I convinced (and irritated) my parents to take me to Toys R Us. So at 8:30 p.m we were at the store, and I saw them!
There they were!
The Stars!
I got Tahu, Rahkshi, and Piraka (Nektann). Perhaps I'll get the reamining 3 when I've paid off my toy debts that I owe... my parents
So I'm back from working nonstop for 2.5 weeks at a summer camp we lovingly nicknamed The Island (because you can't ever get off HAHAHA WE THINK WE'RE FUNNY). SO NOW THAT THAT'S DONE I can resume working on my seminar for BrickFair VA, as well as that SUPER SECRET PROJECT SUMIKI AND I ARE WORKING ON. But yeah, I'm doing a panel on the impact LEGO has had/can have on our lives (I call the panel 'Another Brick In The Wall' HAHAHA I THINK I'M FUNNY SOMETIMES). There will be some learning, a lot
Yes. As you can see from the title, BrickFair 2012 created a kind of rebirth in me. I was reminded why I ever liked BIONICLE in the first place. I was reminded of why I joined this site in the first place. And I was reminded that the people on this site are some of the most creative, funny, silly, smart, entertaining, and brilliant people on any corner of the Internet and the world. So, beginning today, I am reborn on BZP and pledge to do more stuff here. Huzzah!
BrickFair ended just two days ago, yet here is a small taste of what transpired. WARNING: May contain copious amounts of Sumiki, Xaeraz, and Zatth
And yes, this also means there are Omnibus videos from past years. The madness doesn't decrease in those either.
This is mostly for the few of you who follow A Mystery Explored, but it also applies to anyone who felt my presence or productivity decline over the past two weeks. I had an operation on Tuesday of last week for the removal of a polyp in my small intestine. Long story short, they snipped off a part of my intestine, sewed it back together, and I've been recovering since. Nothing to be alarmed over, I had great medical care, a very high pain tolerance which has the doctor and my parents amazed
"you win or you die. There is no middle ground." - Aegon the Conqueror (at some point probably) (In case you're wondering, yes, I did procrastinate all of my classwork for three days and turned my dorm room into a studio where I made a fully modular Iron Throne that can be disassembled and rebuilt on any dorm chair, as well as making the Valyrian steel sword Ice. Because procrastinating for Game of Thrones is always worth it.)
MOC Me Maybe By The Zatthman I threw a wish in the well, Don't ask me, I'll never tell I looked to you as it fell, And now you’re building stuff Don’t build some kind of Doc Ock, Pennies and dimes for a MOC I wasn't looking for this, But now you're building stuff Your hand was holdin', New techniques were showin' Inspiration flowin’ Where you think you're going, baby? Hey, I just met you, And this is crazy, But here's my picture, So MOC me, maybe? It's hard to look right, As you build
Hello, friends! Now that I'm done with a 48-page research paper I handed in for one of my classes (the one on the Sagrada Familia and the Library of Congress), and my remaining assignments are either presentations, papers, and a childcare manual, I've gotten back into trying to write and read daily, to make it into a habit again! But as a way to stop myself from using the excuse that "I don't know what to write about today", I want YOU ALL to provide me prompts! They can be prompts for BIONICL
Today I hosted a Doctor Who viewing party at my house; specifically, in the basement where I also keep all my LEGO. While cleaning my building table for food, I decided to build something since I hadn't done that in a while. I saw this one piece and decided to build a Dalek eye stalk, what with Asylum of the Daleks to air in a few hours. After I finished it, I tried to make the circular area, to no avail. So I started goofing around, placing it on my forehead, and using it as an eyestalk.
The panel was wonderful. The BIONICE team has kept us fans in mind, but also prepared for the new fans and context. I agree with (pretty much) all of their decisions on BIONICLE 2015. We also got to play and keep pieces from the sets. TLG is wonderful and I was so blessed to be invited by BZP and LEGO and to have this opportunity. Got to chill with other BZPers, and met the remaining cast of TTV. They are awesome and wonderful and boss. Finally, on the topic of Barnacles: Whether you like
14 hour bus ride to Peoria, Illinois for a Forensics tournament. It's the first big national tournament of the year, and as a measly sophomore I don't expect much success. But I'll still pour my heart out in my performances. At least the theme this year is Star Wars, so I hope to get a lot of pics with Yoda. And whoever else is there. Also got some good reading material for the trip, plus planning for NaNoWriMo. I'm also showing up at our parking lot at 4:45 a.m. as Pajama Deadpool. I'm no
Currently waiting to check out from GMIF. Wonderful two and a half weeks, as I previously elaborated. Tomorrow morning, drive to the Dulles Expo Center for good ol' BerkFer VA. Expect Xaeraz, Sumiki, and AT to carry my MOCs inside. Expect various vines and hats, maybe a pile of some sort. Expect random shenanigans, a seminar on Thursday that Xaeraz, Sumiki and I will give, and breadsticks. Many, many breadsticks. Expect the unexpected. Unless you can expect everything that's unexpected. In
(Subscribe for more silliness other networks were too wise to put on the air!) Okay, fine. Zatth update: School went well, Forensics stuff is done (FOR NOW), currently summering very summer fully.
At first I was gonna try and write comedic, but the blag title takes care of that. Rather, I'll just be thankful again for something like BrickFair. After so many years of BrickFair-ing, facilitated by a site like this, you realize just how lucky it all is. Being able to see friends once a year yet feel like you only said goodbye last month, being able to meet individuals who have at times been moderators and deity-like heroes, or members and usernames, and be reminded again that they are firs
So a friend of mine who knows very well about my love for puns decided to share a picture of some bread-related puns on my Facebook wall. Needless to say, another pun-loving friend of mine engaged me in the comments below. We were toast: Pablo: 'll have to punder on these jokes, because I was not bread to understand them Richard: I'm sure that you'll rise to the occasion Pablo. Pablo: Will I, dough? Richard: I'm sure you are. You're not one to loaf around. Pablo: All I'm getting from this is
Usually my life is measured by the days when I'm not in a hospital versus those when I am in a hospital or when I'm afflicted by a specific thing. Since moving to the U.S. when I was fourteen, my health had been the best it ever had been in fourteen years. In 2011, I used November to do and win NaNoWriMo, convincing myself that I could do anything, and continue writing as much as I wanted. Should've knocked on a lot of wood. Next year, as November was starting, I was taken to the hospital be
I've often mentioned that, just before BerkFer VA, I spend two and a half weeks cooped up on the GMU campus. For two years, I was a camper. For the past three, a staff member. I've mentioned that my going to camp in 2011 changed the course of my life: it got me into the activity I do even today, it convinced me to try out for the GMU team and thus attend George Mason, it gave me friends that have lasted to this day, and it changed who I am as a person in a myriad ways. To say I await for ev
