Choose The Gender Of My Next Wizard!

Hello Wizards,

I've been thinking about having a new blog project for Wizard101. Today, I decided to ask my Twitter friends to pick the gender of my next wizard in a new Poll. A little bit of a background: So far I have about 15 wizards and pirates - all of them are boys. I didn't want to create a new wizard without asking the community what gender my next wizard should be. This will be a fun blogging project! If you would like to vote, you can click anywhere on the image below. Boy or Girl? You have until tomorrow, 4:00 P.M. CST to vote.

Pirate101 NXP Recap (August 2016)

Ahoy Pirates!

I know, I know, I need to make blog posts that have nothing to do with events again. Thank you all for attending Autumn Walker's NXP Event today. It was a lot of fun and I'm glad we could bring the Pirate101 community together again. :) Well I don't think it was too much fun for Martin Chambers....

All of us made a great team! I actually nautical leveled from 64 to 69 today! I hope all of you had as much fun as I did defeat Martin in Valencia Part 2. I don't think he likes us much. I think Taco might have warned him, but that warning wasn't enough. We pirates are TOUGH. :D Let's prepare for the next Pirate101 event. Until then, I need to start making more Pirate101 posts... Hmmm, I'll have to think about which post to publish first over the weekend. Until next time, I'll see you around the skyways. :D

Fireworks, Krakens, Dryads, etc. I feel bad for Martin... NOT! :P

Twizards Anti-Bullying Movement on Twitter

Hi there,

I've noticed a huge increase in bullying this year on Twitter. I've been bullied and I've noticed that others have been bullied too. I'm not longer going to sit by and allow this to happen to anyone else. I will not call bullying, drama when everyone knows it's bullying. I've decided to stand up against it by changing both of my Twitter Profile Pictures to an anti-bullying picture. If you're reading this, I urge you to do the same to let everyone know that we're against this bullying that has occurred in the community lately. We can also let those who are being cyberbullied or bullied in real life that we're with them. You can change your profile picture for a day, or however long you would like.

My Souvenir

Hi there!

I hope you had a nice weekend. I can't believe it's already Sunday! This week flew by! It felt like my Birthday was just yesterday. Speaking of my Birthday, I wanted to make a post explaining the Birthday cake that my mom made for me as a surprise on my Birthday.

As a reminder, I'm 23 years old. This cake was made for me as a surprise because they know how much Wizard101 has changed my life. There's nothing wrong with saying that a game like Wizard101 (many might consider a kids game) changed my life. There are many things that change the direction of somebody's life. Sometimes that direction could be in the wrong turn due to something bad (you know what I mean). Other times, something good could change somebody's life. Wizard101 was something that did.

I had severe Anxiety and Depression back when I started Wizard101. In 2008 I lost my Grandmother from Cancer. A few short weeks later I lost one of my favorite Aunts from heart issues & high blood pressure. I was very sad at the time and school was not helping the issues I was going through. In 2009, a year after a lot of issues that I had, I decided to start playing Wizard101. This game was a life changer in many ways because I had many friends (including the community later) help me through those issues and other issues that I had during my time in Wizard101. I still play Wizard101 because I still LOVE it and I still LOVE the community!

I'll say this again. That cake could have been anything else. One great example is that this cake is like a souvenir. If you've ever have traveled somewhere, you've most likely bought a souvenir to remember you trip. This cake is my souvenir because it was a long road to where I wanted to be in life. I finally made it to my destination and my souvenir is this cake as a reminder that I'm happy where I am and where I will be. No matter how tough the road was, I found something that made me happy. There's something that makes you happy too. It could be, or might not be Wizard101. Find that something that makes you happy. I never gave up searching, and neither should you.
