I’ve decided that my current mission in World of Warcraft needs to be to get the Loremaster achievement. This is guaranteed to be difficult and tedious, but I think it will be fun. I’m such a lore buff in WoW, so this is the perfect title for me. I contemplated leveling an alt, but there is so much left to do with Pawtopsy and I’m such a completionist. So, Loremaster it is. I’m starting with Kalimdor, which is supposedly the most difficult. I’m sitting at 300/685, so it’s a long way from here. I think it will be fun to visit old zones and quests though.
Why am I not waiting until Cataclysm, when there will be flight form in the old world? Mostly, I’m scared the the achievement will change and will be deprecated when new quests come out. I don’t want to miss out on the opportunity for the Loremaster title. 
I might regret this later, but I have nothing better to do in WoW right now, so it’s perfect.
Wish me luck, I have a LONG way to go and I don’t get much time to play.
