    saaaayyyy.....

    By Calvirick,

    I need a project since I don't have time for bionicle comics right now.
     
    And this idea came to mind when I saw this delightful picture. (credit goes to DeeVee's camera)
     
    *pulls a wacom pad out*
     
    IT'S CARICATURE TIME!
     
    (btw, thanks for the book recommendations guys, I think I'll survive another year)

    School project

    By Calvirick,

    Hey Dudes and dudettes!
     
    After I get this graded, I'll be sure to have clearer pictures. In the mean time, here's what I've been cooking up in Design II at University.

    Fourteen years ago, I was in my house, and my friend was over and he had a lego magazine. In it was an entry related to Bionicle's Trading Card set.
     
    The first card I glanced and stared at for a long time was Kopaka.
     
    Fourteen years later, I got home from work and bought my first Bionicle in 5 years.
     
    It was Kopaka....
     
    because it was the only one stock.
     
    HAHAHAHAHAHA
    Anyway, it's super awesome!! I love it!
     
    Happy New Year Everyone!

    I know I'm not for one to be serious on BZPower. (I mean, just look at my avatar... )
    Most of the time being here, I've only come sometimes when I feel like I need to be nerdy. In the past, I used to be very insecure about my identity. Thankfully, that's all over and I brag about all my strange nerdy fascinations and huge amounts of knowledge in pointless internet jokes and fads.
     
    However, I felt like writing to everyone that will read this about how much this Website and Bionicle itself has played a huge part in my life. I know where most of my abilities come from, but being a student studying Graphic Design at a university and working at a job that can easily pay for it would not have happened if it wasn't a couple of things.
     
    When I found out that LEGO was gonna re-release Bionicle, it really hit a nerve for me. It hit a nerve in a very different way than most things do.
     
    I can't really distinguish what I'm feeling right now. (besides being tired from being at school all day.
    )  
     
     
    I can't really distinguish between if I'm feeling sad or extremely motivated about life right now.
     
     
     
    Sad meaning that my long dream of Bionicle finally returning, but I can't do anything about it. (Eg. like buy a lot of sets on a consistent basis and use them for MOCs) Sad that my friends could potentially judge me as this dysfunctional man-boy that can't put his toys down while in the work place.
     
    OR
     
    Super motivated that LEGO is actually conceptualizing RIGHT NOW AS WE SPEAK about some map ideas or Kanohi ideas or story ideas!
    Super motivated to consider pursing my super secret dream of doing graphic design work for the Art direction department for Bionicle!
    Super motivated that I can finally brag and discuss on a product and story that has such a rich history!
    Super motivated that, as I progress through college and save my finances for a potential spouse one day, I can be on BZPower again, engage in more conversations, and actually get to know more people that actually like Bionicle as much as I do!
    Super motivated that I can buy toys again for bragging right's sake!
     
    But...am I just being stupid about all this? Like I don't understand if I'm truly being immature or MUH-ture about this. I feel like most adult men would consider this kind of thing as nothing important. As if I should saying "Oh hey, Bionicle's coming back? Huh...cool", and then forget about it. Like I feel as though that MIGHT be the better response to this.
     
    But in contrast! Bionicle and BZPower was introduced to me by some friends and I got SO into it, that I discovered sprites, avatars, signatures, comedies….basically the internet! And the best part of all, PHOTOSHOP! The very thing I still do, since day one of actually getting inspired from Bionicle and BZPower, is use Photoshop! I've been drawing hard-core since 2008. And it wasn't until the day my Dad told me that I needed to draw something else besides Bionicles that I started becoming more Graphic Design orientated. And my studies and my talents are real. Like I know for a fact that I can do this stuff. But nobody told me to do it. I just...discovered it…it’s almost a blessing!
     
    I don't know guys. I love coming here. Even though I've never really been here enough to REALLY get connected with some of the cool groupies and understand where all these fads or contests start. But I always enjoy all the inspiration and all the literate talent and all the hilarious humor and all the crazy stories and all the inside jokes that I don't understand...I really love this place for some strange reason.
     
    I don't wanna feel bad about coming back here. I've had some serious thoughts about becoming a forum helper of some kind. Like take this seriously like a job almost. And then start making MORE cool stuff! Like I feel SO motivated to create stuff when I browse this forum. It's crazy!
     
    I'M CRAZY!
    But again...I don't know.
     
     
    I've kind of wanted to open this up to almost...I guess...a discussion. About whether if I'm being mature or immature about visiting this website. What do you all think?

    That Time of Year

    By Calvirick,

    Ah yes...that time of year where the Semester ends and I get to turn off all my alarm clocks. :3

    The 12th Doctor

    By Calvirick,

    SPOILER ALERT!
    If you don't want to hear from me who's the next Doctor for the series scroll down REALLY fast to miss my text. (I have no idea where the spoilers tab went...)

    The Bionicle Vibes

    By Calvirick,

    I can't help, but think that most of the theories that are arising in the Bionicle Discussion/Bionicle Theories Forums are heavily related to Bionicle 2015 being a huge similarity to the Old Bionicle Story.
     
    - Like, the Skull Spider's behaving like Krana.
     
    - The "Ancient City" appearing to be a dilapidated version of the present Okoto Island (and possibly floating). Eg. Metru-nui.
     
    - And of course finding golden masks, which is the the most obvious one.
     
    But what if it all comes down to the that fact that maybe LEGO isn't going to go into some real intense back-story? And most of these hopes and vibes for a real deep story aren't something we should be worried about?

    The Cool People

    By Calvirick,

    (I swear I've used that title before on this blog.)
     
     
    I'm all for one to see what the larger cliches are like in social groups, in and out of the internet.
     
    And what seems to happen a lot of the time, on BZPower, is that to be cool you've gotta do a couple of things.
     
    1. You have to like at least ONE anime, and it has to be an anime that everybody doesn't know about
    2. You have to post a lot in the blogs section of BZP.
    3. You have to comment in the blogs a lot. (if any, it has to involve BZPstuck)
    4. You have to post a lot in the General Discussion section. (I probably should've put GD section instead but I'm not cool so I can't use acronyms)
    4.5. You use acronyms for EVERYTHIIIIING
    5. You have to be involved in the BZPRPG some how, if not then you are DEEEEFINITELY not cool.
    6. In your blogs you are able to write essays and STILL have people read ALL of it. (even when they're about your 55th road trip adventure)
    7. You never changed your avatar for more than 10 years
    8. You probably cuss in real life
    9. You have a GIF in your signature like this: https://31.media.tumblr.com/8dc12a802c9a936e1be0d76722ef9bc2/tumblr_inline_n50tp1mirL1r0vgjj.gif
    10. You have this in your signature.
    11. You are the God of your short stories. (and people actually support you)
    12. You get 20+ posts of people saying happy birthday to you. (and probably more on your facebook page)
    13. Your username is Janus.
    14. and Hahli Husky
     
    and
     
    15. You go to brickfair...

    The lolz man

    By Calvirick,

    Man, dudes. I'll be honest, I don't watch Fallon late at night. Instead, I just read the blog comments.
     
    I'm hurting so much from laughing right now.

    By Calvirick,

    Gosh, I don't leave (to go have a little bit of a normal life) bzpower for only 2 months and the Staff is still as awesome and hilarious as usual.
