Wow. Just wow.
Okay, a few things to intro with:
First off, I just found out earlier yesterday that one of my friends has been diagnosed with a form of cancer called Hodgkin's. It's really scary for all of us since she's only 17 and already has these complications. I myself had a variety of skin cancer when I was younger and remember how scary that was, but I can't imagine what she feels right now. I know that she starts her chemo on Friday and I'm gonna try to be there for her.
Sec
A fist of fiar.
Also, I decided to snap a picture of my Rapidly Growing Collection of Egyptian Books. It's kind of small, I know, but I've learned a great deal for them and I'm thinking about getting a few more soon, once I get some money.

Obviously, the DarkBley limbs are merely placeholders until I'm able to aquire them from the various sets that contain them (Mata Nui and the Skopio XV-1, specifically). This is Toa Tirannwn, the Toa Gielinor of Energy. Not totally set in stone in terms of thigh and bicep armoring, but I'm pretty set on the torso.
Any suggestions to improve him? ~Kohilå*** Spirit Fable Epic ~ Review ***
...Whew.
Well, to sum this up, I'm taking an extended leave from BZP. And no, I don't hope for this to turn out like The Last Time. I mean it.
Why? Well, there are multiple reasons for this.
The biggest, primary concern is that my school has been failing. I'm not talking B's and C's, I mean I've begun to get D's and even managed an F. BZP is great, but it's really become just too... time consuming. I really, really need to get priorities straight. X_X
Second, I'm actually makin
Yep, I've made two new maps that correspond with my various Epics:
The Island of Ouir Nui
The Island of Tepthei
Now, I am definately prouder of the cartograph of Tepthei, since I made a few mistakes on Ouir Nui (i.e. forgot to blur the forests into the map as well as the riverbanks, forgot to lighten it and add an overlayed cloud noise to all of it, etc.). So, tell me what you think?
Also, I forgot to say, I just joined the KanohiJournal Staff as a Short Story/Epic Reviewer,
It's come to my attention that a lot of the members of "The C.I.R.C.L.E." have Toa in their stories that lack images of their Matoran forms; In order to try and fill in some blanks, I'm gonna offer to make those MOCs on request. If you'd like this done, you can either PM me the request or you can just leave the request in the comments section in this thread.
All I ask is that you post the request in the below format:
Name:
Kanohi:
Kanohi Color:

Well, I decided to take my old Blog Topic, "Parts for MOCing" and spice it up a bit to be an organized wanted list for me to update easier.
I'll have a list containing my Wants for both MOCs as well as for canon models (i.e. Kyry, Certavus, etc.).
So, here it is.
Agori Kirbold 1 Pearl Light Gray BIONICLE Mask Cendox V1 / Kaxium V3 Flip Mask Agori Kyry2 Bright Light Orange Technic, Axle and Pin Connector 2 x 5 with Two Ball Joint Sockets 1 Dark Red BIONICLE 1 x 3 Tooth with Axle Hol
To sum it up, I'd like to apologize to any member who's sent me a PM and received no reply. Up until recently, it was majorly a mixture or procrastination as well as schoolwork. I have a lot of stuff on my plate to get done for various things, and the fact that my laptop won't turn on is driving me mad.
If you saw the recently part, long-story-sort there's an 80% chance or so that I'm going to need surgery in March. I'm really shook up from up this, but I'm not going to let it get in the way
Ehh, passing time by building a MOC of the Bara Magna Robot:
Known Improvements to Make: The ends of the feet need worked on. Shoulders need bulked up and rounded. BIG overhaul of his torso. Head needs redone. I really just built the current one for kicks. So, I guess that the legs and the arms are the only awesome parts of the whole MOC to me. ~Kohilå*** Spirit Fable Epic ~ Review ***
Y'know, it's really, really weird when you can actually feel yourself maturing.
The emotion is a mix of like... a sense of pride, followed by a sense of nostalgia for the times beforehand.
In other news, there isn't too much goings-on lately, so the CWU will cover both last week and this week.
Also, it seems that the 12 Days of BZPower has ended, and so us lucky 12 will be sent to Willy Won-- err, I mean, receiving 3 Prototype parts each.
To cap it all of, I'm struggling with mys

I can't believe it; I won 3 Prototype pieces.
(And then the excitement kicks in; I hope I get a prototype Kanohi.) ~Kohilå*** Spirit Fable Epic ~ Review ***
Brother brought it with him and I finally decided to sit down and play the game. Just finished it.
In an overview, the story was very well-written. You wonder where you go at the end and, while I'm talking about it, the ending is spectacular.
Oh, and Happy New Years 'n' stuff. ~Kohilå*** Spirit Fable Epic ~ Review ***

Right, so I've been talking to Toa_Åusår a bit about how to improve the face of "The C.I.R.C.L.E." around BZP, especially on how to keep our members interested in the organization. One of those ideas is the possibility of sponsoring the KanohiJournal to get publicity. But then another idea occured to us: How about making a weekly update Blog to keep members informed on current dealings, so that the interest isn't lost?
Since Toa_Åusår's Blog is already in use for Proposals and other stuff,
Very, very, very, very, VERY long day today.
A quick recap, my Father got remarried earlier today. I was a Best Man alongside my older brother, Rob, and loved the entirety of the wedding. Well, most of it.
Summary:
Rob and I went on a late-night cruise at around 3am to see if Wal-Mart had yet reopened from its Christmas closing. It hadn't. So, we went by Speedway and got food and stuff and went back home.
Woke up at 8am. Showered, dressed in PJ's until 11am, where I got dressed
So, this Christmas was straight-up grand.
The spoils are as follows: A pair of PJ pants A very, very nice iHome stereo A Gator pedalboard for all of my pedals that I received for My Birthday A camoflague throw blanket from Rob A $15 iTunes giftfcard The Illustrated Dictionary of Guitars 2 Tee-Shirts A tie I Am Legend ...And $150 in cold, hard cash. So, generally speaking, I loved this Christmas. ~Kohilå*** Spirit Fable Epic ~ Review ***
Note: The deadline has been extended by one week, changing it to December 27th.
The task is simple: Create a Light-based weapon that fits with the scene here. It can be a gun, a sword, you name it. The Entry Period will end December 27th, and voting will go from December 28th-30th. The winner will be announced New Year's Eve.
The prize will be official canonization of the weapon and it's history (As long as it's not contradictory) into "The C.I.R.C.L.E.", as well as a a medium-size
Today was great:
Also, for what it's worth, I took another picture of Me In A Suit, and it looks better than the first IMO.
Fun time, this holiday season is. ^^ ~Kohilå*** Spirit Fable Epic ~ Review ***
Right, so I just tried on my suit for Dad's wedding on the 26th:
Very nice, I might add, although my eyes are all squinty. ~Kohilå*** Spirit Fable Epic ~ Review ***
Just a quick reminder that the Entry Period for "Blog MOC Contest #2: The Light Show!" ends on Sunday, so be sure to submit your Entries on the Contest Thread! ~Kohilå*** Spirit Fable Epic ~ Review ***
Decided that my original avatar was a bad quality, so I took a newer picture of myself and made it into an avatar:
Thoughts? ~Kohilå*** Spirit Fable Epic ~ Review ***
So, I've been thinking about hosting another Blog Contest here since the last one was actually fairly decent and I wanted to know if anyone would participate if I did.
Now, if I do end up hosting another Blog Contest, I would have to wait until BrickShelf and/or MajHost go back online (What's the deal with them, anyway? ).
Another thing I've been thinking about; not a complaint or a jeer: Why is it that the "Expanded Multiverse" seems to be lifted higher than "The C.I.R.C.L.E.", in a se
