Well, hello everyone! It's been two weeks now since I last blogged, and I can't let my blog pass into the second page of my favorites list now can I?
So anyways, my last blog post was written just before I left to go on my youth group's mission trip and I thought I would blog about how that went. If you want to skip down to the section where I talk about what's been going on since then (I talk about the Wii and Brawl there), or down to where I talk about Bionicle/BZPower, then feel free to
Ok guys, I have gotten alot of good feedback on this contest proposal (see blog entry before this one), and thus I believe that I shall go through with it. However, there are still a few things that need to be smoothed over/decided upon:
~ The MoCing period. The options:
a - 24 hrs
b - 48 hrs
c. - 72 hrs
~ Who can enter. The options:
a - Only members that have come in 1st, 2nd, or 3rd place in a BBCC; or members that have won a LEGO Mag Challeng
I have now been sent reply notifications to three topics which I have never laid eyes on, much less subscribed to. Here's the latest one: Something about sharpies
Why am I randomly being subscribed to topics?
I have noticed that quite a few of the forum leaders/assistants have changed their names. As such, I am getting a wee bit confused. Could someone clear me up a bit?

So, my dad and I went to see Star Trek today; and I've gotta say: I enjoyed it quite a bit!
I don't have alot of time here, but I will say that if you like complicated plots, futuristic spaceships and blast fights, as well as blackholes and time warps, you'll love this movie! The story was pretty neat, and the action was superb. There were quite a few intense on-the-edge-of-your-seat moments (even though I wasn't on the edge of my seat, lol)
I won't even try to explain the plot line to y
This evening I've got a little MoC I'd like to show ya.
First of all, however, I would just like to note that I threw this together in about an hour and a half.
I didn't have much of a plan on what I wanted to build here, but my main reasons for making him were:
1) try out a new shoulder/arm build which I had thought of earlier that day
2) try out a new color scheme
In other words, this wasn't that serious of a MoC.
I'm planning on getting a topic done up sometime soon, but u
I must say, GBG is pleased.
For those of you who don't know, I had a piano recital (you might if you read Sunneh's blog, and even then: thoroughly). Also, for those of you who don't know, I've been playing piano for 7-8 years now, so... yeah.
Anyways, the recital went quite well, considering the fact that in practicing right before I messed up right at the beginning majorly and in some other spots over the course of my playing it through 3 or so times. DX During the recital itself, howev
Soooo...
My family and I have arrived in Wake forest and we will be here for the next week (I believe we leave on Saturday morning). For those of you who didn't read my last blog entry, my dad is here to teach at Southeastern Baptist Seminary. Prayers would be welcome for my dad though; he did not sleep well at all last night, and considering that he will be teaching for about eight hours a day he's gonna need alot more rest. Please pray that he will be able to get to sleep faster and sleep

I got my Brickmaster in today. I must say, I enjoyed the whole enchilada quite nicely.
The magazine itself was nice. There are a few pages dedicated to Bionicle, talking about the Mistika and whatnot. The new Agents comics are neat, and rather entertaining as well. The Batman comic was ok... Also featured is a two page... thingy... on the Star Wars: The Clone Wars LEGO minifigures, coming out later on in the summer apparently. The minifigs looks pretty good, especially the clones. Captain Rex
So, the fam and I are on vacation at the moment. We are currently located in Morristown Tennessee, and are on our way to Wake Forest North Carolina.
It's actually a kindof work/vacation trip, seeing as my dad will be teaching at Southeastern Seminary this next week, but after that we are going to be in DC for a week of being tourists. I need to find out where the LEGO store is located there...
Anywhoo, We spent the evening with the family of a very good friend of my mother's whom she wen

I'm wondering how to do my Certavus' color scheme. Currently, I've got a majority of white over light blue with a strategic spattering of trans-blue throughout. I have used as little black as possible (next to zero) and I'm using a bit of gray.
However, I'm wondering: should I use something that I would actually associate with an ice Glatorian (like white and light blue), or should I do something completely different for uniqueness sake? I want to use white for sure, but what about the secon
Ok, first things first. How exactly do you place two capital letters right after one another in a blog title without the second one being a little letter? Thanks for any input.
Now, on to the news! My family has officially arrived in DC, and we will be here for the remainder of the week. Today we went to the Udvar-hazy Air and Space Museum in the morning and had a blast there looking at all of the cool planes, missiles, space probes, and of course the Enterprise. This afternoon we went to the
Well mates, it's on to the final round of the duel! Currently our two duelists are tied at one round apiece, and I look forward to this last epic battle! However, before we move on, please join me in congratulating the winner of our last round...

Yay!

Hey guys! Well, my dad and I went to see Indy last Thursday, and I thought that I would write a little review.
To start off with, the m
For the first time, I'm operating on micro-scale, or medium-scale perhaps. I'm about 75% complete with one part of my entry; I'm thinking of having two units to do battle. Yes, they are not humanoid in any fashion; think small, treads, and blasters. Get the idea? Now, back to work.
This blog entry is for the sole use of members entering the BZP MoCist Duels Contest. Any other comments shall be deleted.

Well guys, the voting for the MoCist Duels contest is over, and our duelists are tied! How do you suggest I break the tie? Make the voting go on for a day longer? I am open to all suggestions!
Oh, and I would like to thank all of you who have voted in the contest, I have gotten alot more participation than I was expecting!

Darth Vader!
I would like to explain a few things first. I realize that it appeared as if the duelists were tied in the last round, but due to and oversight on my part, Roa didn't actually get the last vote, and thus, DV was one vote over Roa!
On that note, I would like to present to DV his trophy ...
There you go! Originally, the trophy was a little shinier and it was all circular, the corners were transparent. Sadly, the process of saving it as a .jpg sortof ruined it. I had
Greetings BZPower members! I am happy to present to you my first real blog entry. I am going to use this entry to introduce myself.
Well, to start off, my name is Joshua. I would give you my last name, but I have been advised not to do so. I am sure that you could figure it out if you really wanted to though. Anyway, I am 15 years old, and I shall be 16 in August (driving! yippes!). I am a rather tall (six feet and just under 3 inches) skinny boy that has a thick carpet of (short) brown hair
Who lowered my blog rating down to three stars? :angry: What have I done to deserve this? I demand that you come out and show yourself! And I just got back up to 4.1...
Not that it really matters.
