I seem to make this post at least once a year I plan to stick around this time, though. I always say that too but I really mean it! I hope I'm running a tumblr blog now so I'm just really torn between that one and this one. What do I post where?? I'll probably use this one more for day to day things, since I avoid getting too personal on there and focus on making gifs out of scifi shows and posting my artwork. Anyways, through tumblr I discovered a Bionicle community off of BZP (WHAT A DISC
Yesterday, I went outside, and I decided to go to the park. And who do I see there? My friend from elementary school, my best friend since 2nd grade (who I haven't seen in years), and my favorite lunch teacher from elementary school. I swear iot was the funniest thing, because she acted like we were close friends, and we hugged an everything. It was sorta weird. Has this ever happenened to you? Do YOU have a very nice lunch teacher?
It's almost 2016, the 2016 bonkle sets will come out soon.... will all the 2015 sets be gone and impossible to get my hands on now? I only have three of the Toa and two Protectors, this is unacceptable but I don't have spare cash right this moment to get 'em (and I just detest having to order things online for some reason, it just bugs me; I much prefer to waltz into a store and find what I need and go through the whole process). How does this stuff usually go? I'm mainly worried about the o
A couple days ago, BZPower's 16th anniversary, happened to also be my account's 10th anniversary! Wow! 10 years of this. Can't believe it A lot's gone on since I last really checked in! I somehow managed to claw my way through my undergrad program and finish a whole thesis film and graduate; I am now a proud Bachelor of Fine Arts in Computer Animation! Fancy. Personal life's been through all sorts of ups and downs but now I'm in a nice place where I'm working on my portfolio while I look fo
So far this semester, a combination of snow days, gas leaks, taxi accidents, and miscellaneous teacher excuses have led to all of my classes having been cancelled at least twice, some more. Today's animation class was cancelled for whatever reason, putting us a solid month behind in that class. Not only did we lose 4-5 weeks of the most crucial class to our future careers, but we were supposed to have the best computer animation teacher in the school (this guy won multiple Emmy's!) until he got
I can't believe this movie was two and a half hours long, 'cause it flew right by. Incredible. I love it. I'm just in awe. Gotta see it again just to really absorb everything cause there was so much going on. I love all the tracking shots. They must have really enjoyed the big New York City tracking shot from the first movie that was so famous, 'cause there's like at least three more in this one and they're all even more ambitious. I desperately need to see those shots again. Just gorgeous.
So I woke up an hour early, and went back to sleep cause I wanted to finally get that full 8 hours. I woke up 4 hours later, which would be a full hour after class has started, somehow having turned off my half dozen alarms in my sleep. Frustrated that I missed a whole class which I was looking forward to going to, I fell back asleep for another 3 hours. Now I'm sitting here trying to do my animation homework and I've been stuck for a half hour with this one triangle shape and I can't even get i
This morning, or rather, afternoon, I woke up two hours after my five hour class ended Basically overslept by like 9 hours. This isn't the first time I accidentally slept right through a class, but it's definitely the longest I overslept by. I remember setting my alarm so obviously at some point I woke up and turned off all handful of my alarms one by one, completely delirious. I'm so mad, that's so many hours I could've been working. I didn't even go to bed that late, it was like, the ear
...Tomorrow~ I saw Annie and it was really great, and I loved seeing all those shots of New York City cause I'm getting a little homesick. They mentioned pomegranates twice, so, basically, it's a 10/10 movie. Go see it right now. I've been having Bionicle dreams like every night now, it's getting out of hand. I need those sets before I lose my mind. HOW IS THERE NO TARGET IN THIS TOWN? I've waited five years, I can't go any longer. They're so close, but so far. New Years was really gr
In classic Pomegranate fashion, it's the end of the month and everything has piled up into one blinding, flaming deadline zooming towards me. In classic Pomegranate fashion, I expect everything to get done and meet that fiery end of the road with honor and probably a lot of screaming. Thankfully, Thanksgiving dinner completely knocked me right out and after many months my sleeping schedule is finally back on track. I finished inking the entirety of my Thousand Likes entry so I'm painting it no
I'm on a diet! Less useless calories and more delicious veggies! And by that awkward metaphor I mean less quantity and more quality! Which refers to posts! That I'm making! ...yeah. I just felt a need to come up with an explanation for me new display name. After I renamed myself "The Dark Hunter" I realized I was being too general and nobody could really talk about me without everyone being confused. So, I had to come up with some way to separate myself from the masses. Thus, Low-Carb. It's ve
Wow! It's been so long! Aside from a very short visit last July, I haven't been here in, well-- I don't know! Perhaps a year? Perhaps more; two even? However long it's been, it has been far too long! I'm back everyone! I'd be very flattered if any o y'all might remember me--I've gone by a few names over the years: dark hunter 554, The (Low-Carb) Dark Hunter, etc.-- because I sure as heck remember many of you! Coming back after all that time, and just browsing through the new topics and active
Wait hold on whatever happened with that System Based Creations contest from Chima month I have completely forgotten about it and I haven't seen anything about it since it ended
I'm not gonna answer any questions, I ain't no sucker; tell me all your secrets instead. Spill the beans. I know you're guilty. just under 750 kb mwahahaha
Don't you hate when you take a bunch of pictures of your new MOCs to put up on BZP so that you can peacefully take it apart without worrying about putting it back together, when suddenly- BOOM! Your parents erase everything on the camera because they already uploaded their old pictures yesterday, and didn't notice YOURS. It's really frustrating, isn't it? And another thing. My camera is really bad when it comes to uploading cause it wont upload on the main computer for some reason. So I have to
Ah, summer vacation. A time so beautiful... and I've wasted the half of it already. Has anybody here in my situation, where you jut sit at home in front of the TV and computer, the occasional bionicle set, and barely do anything, I don't know? Fun? Creative? Useful? MY life stinks.
The hero pack stickers are beautiful and I don't know what to stick 'em on! My phone is my first instinct, but I don't think they'll stick well to my case and will prolly not fare well with all the handling and my pockets. Suggestions, please! What do y'all do with yours?
It happened again. I was gonna pull an all-nighter recording and editing a commercial for my Digital Video class, and technically I succeeded, I passed out around 6-7 AM waiting for my mom to leave for work so that I wouldn't disturb anyone. I woke up at 12:59 noon, an hour late for class. After crying for a half hour since this is the third time I've accidentally slept right through this class and three absences is an automatic failure, I was finally able to put the numbers together and reali
I wanted to say "calling it" but we know so little right now that I can't claim to be confident in this, but anyhow, I'm theorizing that the Toa came from the Ancient City or whatever-- like, they were sent up into space or wherever by the ancient Okoto society that made that the prophecy drawings that the village elders show us in the animations, or possibly by an even older group of Okotans. I just realized that's basically saying "I bet it's exactly like in the original Bionicle" but I forgot
Some new stuff came up today And all I'm gonna say is that they are beautiful and I am so so so so happy and I want to scream I'm gonna buy 'em all and nobody can stop me In other news, I finished HIMYM just now. I cried like a baby. I was sobbing and blowing my nose and making those ugly crying noises for like 10 minutes at least. I got it spoiled for me so I knew what was coming and I still wasn't ready. I'm gonna start crying again if I think about it for too long.
A very generous person gave me a download code, so I'm about to snuggle up with this 3DS and never sleep again I sure hope I can remap the controls or something, 'cause my shoulder buttons are dead Oh thank goodness, one of 'em works! I always knew he'd be the one <3 Edit: Please don't double comment! -Wind-
In this timeline, it's just known by another name: Amiibo. I picked up a Zelda amiibo yesterday (my bud and I are going on a massive Wave 3 hunt this Sunday, I'm gonna get Megaman) and in less than 4 hours it went from being a baby that couldn't land a hit to an unstoppable killing machine that got 8 of the 11 KOs in a match that involved myself and two Level 9 CPUs getting obliderated and tossed around like dolls for a few minutes while this artificial monster just slowly walked around like i
How did we go from this to this? They called it a Skyblaster but we all know what it really is, it even shoots to-scale cannonballs. We're onto you, Greg. #GoneTooFar #EndUnnecessaryBionicleCannonization
