Once upon a time, in a land. . .
No, none of that. I tried posting this blog once before and failed terribly (me being the NEWB I am and exiting the upload screen), so this time I'll make it short, sweet, and to the point.
When word about 1.8 (commonly known as the Adventure Update) came out, I was super uber excited. I mean, come on; new, sexy lighting (sexy is totally an appropriate word for it), a new game mode, new biome generation, new items, randomly spawned NPC villages, and two. . .TWO new mobs. Cool beans! These mobs were Endermen and Silverfish. I had little interest in the Silverfish, but Endermen were another story. I read up on these interesting creatures using ye olde Google. There, I found out that they didn't like being looked at (totally understandable, some creatures as well as people are self-concious :P) and would teleport and harass you if you did happen to look at them.
"Cool, cool," I thought to myself. . .that is until I saw a video of an Enderman. In that video, the Enderman whispered lord knows what and stared at the person with its cold, white eyes. If that didn't scare me enough, the person looked away only to find that the Enderman teleported behind him and MURDERED HIS BUTT! So, after that I hid under my bed in what would have been anticipation but was fear for the wondrous Adventure Update.
Alas! The day had come when 1.8 arrived! I logged in at the blink of an eye and being the naive girl I am, I went to multiplayer and checked out its pimpin' new GUI instead of seeing what I was up against in singleplayer. Smart,right?
In multiplayer, Endermen didn't attack me. Nope, they never even showed signs of wanting to attack. So, I just assumed that they were sweet, harmless creatures of the night. I would place blocks for these friendly giants, just to watch them pick them right up! I found this immensely entertaining, and declared Endermen to be my friendermen! (Thanks to the awesome creator of Jolicraft for putting that in my head :P)
Now guess what? Now that I had a new found friendship with Endermen, I decided to make a singleplayer map and play around there, you know? Spend some quality alone time (not that type) with my friends (seriously, NOT THAT TYPE OF ALONE TIME!) *cough cough* Now, what was I saying? Oh, yes. . .When night fell, I began making shelter. While I was placing my hard earned wooden planks, I witnessed several pairs of glowing purple eyes over in the distance. I walked over to find three Endermen. I looked at one, and it opened its mouth. Now, this was not normal. It scared me, so I began to run. Once I made it to the base of my unfinished hut, the Enderman tp'ed to me. It smacked me with all of its might, and I died. I quit the game with a tear sliding down my cheek, feeling awfully betrayed.
This SURSLY happened. Some things MIGHT have been over-exaggerated. Seeing how this was my first blog post, I hope you like it!
