The Math I Can Do: 52 Books

Posted by Hurricane iBrow , in Life Feb 13 2013 · 69 views

1 Year = 52 Weeks + 52 Books
 
I decided to attempt the challenge for myself, and am about a third of the way through Tolkien's The Two Towers as we speak. The following novels that I haven't read are on my to-read list this year:
 
-Animal Farm
-The Return of the King (obviously)
-Ender's Game
-The Great Gatsby
[edit]-Les Miserables
 
Which isn't that many, so I'm here to ask you all to throw the 1001 books that you all must combined know of that I can't remember at this specific moment in time, and one by one, I will hunt them all down.
I believe I'm about 10-12 books done so far, which is good. I'm hoping to get a good head start by June, because I won't have time to read anything during the summer and then school in September promises to chain me to a wall and force feed me textbooks.
 
Speaking of school, I was just assigned the task of writing a novella in my Writer's Craft class. >:]
iBrow will win this. I always write my best when I'm forced to write, and I have a rather neat idea in mind. Perhaps I'll even let some of you read it, because I'll need proof readers of course.

Math Makes My Thinker Box Hurt

Posted by Hurricane iBrow , in Life Feb 11 2013 · 53 views

If you get what I'm attempting to reference with that title, splendid!
 
Anyway, the last time I did a math class was over a year ago, and I was never splendid with it in the first place (English is almost literally where I need to dump all of my poor eggs), so it's tough already and we're only still reviewing that class!
 
Imma fail math at some point in my life. .__.

My Eyeballs Burn

Posted by Hurricane iBrow , in BZPower, Life, Movies, My Little Pony, Video Games Feb 10 2013 · 63 views

Now that you have been drawn in by that excellent title, let us move onto the matter at hand, which, while it did involve the use of my eyes, would be rather hard pressed to make them burn.
 
I'd just like to mention that for my occupation as an "eyebrow" (not gonna lie; it feels weird to type it correctly), I have a lot to say sometimes.
But then I remember that right now I have my display name on a character that refused to stop singing and talking when he'd been shot in the chest, so you know, it all works out.
 
What does this entry mean? Well to be honest, I don't know. An eyebrow just talks sometimes because it wishes to be heard. (Actually it's more because the eyebrow wishes to speak and does not care if he is heard or not).
 
What I need right now is some Team Fortress 2.
 
I'll get it in about... hmm... six, seven, maybe eight or nine months! Yeeaah. B-) 
It's cooool, folks.
 
Also I heard that a certain Twilight Sparkle was becoming a winged unicorn and that people were upset. I think that's cool too folks. B-) 
 
I'm outta here! There be other power business in the bionicle zone to attend to!
 
IBROOOOOW... AWAAAAAAAAY!

Gold Wii Remote

Does anyone have one that they'd be willing to sell? The one that came in that Skyward Sword bundle pack. If you do, just comment below and I can shoot you a pm.
 
Or, alternatively, if anyone has seen one online that hasn't been put up for 200 dollars (I saw one going for 66, but didn't have time to go for it), that'd be cool too.

New Year, New Theme, New Migraines

Posted by Hurricane iBrow , in BZPower, Life Jan 04 2013 · 50 views

So I exited 2012 and entered 2013 suffering terrible migraines, in addition to a rather upset stomach, a runny nose, and a fever (which thankfully wasn't bad enough to hospitalize me). I was rather insensible after about 5pm New Years Eve. Not fun at all.
 
Better now of course; the headaches went away on the 2nd, and since then it's been a minor head cold that gets better every second.
 
That said, new year is upon us, and I'm thinking I am wishing to have a new theme.
 
The first thing I will be doing is removing every single silly block I have! So let us begin rolling! It is pyro time! Maybe.
