    So, as I'm cleaning out my room at home (more on this soonish, I'm undertaking a huge project to revitalize my room and make it sweet place to chill), I found a binder with Bionicle comics 1-25 all in fairly good condition. So basically, you may see this collection pop up on eBay in the near future. So if you're interested in owning some good ol' Bionicle history, you should keep your eyes peeled.
     
    Also, I do believe I just started 3 sentences with the word "so."

    Why am I still awake? It's nearly 4 am where I live. So many things on my mind lately, I haven't slept well at all of late because of such. Why does life have to be so confusing and frustrating sometimes?

    Soooooo, I got this fancy blog thing again it seems, so I may as well use it I guess.

    So welcome to my blog reboot, The Colour And The Shape. Enjoy your stay.

    Anyway, here's a handful of things going on with me at the moment for those that care about what your resident Q&A Guru and Global Moderator is doing.

    -College! For those that don't know, I'm a Computer Science major at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire. I'm currently in my second semester of my freshman year.
    -Xbox 360. I've been playing my Xbox 360 to death recently. Gears of War 2 is getting a lot of time in the tray thanks to the most recent title update which fixed a lot of the problems I had with the game's online component. Halo Wars has also found it's place in the tray quite often, it's a fantastic little game (except when people rush online, that sucks). Halo 3 still works it's way back in too, and I suspect it'll get plenty of play time soon when the Mythic Maps release to the XBL Marketplace. Occasionally Burnout Paradise get's a spin as I slowly work my way to 100% in the game. I'll also pop in my roommate's CoD 4 if I really don't want to play any of my other games.
    -My mp3 player is taking it's last gasp of air. It has decide that it wants to display everything backwards now, so I figure it's only a matter of time before it dies on me. I've been looking at getting a blue 8GB Zune, I really like the UI and the touch pad on them is nice.
    -My computer is also suffering some major hardware issues lately. First the computer decided that it didn't want to recognize the disc drive (can't even find it in the BIOs). I also think the hardware is in danger of going under. It's been goofy on boot up and once gave me a fatal hard drive reading failure when trying to start up. Hopefully this clings on long enough until next fall, then I'll probably pick one up (you know, when I have money after working all summer).
    -Speaking of money, hopefully everything goes well with my FAFSA application. I'm preliminarily eligible for a Pell Grant and an Academic Competitiveness Grant (yay AP classes), the school just has to pour over our tax filings to make sure we reported everything accurately on the application then we should hear back from them about that. Seriously, trying to pay for school sucks.


    Well that's all I really have at the moment for you guys.
