Only a week or two into my premiership and the existence of the House of the Rising Moon, but it's really taken off [the blog] thanks to, well anyone reading this! What d'you think of it? What d'you think I should add in? Do you visit regularly/going to start? Any ideas for entries? The whole blog is for you anyways--speak up!
Why was law made? Easy answer--Law was established to maintain order of the people. Law was made solely for the benefit of the people; it made known necessary boundaries that if obeyed, humanity could potentially live life tot he fullest and safest. Law is made as an assurance for mankind, and should not exist as its own entity.
What ticks me off is that it does. Modern legal study and activities in court aren't about benefit of the human kind, they're about loop holes and technicality. Law h
Ohez noez, missed an entry yesterday! Happy birthday, here's two to make up for it.
For yesterday's, I have a question I wonder often. People always are asked, 'What would you do if you could change the world?' Obviously, there's more than one thing I'd change. But say I force only one answer on you. If you could change one thing, and only one thing, about the world at large, what would it be, and why? What's your second answer, and what does the first have that makes it comes first?
This was inspired by the total leap of faith in the Writers' Alliance--Within days of its initiation, twenty members practically dived out of their way to participate in it. Almost overnight, it grew into what may be still months from now a real community of members. Not only will it, assuming it succeeds in its mission, influence all of writing both on and off BZP--which in itself is a truly incredible feat--but it will live as a group of members, banding together for a common cause and belief.
John Lennon left a gift to the world. That's something every human being strive to do. Many would give up their lives, wipe themselves from existence in this world, to leave behind a legacy. John did something more--he left a true gift to a whole world.
Take a moment to look past what he's done, who he is, forget any opinion of the man himself. He swayed world views. People changed how they lived their entire lives and who they were because of him. And what's even greater and harder, in my op
You might notice that little bit in my sig about joining a 'group that will revolutionize writing on BZP.' Allow me to explain.
I was surfing around BZP one day, specifically COT; I noticed a disturbing, almost total lack of any written works. There used to be a new SS or Epic chap almost every day by some author or another, and now it seems any trace of such activity has been wiped off the face of the earth by the author's deadly enemy, the eraser. The Epics and SS forum show similar signs,
Got any ideas for an entry you'd like me to write about? Got a topic you feel strongly about you want me to ramble on about for you, or something you think could add to the flavor of the House? Let me know here, I can do it for no extra charge.
Also, guys, seriously--check back here! I'll have an entry up probably daily, almost definitely at least twice a week every week. They'll hopefully be interesting, and if they're not let me know--this is for you! Come back here, advertise the House, e
They're fantastic right?
I mean, what other day can I wake up at 10:30 and think, 'Ah, I missed school--oh wait, weekend!' and fall back asleep for another hour and a half.
Seriously, whoever made these things is a genius.
Anyway, real-blog-entry-#1! My aunt's in town for a few weeks, and we watched Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland last night. We watched the first twenty minutes or so of Edward Scissorhands first--also Burton--before switching to AiW. And man, that man is a genius. It'
Yes.
So some time before October 1st, 2010, I bought premiership! Of course, this led to the publication of what's (at least, at present) the House of the Rising Moon. Just a little entry to welcome you to my blog, and say a few things.
So, welcome!
Well, this is a blog. That means I'm going to talk about things--hopefully, things you guys'll want to know. Things like writing, RPGs, some generic things about me, some hopefully exciting or funny things about the world or BZP, etc. You k
An incredible 8-minute techno/alt rock remix of the masterpiece that is the [American] Killers' Mr Brightside, also by them. Go listen to it, and just let yourself go. As one of the figures who probably most influenced me musically said, 'Turn your brain off, man!'
Does anyone have the acoustic chords to it?
It's common knowledge that every January 1st, people like to reexamine their lives and ultimately hope to remodel themselves; to start fresh, in a sense. I just want to take a closer look at that process of reexamination, particularly the reason for its existence in the first place.
The Year Starts Over, So Why Shouldn't I?
This is the most common answer you'll get if you ask a guy off the street why he makes New Year's resolutions. Let's expand on that thought for a moment. We are creatur
So, I log on to BZP a few days ago, and naturally the forums appear. I browse for a bit, head over to my blog, decide to post an entry...I have this nagging sensation tugging the back of my mind. Something exciting that hadn't been around for a few months had occurred...couldn't put my finger on it. A couple minutes of peculiarly pensive pondering and I settle decisively that it must've been that turkey sandwich I'd had that morning--I hadn't had deli in an extended period of time. BUT SERIOUS
Didn't actually turn out at all as I wanted it to, but I still really love the end result. I may use the Painter again, for some characterization. Lemme know what you think!
Periodically, I'll post an entry with some info on my book in the works. It'll start out vague, and get more detailed with each entry. Let me know what you think!
--The book spans the life of a warlord--but from a personal perspective, not in the context of the war. As such, the book largely revolves around char development, as opposed to heavily plot-based.
--Three primary chars are named Eth, Shi-Va, and a mute assassin-for-hire whose name is TBD.
...Please hang up and try again when he feels like talking to you.
Going to be offline for tonight and a fair portion of the first half of tomorrow--sleeping over at a friend's to jam on guitar and write music. Scores for the WA and PM replies will happen soon as I get back and I'm able to; really sorry for anything I'm delaying.
See you guys on the forums!
It's pretty clear I've been notably less active recently--in every forum, keeping up some hopefully potentially really good entries, comments in the House, PMs. I've been weighed down by some major school assignments, and loosing the stress offline, not to mention extracurricular activities. Can't guaruntee just when I'll be totally back on-track, but I can give a sincere apology. I feel really sorry to anyone I've been letting down, but as soon as I can I'll try to get back up with everythin
