    Amid the falling snow...
     
    Anyways, Enya quote aside, I woke up yesterday to snow!
     
    Yeah, it took me that long to blog about it.
     
    *Sigh* snow.. Winter... I just can't wait!
     
    And a question. What is your favorite part of snow? For me, it's just sitting there at night, with snow falling, and it's deathly quiet...
     
     
    *continuers to sit there, staring into nothing.*

    Have you ever noticed in Redwall, the usual plot.
     
    bad dude wrongs hero. Hero goes on a revenge streak, killing bad dude.
     
    Seriously. There are so many times in Redwall, when the villain is unarmed, defeated, and begging for mercy. Then the good character kills him in cold blood.
     
    And it's portrayed as a good thing. Which really bugs me.
     
    Another thing that's also portrayed as good, is gluttony. Seriously, if you look at the average hero (Especially hares ) they are total gluttons. It just annoys me.
     
    *Gasps for breath*
     
    There, rant done.

    Archery Meet

    By Grantaire,

    Yeah, the boys and girls club had a meet against the Cheshire team. It was my first time, and much different than whaty I was used to. We lost, although it was close.
     
    I did rank in the top five scores though. Only two people on the opposing team had scores better then me!
     
    I was surprised to do that good, after going three weeks without shooting.
     
    Afterwards, Element Lord of Shadow's dad took me, ELoS, and a friend out to eat, and their insanity made ME look normal (Yesh, you have a right to be scared.
     
    So yeah, I had my reasons for not being online all day.

    Back maybe?

    By Grantaire,

    It seems that roughly once a year I feel an urge to poke my nose back in here. This time I think I might actually stay this time, albeit on a somewhat inactive level.
     
    How is life for those friends of mine still around here?
     
    These last to years have been quite a change for me, I think. I went through my old blog entries (and by old I mean the first two pages because I didn't want to look back any further), and I'm a little surprised with how much of a tactless, immature person I was back in the day, especially towards the end of my activity back in 2013.
     
    Anyways, my writing has decreased significantly, although I keep telling myself I'll get back to it. I'm terrible without people encouraging me to keep going! I'm still studying for the priesthood in Philadelphia, and actually recently had the honor of living down the hall from Pope Francis when he visited Philadelphia; I'm still recovering from the craziness of that weekend.
     
    I have an epic that's been in the works for a few years, and hopefully I'll start releasing it soon.

    By Grantaire,

    BZPower has had a great run! but we need more diversity! Perhaps the name change fad of the mods could be the start of something greater.
     
    I ask you to join my and this club, to end BZPower's heinous reign, and begin a new era. For BarbieZonepower!

    Bbl

    By Grantaire,

    Going to be gone until Sunday evening/Monday afternoon.
     
    On the bright side, I started out my fencing philosopher Matoran Lasc in the BZPRPG.

    Blah..

    By Grantaire,

    So I go to the boys and Girls club for archery. I stay a little longer then usual. And then I waited around for a bit. Then I finally called my Dad. Who had forgotten to get me. And to make it worse, my Mom had told him to pick me up at five.
     
    So yeah, blah....
     
    On another vote, War Zone began. I must say, it's a good RPG, although I much prefer BZProvince's feel. *Shrugs* oh well. The EXTREME sandbox nature of it is rather interesting.
     
    And I got an RPG idea recently. A BZP ripoff of Matrix.

    Blah...

    By Grantaire,

    I hate getting sick... I couldn't get to sleep until like one AM, and kept on waking up during the night. So I was a zombie in the morning. Right around the time I had to review Ak's latest comic as well as Dovy's newest epic.
     
    However, I love herbal tea even more now...
     
    On another note, the Toa Foireann have been formed, with Mangai as leader and Aderia as deputy. And me as that random team member.
     
    And I had a million ideas for another Redwall fan fiction, but I can't write anything right now...
     
    So yeah, blah...

    Bleh

    By Grantaire,

    Is it just my imagination or is it a terrible stroke of bad luck that my digital camera died the day I got my new cat?

    Bleh, Bzprpg

    By Grantaire,

    Okay, after my spurts of tiny activity, I'm finally trying to get into the game.
     
    Problem? I don't know what the Karz is going on in it. Aka, I'm hopelessly cluelessly lost in it.
     
    I currently have two characters, a Le-Matoran philosopher fencer, who just arrived in Xa-Koro, and a mercenary megnetism toa, who is currently chilling in a Po-Koro bar.
     
    Does anyone know of any activity on the island I could get at least one of them into?

    Blowing the dust off...

    By Grantaire,

    Man, I have not used this blog in a while.
     
    Anyways, working on an RPG for the contest. Krayzikk is going to be head Gm, for which I am most thankful. However, I am looking for a few assistant GMs right now. the RPG draft can be found here. If you're interested, please let me know.

    Blue

    By Grantaire,

    So, we finally got around to cat hunting. we went down to the local humane society and browsed their cats. We found a really friendly black and brown tabby. He's 3-4 years old, and definitely a large cat (15 pounds). For some reason, he was named blue. He was really cute, awesome and friendly.
     
    ...And he covered my sweater in cat hair.
     
    Hopefully, we'll have him by Saturday/Sunday/Monday.

    Boredom

    By Grantaire,

    BZPower is boring these days. It's like it slowed down even more then before. :/
     
    ALSO
     
    League of Authors countdown/Short Stories Awards countdown:
     
    Eight days remaining until release.
     
    =D

    Boredom....

    By Grantaire,

    [rant]*Sigh* It's raining, school hasn't began yet (While some of it has, but I'm not in the mood to read more theology for beginners or world history). And reading history has officially given me a queasy stomach....
     
    No new reading material (Devoured five Rangers Apprentice books in half that amount of days).
     
    Too rainy to do archery (I'm not gonna let my current target suffer the fate of my old one.)
     
    So here I am, blasting Fireflight in my ears and reading random blogs.
     
    Kumata's I finished a while ago, so now it's....... Seneca Keep's turn *clicks on page ten*
     
    I hate boredom....[/rant]

    Brickcon...

    By Grantaire,

    While it's coming up, and here are the completed versions of the two MOCs I'm sending (According to the post office, they got there on Monday).
     

    » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « 
    And I turn fifteen in ten days ().
     
    So to those of you going to BC, make sure that you look for these two. We wouldn't want to hurt their feelings, would we?
     
    On another note, who thinks I should make a Star Wars song fic?

    Brickfair

    By Grantaire,

    (Insanely) plotting on the possibilities of getting to Brickfair, when I realized that I hardly know anything about the setup or anything, outside of what I've read in a few BZP articles, not is there much place to discuss it outside of news discussion. Anyone think a GD topic on brickfair would be good, or do news article feedbacks serve well enough?
  24. Grantaire
    First and foremost, I'm beginning to post an epic I've been working on sporadically for the last few years. The prologue isn't that exciting, but I promise that it gets better! Reading Fighting to Survive here.
     
    Secondly, I just learned that Brickfair will be in NJ, while I'm here in Philadelphia, so I'm hoping to be able to make it on Saturday.

    Burn It Down

    By Grantaire,

    Although I am of that strange group that actually liked A Thousand Suns, if Burn it Down is a good example of LP's new album, it will as good, and probably better than A Thousand Suns.
     
    It doesn't sound much like Hybred Theory or Meteora. I would say that it sounds quite similar to Minutes to Midnight, which is good, because I quite like that album.
