Writing Fail

Have you ever began work on an epic, only to realize after you've written two chapters that your main character's personality is totally different than how you first thought it would be?   Chapter editing time!

You Are A Horse

The bible book The Song of Songs is not usually the best place to find pickup lines that would work in today's society. At Catholic Underground yesterday, the singer was preforming a song he had written called the song of the song of songs. Evidently it would have been considered quite complimentary in Salomon's days, but imagining people using those lines in this day and age.   For example, the refrain was "Man: You are a horse. Woman: you are an apple tree. Man: You are a horse. Woman: you are

War Zone

So, a lot of you probably remember War Zone.   Well, coming this December, I present,   BZPOWER (POWERED BY INVISION POWER BOARDS)   In short 'War Zone 2'. It will have a very similar theme of disorder, but the backstory will be much different, and it will be a lot less sandbox. No, players cannot control a forum, seeing as about half will be anarchist wastelands and the rest will be already controlled by the remains of the staff.   Anyone interested in this? I'm looking for people willin

Story Fragments

Going through a word doc of fragments of stories can be pretty interesting.   Expect chapter one of a T/DH war story up soon. I currently wondering how I can tie it in with Strike From the Shadows, should that RPG win.

Blue

So, we finally got around to cat hunting. we went down to the local humane society and browsed their cats. We found a really friendly black and brown tabby. He's 3-4 years old, and definitely a large cat (15 pounds). For some reason, he was named blue. He was really cute, awesome and friendly.   ...And he covered my sweater in cat hair.   Hopefully, we'll have him by Saturday/Sunday/Monday.

Fasting

So, I'm sure most of you have heard of Kony 2012, and the day of silence this Friday. This got me thinking about that, so I decided to post a blog entry on the universal topic of fasting.   This is not essentially a religious subject, for it has many non religious applications. An atheist or agnostic can fast just as can a Jew or Muslim, and a baptist as much as a Catholic. Fasting can be used as protest, penance, respect for the deeds of others, or aiding in establishing greater self control, a

Superspeed Is Overpowered

And I speak from experience.   I just finished tweaking with Mount&Blade until my character could run literally almost as fast as an arrow. I also edited my character's weapon speeds so they could be swung at the same sped; ergo, imitated perhaps half the Kakama's speed, if that. I then put the game into slow motion.   The result? Let's just say that I could easily shoot or kill with sword a half dozen enemies before they could:   1: block. 2: raise a weapon. 3: move more than a few inches.

Break The Record On Bzp!

This year will be BZP's 10th anniversary. Thor Odinson had the idea that we try to break the record of 595 people online.   My response? LET'S DO THIS, PEOPLE!   So yeah, advertise and such.

Star Wars

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.   -Zarayna

Me And My Cat Knocked Over The Christmas Tree!

Yep, my cat batted an ornament, it fell down. I brushed against it, the tree fell down. I swear, it was staying up by some miracle, that's how badly we had set the base.     On another note, don't expect any MOCs from me for a very long time. You see, I still haven't been able to even upload the pics of my Brickcon MOCs. We lost our camera cord.   -Zar-

Omc Halt! You're In Peril!

As you can see from the title, I finally read Halt's Peril. I must say, John Flanagan writes suspense very well.   On top of that, changed my name again.   Also, working on my first CoT story The Quagmire!   -Zar-

My Belief On Why Bionicle Shouldn't Return

Alright, I've been thinking about writing about this for a while.   Bionicle has had a great run. Ten years of amazing story and sets. Then it gets ended. That itself was in my mind a good move on Lego's part. The newness of Bionicle had definitely gone, Bionicle was (at least for me) getting to be boring. The set designs were repetitive, etc.   Now, there's always the possibility of it returning in the future. Here is why I don't think that is a good idea.   If lego returned Bionicle, what a

Jesus Christ Is Risen Today

That song is officially one of the most epic hymns in existence (Aside from Adoro te Devote!), I'm currently playing it on my computer.   Have a blessed Easter, everyone.

A Slippery Slope

Anyone notice that? For instance, I relax my scruples on swearing; next thing i know, I find myself using an [Do not bypass the wordfilter or reference words that are filtered.-Nukaya]. And I can look around it and see examples pretty much everywhere. A steady decay of morals.   This entry has been brought to you by the deep thoughts of Zarayna, a company dedicated to providing the readers of Zarayna's blog with some random deep and profound thoughts.   -Zar-

I'm Crazy

I'm crazy. I just went to my archery team's awards night with an ear infection. And to top it off, I was extremely sleep deprived and had just woken up. Meh, if it hadn't been for the aspirin I had downed before hand, I would have been practically groaning in pain.   I'm pretty sure that I looked like a zombie.

Rest In Peace

Rest in peace, saint Valentine. Although practically nothing aside for your position as a priest and bishop, and your martyrdom at the hands of emperor Claudius in third century, when you tried to convert him to Christianity is known, your name has become the title of a holiday more celebrated, at least here in America, than the feastday of any other saint. The only thorn is the fact that the only thing celebrated on this day is love and the mass eating of chocolate.   So happy feastday of saint
