I've been quite busy entertaining company for the past two days, and as such, have unfortunately neglected updating my blog. I'll still be busy until tomorrow afternoon, so for now, I leave you with very serious question... How are you?
No, this is not a pointless entry.
Nor is this another pointless entry.

Well, as most of you know, I was gone July 7th through July 11th. I was at Lakewood Park Bible Camp in Devils Lake, ND, and it was awesome. Something else you may or may not know is that I have an eye problem. My right eye is 20/80 and my left eye is 20/100, and I've had contacts/glasses for almost 5 years. In that time, I've prayed for the healing of my eyes several times since then, but nothing had ever happened. In fact, my eyes were growing steadily worse. However, when that camp start
First off, in no way am I through with BZPower. BZPower is one of my favorite things in life, and I have no plans to leave it permanently (especially since I paid money for my Premier Membership).
I was at a camp from Monday to Friday and had no computer access at all during that time. I was talking to Kohaku Sunday evening, and we decided that instead of just saying "I'm off to camp; see you all in 5 days", it'd be funnier to say "I'm done with BZPower". I wasn't looking for more comments
I'm so excited for the upcoming total Lunar Eclipse next month. It'll start sometime around 7:30 PM (Central Time) and totality will begin at precisely 9 PM. This event will be visible to all of North America.
*waits impatiently*
Finished song #5 of my GarageBand music, and I'd like all of you to hear it. It's 4 minutes long, 100% custom, and the most awesome work I've produced yet. Believe me, if you listen to it, you won't be disappointed.

Please, tell me what you think!

Ok, I'm in the process of updating all the contest entries, and I'll get polls up tomorrow.
Once more, we have a reminder of the prizes.
1st - Banner and/or blog award stating that you took first! Special mention on the MOCotW page on nathan8472.com! Kanoka Disk of Time (yes, a real one)! 1 Banner and 1 Avatar of choice hosted at nathan8472.com (no brickshelf or maj downtime)!
2nd - Banner and/or blog award stating that you took second. Special mention on the MOCotW page on nathan8472.c
Bumping since it's Tuesday the 4th.
With the elections coming up really soon, I find myself curious about which candidate people people are supporting. I've seen a few entries already of people stating who their supporting, and I'd like to do the same.
I would like to make known, however, that I'm not locking this entry right away. I ask that you post here saying which candidate you support, but THAT IS ALL. There can be nothing else in your comment. I don't want to break BZP rules her
The previously mentioned total Lunar Eclipse finally occurs tonight. Earth's dark shadow moves across the lunar surface starting at 7:43 PM Central Time. Along the East Coast, the Moon sits 30° high in the dark eastern sky by then. For those on the West Coast, the Moon rises minutes after the partial eclipse begins, just as the Sun sets. If you're on a hilltop with a clear view of both the western and eastern horizons, you might get a unique opportunity to briefly see both the Sun and eclipsed M
So I'm in Williston right now, typing this out on a computer in a retirement home where my family and I are visiting relatives from my dad's side. I really enjoy my time here, much more than I did when I was younger, and I'd like you to note that I won't be home until tomorrow in the late afternoon. I say that because there's a moderate chance that I won't be able to get on BZP again until I get home.
Until then...

(Also, it's totally drier up here than it is in Glen Ullin. )
As most of you know, my Birthday is on Wednesday, but I got my present from my parents today. First off, you should know that on Monday, I have to go to Beulah (30 miles north) as soon as school's out and play pep-band for four different basketball games (districts), and then get home at about 10:30 that night. Although I enjoy playing pep-band, I am not excited about spending 7 hours with nothing but basketball games (which I don't really enjoy watching). When I complained to my dad yesterda
Almost...
Mario Kart: Wii; I now have one star next to my name, and I just unlocked Mii Outfit B. I've unlocked everything that there is to unlock in the game, and tomorrow, I begin the daunting process of getting two, and then three stars next to my name!

...visualize a member's physical appearance and personality by the pictures in their banner or avatar? I find that if a member has a picture of a person at all in either their banner or av, I sometimes (subconsciously) picture the member (and whatever he/she's saying) as that person.
Do you do that?
Star Trek Micro Machine sets. If you have any that you may be willing to trade or sell, LET ME KNOW. Please?
Also, played Portal for the first time on Saturday.
The cake is a lie.

I've been cleaning my room lately, and found a really cool picture in a really cool picture frame on my desk. The picture was taken in mid-May of 2005, at Epcot Center. One of the theme parks at Disney World in Orlando. The picture has me in it, and as most pictures of people on BZPower, my face is hidden... and by a much nicer one I might add.
Me at Mission: Space in Florida.
That was the best week of my life. Oh well, memories are all that matter.
Yep. I'm gonna be in Minot for the next three days skipping school. Three days straight of playing Gamecube, swimming at a big hotel's waterpark (that same hotel is attached to the mall BTW), and hanging out with friends.
*Pumps fist*
*Dies from awesomeness*

Well, Youth Convention is over, and it was absolutely incredible. I had so much fun, it's not even funny. I'm working on MOCotW a little now, and it should be up at/by 6 PM Central time.
In the meantime, I'd like to remind you once again to buy a copy of Epic Journey, just because it's that cool.

Well, my ultimate absence from BZP over the last several days can be attributed to mostly one thing; one of my cousins died a few days ago, and we're in a hurried rush right now to finish up our vacation and travel to Williston for his funeral Saturday morning. Unfortunately, my absence will continue until either late Saturday or mid Sunday.
