Ah! Some of you may have noticed that I STILL haven't really been around the boards...well, I'd like to say that I had some really important thing that kept me from you guys...but I don't. To be honest, I've been playing Mega Man Battle Network 6 (Grega version) a whole lot. :blush: To be honest, I'm kinda embarassed about it... it's really eaten up A LOT of my time...argh! I feel so tired right now. I didn't even finish the game! I decided to just quit because it felt like it was consuming me. It takes FOREVER to get all those Battle Chips. I'm glad I snapped out of it. Anyway, this is just an update for all you guys. I can't believe I've missed SO much. There's been so much going on. An S&T Fact Team just got appointed, and I'm SO jealous. Maybe if I had been on the boards a little more, I would've gotten picked. I'm kind of disappointed that I didn't get to be on the Blog Moderator Team, either...when I see a lot of guys from S&T on there... Now, there's also that S&T Contest now... I just feel so "left out"... Well, there's not much I can do now. I'm still hoping for that FA position in my FAVOURITE forum!

Well, today sorta became a big day for me. After getting a message from some friends of mine, I found that they were looking for apartments. This has been something I've been mulling over since I finished my third year of college, and decided it would be worth looking into. After a few days of talking with the parents, getting some things sorted out financially, I took a trip down to the campus to look over potential places to stay. The intent was to gather as much info as possible about what was available. Things sorta went quickly from there. Because it was "late" in the season, apartments were becoming scarce. One of the few available looked excellent, and with two of us unsure of where they would be living, and a third (me) preparred to make the move, we jumped. So now, effective August 1st, I'll be moving into my first "new place." .... Wow, I gotta take a moment. It's one of those big steps that you never really realize is going to happen eventually. But at this point in my life it's time to take the initiative to find to set out on my own. I'm fortunate enough to have a place that's affordable now, with enough jobs close to campus that I won't have problems finding income while I'm settling in. And I'm moving in with two people I've known since I started my college degree. What does this mean? I really don't know for sure. For starters, I'll definately be working a lot more, and hopefully at something closer to what I'm used to. Working in the food service industry for the past seven years (with a few breaks for a more normal desk job) have been nice, but I've got to get going in the field I've been studying for. The truth is, I'm nervous as heck. I know I'll be alright, but it's like that feeling you get when you first move into the dorms. Only now I'm pretty much on my own. ---------------------------------------- Vote Mauer: It's time for my sales pitch. Many of you I'm sure watch baseball, and I know a lot of you are life-long Minnesotaners. (Minnesotans?) Either or, as you know...the All-Star Game is fast approaching. And we as fans have only three days to cast our votes for the players we want to see start. Now, any good Minnesotan baseball fan should know that Twins catcher Joe Mauer has been on a tear as of late....taking the lead in batting average at a whopping .378. But that's not all. I'll let the numbers speak for themselves. Joe ranks almost consistantly better than his top four competitors for the All-Star starting posistion. So, my fellow Twins fans, do your part and cast your 25 online votes for Twins catch Joe Mauer. Because you know he'd do the same for you.

I haven't been surfing BZP nearly as often as I used to, but when I saw the front page and heard this place had started supporting blogs, I figure why the heck not right? I've only started blogging recently, mostly because of the reason I gave in the title. I have a blog of sorts on my webpage, but that's not even close to Bionicle related (not that I know if this blog has to be anyway). So I decided, hey...it'd be cool. So now I've got my blog on BZP, and who knows how often it'll get updated. My life isn't particularily interesting. And even my own webpage gets a new Rant every month or so. So if you care, feel free to stop by...I can't promise a heck of a lot.

Well, if any of you have been wondering where I've been for the past few weeks (I sure hope at least SOMEONE from S&T noticed), I've been really working hard in school. The end of the year is here for me. Next week is exam week for me...yikes! I gotta get back to studying, but I just wanted to let you guys know what I'm up to. I'll see you Wednesday afternoon (after my last exam)! P.S. Don't forget to rate my blog!

Wow...this blog is "da bomb". Being a PM sure does have its perks. I'm really excited about this new feature because it gives us members a chance to just talk. Normally, you have to stay on topic in the different forums...but here, we can talk about whatever's on our mind! I've actually made my own blog before (coded it and everything on my personal site), but I never really spent much time posting in it. Anyway, hope it doesn't happen with this. I really hope that all of you now will have a chance to get to know me a little better. Yours cooly, Mr. O
