    When I woke up this morning I hot my leg and it really hurt. I'm going to a doctor this afternoon, as a result I get the day off Not much to comment on. I will have limited access to BZPower over the next week and a bit, so when I have time, I'll post one big entry telling you what I did in my absence See Ya!

    Well today at school was my last week of playing cricket this year. Not much really happened, I scored twenty-one runs and we lost. When I got home there was two packages for me. A box of sour lollies and a boiler pen from my Grandma and the new Australian LEGO magazine. It didn't have the comic, as you can't get them in Australia, but it came with a little fire boat and some Toa Mahri stickers. Inside the magazine, the best two bits were an interview of how they design BIONICLE sets and a BIONICLE board game, where you play as Hydraxon and have to capture Gadunka and Maxilos while the Toa Mahri try to stop you. After that I got on the computer and went to BZPower and after a bit of forum searching, typed this.

    Just so people know, every Tuesday and every second weekend I am at my Dad's house and have limited access to the computer
     
    Today my friend finally asked out the girl he likes and she said yes, so that was pretty fun Other than that I made a plastic Mata Nui stone in Manual Arts I'm going to my Dad's place for a few hours soon, so not much to say really. I took some pictures of Gadunka, so there will be a review of him tomorrow when I have more time I'm not going today after all, but I will be away for a week starting Friday
     
    I don't have any box pictures or anything, but I will review him nonetheless
     
    (Click Here) Gadunka's Design is not similar to any other set I know of. His torso is made up of several Inika bodies held together (Click Here)and a few plates of armour attached to keep the body stable. His arms are pretty standard, basically Kalmah's arms (Click Here) with Mahri Nui Matoran blades as fingers/claws, which to might delight have excellent mobility The squid launcher sit comfortably on his left hand and the two squid ammo are held on hid back (Click Here), again similar to Kalmah. The legs are far apart, but big and sturdy, allowing him to keep his balance. Without the Inika shoulder armour, Gadunka's thighs would look horrible. One thing I also noticed was these little, red two+ (Click Here) rods that sit there uselessly, and considering there is no combiner, I don't know why they're there. Now, I'd say the best part of Gadunka is his awesome head (Click Here). It is pretty cool and for those who still haven't found out yet, his teeth are the same piece as Ehlek's spines and Spinax's back. His tongue is the only odd bit about the head, it's a red Piraka foot (the clawed one), it seems odd that he has a clawed tongue, but it works well with the set. The head is attached to the main body by only two pieces as seen here. Once built Gadunka looks pretty fearsome, especially with a Matoran in his mouth (Click Here) If he stands up to his full hight, he s actually pretty tall (Click Here). He is fun for posing and playing, though the squids on the back fall off a lot. I recommend Gadunka to anyone that can't decide which titan to get first. He ties with Hydraxon as my favourite set of the year that I have so far (Click Here)
     
    PS: I changed my font colour again if you didn't notice

    I had a few things I did in school today. Fist period I had Science and we got the results from the test I told you about. I got thirty-five out of thirty-seven, the best anyone got in the class Next period I had English. I had to present my project (selling a holiday to another planet that we made up) and give a speech. My planet I was advertising was called HappyAir (meant to sound like "happier"), on my planet the atmosphere is made of a mild laughing gas so you always feel happy (). Other than that, not much happened today. I'm changing the colour of my font to green now, not for any real reason though.
     
    PS: When the camera is working, I'll post a set review, please tell me which set I should do from this list:
    Toa Mahri Jaller Toa Mahri Hahli Toa Mahri Hewkii Toa Mahri Nuparu Toa Mahri Matoro Toa Mahri Kongu Gadunka Hydraxon

    Due to the board being offline and a bust schedule on Saturday, I bring you several days worth of Adventurer
     
    Thursday Night: War of the Worlds Musical and Kongu Mahri
     
    This entry takes place a few minutes after I finished my last entry Having just got off BZPower for a bit to get ready for War of the Worlds (the musical), my step-dad (known on BZPower as Yorrick Kaine) came home and had Kongu with him (I'd given him the money in the morning so he could get him at lunch) so I thanked him, built him quickly and added him to my Toa Mahri shelf By then we were ready to go. It was taking place at a entertainment centre and we were meeting several other people their. While we waited, I got some calamari and chips from an 80s style food place thing along with a drink and ice-cream (I was glad that they let food inside ). Once the show started there was a lot of music and a bit of singing/talking and one thing I did notice, is that the Martian Tripod's feet looked nearly exactly the same as Rahkshi feet! Afrter the interval I saw Shannon Noll die ("Yay!")! Overall it was pretty good, especially the giant holgramatic (sp?) head
     
    Friday: Boring Day
     
    Nothing really happened n Friday, BZPower was offline and school was dull. I will dwell on Friday no more.
     
    Saturday: Writers Festival, Jaller and Matoro Mahri, the Toa Mahri collection is complete!
     
    The thing that kept me off most of yesterday was my Mum going to the Writers Festival and though I'd want to come! The Writers Festival was mildly (and I mean MILDLY) exciting, the two most interesting people I heard talk was a guy that wrote Star Wars and Dune books and a Swedish horror writer (that used to be a comedian). During the lunch break, I went to Allen's music store and bought myself some jazz music and went next door to complete my Toa Mahri collection by buying Matoro and Jaller Mahri By the time we'd finished is was 11:00pm and we had McDonalds and went to bed.
     
    Sunday: Today
     
    I have the house to myself today (my Mum and Yorrick Kaine will be at more writers stuff) and the only thing I have to do is my English assignment!
     
    So that was my weekend

    This is my third entry of my new blog. If you have any suggestions, let me know
     
    Today I got a lot of my test results back! For maths, A, English, A German A-, Manual Arts A, Music A+. I also had a science test which was pretty easy so I may have As in every subject this term . Tomorrow I have to give a speech for English, (I have to try and sell a holoiday to another planet ), I hope it goes well. Not much else really happened today. I'll be going to the War of the Worlds musical tonight (I get to see Shannon Noll die ), so I'll give my thoughts on that tomorrow
    I also ordered to Power Packs from anither site ($40 AUD) and I'm considering maybe acquiring an orange Vahi (my old one was stolen with my Onu-Metru Great Disk ), though I'm not sure if I'll be able to afford it for a while. If by any chance you are willing to sell one, please let me know That's about it, I'm thinking of trying to give this blog a more Daxia feeling, maybe a few content block pictures...

    I'll try and do a small entry once a day, that way people don't complain that I don't type big long entries Today two dully exciting things happened:
    1) A Maths Exam Yay!
    2) Sport
     
    Maths:
    The maths exam was the second and last half of it and it was driving me mad to know that only two people in our class (the "A" class) got 100%. I know it wasn't me because after the test I re-did one of the questions I found out I was wrong. But it's still interesting to know who's better than you Before the test I had to borrow my friends calculator as mine was dead, because of this I was ten minutes late! I still think I did all right, but that ten minutes extra would have been real nice on my over worked hand
     
    Sport:
    In terms three and four you choose three sports. It goes like this:
    Sport 1 for a few weeks
    Sport 2 for a few weeks
    Sport 3 for a few weeks
    Sport ? for 2 weeks
    My order so far is Cricket, Volleyball, Soccer (Dang! No Rugby!). I'm on my second last day of cricket and (it's not competitive, just for fun (at least it's meant to be)) I was captain today I chose second but I still ended up with a pretty good team. I loss the toss and we were batting second. Our whole team was doing really well except for one person who I will name Mr. X. Mr X didn't pay attention and let the ball go past him (I actually counted) seven times! I was pretty cross, so I started thinking that every one makes mistakes, but seven times! He cost us over twenty-five runs! Eventually we batted (I got thirty runs ), but there was a problem; they had an extra person! Someone who hadn't been playing at the start had joined in! It turned out to not be such a problem because we ended up winning by sixteen runs. Fun was had by all
     
    In retrospect, that was pretty long and I hope that won't become a standard
