Day 5 07.07.cy113
woke up and am feeling refreshed. before i head out i am going to show around a few friends i met a couple months back while vacationing back home. going to show them the best restaurant around! other than that i'm going to keep training my skills.
back to my comfortable captains quarters. it was nice to catch up with them but i'm ready to get back to the task at hand, finishing up my basic skill training.
been quite distracted by social activities today. will now focus and get to the task of finishing Ettes missions.
finally finished up all my agent training missions and i'm ready to set out for the stars beyond the Trossere branch of the University of Caille. i'm secure in knowing that exploration is the field for me and to do such a field i need to have quite a bit of training. the skillbooks keep stacking but i'm a diligent learner and all to ready to learn everything i can. my first true solo steps begin at this moment, what will i make of myself? will i be a force for good or for evil? will i change the world of New Eden or be forgotten? it's a long road but i'm ready to begin. my Intaki roots are calling me homeward so after a few sales i think that will be my first stop.
it looks like my homeworld of Intaki V is a no go. ever since the Caldari-Gallente war the whole system has been rife with conflict. i'm not ready to enter that fray yet. i'm looking at taking on two courier missions which would take me the furthest from University of Caille than i've ever been. it should be a safe trip but i'm always nervous on courier missions nontheless because of all the collateral they require. i understand that i'm shipping expensive stuff but it's hard to get a foot in the door when it's almost closed. so off i go to the Pucherie and Dunraelare system before my final stop at the Dodixie system. a grand total of 17 jumps for 90 thousand ISK.
in the midst of my couriership i picked up another two contracts...the thing is one takes me through lowsec...Egghelende to be exact...i hear terrible things. i may not survive, and it will be a 1.4mil ISK mistake at the very least. in all likelihood this will be my last entry before waking up as my first clone. i am afraid but i am steadfast. this is the life i have chosen and though i know death will hurt, it is not the end of me for i am immortal. i am a capsuleer.
I HAVE SURVIVED! Egghelende >> Alillere (806 m³) (Courier) my first journey into lowsec and i survived and so did my trusty Artery. i will never forget this moment as I have only begun to define myself in New Eden. as i prepared to enter the abyss i sent out a query on EVE Radio and received advice from one Golakka and he told me i was doomed, but if i lost my ship he would help me, and if i survived he'd give me some ISK. he fulfilled his promise when i returned successful, with a generous donation of 10mil. ISK. it's been a good day.
i am back safe at the Trossere branch of the University of Caille. i'm suprised the university is big enough to allow everyone their own quarters like this. well i guess it is the biggest university in New Eden. i feel so lucky to have been able to attend here and advance to the grade of capsuleer. yes there are many who hold that title but even more that do not. i am one of the envyable few and i know it. i envyed capsuleers from afar ever since i first heard about them 5 years ago. today was an epoch in my capsuleer career and it won't soon be forgotten.
tomorrow i set out to spend my first full day out of school. it'll be intense, it'll be harrowing but most of all it will be fun.
as my friend BlackHuey says "fly dangerously," well i did fly dangerously today...and i will tomorrow too.
