BrickFair was amazing this year, special thanks to Janus for the orange Vahi and Arpy for the metallic blue Toa Mata feet! (You guys are amazing)
There's probably nothing more I can possibly say that hasn't been said elsewhere, but the entire event was just spectacular. Even for a while after BrickFair ended things were amazing.
Everyone was just so fantastic, and with my memory I'll never be able to name everyone there of BZP, but Nuju Metru posted quite a good list of everyone!
I'd
I figured out how Microsoft Word 2007 works~
Well, how it works to the point where I can meet all the schoolwork guidelines and not have to do it the painfully hard way.
Only took me a few years...
(I also stuck a pic of Alucard in this blog because he's cool)
I don't know why I feel like blogging this, but I am.
So I learned that walking around, upstairs and in the dark, is a very, very, very bad idea for me. I'm not a very graceful person on my feet, and I tend to smack my foot into things like walls and doors a -lot-. Basically, I was walking near the stairs that lead downstairs, made a turn to go down them and smacked my foot on the side of the staircase. I ended up falling down the stairs, very noisily, and wound up on my back on the floor.
So, on Tuesday when I was conveniently not home and was busy at a location 30 minutes away, there was an owl outside that was looking around. However, my sister took some pictures of it (lots of them being very blurry), but I hunted down one of the pictures that is really clear (To me at least).
So yeah, here's the picture of the owl.
I am amazingly excited for BFair (Last year was a blast, and I didn't even do that much), I just hope I can get everything I need to get done before the event. Lot of it is physical paperwork and notifying some people (Need to notify the head of the School Newspaper Staff Administrator that I can't make the staff meeting on the Seventh...). Some of the paperwork is just me needing to finish my school reading projects (Need to get some things drawn out and the blasted printer working ><), w
I feel really excited for it, given, it's right around the corner at this point (And not like... four months away anymore). Still need to make some MOC's for it (A crab, and finishing that one thing I've had legless/armless for the last year).
It'll be fun~
It was a great movie =)
Also -- Final Fantasy XIII, I bought it and it's sooo much fun. (I spent Gamestop store credit on it, not real cash... and got five bucks in real cash back, oddly enough... even though the store here was twenty bucks more expensive than what Blockbuster was selling it for).
I also just figured out what this trailer I watched back in 2007 was about... and the game's not even out yet, funnily enough. (FFXIII Versus is what the trailer was of, I thought it was just a K
Some people will throw a fit over the silliest things. Even though, in some cases, I can see where they are coming from, but it's just a bit extreme even then to yell/complain and call other people names over something so little. (Talking about a hobby, thus the "little" portion as I don't really view luxuries as "priorities" thus they being "small").
I guess I blog this as it's a twenty year-old something or other throwing the fit and a twelve year old was able to voice his concerns in a fa
I am this close to stabbing a pencil through my head.
For the last week I had an idea, a first in a while (And not related to a currently unfinished epic, which may remain unfinished until I really get back into the swing of things), but I constantly had the issue of how to write it out. Cinematically (aka: Visual images playing out in my mind... FF says it's not a word, but I don't care) everything always looks so neat and it makes me interested.
Then I write it, and it sounds dumb and
- Finished;
Math Final (Math final averaged grade: B+ --- I'm terrible, absolutely horrible, at Math.)
English Final (Got a 96% on it) average final: A.
3D Animation Final, Final Grade: A+.
French Final (Dunno any numbers) -- Received a certificate and chocolate of "Highest Average in the Class"
PE Final (Ran a mile, walked a mile) -- Was told that I probably improved the most of everyone else present.
- Tomorrow;
Biology Final
Ancient Civilizations Final (If I fail this one, or g
I have straight A's as of today, except for one 89 average in Biology... which will hopefully turn into an A after the test~
Plus, my essay apparently made it to semi-finaldom (Finalists got shirts, certificates and presented at the Spirit Assembly a while back, Semi-Finalists get certificates ).
What's funny is that I seriously just rushed that paper, like... I wrote it in less than an hour, the night before it was due... << >>
But I feel smart anyways. :3
Also, gun sa
So I bought some books today, Flyboys (Currently on page 22), Forest Mage (Second book in the Soldier Son Trilogy), The Children of Hurin (Heard too many positive reviews of this book to pass it up)
So far, I find Flyboys to be an interesting book. Not one that has a happy atmosphere, but then again, such a tale would hardly warrant it. I picked it up because of the title, as well as the fact that it was a story from WWII I haven't heard previously and is roughly the first I'd have read in te
So I took up fencing recently, first class was today, and it's quite interesting as well as fun. The instructor stated that so far, I'm her best student.
Though, I won't be able to do it next week... 'cuz I got firearm training (class) Thursday for two hours and then the actual target-shooting on Saturday (four hours).
I have a lot to study.
Also, to individuals who may or may not need me in TBRPG's: I'm really busy with school/other learning/talking to the High School Administration to see if I can push for a program/preparing and getting ready for fencing while also doing some more physically demanding things to get in better shape... so don't expect me to be fast to respond to things. If it's a problem, send me a Personal Message.
On BZP, I have some time for it, but it's mostly reserved for Staff-
So I completely forgot to work on any of my Biology stuff last night, and it was all due today. But then crazy weather happened.
So I go to school, like normal, but right before my Biology class... school ends early and it's a mad rush to get a spot on one of the buses.
I was like "wow... I really lucked out here..."
This week, at my High School, was "Spirit Week" so a lot of interesting things ended up happening through the course of the week. From people dressing in odd things, to the band playing all over the place;
- Monday
On Monday, there wasn't much new. People came to school normally, as we weren't really told what the dress-theme was for the day, besides for the teachers who all dressed up to fit the theme that I can't remember. Monday was a very uneventful day of the week, being the most norm
I'll be there, and I'm all signed up to go. You can easily pick out me from the attendee list, cuz like... well, it's rather obvious.
But yeah, I'm rather pumped for the more space, and also 'cuz I got a room in the now booked Holiday Inn~
My hand fell into a cactus, I pulled out all the obnoxious pins and needles, but my hand happens to still sting a fair bit. Nothing that's acute enough to the point where I can't close my hand or use it, it's just rather irritating.
I also dislike it when I send someone a question, and once they get my question, they don't log in for the next two days.... I might copy/paste it and ask someone who's more... around.
It brings excitement, anxiety, and a bit of dread. (Dread more being that I have no idea what'll be assigned in school tomorrow... none of the teachers really update the calendar, so for all I know, someone could be all like "HUGE PROJECT" or "BOAT OF HOMEWORK" the latter being harder... cuz I'll have about two or three hours of free time ._.)
I'll start with the "Weird" part, 'cuz that falls right into the delay aspect. So, basically I ended up calling the Captain of the nearby USCAP squadron, at first the call went somewhere and to someone who said to call back later. Then, later, the line was disconnected and apparently wasn't reconnected in the next four hours. <__< Oh well, at least now I'll need to wait until Tuesday for my schedule to get mauled over to a change (Well, technically, about 15 days after Tuesday).
Though
