Day # 5 & 6: Star Wars and City Advent Calendars

Okay, days 5 and six for city:     On day five we get... a brick wall. Better than stairs? You decide! It comes with an axe and what I assume is a fire extinguisher (though why is it yellow?). it's okay I suppose... btu what does this have to do with christmas? I mean with star wars it's hard, sure, nothing christmas-y there, but really... all this fire stuff is strange. On day six we get a much more seasonal minifig, a little kid with an abundance of snowballs. This really adds to the feel so

Something I Noticed About Imaginaerum

As some of you know, I got Nightwish's new album Imaginaerum and have been listeneing to it fervently. However, while listening, I stumbled across some interesting things...   1. Take the song "I Want My Tears Back" - My favourite track, by the way, but skip to after the second chorus where the solo-y bit starts. Now open up Iron Maiden's "Dance of Death", and skip 'till there's roughly a minute or two left in the song where they sing "When you're lying in your sleep... 'till you're dancing with

Grad 2012

Well, I graduate high school in a mere 2 weeks. The ceremonies are this weekend. Me and my friends decided to do this a long time ago, but only now did it - our grad prank. The rest of the grad class has already done theirs (some great stuff, too), but we wanted our own.   A car...   We painted it saying GRAD 2012 and gave it racing stripes and smily faces and stuff; ripped the engine, doors and seats out aswell.   In the courtyard of our school.   We chained it to the manhole cover so nobody ca

Somewhat New Self Moc And A New One (This Title Is Very Grammatically Awkward)

So this here is my old self MOC (not really that old).   After my influx of new old sets from my friend (as mentioned previously), I had an urge to rebuild a lot of stuff. I needed some parts off this guy for the Tarakava, but I loved him too much to destroy. So I modified him a bit. I don't know if it's better or worse, but I like it, so yeah.   with more black mostly   So any thoughts? Like the modifications? No likey? Also, I've got a brand new MOC that you should all check out. (DO IT NOW)

Five Albums That Changed My Life

I saw this on a Roadrunner Records article, that they were doing a thing with bands about the 5 albums that had the biggest impact on their existence. I think it's cool, so I'm gonna' do it too.   #1: Good Apollo, I'm Burning Star IV - Volume One: From Fear Through The Eyes Of Madness - Coheed & Cambria   This album is first on my list because without it, I would not be the metalhead I am today. I went from liking Avril Lavigne and The All-American Rejects (both of whom I do still like) to

Well Jeez

Just had my 20th birthday last week and 3 days later my 10th BZP anniversary, and I totally forgot. I've officially been on this site for half of my life. Wow.   Also I get a nice new tohu spinny, pretty thrilled about that.

Day #9: Star Wars and City Advent Calendars

Finally caught up. Today we get a minifig in each calendar:     Nothing exciting here. A mechanic with a wrench. Though the hat appears to be a new mold; it has a curved brim rather than the flat I'm used to. Came with two of those and two wrenches. Otherwise unremarkable.   ----------------------------------------------------------     And here we have an imperial gunner, it appears. He looks either like the dudes firing the death star or the guy commanding the AT-ATs; i remember neither well

Fortunately, Unfortunately

Right, so:   Fortunately, I got to go snowboarding today. Unfortunately, I had to wake up at 10:00.   Fortunately, I tried 5 new runs, went down 11 times, and improved in overall skill. Unfortunately, I am now stiff as a rock, and everywhere hurts.   Unfortunately, our van's power died halfway home. Fortunately, we were on a flat stretch of mountain road (which is rare), so the lack of brakes wasn't a problem.   Fortunately, we got it to start again. Unfortunately, it died again about 5

Some Internet Orders

I finally managed to acquire a tad bit of money, so I went and bought a CD copy of Yes' "Fragile" with two bonus songs on it. I already had it on vinyl, but it was scratched and I really love the "America" bonus track. Plus it was just sitting there at walmart and I had to get it... it spoke to me.   Anyway, I had some money left over and nothing in town to buy, so I turned to the internet. I managed to find Rush's "Hemispheres" on amazon for $2, which was awesome, as well as a motherload of mas

It finally arrived

My copy of the limited edition deluxe set of Coheed's "The Afterman" finally came yesterday. They had some problems with lyric printing and stuff, thus the delay. Still, it's here now, and good lord is it gorgeous!     Descension being spun a taste of the inside     So yeah, and after reading the story in the book, it's amazing how good it is. Complete with some important moral decisions and plot twists, it's a really fantastic read.   Really really recommend this album to anyone half interested

mildly not-super-dull "adventures" in music college

so in ear training class today someone had written "What a friend we have in Jesus" on the board, so one of the other guys stood up in the middle of the class, erased "Jesus" and put "Jimi Hendrix."   Then we progressed into a lesson on suspended chords and another kid at the end of the lesson changed it to "What a friend we have in Gsus"

The Final Frontier

Is an awesome album. Just got it yesterday, and it's great. I wasn't ever much of a Maiden fan, but I'm getting there. Bruce's voice is really strained at times though.   When the Wild Wind Blows is the best song, in my opinion. It's so different from normal Maiden stuff.

korra take 2

I'm -still- having a hard time believing that it actually happened. that finale is all I've been able to think about the last few days between the ending and the fact that it's actually over. I was actually starting to stress out about what the creators would have to say, which route they'd take - but yet again I was relieved with the messages they posted. Good series, good world, good people.   Farewell to the coolest animated show since its predecessor.
