As I'm sure you all know by now, Neopets has a brand new layout and a customizing option for your Neopets. There are many new features, and the pets have all been redrawn. Here's my bit on the whole thing:
The layout is very pretty, but they need to move the ads. I know I can block them but I haven't bothered yet and they're sitting on top of my pretty Altadorian Constellations.
What the heck is with it being so $%#*** wide? Honestly, if made it fit the screen, moved the ads, and got rid of all the little floaty boxes I would love it.
<3 the idea of customizing, but DON'T REDRAW ALL THE PETS! Why do male pets have eyelashes, may I ask? Why do the Aisha and many other pets barely resemble the old art?
And why can I not have the option of choosing between old and new?
Goals
Wow, ok, where to start?
I want to paint my Aisha Ghost--I'm getting the PB with my TOW plot points.
I want to paint my Uni Disco (as per the new release)--It's 350K so I guess it'll take a while.
I want to finish getting the lab map--if I use what's left of my plot points I can sell an item like Thumburts Cane for roughly 150K and that's what I need to finish up. I'll probably put it on my one side account (firtree21) and zap my Kacheek for fun and the two Skeiths for "adopt, improve, and find owners," then get more pets on there. There's a possibility one will be so cute that I can't let go though!
I would also like to paint my Xweetok on that same side account but I'm not sure what colour.
There, now I'm all organized.

Wow wow wow!
Okay...after a few weeks of being bored of the site, Neopets has done what it never fails to do, time and time again...everything I have been waiting for and a little more!
To start off, the most important thing, that breath has been held over for months (considering it was the HALLOWEEN plot): plot prizes are out. You can get your avvie, sidebar, trophy and prizes here. Very nice prizes, too...for only 8k of plot points (not hard to get) you can choose a lovely Ghost Paintbrush (see my little bit about the prizes in my next post), and for a little more you can get BD weapons, or for a bit less you can get books and toys!
There's a new daily but it's only for March: Daily Dare, which brings back my old arch enemy AAA and introduces his sister Abigail. You see if you can beat them at games, and get a prize.
Not to mention it's Uni Day! A favourite for me, as one of my first pets is a Uni.
And a new issue of The Neopian Times.
(Don't forget the cancellation of March 3rd, BTW.)

Latest avatar goal
You get this one by going to the Help section, typing in "avatar" and refreshing. I really am annoyed by avatars you have to refresh for, but I think it's a good goal!
At last!
I did my daily cheeserolling (see previous post) and I reached my goal!
Yay!
Now, it's time for Your Suggestions. I'm going to make this my new default avvie--but I need a siggy to match. If you have any colours, fonts, etc that you think would make this look great, let me know.
On a side note, I'll pick another avatar to work toward, so look for a post soon.

Snap, crackle, BANG!
Okay, so this isn't Neopets related. That's okay. 
My mama squirrel posted about this, so I tried it. And then I tried it again. And then I showed it to Crayons and Ponytails. And then I looked for more!
What?
Virtual bubble wrap. This is for the people who colour in the o's and e's and p's and any other closed up letter. This is for people who are mad at their boss and lost their stress ball down the back of the desk. And lastly, this is for me. When I'm bored.
So try this "easy" version first. Then a similar one, but with a catch..."buddy bubbles", to pop them press down "B" while clicking. Both of these have "Manic Mode", which is simply that you wave the mouse over the bubbles rather than clicking. Much faster. Then I found the "game" version. There's levels, rather than it being just a stress reliever. I have no idea how many levels there are, but if you plan on finding out I would strongly recommend holding the mouse button down to save time, because there's no Manic Mode. It also has "tough bubbles" which you will have to click on for longer.
This one I just discovered now. Don't use it if brown humour offends you--let's just say the bubble wrap makes...noises.
Now we just need virtual toss-packing-peanuts-at-your-sister (or boss!)
Roll the cheese down the hill, around the stump, and to Grandma's house, little Red Riding Hood!
My newest NeoObsession: 
Check out tina_thecool's guide, and follow her instructions: buy a Quadruple Fudge Cheese (how gross is that!), and roll it down the hill, diving right. If you feel cheap get the Spicy Juppie one. I can now make it down the hill in under a minute following her suggestions, and that's how you get that cheesy (excuse the pun) avatar.
Which I want. So every day, I will be playing Cheeseroller 3X a day, until I get the avatar. Because it's random. :P But how often do you see that little gem pop up on the Neoboards? I've never seen it!
*static*
That's right, it's Sloth Appreciation day. No, not a sloth like this:
But like this:
That is, Dr. Frank Sloth.
How...handsome.
And just for today, I'll admit that Jelly World does not exist.

An Open Invitation
Anyone who reads this blog (and anyone you'd like to tell) are invited--or challenged, perhaps is a more fitting word--to BD any of the pets on my main. We'll need to set up a time, so Neomail me (if you don't have Neomail comment here). Preferably in the evenings or midafternoon (EST).
If you've never Battledomed before, why not give it a shot? Buy a couple weapons at one of the many shops, such as Kauvara's Bazaar or Battle Magic. Go to Coltzan's Shrine if you like and up your pet's stats a bit. My Grundo (unlike my other pets on my main) is only Level 3.
You have to love Neoquest.
Ah, Neoquest. The painfully long game that is the pride and joy of that little creepy guy. But it has its benefits. You get lots of RA from all that refreshing! I'm only in Gors' Garden and I've already got two codestones, a quest, and a ghost (not good!). And when I'm done...I get to play Neoquest II. Yippee. :-D
Enter and win! (well, sort of...)
This is a contest that I have begun running, and it's "legal" too: no prizes, not even Pile of Soot. All you have to do is send me your siggy pet, eg:
Mouse!

You can send it via comments or via Neomail. So what are you waiting for?
The Victory Screenshot
This is the kind of screenshot that's just too good to keep to yourself. Remember that Aaa Games Master Challenge a while back? Remember how everyone had trouble with Ultimate Bullseye? So did I. Until this:
So there, Aaa.
So there, Aaa.
Et voila! I am here!
And with the new year, comes a new blog, The NeoApprentice! This will be a journal of my experiences on Neopets...the newest things, games I'm trying out, and Random Events! I'm still editing settings, so bear with me. :-)
