  1. Well, that's true, they are all difficult to find (Outside of well, the Mario group.). Still though, I would say you are very luck to have found a store exclusive one though as usual they sell out at release day (Which is always on Friday it seems. A terrible release day for people with day jobs such as myself.). And yeah, that's true. We will be getting cards. Although it definitely won't be same as having the figures. - JMJ 2015
  2. *jealous* Man, you are so lucky. These store exclusive Amiibos are such a pain to find. - JMJ 2015
  3. @Xaeraz: Well, that's pretty much the only airport that I was considering going to, if I did decided on doing the trip. (Especially since I recall AT mentioning last year about a shuttle from airport to hotel.) As for getting a ride from someone, I don't know if I would be comfortable with that idea to be honest. Which is why Shuttle ride is so appealing as otherwise I wouldn't be considering the trip as I wouldn't want to bother anyone to pick me up (Well, not unless there is a good bus route from there.). That and I wouldn't know anyone to ask anyway. Thanks for all the advice. *** @AT: Ah. Well, I would say I can afford the flight down there and back (And from looks of it, I might want do it sooner rather than later as price does seem to have gone up since I last checked.). It just well, a lot of money is all (Much more than a train trip, which amounts to at most $100 or so for round trip.). So I am more on the fence about whether or not it will be worth in the end as I know I am not very good with people. *shrugs* That and well, taking a plane trip is new and scary thing for me, especially considering I'll be alone. But anyway, I would be shooting for Holiday Inn as hotel option as like you mention that free shuttle bus from airport and hotel is super convenient. It would certain give me one less thing to worried about, if I did decide to do the trip. As for splitting the hotel room with someone to save money, I guess that's idea, although I don't really know anyone to do that with. That and I might not be comfortable with idea much like getting a ride from someone. *shrugs* Thanks for all the advise. *** @Lyichir: Personally I would like to think that will be the case, but I can't help the nagging feeling that I probably be uncomfortable around folks and very aloof, if I were to go there. Eh, maybe I am worrying for nothing, but I know I never been very good at being sociable, especially on my own as I won't have comfort that comes from a familiar face. *shrugs* But anyway, I appreciate the offer of a ride. However I don't think I'll need and I rather not bother your family with having to pick me up. Thanks though. *** Thanks to all you for taking the time to give me some advice. - JMJ 2015
  4. Happy Birthday, Tekulo! I hope you have a great day today. =D

      Thanks! And happy Valentine's Day! ^^

  5. Hey, folks. I thought I pop in share some thoughts here today. It’s mostly thoughts about summer actually. XD Yeah, I realized it is a bit early to be thinking about summer. But well, these thoughts will probably required some planning (Such saving money, ect.), so I think it is good to be thinking about them now rather than later. So what about summer am I thinking about? Well, if you recall my New Year’s entry, I mention there that I was going to try to check out BrickFair VA a day again this year. Well, I been thinking about it lately and I am kind considering maybe attending the whole event. Although I am still kind on fence about it, so I thought I should post an entry to hear your advice or thoughts on the matter. I mean transportation is going to be bit of issue, if I do consider it, as I can't really drive myself there. So it kind leaves two options really, traveling by plane (Which is something that I never before and probably will be a bit scared about the idea) or traveling by train (Which will required me figure out a bus route to actually get to the convention or hotel itself.). So yeah, that gives me a bit of pause. But maybe it will be worth the trouble of having to figure stuff like that out. At this point, I am kind leaning toward by plane option since while it is more money (And honestly looking at the price makes wonder how people from faraway places (Like the West Coast) than me make there every year as man, it is expensive.) than a train trip, arranging transport seem like it would be easier there than at train station. I say this because the train option has me having the figure out the public transportation system. Additionally at least according to Google, it seems like I can't even get to a bus stop without a car, so getting off the train and preceding to walk the route to bus stop would likely take me through a highway or something (Either that or Google just didn't factor in walking in this Public Transportation route because it would be a lot of walking. *shrugs* I might have play around with that some more to see if that might be case.). There also time as factor as one of train stations (Which is closest one to there.) only has one route down there and I won't get there till 5:30 PM, which means I would have figure out public transportation there at night and add like two to three hours to the trip (Meaning I wouldn't get there till like 8 PM.). So yeah, not sure about that option, unless I go for station a bit farther down (Which has at least three train route options to choose from with some being in morning hours, so it could be a better route. *shrugs*). So yeah, I am leaning toward the plane option due to those factors. But then again, maybe I shouldn't even think about it. XD I don't know. It's just a thought and like I said in beginning though, I am interested to get your viewpoint since most of you know more about this traveling thing than me. With that said, I think that's about it for this entry. I would appreciate any advice that you folks might have to offer. And thank you for taking the time to read this. Talk to you later, BZPers. - JMJ 2015
  6. @The Xinlo: Eh...I am not saying I hate Voyager (I would actually rank it as close second to DS9). I enjoyed the show and its characters (Especially time travel episodes such as "Timeless"). I just wish that they could been more arc storylines involved in it is all. *shrugs* But anyway, it looks unfortunately Stargate and Babylon 5 aren't available on Netflix. I'll keep them on my mental To Watch list though, so if I ever get opportunity to check them out, I will. @Pomegranate: lol I wasn't planning on watching Enterprise last, so I hopefully shouldn't run into that issue. I guess I should mention here just for your reference: I will be watching TNG films first (It doesn't make sense really to watch TOS films yet since I know nothing of its crew really.), then the Enterprise series, followed by TOS, and lastly TOS films. Oh, and I guess I could watch the J.J. Abrams films after all that (Although I am not sure if I will like them or not. *shrugs*). @Black Six: Alright, looks like that one is on Netflix, so I'll be sure to check it out. Thanks, Black Six. *** Thank you all for taking the time to leave a comment. I hope you all have a great day today. - JMJ 2015
  7. Hey, folks. I thought I pop in again and give a little update since it been awhile since my last entry. Uh, I am not sure where to begin. I mean I hadn't been up to much really. I guess I'll just talk about my weekend since it still on my mind. So yeah, I managed to finished Star Trek: Voyager this weekend, which I was sad to see end as I did enjoy it for most part (Although I feel like it could been better.). Oh, and I can't say it replace Deep Space Nine as my favorite (I don't know how to explain it outside I just felt the story arcs involving characters were handle much better in DS9 than Voyager. *shrugs*). But anyway, I would ramble more about my thoughts on Voyager, but I don't want bored you folks. Before I move on though, with Voyager done now, I only got the Star Trek films, the Original series (+ Animated series), and the Enterprise series left to watch. I am probably not going to watch them all right a way as I don't want burn myself out on the series (That and well, once I finished them all, it means I have no more Star Trek to watch, which would be sad as I like the universe.). So with that said, I guess I should mention here that I am open to suggestions for checking out other TV shows (Preferably ones I can watch on Netflix since that where I been binge watching Star Trek.), so feel free to do that if you want. Alright, moving right along, I also managed to do some MOCing this weekend (Which if you follow my Twitter, you probably saw pictures of already.). I didn't make anything too fancy really. I was mostly experimenting with gears since the theme for BZP convention circuit mention lights and action. And well, I don't have any light bricks (Outside of Skakdi eyes, which doesn't feature an on / off switch), so I can't do anything with that. I do have two motors though from an old Dinosaur LEGO set, so I end up experimenting with those motors to see what I could come up to include a motor in a BIONICLE based creation. Honestly I can't say I had much luck with that as you can see in these two videos. XD I kept messing around with it though and eventually I start getting something that I kind liked as shown in this video (Even though what the gears did was kind of meaningless as all they did was spin. XD). Eventually it became something that kind looks like maybe a dragon's head (Here's a video for more a detail look of it.). So yeah, that was what built this weekend. No doubt you all have build much better than this as I am pretty terrible at this MOCing business. Oh, and I should note that I am not done with this "Dragon's Head" MOC. I plan on trying to build a body for it and maybe ship it out on the convention circuit, if I can get it to look good enough. Alright, I think I rambled enough here. I am sorry if this was boring entry for you to read. Thank you though for taking the time to read this and I hope you all have a great day. I'll talk you later, BZPers. - JMJ 2015
  8. Hey, folks. I thought pop in really quick and let you folks know that I finally got around to building those BIONICLE Protectors sets, I got awhile back. And well, I think they are pretty good little sets. I really like how the armor looks on them (Although I am not a fan of the lack of back armor on the Protector of Fire and the Protector of Earth.). Also they all have some neat looking weapons (Although the weapon of the Protector of Water is difficult to pose with.). If I had to think of any complain about them really, it would be lack of a name for the Protectors. *shrugs* I don't know. I just find it a bit awkward to have refer to them as Protector of "Whatever Element," so someone can know which one I am talking about. I should note I don't really know anything about BIONICLE Generation 2 story as I have yet to watch or read any of media. So yeah, I am pretty clueless about that stuff. But if I had guess the lack of name for them is probably because the Protector sets are just supposed to be generic villager characters (Meaning they could be any villager in the tribe or whatever it is in this story.). *shrugs* Again, I don't really know. Its on my to do list to check out the story eventually. I just hadn't got to it yet. With that said, I like 2015 BIONICLE sets so far. I am hoping to maybe get a Toa at some point. I don't know which one I'll get. Probably Tahu, although I am open to suggestions from you folks, so feel free to do so. In other news, I thought I should mention here that if anyone wants a 3DS demo code for Monster Hunters 4 Ultimate, I have at least three codes that I could give to some folks here. So yeah, if you want it, let me know and I'll sent you a code. Well, I am out of codes now. Alright, well, that's all I really have to say here. Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope you all have a great day today. I'll talk you later, BZPers. - JMJ 2015 *goes back to watching Star Trek: Voyager*
  9. Hey, folks. As per tradition, I thought since today is last day of my holiday break that I would pop in and give a little update on how it went (Admittedly I did work on 29th to 31st, so I wasn't off really the whole week.). For the most part, I would say I had a pretty good break from work. Although it wasn't very productive break really. I managed to finished Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth. I thought overall the game was pretty good and it makes wish Ace Attorney Investigations 2 was translated in English as I would love to play it. Also I must say that game's final boss have got to be toughest boss I have ever faced in the Ace Attorney series so far. Speaking of Ace Attorney series, I started Dual Destinies this week. Although I didn't get very far in it. I just finished the first case and start a little bit of second case. So yeah, I am not very far in it. I also have a bit mixed opinions about some of changes in it (Such as Phoenix's voice). *shrugs* I am keeping an open mind though and I still having fun with the cases, so those mixed opinions are minor annoyances at best. In other gaming news, I unfortunately didn't manage to play any Pokemon this week or last week (My little brother is now ahead of me in the game and he's only had it for like 10 days now. [i brought him a 3DS and Aqua Sapphire as a holiday gift.].). I did get play some Smash though and I did like two online matches. The first one I got pretty much destroyed in. Second one though I didn't do that bad in. I definitely need to train myself some more though. Hm...I would mention how much I spent on Steam Winter Sale here. But I kind don't want think about that. XD Let's just say I took advantage of it and be done with it. Also I wish I realized earlier that Winter Trading Cards expired at the end of sale as now I have a bunch cards in my inventory wasting space (I can't delete them.). I feel like Steam needs a trash can in their inventory system. But anyway, outside gaming stuff, I managed to watch a bit more Star Trek: Voyager. I am currently on Season 5, Episode 24. And well, I been enjoying the show (Captain Janeaway is pretty awesome.). Beside that, I managed to pick up some BIONICLE 2015 sets (Protectors of Fire, Water, Ice, and Earth). I hadn't build them though. Also I got the first three Books of the Legend of Korra on DVD (I got that as a gift from a friend.). I plan on binge watching them all after I get Book 4 on DVD. Oh, and I did some cleaning in the basement. It still a long way from being perfect, but I think I made good progress on it this week, so I am happy. I would like to get fish tank down here clean out by this month as it would be nice to have some fishes again. So hopefully even though I am going back to work now, I'll be able to find the time to do that. We'll just have to wait and see. So yeah, that's pretty much all eventful things happened during my holiday break from work. Like I say earlier, I wasn't very productive. I would ramble more here, but I don't want take anymore of your time. That and well, its late here and I should probably go bed. So thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope you all have a great day today. I'll talk you later, BZPers. - JMJ 2015 P.S. - For those wondering, yes, the title of this entry is KH II reference. I am actually playing little bit of KH II now as I write this as I realized a bit too late that I had forgot to play it during my break. XD
  10. Hey, folks. I thought I should take opportunity today to basically look back on this year and give you folks my thoughts on it. Hm...I am summarized this year with a pros and cons list since I think its best way to address the entire year without taking too much of your time. Although I make no promises that I won't ramble about certain things. XD But anyway, let's begin... Pros - I still have my job. This pro is kind of given as obviously I am going to be happy to still be employed. XD Especially since I am not in college and at this point, I really don't know if I am going back as honestly I don't feel like I am smart enough. And I feel like language and speech courses will destroy me. XD But yeah, I am happy to still be employed at this company (I been there about four years now.) and well, business seems to be doing good. Not sure what else to say here, so I guess I'll move on. - I met Black Six for the first time at Philly Brick Fest back in April. That was pretty cool. Although looking back I wished I didn't have a little panic attack after I signing the Logbook. You see I accidentally knock something over and try to put it back how it was. That was dumb of me as obviously I shouldn't of touch it. *sigh* I imagine I gave Black Six such a bad impression of me there, especially trying to hide behind my phone (It's my camera) when we first reach the table... - I also met some BZPers (AT, Sumiki, Takuma Nuva, Xaeraz, Zatth, ect.) during my brief BrickFair VA visit. That was pretty awesome, although I don't think I did the greatest job introducing myself there as I did miss Lyichir, Aanchir, Meiko, and vary of others there. I think the biggest highlight of that day though has got be DeeVee calling me over to him when I was leaving for my late lunch (I still have not sure how he knew who I was. I guess Black Six told him. *shrugs*). Kind of wish I wasn't so awkward around him though. That and I kind of regret not doing that comic signing idea as it would been awesome to have had him sign it. - Book 3 & 4 of the Legend of Korra series was pretty great, if you ask me. I mean yes, there is elements of it that I wish they could of done better. (Like it would been nice to have seen the Red Lotus group in Book 3 more fleshed out as characters, ect.) But overall, I like the series and I am sad to see it go as Avatar universe is pretty awesome. - I got to go to the Pokemon Symphony and that was pretty awesome (Although I did throw up in parking lot...). I also finally got to meet Lyichir and Aanchir since they were there too. =D So yeah, that was pretty cool event. My sister and I are actually thinking about maybe going to one in Baltimore next year. - BIONICLE returns with GEAR FUNCTIONS! Obviously it is happening next year, but the news was released this year, so I am counting it as part of 2014. =P - My family and I are mostly in good health. I don't think anything major happened to any us this year health wise. However my grandmother did pass away earlier this month... - I managed to host a little giveaway here back in June and surprisingly enough it went pretty well. I hope the people that got the LEGO Movie DVDs enjoyed it. I might do something like that again in the future here. - Like last year, I still have my one real life friend, so I hadn't completely been engulf with feelings of loneliness (Although I will admitted I did have a few moments of this at vary points in the year. But eh, that's life of someone that is terrible with people.). - Lastly, I have continued to make donations to vary charities and stuff throughout the year. Cons - As mention above, my grandmother died earlier this month, so that definitely has brought this year down some for me... =( - I still don't have driver's license, which isn't surprising as that been trend for past few years now. Hopefully next year I can change that. - Legend of Korra ended... (For what it's worth, I did like the ending to the series.) Especially since it means we probably won't see Avatar universe again in the future. Although the comic series does seem to be continuing next year, so there is hope. *** That's all that comes to mind when I think 2014, so I guess it was mostly a good year for me. I guess next I'll talk about "goals" for 2015. Here are my goals for new year (They are pretty similar to last year's. XD): - Get into better shape / Lose Weight - Try to get my driver's license - Get some MOCs ready to ship out to some of LEGO conventions - Maybe try and visit BrickFair VA again for a day That's about it for my goals as well, I am kind of drawing a blank on any other possible goals. XD But anyway, I have kept you folks here long enough. I hope you all have a great new year and thank you for taking the time to read this. Talk to you later, BZPers. Oh, and Happy New Year, BZPower! - JMJ 2014
  11. Hey, BZPers. I thought I should pop in really quick and wish you all a Happy Holiday this week (I probably should did this yesterday, but I was kinda busy celebrating the holiday with my family, so I wasn't at my computer much.). So yeah...Happy Holidays. BZPower! I hope you all have a great week. I guess, while I am here, I'll share what I got yesterday. Its not much really, but I don't really need anything. Here's what I got: - Three pairs of Sweatpants (Blue, Light Grey, Dark Grey) (Which I think is a pretty nice gift as I could use more sweatpants.) - A Grey Short Sleeve Shirt - Winter Gloves (Which will be useful for shoveling snow next year. XD) - A Light Green Pair of Work Pants (Again like the sweatpants, I certainly don't mind having more of those.) - A flashlight and some candy (From a co-worker, who is literally the nicest person I know as she had gifts for everyone at my workplace!) - A bonus check from work (You don't need to know how much that was. =P) - A Target Gift Card from work (Which is 25 dollars...I have no idea what I am going to use it on.) - Some cash from family That's pretty much everything I got. And well, I have a pretty good holiday with my family yesterday (Mashed Potatoes are best!). Not sure what else to say really, so I guess I'll call this an entry and post it. Thanks for taking time to read this and I hope you all have a great day. Talk to you later, BZPers. - JMJ 2014 P.S. - I still have Steam Keys up for grab for these games. Let me know if you want any of them.
  12. @Burnmad & ~Shockwave~: Steam Keys Sent! Oh, and Happy Holidays! @Kohaku: Steam Key Sent! Yeah, I know. I need to used my Backloggery more. XD Happy Holidays to you as well! @Pohatu: Master of Stone: Well, Steam is an internet-based digital distribution, digital rights management, multiplayer, and social networking platform developed by Valve Corporation. Hm...Based on your profile, looks like you must be familiar with them as you have played Team Fortress 2. But anyway, Humble Bundle is a site that has series of collections ("bundles") of digital creations that are sold and distributed online at a price determined by the purchaser. Often a portion of the sales also go to charity. (In case of the Yogscast Jingle Jam bundle, all sales goes to the charities in question.) Now often they sell these games with a key to download through the Steam service. A key is basically used to give a Steam user the rights to download and play the game through the Steam service. Does that make sense to you? Hm...I guess I should use an example. So let's say you wanted the Steam Key for Thomas Was Alone. In order for me to sent you that Steam Key, I have to get create a gift link on Humble Bundle site. Once I have that link, I can give it to you and Humble Bundle will ask you for an email address, so that they can created a personal downloads page for you. Once you get their email, you just have to go to that downloads page, click on the Steam Icon, log into Steam, give permission to accept the key from Humble Bundle, and then you just download the game from Steam. I hope that makes sense to you. *** Thanks to all of you for taking the time to leave a comment. I hope you all have a great week. - JMJ 2014
  13. Hey, folks. I thought I pop in today and let you all know that I am on holiday break from work now. That's pretty cool. It means i have more time to check out stuff here (Such as BIONICLE 2015 stuff, which I only really taken a brief view of.) and do other stuff (Video Games, ect.). But yeah, you might see me around here a bit more. *shrugs* To be honest, I don't really have definite plans for my free time this week. Like right now, I just been watching a bunch Star Trek: Voyager on Netflix (I just finished season 3 and I am currently on season 4, episode 4.). XD Hm...I probably should continue my Pokemon journey through Omega Ruby, which I hadn't played since the week...my grandmother passed away... But yeah, uh... I probably should continue that. Oh, and for those wondering how much progress I made in it before that week, I was only up to second gym. So yeah, not a lot of progress. I am pretty sure all of you have beaten it by now. XD Speaking of games, last weekend I decided to continue Ace Attorney: Investigations. I ended finishing Case 3 and I am probably going start Case 4 this week. And who knows, maybe I'll beat the game this week too. XD That would be nice. It give me a reason to update my Backloggery. Of course, buying games for myself in the Steam Sale isn't exactly helping that backlog. XD Speaking of Steam games, does anyone want these Steam keys: - Bridge Constructor - Magicka + Dungeons and Daemons DLC - Magicka: Wizard Wars - Yogscast Tippin' Unique Item - Cities in Motion 2 - Ace of Spades: Battle Builder > Sent to Meiko - Thomas Was Alone (I actually I have played this one before. And if I am not mistaken, I did beat it. Its pretty cool simple 2D platformer. I recommend if you like platformers and it seems like it could run on most computers. It ran on my old one and that just have standard graphic card from 2008) - Mark of the Ninja > Sent to Burnmad - Montas (Early Access) - Stronghold Crusader HD - Swords and Soldiers HD - NiGHTS Into Dreams > Sent to Kohaku - Strike Suit Infinity > Sent to ~Shockwave~ - Call of Juarez I got the keys from the Humble Bundle for "Yogscast Jingle Jam" this month and well, I didn't really donate for games, so I thought maybe you folks might want them. If you do, let me know and I'll sent you over a key code through PM here. Moving on, my last gaming thought is I am probably going start KH II.5 this week since well, I been itching to play it (And well, it also helps that I finally beat Dream Drop Distance recently. Yes, I know what took me so long to do that. I really don't have any good excuse for not beating it sooner.). Oh, and I'll try to play some Smash as I have been neglecting it. XD So yeah, I guess I have some ideas on how to use my free time this week. I doubt I'll do all of them, especially since I am sure I can think of plenty of other stuff. But well, we will just have to wait and see. Alright, well, that's all I really have to say here. Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope you all have a great day today. I'll talk you later, BZPers. Oh, and Happy Holidays to those that are celebrating a holiday this week. - JMJ 2014
  14. I am not very good at Smash. But it sounds like it might be fun to try, so count me in. - JMJ 2014
  15. @Dorek: I must admit the thought of playing it now certainly has crossed my mind a lot today. XD But yeah, the time is certainly a factor keeping me from it (That and well, work, of course.). I might have time to at least check it out tomorrow though, so there is that. @Necro: Well, to answer your questions (I assume it is about GC Controller Adapter.), I got it off eBay, which wasn't the cheapest method of getting it (Although I did go for cheapest one I could find, so there is that at least.). So I wouldn't recommend that method honestly, especially if Nintendo does make more stock in the future. Hm...I'll keep an eye for another one though. If I find one, I'll let you know. *** Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment here. I hope you all have a great day. - JMJ 2014
  16. UPDATED 12/12/2014: Well, I got my other package today! Its the Gamecube Controller Adapter! Looking forward to playing around with that this weekend. Maybe I can even convince my brother to try out the new Smash, if he is not too busy. =P *** Hey, folks. I thought I pop in really quick and share some loot that I got today. So yeah, here's what I got in the mail today. Woot! So as today, I have all of the First Wave of Amiibos (DK, Link, Mario, and Kirby are here. I gave Pikachu to my sister.), which is pretty cool. XD Hm...I am not sure yet if I am going collect the second wave of them (Although looking at second wave preorders does make me a bit worried that I won't find any of them, which kind stinks as I would like get at least Pit.). I probably I will collect them, to be honest. Oh, and I won't be keeping them in the packaging like this as I would like to use them (After all, they do give me someone to play Smash with when I don't have my siblings around.). Oh, and before I forget to mention I also got my copy of KH II.5 today (as shown above). Admittedly I probably will not be able to play it though until my brief winter break later in the month. XD I wish there was more time in the day as I would love to revisit KH II now (If you been following my blog for awhile now, you know I love overusing this line from it, "Looks like my summer vacation is...over."). Oh, well. It gives me something to look forward to during the break (And gives me chance to use that line again when that "vacation" ends. XD) Alright, well, that's all I really have to say here. Hm...I probably should note that I might be bumping this entry tomorrow as I do have one more package coming this week. I want make sure it works before I get too excited about it. But yeah, I probably update this tomorrow. With that said, thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope you all have a great day today. I'll talk you later, BZPers. - JMJ 2014 P.S. I'll try to get a Pokelog up this weekend. I kind of forgot I was going to write one last Sunday, so I am sorry about that.
  17. Hey, folks. Sorry, its been awhile since my last entry here. I been having a bit rough week as well, my grandmother (Mother's side) passed away this Monday... Its first time that I have lost a love one (Well, technically I lost my grandfather [Father's Side] before this, but I don't really count that as I was a 4 month old baby when that happened.). So like I say, it been kind of rough week for me. For those wondering, the funeral was yesterday. I thought it went pretty well for most part and it was a good sent off for my grandmother. Thankfully I didn’t have any stomach issues. Although I did feel quite emotionally drained after the service… Saying goodbye to my grandmother was very difficult. My only regret from the service yesterday was that I didn't wear my winter coat as that church and burial site was freezing. XD Also random note about yesterday, I think my grandfather, my brother, and I were like only people in my family that bother to wear an actual suit to service. I kind hope I don't have to wear a suit like that again anytime soon as man, wearing a tie and suit jacket is uncomfortable. It especially made moving the coffin difficult as suit jacket kind restricted my arm movements. But anyway, I am alright. You don't need to worried about me. Oh, and I should have a PokeLog written up about my progress last week later (I hadn't played it at all this week.). Probably I'll have that up tomorrow. Alright, that's all I got to say about this week. Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope you all have a great day today. I'll talk you later, BZPers. And lastly, RIP Grandmom (September 1st, 1938 to December 1st, 2014). You are missed… =( - JMJ 2014
  18. Happy Birthday, Meiko! I hope you have a great day today.

  19. Hey, folks. I am popping back into today to give you a status report on my progress through Pokemon Omega Ruby yesterday. To be honest, I didn't get much done (If anything, a lot of you folks are probably finished by now. XD). And as the title suggests, I actually play the beginning of this game twice as I kind decided to take advantage Pokemon Bank and use it to get all three Hoenn starters. XD I only had to erase my file once since I already have Torchic from giveaway during X & Y release. And well, I had bred like a bunch of Torchic in my X game, so I just sent a baby one over once I had bred other two starters in my X game. So yeah, I have three Hoenn starters now. =D Yeah, I know it is not that much of achievement really (Especially to you folks that have actually caught all 719 Pokemon before.). But well, I thought it would be cool to try out all three starters since to be honest, Generation 3 was probably the Generation of Pokemon that I remember least of (Probably doesn't help that it came after my original favorite Generation 2.). So in some ways, this play-through feels new to me. XD Really that's about it for what I played yesterday. I mean I hadn't really decide on a team yet, outside playing around with the three starters. I guess I'll mention really quick who is in my party: - Torchic, Level 9 - Beldum, Level 6 (Nintendo Network Giveaway one) - Treecko, Level 16 (He was at Day Care when he got to level 16, so he didn't evolve) - Mudkip, Level 13 - Surskit, Level 5 - Poochyena, Level 5 And yes, I hadn't nicknamed any of my Pokemon. I should probably do that when I find the Name Rater. Oh, and I almost forgot to mention that I met Wally (He is such a cutie.). Actually I guess it is a given that I have met him. XD But yeah, that's about it for my first day in Pokemon Omega Ruby. I am not sure if I am going to be playing it today, especially considering I decided to start watching Star Trek: Voyager today. Hm...I don't know if I have mention here, but I finished Deep Space Nine last month. I thought it was pretty good and its currently my favorite Star Trek series. But anyway, to get back on topic, the next Pokelog probably won't be up till Tuesday, assuming I played it on Monday. Alright, I rambled enough here. I am sorry if this was boring entry for you to read. Thank you though for taking the time to read this and I hope you all have a great day. I'll talk you later, BZPers. - JMJ 2014
  20. @Shockwave: I am not very good at online batting in Pokemon either to be honest. XD As for Smash Bros on 3DS, I do have that. Mind you, I am not very good at the game. But I wouldn't mind a match in that, if you want. - JMJ 2014
  21. Hey, folks. It been awhile since I wrote a blog entry, so I thought I would pop in today and give a little update. Really there's not much to update you folks on since not a whole lot been going on with me. I just been working and doing the usual stuff (Reading stuff on BZP, watching videos, and playing video games). Oh, and I don't think I mention here, but I am excited for BIONICLE 2015 (GEAR FUNCTIONS! Oh, how I missed them.). I will admit I am a bit behind of some news about it though. But it is on my to do list to watch all BZPower videos about BIONICLE 2014 during my holiday break next month. So hopefully I'll be up to speed by then and maybe I can comment in more detail about it. XD We'll see, I guess. But anyway, as the title of entry say, I got my copies of Super Smash Bros for Wii U and Pokemon Omega Ruby today. And I must say I am excited to play them (lol And yet here I am writing this entry rather than just play them already. XD). Hopefully maybe I can play a match or something with some of you folks at some point. EDITED: Oh, and I am bring back Pokelog on here, so expected to see entry about the start of my journey through Pokemon Omega Ruby tomorrow. Speaking of that, if you hadn't added me on the Wii U or 3DS, here's my friend code and Nintendo ID in case you want to do that: 3DS Friend Code 5412-9992-6542 Wii U - Nintendo Network ID BZPJMJ64 *** Alright, I think I rambled enough here. I am going off now to go play Smash. So thanks for taking the time to read this and I hope you all have a great day. Talk to later, BZPers. - JMJ 2014

      That's good to hear. I been pretty good myself.

  25. Hey, folks. As mention in last entry (Which I have deleted now since I thought it was a pointless entry since all I wrote in it was that I was going to Pokemon Symphony.), I thought I should pop in today and give a quick update for you folks. So yeah, I guess I’ll start off with how the Pokemon Symphony went. Well, personally I thought it was a fantastic event. After all, I got a ton of streetpasses (About 30 or so Miis in my Plaza. I could have gotten more, but some of mini-games like Spaceship one make clearing the Plaza take awhile.) and I got to listen to awesome renditions of Pokemon music. I also got to meet two awesome BZPers (Aanchir & Lyichir) for first time, while I was there. I kind wish I could talk to them more than I did, but unfortunately there wasn’t a lot of time for that. That and well, I don’t think our seats weren’t in same area (They may have had lawn seats since those are cheaper.). But anyway, the only really bad thing about that day has I got be the fact that my annoying nervous condition started acting up again (REF: BrickFair VA entry), so I unfortunately I threw up my dinner as soon as we got there. So yeah, that wasn’t great. But at least, I had the sense to get out of my friend’s car before it happened. I wish I could found a trash can or something though as unfortunately I upchucked on grass covered parking lot. *embarrassed* Before anyone mentions, yes, I know I should probably see a doctor about this considering how often it has occurred. And well, I planned to at some point... *sigh* … I’ll be honest with you folks. I kind of have a bit of fear about going to hospitals and seeing doctors. Mostly because I worried they will tell me that something wrong with me will require expensive surgery or medication. I guess my surgery fear comes from my childhood scoliosis appointments as I will admit I often worried back then that the curve in my spine would progress and I would need surgery for it. And well, the thought of being cut open scares me. *shrugs* As for medication, that fear is mostly because I am not good at swallowing pills and well, medicine tends to be expensive. … Alright, I think I’ll get off this topic now as I doubt it is that interesting to read about someone talking about their fears. Uh, let’s talk about my thoughts on BIONICLE returning. That’s a better topic, right? Where to begin? Well, I think it is cool that LEGO is bringing it back, although I do have to wonder what made them decide to bring it back now as it does seem odd to bring it back after only four years. *shrugs* Not that I am complaining, but I would be interested in finding out what made them want to give the theme another try. But anyway, I guess I’ll answer this question next: Would you want BIONICLE 2015 story to be continuation or reboot? Personally I prefer a plain old reboot as that way everyone could start fresh with the theme and it would make it easier on LEGO to make changes (Such as Gender Ratios) without worrying about past story’s rules. I think a continuation will just have too much baggage involved and it would confuse new fans, especially if it was particularly old fan friendly with it. Alright, next question: Do you plan on buying BIONICLE 2015 sets? That depends on what they are like really. I will admit I am not too fond of Hero Factory method of building (Mostly because from what I seen of it, there is not much to it as you just slap armor on a skeleton.). So if it is a lot like that, I might not be that quick to pick them up. *shrugs* Eh...Again, it depends really. I actually thought this year's Hero Factory sets looked interesting (Of course, I didn't buy any. XD I blame video games. That and well, lack of space.). So yeah, I am reserving my judgment until after I seen the sets firsthand. *** Alright, I think I ramble enough for this entry. Oh, wait... Before I go, I guess I should mention that I got Super Smash Bros for 3DS last Saturday. So if any of you want to do a match with me, feel free to PM me. But anyway, thanks for taking the time to read this and I hope you all have a great day. Talk to later, BZPers. - JMJ 2014
