So, yesterday, it was pouring rain with high winds. And I had to go into a swamp to pick some winterbarry, which my brothers sell to florists - I'm kinda taking over the business after they moved out - and when I got home, I found out that i didn't even have to pick it, so I was soaked to the skin and a bundle over what I needed.
Then about ten seconds after I got back from delivering it, the power goes off. >.<
So yeah, what a day...

if I tried to make a birthday topic for every different member who has a birthday today. Then did the same thing the next day and the next...
Also, the RPG contest 20 is up, and I'm going with my HF crossover this time.

Okay, I was back Thursday, but thaty's how long I forgot/procrastinated around posting this.
Anyways, spent a week at my brothers, and had some pretty crazy adventures there. Such as climbing a nearby mountain, getting this majorly odd feeling, walking down a path, then coming out into a small clearing, with this alterstone in the center. I almost screamed.
It was majorly creepy.
But still, I got to spend evenings staring into a fire....
Anyways, please do not me to go to a link in
Okay, if you're

Then stay, 'cause this is our discussion topic.
Just a note, I'm gonna gone 'til Thursday, so no comments show 'til then, unless I get on the library.
Scratch that, I'm back.

Watching Full Metal Alchemist just before going to bed. I couldn't sleep for hours, the images were to vivid..
So there was this random dude going on a vengeance streak after his city was destroyed by the state Alchemist. The second I saw Scar, I knew how his voice would sound.
And yeah, seeing Alchemists getting their brains exploded from the inside was just mildly disturbing...
To Karz with my over-active imagination!
On another note, I'm going to have very limited internet access
Is that I somehow feel like I'm treading in someone else's story. I mean, in a Bionicle FF, I can create my own unique characters and locations. But due to the fact that I want it to feel even slightly like Redwall, I have to stick a bit to those Mata Nui forsaken stereotyped species.
Bleh.
So I'm trying to get to sleep, and my mind refuses to cooperate. And next thing you know, it's wandering off onto the similarities between the plots of Eregon and Star Wars Episode four...
I think that pretty much is a basic outline of both movies.
Amid the falling snow...
Anyways, Enya quote aside, I woke up yesterday to snow!
Yeah, it took me that long to blog about it.
*Sigh* snow.. Winter... I just can't wait!
And a question. What is your favorite part of snow? For me, it's just sitting there at night, with snow falling, and it's deathly quiet...
*continuers to sit there, staring into nothing.*
Have you ever noticed in Redwall, the usual plot.
bad dude wrongs hero. Hero goes on a revenge streak, killing bad dude.
Seriously. There are so many times in Redwall, when the villain is unarmed, defeated, and begging for mercy. Then the good character kills him in cold blood.
And it's portrayed as a good thing. Which really bugs me.
Another thing that's also portrayed as good, is gluttony. Seriously, if you look at the average hero (Especially hares ) they are total gluttons. It ju
So I was thinking of making an RPG based off my epic, A Fading Blaze. Although I'd probably have to take out the blatent Star wars copying.
Think it's a good idea?
Oh, and who else here loves writing scenes where good characters die by assassination?

So what if I name my computers?
err, whatever.
Anyways, to begin let me tell you about my family's nutty computers...
Oldie: Our oldest one, is a Pentium with windows 98 and no internet connection.
Freezy: The one I always use, it's a pentium three with windows 2000. And it freezes up like Karz.
Glitchy: Our newest one, it's a Pentium four with windows XP. And a glitch in the graphics card that annoys me to no end. And just recently it lost internet connection.
So my dad somehow w
But before that, happy (Late) all hallow's eve.
Anyways.
NANOWRIMO HAS BEGUN!!!!
And yeah, I was totally hyped up last night.
Got home from an awesome all saints day party at the Franciscan friars of the immaculate in Griswold at eleven or so, and started writing at twelve on the nose.
I'm half finished with the prologue already!
-Zarayna
Might as well let everyone know what my nanowrimo story is. Spoilered just in case.
A New Power Cometh

Synopsis: A New Power Cometh
In the land of Mossflower, a new power has arisen in the far south. A city of warrior foxes!
However, they are an odd bunch, and although they aren't good, they have a very strict and hard code of conduct.
However, Aknar, son of Askra, the fox ruler is growing tired of this life, and rebels, taking a f
I want to write something so bad. But I have to wait 'til November to do so. It's so annoying...
Anyways, I'm pretty sure that at least one part of my Redwall Fanfic will have to be toned down a bit to be kept BZP appropriate, due to the excessive violence I'm pretty sure it will contain.
Also, my attempt at some sort of horror is going good, although I doubt I'll be able to make it 'horror'
Oh, and KNI is officially an enemy of the Foireann, his pointless attacks have been gettin
Anyways, title aside. I'm doing Nanowrimo this year.
Unfortunately this means that I'm not going to be able to write anything else that much...
So it looks like I'm not going to write a PW story.
Also, another thing.
It's all over now.
What is? 'tis simple. My rivalry with the Seneca. I've told this to a few people already.
It's simple. I was a noob back then, and this was born out of my noobishness.
And I'm sick of it.
Sorry about that, Seneca.
But this doesn't me
So as you can see, I'm back to my permaname, Zarayna - Power of Sonics. Oh, and I changed the name of my blog. Creds to the idea goes to Macku: Toa of bubbles, from when she called Gata 'Gatanui - Power of Forum Mentors' in my member interview. Also, one thing I'm never doing. Listening to Leave out all the rest after a long day, when I have to write something that isn't sad in any way. On another note, my 3,000 post special SS is going good. -Zarayna
Well I'm a POBZPC. *Shrugs* it would have been nicer if I had done more to get it then send in a news report and get PMship twice... Oh well.
On another note, I found an old story snippet. And as it isn't something I can use, I'm posting it here.
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «.....Zarayna stood among the trees of the island he and his Toa Iden had fled to. He had the one thing he longed for here. Peace. A sigh came from the Toa of sonics. How could he ever enjoy peace
And rightly so. For both Inferna Firesword and Rising Moon have placed bounties on my head.
Is this justice? Is this right? No! I offered a reward for the capture of Inferna for a reason. She is guilty of destruction of private property. What, you ask? Why the door of the birthday topic of my dear friend, Dovydas! Yet they have no reason (besides the usual) for their unjust persecution of me!
So I ask you - nay, I beg you. Stop this injustice. Bring the two guilty ones to me!
*Angry m
This was crazy. Somehow the post office charged me $5.55 for priority mail on a package that should have cost $9.55 for priority mail.
Majorly odd.
Oh well. On another note, I got the package I sent in for BrickCon just came in a few days ago. So I'll have pics of them up in BBC soon.
And as my PMship is expiring in a week or so, my parents got me another years worth for my birthday.

Writer's Alliance.
It's awesome.
Now get over there and join it.
Go on!
On another note, I posted my story Never Goes away. And I did something I can't recall seeing anyone else doing. I named this song fic something else besides the song title (Figure.09)
And while I'm on the subject of writing, I'm almost done with chapter three of my Zarayna epic. Man, these heavy troops of Artakha's are not people you want to fight, I'll say that.
And Jedi master Zarayna makes his appearanc
I hate getting sick... I couldn't get to sleep until like one AM, and kept on waking up during the night. So I was a zombie in the morning. Right around the time I had to review Ak's latest comic as well as Dovy's newest epic.
However, I love herbal tea even more now...
On another note, the Toa Foireann have been formed, with Mangai as leader and Aderia as deputy. And me as that random team member.
And I had a million ideas for another Redwall fan fiction, but I can't write anything ri
So I was watching episode three today. It was awesome. But sad also. Especially when Fisto died.
And I was also reading a novelization of episode one. It was extremely good and well written. And explained a few things that confused me in the movie.
