So, yesterday was Spirit Day at school. Besides wearing school t-shirts and other blue and sliver clothes (school colors), some people decided to die their hair blue. My friend did, and...
so did I!!!
Yeah, that was fun. I can't wait until the next spirit day!

On that note, I would like to tell you where I'll be and when, so we might be able to meet up or even more than one BZPer. (although some of you live in Louisiana and Massachusetts)
Anyway, I'll be at the SAR Oratoracle Contest thing on February 17th, in Richmond, VA
I'll also be at Katsucon (which I still need to blog about...) that same weekend, attending on Sunday. It's at the Omni Shoram Hotel in Washington, DC that weekend.

Well, it's been a while since I had an amine section entry, so...
Please check out my newest Avatar! It can be seen in this entry. (actually, I made a comment in here, but that entry is pretty cool so you should go there anyway)

So last night I took part in an essay contest. The Sons of the American Revolution holds a contest linking the Am. Rev. to today.
Well, I won, got $100 and am going to state (Richmond, Va).
Now onto the bad news: The State competition is over Katsucon weekend. (an Amine Convention) Saturday February 17.
Well, I'll still make it to the Sunday part of the con.
Anyway, I won.

I went on the March For Life today.
Any other BZPers there?
I am talking, of course, about DC's March for Life, as in Pro-Life, as in no abortion, as in Roe v. Wade.
The March For Life is a Rally and Mass in the morning in the Verizon Center (20,000 people in a basketball stadium), then a walk from there to the Capitol building with signs with pro-life messages on them. (On of my favorites was "yo mama is pro life") We are basically trying to show Congress that the decision to make abo
No, this isn't a post about the manga...
Actually, here in Northern Virginia we finally got some snow! Not even an inch, but it it snowed enough to delay some schools.

For the Server Busy pages, and me just having had my English Mid-term exam, this is on my mind:
I edited the first stanza to Edgar Allen Poe's "The Raven" Here it goes:
Once upon a server busy, whild I surfed, weak and weary
Over many a quaint and curious volume of Bionicle Lore--
While it loaded, nearly lacking, suddenly there came that lacking
As if something gently hacking, hacking for this server bore
"Tis many visitors," I muttered, "tapping on the BZ Door

That's right! I am now 17. Woohoo!
Well, I guess some of you are past that now....

So far I have received $55, which will most likely all go toward Lego. (or some to some Manga)
I also expect some manga, Lego, and camping equipment. (perhaps some surprises as well)
There will be cake. (It's white with white frosting, so my brother and mom can eat it too (allergic to chocolate), but I did have a chocolate cake with chocolate frosting and chocolate pudding in the middle w
Well, on Saturday I went to my first Lego User's Group (LUG) meeting! The group is WAMALUG (Washington Metro Area LUG). I went with two 16 year old friends, and had an interesting time. I was able to talk with AFOLs young and older, and almost every new set was there. I was able to see the new Aqua Raider sets, some new Exo Force, a couple of Barraki and all the small box sets, and some new Star Wars sets.
We also played BrickQuest, an RPG using Lego.
I do plan on going back, but not
Well, my family got high speed internet now!
Which means goodbye dial up!
So things are going way too fast than I'm used to!
Things I plan on doing really soon: go to Biowall and look at every image Look at a bunch of BBC topics Download anime/manga Read anime/manga Load pix to BrickShelf And a bunch of other stuff that I couldn't do 13.5 % speed ago.

As Tilius has mentioned in his blog entry, I now ask the same thing:
Please don't pluarlize Bionicle words!!!!
That pretty much explains it. It's not cool. There is a Toa of Light, and there are six Toa of Metru Nui. Zaktan is a Piraka, and all the Piraka are evil. There are six Turaga that watch out for the Toa Nuva.
Generally, there are six of something and you don't need to add an 's'
Continuing:
There are six types of Vahki. A swarm of Bohrok are attacking the Koro
well, I got my ears lowered today. But I guess I needed it.
If you know what I look like, just picture it shorter everywhere.

Well, there is a new Lego Catalog out, and it has some great new sets. The Aqua Raiders look amazing (better than the Alpha Team Water Series), the new Exo Force are nice (I'll get to that in a moment), and of course there are the Barraki. I'm also set on getting the $10 clone trooper set for Star Wars, as well as the new Lego Star Wars shirt.
Now, on with the Exo Force rant. These sets are great! The pieces you can get with them, the new-colored plug suits (That's what they're called in
to weekday Foxtrot comics. That's right. Sadly, Bill Amend has decided to stop doing the weekday Foxtrot comics.
There will still be the Sunday comic, though!
Foxtrot was my favorite comic of the newspaper. Yeah, I really enjoy Zits and Spider-man, as well as others, but Foxtrot was the highlight of my morning.
So, let's all remember how great Foxtrot is, and remember the clever daily strips.
And here's to sunday.
And if a certain comic writer is reading this, I ask him to plea
Well, I would like to bring in 2007 with a bang.
BANG!
So following with tradition since 6th grade, 2 friends and I got together to stay up past midnight watching movies and playing with Lego. All three of us (11th graders) spent last night building, discussing MOCing ideas (in all aspects of Lego), and playing on the computer, just to name a few.
I mentioned earlier we exchange christmas gifts at this time, basically because this is the time we see eachother after school lets out fo

I posted this in T-Hybrid's blog, and thought it was interesting enough to blog on. Basically my plans on Barraki.
So, that's what I'm hoping for. Between late Chritsmas gits, my birthday soon, and then me buying stuff, there it it.
-CF
well, I got two manga for christmas,
-Cowboy Bepop-Shooting Star
-Trigun Maximum
then I bought two at borders the next day,
-Neon Genesis Evangelion 3
-FullMetal Alchemist 3
and I borrowed a manga from the library,
-+Anima 2
and I also got this "manga" book for christmas. (I really don't like it. It is just comic claiming to be manga, it's left to right, they don't look anime-like. What it is is a book of 500 pages of people's comics, some good, some bad. Some seem like manga/anime,
Well, I got some nice gifts for Christmas. (And why isn't anyone else blogging about their gifts?)
Anyway, my parents figured out how to get me a $50 Lego set that would take up the least amount of space: Lego Viking Chess! Pretty cool, especially with 24 Minifigs, 8 silver spears, 12 ax heads, and 10 swords. I might just have to use some of these. (Or I'll keep it together if I find someone to play with....)
I also got Dalu, but that is basically it for Lego, except my two friends and
We'll see if I'm lucky to get online tomorrow, so I'm posting anything christmas today.
To start, I made a topic about decorating your christmas tree, Link here, it's pretty fun.
Second, on the name of this entry, I'm giving this a little more bionicle feel. You know, naming day! In one of the bionicle Adventures books, someone talks of Mata Nui riding throught the chutes and giving presents to matoran, so...Merry Naming Day!
Well, in my family, there is the tradition of opening one pre
So as discussed earlier, I made a MOC, somewhat looking like a Mecha.
Well, you decide. Either way it's cool. But it does have that Bohrok eye for a head (altough I almost put on a Kanohi)

That's right! Yesterday, I got an email from Borders giving me the name for Harry Potter Book 7. And the newspaper this morning confirmed it!
Drumroll please....
The name of the Seventh Harry Potter book is:
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows !!!
And it is rumored to come out on 7/7/07. Let's hope it's that or sooner!
