5 Pink Haired Ladies

Pink is my least favorite color. Ever. However, there are beautiful piles of pixels in games who deserve to be spotlighted for how they pull off the color pink. Some deadly, some cute, and some just plain stunning.. here are five ladies of the gaming world who can wear pink at any time they damn well please! These are in no particular order.

1. Lightning & Serah - Final Fantasy XIII

I totally understand why Snow was so hellbent on saving Serah. Girl is HOT. All jokes aside though, Serah is also sweet, and the more helpless of the two sisters. She's the one being saved, rather then doing the saving. The few cut scenes you do get of her in the game really made me wish there was more of her, and a part of me just really likes her. I find her to be absolutely adorable, and she compliments Lightning's personality perfectly, being everything that Lightning is not.

Lightning on the other hand, is quite the opposite of her sister, but equally as hot. Lightning is one of the main protagonists of FFXIII, and you get a lot of character development on her throughout the game. She kicks ass, and looks good doing it. Her moves in battle are quick, sexy, and everybody loves a girl who can take care of herself right? Lightning will need no saving, as she's tough in both battle and in mind. Lightning may seem bitter, and hardened, but her dedication to her mission and friends is something that makes her all the more desirable. 

2. Myuria Tionysus - Star Ocean: The Last Hope

I'm surprised that the enemies aren't dazed and intoxicated by her beautiful flowing hair, among other things. Myuria is so much more then that however, and she's one of my favorite characters from Star Ocean. Not only beautiful, she's an irreplaceable part of your party, as her magical abilities and summoning is incredible useful... and deadly. 

Like a lot of beautiful women in video games, Myuria seems mysterious, flirty, but also a tough character to open up to. Fear not though, as Myuria is a very well rounded character with very human like characteristics and a very heartbreaking back story. Oh, I've always had a thing for elves, so add more points for those sexy ears too! 

3. Presea Combatir - Tales of Symphonia 

Ah, Presea. Although 12 in terms of appearance, there is much more to Presea that meets the eye, but I won't spoil that for those of you who have never played Tales of Symphonia. ;) Being that Tales of Symphonia is my favorite game of all time, I'm a little biased when I say that I absolutely love Presea. 

Presea's story is a complicated one, and absolutely breaks my heart. I love Presea more for her incredibly complex story and how she plays into the game more then I do her looks, but that doesn't change the fact that she rocks the pink hair! A tiny 12 year old child wielding a gigantic axe is badass, wouldn't you agree? Also, the custom outfits you can get in the game for her are all flippin' adorable and make you go, "awwww!" 

4. Estellise Sidos Heurassein - Tales of Vesperia

Try saying her full name 5 times fast! 

Estellise (or Estelle for short) is decked out head to toe in pink, but I love her for it! 

Estelle is a young noblewomen, a Princess in fact, who has never seen the outside world before she sets out on an adventure with the main protagonist, Yuri. As you can imagine, this makes for hilarious dialogue on her part, and her innocence makes you shake your head, but laugh at the same time.  

Estelle is reserved, compassionate, caring, and her unique sense of humor and words of wisdom makes me really love Estelle as a character. Not to mention that her place in your party is vital, as she's your white mage and one of the main players in the game. A damsel in distress at some points, a great friend and party member at others, Estelle makes this list, easily. 

5. Leslie Ferrarti - Arc Rise Fantasia

Leslie is one of the only characters on this list who is only here strictly for her mannerisms and looks, as everything else about her is painfully average. Leslie is the typical flirty and seductive type. She know she is good looking, and she uses that to her advantage, seducing men all the like. It suits her character perfectly, and I can't imagine Leslie covering up, as she just wouldn't be Leslie! As for what else she brings to the table, she's a character that frustrates me, but in a tragically good way. Because of Leslie's mission, she is constantly torn between sides, and after betraying you, she'll turn around and try to make it up to you. 

Part of me is constantly frustrated that she won't pick a side, but another part of me misses her meddling when she's not around! Leslie is talented with her hands (as one can imagine) and wields her gun in a deadly, fast, and sexy fashion. Her flirtatious ways with your male party members can also be comical, and deep down she is determined, despite her exterior.

There you have it! Five ladies from games that I have quite enjoyed. As I said, completely random, and there are definitely more ladies out there who deserve some credit! I want to do more lists like these, so please leave suggestions in the comments! I hope that you have enjoyed this list. 

Some Old Creative Writing.

I have a binder of some old creative writing from high school I dug up. Although the language is not as colorful as some may hope, I still think they are decent pieces for the age I did them. I've always loved to write, but stopped after school, as there was no real "reason" to do them, and I couldn't find any inspiration. I thought I'd share a few. Very slight changes are made from the original pieces, and proper spacing may not be correct. Blogspot doesn't allow indenting. I'll be showing the first piece in this blog post.

REFERENCE

A girl freezes in a telephone booth,

In her daughty coat she hides

A face all smeared

In tears and lipstick.

She breathes on her thin palms,

Her fingers are icy. She wears earrings.

She'll have to go home alone, alone,

Along the icy street.

First ice. It is the first time.

The first ice of telephone phrases.

Frozen tears glitter on her cheeks,

The first ice of human hurt.

Our writing had to include various parts, and we were to use our imagination. 
It also had to be written in the third person view. This is my piece:

-----

Darkness was nearing the city. Clouds started to blot out the sun; and all that could be heard was the rustling of trees. The temperature was dropping at an alarming rate as a young girl rose off of the park bench. She tied up the front of her over overcoat and bunched the coat in tight to her cold body, hoping to gain warmth. Her heart felt colder then her body, however, because he never showed. That small flame of desire seemed to be snuffed out by a sense of great disappointment. 

The tree where their initials were carved, and the path on which she walks now.. she has walked with him many times before. The absence of his warmth, and love, made the young woman feel empty, and alone. This is something she hasn't had to feel in quite some time, why didn't he show?

All was silent, with the exception of her black stilettos tapping against the pavement. The moon had the city in it's slumber, or so it seemed. The silence was broken when a ringing sound was heard from afar. The young woman looked startled, but walked closer, as the ringing got louder.

The caller I.D. read a familiar number that made every hair on her neck stand on end, as her mouth opened in awe. It couldn't be true, could it? He would never leave the young woman alone, he just wouldn't! A blood stained hand peering out of the bushes made her eyes water. The crescent shaped scar on the left hand made the horror a reality. She stumbled back onto the dew covered grass, but did not let out a single sound. All color was drained from her face, save for the ruby red lipstick that made her look all the more chilled. The phone's ringing eventually stopped, but he still did not move. 

I finally saw her get up, and she ran quickly, as if trying to run out of a living nightmare. Maybe she thought she would be able to save him if she got to the booth soon enough. I saw her tears freeze and stick to that beautifully terrified face, as she dialed 911.

This piece was written in the 10th grade, I was 14/15 at the time.  My mark on this project was perfect. I was quite proud of the piece, considering the amount of time I had to write it. I may share more short writing pieces, and I hope this one can be enjoyed!

A Thank You!

PICS OR IT DIDN'T HAPPEN.

BAM.

<3

Anyways, a huge thank you to everybody. 

It makes me so happy that there were 1,000 different people all over the world who entertained the thought of subscribing to me at one point in their life! 

I don't have all 1,000 watch, but that's not what matters.

What matters is that I have the amazing support I have.

I am such a lucky and fortunate human being.

All of my subscribers are all so nice, and I have met such nice friends in the past year.

It doesn't matter what community you're in, it's nice to feel accepted.

I know I'm not doing anything "original" by any means, and it may not take as much work as other things that people put out..

But I'm trying my best, and I'm glad there are people who can relate, and who enjoy the work that I do put into my things. 

I just want to pass on a few things for those of you who are like me.

You maybe want to start your own channel, or you're struggling:

You can rise up from the ground.

You can, and will make friends.

Anything is possible, as long as you put forth dedication and hard work.

I feel I may be overexaggerating. 

Maybe I should save all this gloating for a large number like 10,000 or 200,000. 

But seriously, 1,000 is more then I could have ever asked for. 

We all assume that there will be someone better, that we will be overlooked, and we will never succeed.

But, that's not true, and you've given myself, and many others hope.

And most importantly, a sense of happiness and acceptance.

Besides, there's no harm in taking pride in the simple things in life right?

Sincerely, Nikki
