Omg... Been so long since I did anything Bionicle-related.

A single man runs around the streets of New York City. It is a desolate place now, filled with litter and the stench of decay as a remnant of a past culture simply vanishes. Buildings are tumbling, their slow rumbles of destruction echoing around the alleys and bouncing off the rubble. This lone man, armed with only a peashooter and his wits, is running from the massive battle raging and comi

Master Tash Yvonne was a master of the Force, manipulating it to a molecular level of efficiency. Over forty years of serving the Jedi Order to her credit, there was little in the galaxy that could contest with her. She had been known as a ruthless killer when the need called for it, and had no remorse for murdering people who were deemed evil. To some, she was a guardian to the Jedi and to the galaxy's people. To others, however, she
I stand a high chance at going to Brickfest in Portland, thanks in no small part to the bugging I gave my mom about it. XP
So, um, any chances a BZPer will be able to pick up a random hitchhiker along I5N?

Maybe I'm sensitive little kid, maybe I'm just someone who loves seeing people succeed, but here's something about me.
I can't stop crying when watching The Biggest Loser. Especially this season.

Just wanna put it out there that my dad has less than a year to live. Could be next moment, could be next week or even month, but from a logical and medical standpoint, he won't last until '10.
I won't add details unless asked to do so, though.

Year two-thousand and eight (edit: whoops!) proved a wild and yet wonderful year to me.
It all started with the Times Square ball dropping nearly a year ago, signaling the start of the year. January was rather boring, to be truthful, though my first time staffing a Boy Scout activity was nice, as I enjoyed warm enchiladas in the snow while others huddled around Cup o' Noodles. What a wonderful Klondike.
February was a droll, though there was a happy moment when Dad found that his bladder
Something of a confession here.
I've gradually become a relatively respected figure in real life, garnering a favorable reputation with adults and other people. In Scouting, I'll agree that I do have my merits, knowing the method of the BSA inside and out and getting along well with administrative officers, and I am of course a leading figure in my troop for a reason, having much knowledge in the fields of survival and other outdoor skills (though no match for CJ's, I'm sure xD). However, I
*sigh*
I realize I've not been at my tops lately. On BZP, I've accidentally posted in [obviously] dupe topics and made a couple posts that got deleted later because they should have been edited into newer posts. In real life, I've just been more sluggish and just accomplished less.
I dunno. Maybe I should take a break? No, I can't do that... BZPs the only interaction I've been getting lately, and if I cut that, I'll get worse. Maybe if I just measure myself better and eat healthier.
With that day coming fast, I just wanna wish everyone a Merry Turkii Eve. May your days be filled with colored eggy goodness and lots of scary crossdressing goblins down the street and with overweight strangers in your house that your kids just love to see. The moms and dads, with their special times, holding fourleaf clover over their heads as they share a passionate kiss and a box of chocolates, will lead the parade celebrating independance as the crystal ball decends over Times Square.
Ah,
This is a Scoutmaster Minute that I used at my troop's most recent Court of Honor. I did not make it, rather took it from a Scouting rescourse site and narrated it as I saw fit at the time, but this is the verbatim text from the site.

A good positive attitude can truly change the way you approach life, and your future. Let me illustrate with a short story.
A few years ago, there was a wildlife organization out west that offered a bounty of $5000 for wolves captured alive.

This is a trance/dance song by Armin van Buuren, Who Is Watching as performed by Nadia Ali. Like many other songs, it means something to me, and this one sums up my current life.
It mainly describes my dad, who was once on the top of the world, in charge and loving it. But he got full of it, destroyed his friendships and broke up with everyone, and now he's at the bottom on the lake struggling to be alive, and even now he looks for happiness that he destroyed long ago. It's heartbreaking, rea
OMG YAY OBAMA WON!!
And due to the fact that elections ended over a week ago, and this is either well-known or you live in a mountain cave with no media access and thusly could not know about this anyways, IMA LOCKIN my ENTRY.

Estimated monetary loss:
$350.00
The thing is, I never recall any time when those items could have been lost. The iPod is almost always with me; the camera is it's pouch and in my duffel; the book is understandable and I think I remember where is it, but still...; the sweater I have no clue about; same can be said about the helney and the T-shirt.
On trips, electronics are p
