A very SAD day

A week ago, my personal computer crashed, and I got news today from data recovery service, the slicer said that they weren't able to recover any data from my equiptment... gone is my giga byte worth of captured moments in the Galaxies: high resolution still images and movies. Also lost my travle photos from all around the planet Earth...
/cry

This has been a very rough month for me: broke my hand and now lost my most treasured moments in the Galaxies... despite the good things happened to me: fall in love with a beautiful Earth gal and won 1st places in a competition.
/sigh

Auto-loomed Orange Rug


Finally, I managed to get a hold of one piece of the Orange Rug Adhesive last night - and here it is, in all it's glory. On a side note, finally I can get rid of the auto-loom kit in my backpack...it's been there for a looong time.

Iron Chef of the Galaxies


I had to give it to him, his brandy and Ahrisa are actually quite good. Good work chef!

My first 10 million credits


It's said the 1st million credits are the hardest, it's absolutely true... life was really harsh when I was on Tatooine, even when I became a TKA, it was still hard work on Dantooine, I was a frequent-cloner, but even that I got no discount from the clone center. Life started to get better when I accept a big fat contract to supply Rancor meat, I made a few million credits, even spent 4.5 million bought myself an AV21. Now, life is really getting better and better, look at my bank balance.... :) and a few months ago I was just a poor slob on the backwater planet of Tatooine...what a change.

It's Déjà Vu all over again...


The village was attacked again and now lay in ruin. These Sith cowards! We'll have to do rebuild all over again... /sigh


A few villagers were taken hostage during the Sith raid, it's up to me to find them... here's one of them.


I got all the villagers back... all in a days work. My hand now really starts to hurt, medic!

Another treasure hunt and the last!


Found another buried treasure, I was really disappointed.... @#$%... no more treasure hunt for me from now on.

Close encounter of the second kind


Run into some Stormies on Dantooine, so I greeted them with some knuckle sandwich.

Ouch! My hand.

I went back to see the med droid today, it removed the pins from my hand, and left 3 big holes. The pin removal was not as painful as as I'd imagined, but was quite uncomfortable... after the droid pulled out the pins, I suddenlly felt vey drained and tired, and had sweat on my forehead... I was barelly able to get back into my speeder. I was so drained that I had to sit there for a few minutes to gether some strength... ouch!

Ok ,so I asked the Master Doctor how did he put the pins into my hand. It was drilled into my flesh and bones. The pins have a sharp end, and shaped like drill bit, I was even told the pin tips are Coruscant Diamond coated to make it stronger and harder.

Hmmm, I wonder if the doctor got his drill from the Galactic Home Depot...? One of my buddy joked that the doctor used nail gun and shot the pins into my hand.... he's not so far off... It makes my hand throb just think about it...

Interesting Janta knife


We hit quite a few Jantas, they sure make crappy weapons, but occassionally I can also find a few good ones like this - this particular one not only does DOT(Damage Over Time), but it does two types of DOT! I have to say I'm pretty impressed.

Hunting with buddy


Bumped into my buddy Chiv in the Mining Outpost on the Dantooine, so we hit up and went to a huting trip, boy we had some good time, and we drank plenty of brandy.

Darkside is not stronger


Run in with a Dark Adept - Darkside is not stronger...

Noisy neighbours


The Empire seems to think they can place their Storm Trooper training camp anywhere they like...right next to my house and in front of my buddy's house. If I let them stay as it is, it will definitely devalue my house... not a chance...someone's gotta to teach them a lesson!

Change profession again - Pistoleer

Well, I haven't been exactly slaking off lately... just busy training in the ranged weapon skills. Last night, I finally made it to the Novice Pistoleer! /cheer

So far I've been using FWG5 pistol, it does 200+ damages with a speed of 2.0, I also bought a Republic Blaster, but the damage and speed are not as good as the FWG5. Some other goodies I have like Launcher Pistol, Geo Blaster etc. I can't use them yet, bummer...

Picking a fight with Nightsister Spell Weavers


Since I had so much fun fighting yestreday, so I thought I'll fight a bit more. Despite the condition of my hand, I picked fight with Nightsisters, especially their Spell Weavers, they are TOUGH, I managed to kill off couple of those, but got myself killed couple of times as well, guess we're even today.

Try to have some quiet down time


While roaming on Endor trying to find a quiet place to stay for a few days to recover my hand injury, I run into a squad of Storm Troopers, I need their help to get to my next promotion...


In the end they all agreed to chip in to help, albeit a lil reluctantly... The only good Storm Troopers are dead Storm Troopers, they're all good Storm Troopers....


I really had fun with the Storm Troopers, so instead of finding a quiet place, I actually went looking for trouble. I always wanted a set of armor from the Black Sun, so I went to look for them, but, after spent whole day fighting them I didn't get even a single piece of their armor. However, I did get a packet of Liquid Alum Gel and a Rebreather, kinda neat. Guess I'll have to come more often.

The state of hand injury


Went to rebel base to see my doctor today. The bandage has been removed, however, the pins in my hand will have remain there for another couple of weeks, look at those shinny metal pins, I bet they're made from the finest Corellia alloy. I wonder how the doctor put them in my hand.... then again, maybe I don't really want to know...

My very own personal Y-Wing


Woohoo! Now I can pilot Y-Wing!


Got my hands on a shinny new Y-Wing, oh baby...


Here she is, ready for outfitting with engine, armors, weapons etc. What a beauty. She's even got turret gun, and I can bring a gunner with me to the battle, awesome!

Jump to Lightspeed!


Now that JTL program is launched, I can reveal my involvement during it's secret testing stage. Yes, that me, the program is so secret, everyone has to disguise and use a different identity to avoid Imperial spys and suspicion. Look at me, not bad job at all.


I borrowed a Z95 Headhunter.


Look at it, isn't she pretty.


My first kill. Look out everyone, new flyboy in town!


I wished my R2 was there - at least he can translate my conversation with a binary load lifter.... I think the binary load lifter just mocked me... but I don't know for sure...


Haha, what a funny guy Captain Kreezo! Where did they find him?


He likes my sense of humor too, we had a good laugh.


Kewl, finally made some progress on my training...


Some of the salvaged items after the battle in space.

Aurilia Village: 1, Sith: 0


Fellow students gethered around in the village center preparing for the Sith attack. Some unusual quiet time before the storm...


The attack was sudden, but we all ready for them. This unlucky Sith Thug found himself surrounded by many students. Surprise!


We fought fiercely and cohesively. The battle moved from village center to the outskirt of the village.


After many Sith attacks, we finally did it. We have defeated the Sith force.... for now. But, I don't have the luxury of R&R, I need to lick my wound and continue my training.

Attack of the Sith


So I failed to talk the rebel doctor into graft a vibro knuckler onto my right hand. After surgery I spent some down time around Coronet to recover, and bumped into the mysterious old man again. He carried an urget personal message from Captain Sarguillo of the Village "...help us Enahs, you're our only hope...".


The village is under attack again! Direct attack this time. Dispite my hand injury, I reported to Captain Sraguillo immediately.


No sooner than I settling in my quarters, the Sith attacked, there're just so many of them. Blaster shots, blades, blood and limbs of the Sith and fellow students are all around us. May the Force be with us today. Many of my fellow students have fallen, but the rest of us held the defence and eliminated the Sith force to the last one. The village survived another day. However, my hand is now hurting badly, I must've bursted my wound on my hand.

Training accident

Although I've reached the status of a Teräs Käsi Master, but I still train regularly at the Coronet TKA dojo to keep my skills sharp. Two days ago, when I was practicing breaking for an upcoming competition, I accidentally broke my right hand, the "Fifth Metacarpal" to be exact. /ouch

Here's a diagram of the bones in a hand.

The fracture is usually caused by punching something harder than the hand, such as a wall or another being's head. The end of the metacarpal bone takes the brunt of the impact, which usually breaks through the narrowest area near the end (the "neck"), and bends down toward the palm.

I already have a surgery procedure scheduled in a couple of days in a rebel medical center. Maybe I can talk them into permentently graft a vibro knuckler onto my right hand....? Anyways, I guess I'll be out of the action for a while.
