significant event I thought it was worth posting about.

    so here I am
    Well here I am. This is the first time i've checked LJ in quite a while and reading everybody's move in posts makes me feel a bit odd. I suppose I realize that I've sort of missed a chance to get to know some Drew people better with relative ease. It'll be harder to visit now and I've got this odd out-of-place feeling.

    I will officially be full time at Wegmans, meaning I'll get a small but much needed pay raise, as well as benefits if I choose to stay there for a while. I really don't want to stay there for long, but at least I can say I'll have my first official full time job. I know I want to get out and get a new job, but have no real ideas of what to look into. I wish I were more motivated and actually could get excited about a particular job.

    I expect to come visit Drew this friday night into saturday. I am Looking forward to it.

    Germany
    Ok so Germany has been mostly fun so far, but rather stressful in general. Not knowing any of the language really makes it difficult to get around and do stuff, which has been causing my general stress levels to rise. However, the time spent at kyle's friend Max's house was pretty fun. It was fun walking around and exploring the old part of the city, which is pretty much the only part I cared to see. I have a few pictures of the cathedral and stuff, including one of the smallest house in Bremen. Kyle and I played German sealed deck twice, but both times I got better card pools than he did. Bratwurst is all over the place like...something that's all over the place that an uncreative mind can't think up at the moment. It is yummy. Anyway it is time for sleep. perhaps there will be more updates later for those who are interested.

    cell phone
    For all those who care, I have purchased a cellular phone and my number is (908) 442-0506. It took me long enough but finally I can start making calls and taking names. :) Seriously, if you intend to reach me at this number just call me at it or leave the name you'd like to be entered as and your number in response to this post.

    In other news, work at Wegmans is pretty much full time, though I want to be paid more since I'm working there so frequently but only being paid as a part timer. The job has been more fun these past few weeks than it ever has before, but I still don't intend to keep it longer than I have to.

    Life is just flying by.

    Here's to the Night indeed...
    Panda's last post made me cry a little bit. I thought of how I won't be able to see everyone regularly after I graduate, and it made me quite sad. In happier news, I'm trying to figure out how I can reference Livejournal's "Mood" indicator in my paper about emotions. Hopefully that works out. Well, looks like I'm off to start researching for my last research paper ever for college!

    Does anyone have 6 size "C" batteries I can purchase?

    In other news, Hausaufgaben ist sehr schlect. Examen sind besser als Hausaufgaben. Now it's been a few years since i've taken German, so don't kill me for improper grammar. :) Anyway, I'm off to poison myself now for the rest of the night. Feel free to join me in whichever Riker 1st lounge I'm in.

    Today was fun!
    Today Dhoover, Kyle and I woke up early to go to the Future Sight prerelease tournament in NYC. It was quite fun and I did well, winning a handful of packs in Sealed deck. I did ok at draft and it was interesting, and afterwards we had pizza. The whole experience was mentally exhausting. Then we got back in time for Exalted, which was fun as usual. I love my ferret familiar! Dhoover, John and I concluded the day by having an enjoyable late night walk into town. And there was much rejoicing. So much fun, so little homework. Time to collapse in bed and enjoy a full night's sleep.

    Junior/Senior
    Ok, who's going to the Junior/Senior? I want to go, but I don't know who else is going.

    This ridddle was posed to me 7 years ago and I believe I solved it last night.

    "What we caught we gave away; what we did not catch, we kept."

    There was nothing more listed for the riddle, but I believe the reasonable question to ask is "What did we not catch?"

    I'm curious to see if anyone has any good answers to this.

    Remember that when we are agitated about something, it is usually the thoughts about it and not actually the thing itself which is bothering us. By changing how we think about things, we can subsequently change our emotional reactions to them. I'm not trying to claim that I am always successful with this; I am merely making a friendly reminder to people.

    Today
    Guess what I did today? Nothing! Guess what I was supposed to do today? Homework! Well I didn't do any, but had a good day anyway. I played soulcalibur 2 for a while and after a while the ice storm built up quite a bit of ice. Josh and I went trecking in the woods and brought tuna fish, a canopener, and other tasty supplies. We brought a towel to setup a little camp so we could eat our dinner without getting our hands iced from above. My dad also took us out to Wawa for subs afterwards despite the ice, which was good. Then we built a fire and Josh and I realized we were out of marshmallows, so we roasted various household foods instead, including slim jims, pepperoni, turkey, pineapple, and cheese. We watched firefly and played video games while the fire was going. It was lots of fun!

    Update, for those who care to read.
    So today's been sort of mixed. I awoke after an all-too-short sleep to go to New Hope with my brothers and my younger brother's Polish friend. We all had a fun time and I found a neat hat I want to buy. I'm thinking of going back next weekend for it. The day took a sadder turn when I went with my mom and older brother to visit my mother's side grandfather. He's dying of cancer, and we found out a few months ago. He mom doesn't expect him to live through the year. It's funny, she is so upset talking about it but all I can seem to do is remain emotionally detached. Probably I just don't know how to deal with death, as I never have had to before. I'm closer to this grandfather than my other one, but I'm not sure how I'm going to react to his eventual death. This has overrides the general happiness of the New Hope trip. Also, I find myself thinking about Helen somewhat frequently. I'm really nervous that she'll forget about me over spring break. I know she needs to make up her mind, and I suspect that after spending this week around her boyfriend she will easily pick him. I guess that's good for her though, which is a good result I suppose. Sigh. mixed feelings. Bad situation to be in. On a positive note, I got Firefly today and a pack of magic cards with two rares i didn't own.
