Minecraft Wolves

So, on minecraft I have two wolves named Seras (female name) and Aebh. (female name). And they just had a puppy. Sooo... yeah! Anyway, his name is Lucius, and his collar is yellow. They actually had three puppies, but the first two drowned. I made a memorial for the first one, but after the second one I figured if I made a memorial for every wolf that died, I'd run out of cobblestone. I did make one for Lorcan, though. They're all out in my tree farm.
   Lucius seems intent on dying. I've saved him from drowning twice, and once from falling off a cliff. I guess that's what comes from living on a cliff. So I'm confining myself and the wolves to the house until he grows up, and has enough sense not to go jumping off high places and into water. Wolves are fun, no matter how sad it can be when they die. They're adorable, and they attack anyone who attacks you, or who you attack. Lorcan saved me from two skeletons, and killed two cows and a sheep for me! He was an awesome dog.

Minecraft (AGAIN)

Did I mention how much fun Minecraft is? Now on my server called "Svendoolia" I have that cliff-house, like I said, but I added a FARM to the bridge connecting the three rooms. I also have a level 30 enchantment on my diamond sword, (looting III and sharpness IV!) and a dog named Seras! I used to have a dog named Lorcan, but he fell from a high place... that was sad. Next I want to domesticate a wolf and name her Aebh. Wanna know a secret? I MADE UP THAT NAME. I googled it, it doesn't exist. So I got to it first. It's pronounced "Ave".

Okay, so Minecraft is SO FUN! I have one singelplayer world I love called "Svendoolia" (guess where I got the name?)  where I live in the side of a cliff in this sort of "bowl" around a lake, and I am now also on L's server (which is famous for being REALLY awesome and popular) and I have a semi-temporary home in an igloo next to a bunch of castles. That's not the only reason I'm posting, though; I also want to share with you a dream I had and promptly wrote down. Enjoy.
(Small details are changed, but nothing huge; just that in the dream I didn't actually know who the girl was. She was just a girl.)

The Dream.

I was a young girl of about ten years old, living in a quaint little village surrounded by forest. I had quite the crush on the young boy who lived next to me, but I couldn’t talk to him because the baker’s daughter, a girl of about my age, was also smitten with him and wouldn’t let anyone near him. Sad and dejected, I decided there was nothing to do but run away.

               

                In the middle of the night I crept out of my house and started walking in no particular direction. Trudging through piles of dead fall foliage and hopping over rocks and logs, I wondered whether anyone was searching for me yet, and if my mother would miss me when I was gone. I didn’t get very far, though. For when I reached the short slope that separated the village from the forest, that’s when I saw it. A body, or rather two bodies, a man and his horse, the reins still in his hands. They were both decaying and covered in flies. The horse was a handsome white, and the man dressed for a journey in rugged clothes and leather shoulder-plates. I looked up and saw a figure in a black, hooded cloak, holding a scythe in his bony hands. He looked straight at me. Or, I think he did; he didn’t have much in the way of facial features, just a black void. He lifted a finger to where his mouth ought to be in a shushing motion, and then he left. I’m not sure if he walked away or just disappeared, he was just… gone. I stood in silence for a moment. And then I screamed.

                “Everyone!” I yelled at the top of my voice, trying to gather the villagers. “Everyone, there’s a body over here!” That got everyone out of their beds.

                By dawn, almost the entire village was swarming around the site. Some people were there to figure out things about the body, like how he died and who he was, and some were just curious. Mothers hid their children’s eyes as they themselves looked on unflinching. The small, three-person law enforcement team that the village prided itself on was walking about the site, taking notes and asking questions. I overheard them talking about the body. Apparently it was a man from the village who nobody liked, but no one knew what he was doing when he died. And nobody knew how he died, either. He was just… dead. And that’s when it happened.

                Curiosity got the better of me and I inched closer to get a better look. And the corpse moved. Everyone looked on, mouths agape as the corpse opened its mouth into a crooked smile, and its eyes moved slowly around to face me. I froze in place, too scared to do anything, as the dead man said to me;

                “Be sure to empty your soul before your journey”. And then he died for the last time.

Another thing to remember about Minecraft: If you find a really awesome cave with lots of coal and iron in it, and you collect all you need, don't get greedy: Go back, put it all in a chest, and come back another day. Otherwise, you are almost guaranteed to die and lose it all.

Celtic Woman, Minecraft, and Computers

Sooo, I went to a Celtic woman concert the other day. It was CRAZY awesome! There were smoke effects and light effects and everything, and they played ALL the best songs, Lisa Lambe was phenomenal, and they have the BEST DRUMMER EVER. His name is Ray Fean. He is epic.
   So that was awesome. It was worth it to wait four months!
In completely different news, a few days ago I started plating Minecraft. And unlike the first time I tried playing, when I loved it, this time it was awesome! I was so hooked, that two days later mom and dad bought me my own account and a new computer to play on. Do I have the coolest parents or what?
   Just so you know, though, it wasn't a spur-of-the moment, "Hey, let's buy a new computer for the heck of it!" kind of thing. I've needed a new one for a while now. The old one was a dinosaur; the moniter was about a foot and a half thick, no joke, and it literally took about 30 seconds to load EVERY TIME YOU CLICKED SOMETHING. So I have a new monitor, a new computer, a new keyboard, a new mouse, and even new speakers! (the old ones didn't work at all) and I CAN'T BELIEVE HOW FAST IT IS!!!!!!! What was life like before this computer?
   Anyway, Minecraft: Pretty awesome. I've been playing on peaceful so far, but I recently upgraded to easy, and I'm doing okay. I've died a few times, but hey, what're you gonna do?
   Things I've learned so far?

1. Always have a pick and a shovel in your inventory. Those are the most useful tools.
2. You can never have too much of anything, as long as you have the storage space.
3. Don't keep too much of your stuff in your inventory. Chests are your friends.
4. As soon as you make a home, make sure to sleep in a bed there that night. That way you'll respawn there when you die.
5. Whenever you make a house, built a huge structure next to it and light it up with torches and jack o' lanterns. That way you'll never lose it.
6. Love clay. Embrace it. It is one of the most readily available building materials, and you're guaranteed a boatload of it out of just one vein. Sometimes you even get multiple stacks.

Sooo... that's what I've learned in my three days of playing Minecraft. And also that Minecraft is crazy fun.

Ciao!
