HEY, do you wanna feel SO ENERGETIC? Try BBC CONTEST 61. A contest for people who need GRATIUITOUS AMOUNTS OF MOCs. With all new MANLY MOC EXAMPLES like BUFF ELECTRIC-O'CHOCOLATEMILK, it's like adding MOCS to an ELECTRICAL CHOCOLATE STORM. Sound the alarm, you're gonna be UNCOMFORTABLY ENERGETIC while you MOC. What's that? You want STRAWBERRY MOCS? Well how about GRISTLE MCTHORN-LIGHTNINGBERRY? He's made with LIGHTNING, real lightning. Sports (AAAHHHHH!). You'll be good at them. It's an ene
Snail helmet. That image link above is a design I did for a helmet design contest a local bike company was doing. Basically, design a helmet based off of a certain brand of helmet makers helmets (which often "feature whimsical, ironic, sometimes loud, other times just plain pretty designs"), and then we'll pick our favourite and the designer gets a $500 gift card to our store. Now, this was something I'd heard about a few weeks before, but forgot about until Friday, the day before it was due

Watch out. In other news, I am supposed to do a documentary photography project for photojournalism. It is supposed to last for the next nine weeks (until the end of term). Each week I am supposed to shoot at a minimum either one 36 exposure roll of film or the equivalent 75 digital images. The instructions talk about how we are not supposed to choose a subject matter that is too grandiose, or requires traveling (given the amount of bad weather we've been having). My professor gave ideas such

Very late posting these to maj, but the mix of a backlog of editing and uploading many other photos and school/other priorities kept them from being posted until now. I think my only request is if you or anyone wants to use these photos for something (a photo of one of your MOCs, a photo of you, etc.) please message me and ask first. I generally don't mind, but if I start finding my photos being used without my permission, I'll be sad that people are stealing and thinking it's ok and I'll like
My New Year's Eve (aka, the night of the warning signs) was spent at first in a venue with three of my friends. One of them had suggested the venue as it was all ages and one of the bands had graduated in the same high school class as us and they had been pretty good then so we figured it'd be cool to see them again. This was quite fine and dandy until the guy who took our money said: "Yeah, just head down the stairs to the basement. Careful, the stairs are slippery!" (warning sign #1) We pr
is awesome. Also, the minifig series wave 3 is pretty cool, but finding specific ones is difficult. But, two Toys 'R' Us stores later, we got a snowboarder and an elf! Buses also suck. Bleargh.
See ya! I won't have my computer with me until the 21th, and I don't know how much internet access I'll have until then. Home, let me come home. Home is wherever I'm with you.
At least, that's what the temperature was the other night at school. Luckily, I'm home for the next few days for Thanksgiving Break, where it is slightly only warmer, but hey, at least home has electric blankets. Also! Black ice on the roads is scary, and almost crashing is even scarier especially when the freeway going from school to home has tons of wrecks in ditches, and you see them and it's like "Hadthemediannotbeentherewhenthecarstartedtofishtailthatcouldhavebeenuslet'snotfreakoutnowok."
HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS PART 1 WAS SO GOOD AND OH MAN THE MIDNIGHT VIEWING WAS PHENOMENAL EXCEPT FOR THE WHOLE THIS TOWN IS DUMB AND PEOPLE DON'T KNOW HOW TO HAVE FUN OR GET INTO THINGS I HAVE PHOTOS THAT I WILL GET UP LATER AND OH MAN IT WAS TOTALLY AWESOME. I got home at three AM. I am really tired and I have to work later at the gallery and start and finish two papers, a group project, and a photography assignment by Monday.
Oh c'mon man, we want you to get better so we can get that championship one of these years! It's eighth week. Things are crazy. I am slightly overwhelmed. Next Wednesday, I'm hitching a ride with one of my roommates to go home for Thanksgiving, but the entire side of the state that we're coming from is going to get absolutely pounded by storms and snow. Apparently there's a 50% of snow this weekend, and I'm doing a photo shoot for a gal who used to be on the track team and her family this S
My username on here has never made much sense. When I first joined, I think it was something like "MatoranHahli707". Way cheesy, way silly, rather mundane, and really accenting on the fact that I liked the number seven. Then, I changed it to "Nukaya Cloud Fire", mainly because it had a better ring to it. I have no idea where the name Nukaya is originally from. I know I found it in a book during middle school and wrote it in a notebook of quotes and cool names I had compiled while I was reading
pepperoni cheese spinach spinach spinach cheese turkey cheese bagel That was a good lunch. Also: some photography stuff! Pinhole camera: And from the movement/time assignment:
In a similar vein to Smeag's material things entry, I was dreaming about camera lenses last night. Unfortunately, unless I go with some really cheap used ones (but no guarantee that they'll be in as decent quality as the sellers claim), I can't afford anything like that photography-wise currently. Ah, someday.... In other news, I am in like crazy photo mode all the time now. It's kind of great. ALSO: pinhole camera photos, just as soon as I scan them in.
'Tis very fun. Edit: I feel as if people don't know what the differences between film photography, digital photography, and filming a video are any more. This worries me slightly.
Happy 22nd anniversary, Mom and Dad! <3 Also, getting to run the control board in the radio station while we do a live broadcast from my college's homecoming parade is going to be pretty cool later today. Provided it all works correctly.
Dear house, Ok, I'll accept that you were built some time around 1903. It makes you very awesome and cool-looking and all Victorian-era-y, but oh my goodness for the love of everything, why are you not more insulated. I think it's warmer outside than in my room right now, so I guess that sleeping outside on the porch might be slightly better, but that would involve a lot of things being moved outside, and for all I know, I'll get eaten by mountain lions or something, because this is the middle
