Minecraft 1.3.1 (finally!)

So at last minecraft 1.3 came out 2 days ago. This was my first minecraft update so when I woke up at 6:00 at ran over to my computer to do the update; it only took about 10 seconds. I thought because of all the new additions it would take at least 30 minutes, boy was I wrong. So the new update has brought lots of smiley faces, but it has also brought a few frownie faces. Every rose has its thorn. I decided to write down my personal  pros and cons for minecraft 1.3.1. I thought the addition of enderchests,book and quill, desert temples, jungle temples, tripwire were all fabulous. I have seen a lot more world generating bugs lately such as a hella lot more of those black spots, huge ones too. Also the ground glitching up and letting you see all the underground caves and lava(similar to the mod xray). I really like trading and emerald except for the fact that emerald is now the hardest ore to get and you can only get it in extreme hills biomes. However, it is a fun new block to use in creative, to make emerald city perhaps? Boats were bad; the tried to make boat easier to use and they sort of did, except they now go 5x slower than b4 )=. Cocoa beans are great. I really like the new creative inventory but it will take some time getting used to. Think I covered most of it all. If you have not, get the update but back up your 1.2.5 so you can still play on some servers that are undergoing construction to update to 1.3.1.

Amazon

I have been saving up for many archery supplies lately. I have become obsessed with archery this summer and have done it at various places. First when I was a C.I.T at a local summer camp, then when I went to sleep-away camp, at a friends house, you get the point. Anyways I really love amazon they have great deals off the real retail price (and I mean real deals not the crap they make up at Kohls) it is easy top use so on. So I was looking up what bow I would like to buy and I glance over at the price , in bold red letters it says YOU SAVE: $0.89. Wonderful. Another thing about amazon I wanted to put here was something funny I found on twitter. http://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-media/product-gallery/B003G4IM4S/ref=cm_ciu_pdp_images_all remember to look at all of em'.

Back from Camp!!!

Yes, I just got back from camp and this is my first blog post in over 3 weeks. For those of you who don't know the Minecraft 1.3 update will be available on August 1. You will see this message when you open Minecraft.
It will be a big update and it has been the longest inter-break between updates. The major difference is bug fixes the most in an update also so far. Some new features include: tripwires, book and quill, better boats, jungle and desert temples, villager trading, different style villages depending on the biome, adventure mode, cocoa plant, different names for different wood planks and blocks ex birch wood planks, new inventory layout on creative, string can be placed, sandstone stairs, new ore:emerald, enderchest, wood can be placed in different directions, different wood slabs, and dispensers can shoot lava or water. As you can see there is lots of reasons why to get this new update as well as a list of bug fixes that goes from here to China. Anyways, until next time!

NEW IMAC!

Yesterday, because of a good GPA and many other little things this year I did. My parents organized a surprise drop in at the Corte Madera Apple Store. At first I thought we were just visiting but I almost screamed when I found out I was getting a brand new IMac 27". I am typing this post up right now with my new wireless keyboard and it rocks! The display is kind of scary; its that good. If you are thinking about getting a new computer I would highly recommend this regardless of the money.
