    Well, I got my Brickmaster today, and it included a Hero Factory little pamphlet thing, which gave me some inside info on the story. But I didn't think like I'd seen enough, so I took a little visit over to the theme's site on LEGO.com for more. Some of it intrigued me, I guess.
     
    And sure, the feeling of newness, of beginning, it was cool; Mostly because it was nostalgic. I really badly wanted to get sucked up in that. I wanted to feel like I felt as a 6-year-old, back in 2001. And there was a glimmer of that, a little part of me who thought, "wow, this stuff is awesome!"
     
    But I suppose I'm too grown up now. The storyline seemed so hackneyed, so lame. I wished so much that we could just get another BIONICLE world, one with nothing to it in the beginning but a name, if that. I didn't want a universe that connected back to our own planet. Hero robots fighting Bad-Guy robots, that was almost BIONICLE again, and that made me happy. But bring that to Planet Earth, and it all changed.
     
    I loved the simplicity of the new beginning. I hated the initial story placement. I loved the feeling of nostalgia from something fresh. I hated the shallow cliches of the characters. I loved how it looked like BIONICLE revamped. I hated how it wasn't that. I loved some of the sets, hated others.
     
    I guess we don't know what we've got 'till it's gone.

    Two performances. Tons of friends. Tons of food. Tons of fun. Tons of musicals. Tons of MOCing. Tons of listening to music. Tons of family in town. Tons of corn on the cob and watermelon. Tons of chillin. Tons of memories. Only one more week of school. Only one more HW assignment to complete.
     
    And I feel very happy.

    So yep. I downloaded the game Portal today, cuz it was free and I was bored.
     
    And I ended up playing almost all of it since then... Since it was FREAKIN AWESOME. Me, crazy much? Nah. Anywho, now I'm afraid to try and start watching the show Lost like all my friends have been telling me to, for fear of that being as absolutely addicting as they claim, like things turned out to be with Portal.
     
    And the Cake is a lie. Of course.

    EDIT: Also, this appears to be my 700th blog entry. Yay? One would think I'd have done something better for this momentous entry. But hey, I guess I'm just disappointing.

    Something has come to my attention,
     
    In many of the "In a Line" topic subtitles, the topic starters will say things like "Why did I do this?" or "No, not another one!" or things like that... but, lo and behold, they were the one to have made another topic in the fad...?
     
    People, if you want to complain and kvetch about the fad, grumble all you want, and be my guest to do so; but really, if you yourself made an "In a Line" topic to contribute to the fad, and now you're bashing that same fad in the topic you just started - that's not just hypocrisy. It's that kind of epicly annoying hypocrisy that makes me want to throw a rock at a window.
     
    Easy solution? Don't. Make. The. Topic.

    I would've bumped the last entry, but it seems that I was rude there, so not much use to that... =P So I'll ask again - do y'all have any cool ideas for blog themes?
     
    And in unrelated news, reading Shakespeare as a book rather than seeing it performed as the play it's intended to be is, in my mind, butchering the material.
