I have all of you to thank for being as great as you are. Because at the end of the day, it's really you, the people of BZPower, that keep me on here. This is the best, nicest, most polite, and most mature population of people who share my interests that I've ever found on the internet, for which I am grateful. I've made some good friends thanks to this site.
Another thing; my consolations to Velox for not winning our race. Oh well, it wasn't that important (not to him at least - I'll keep considering this important though so that I can keep rubbing it in his face. XP). Nonetheless, now you guys get to keep your eyes out for him, he's on the way.
Also, apologies for not posting here earlier - funny story, my PMship actually ran out last night, so I had to renew it. I guess that the money just didn't go through until this morning. And I didn't make my big 10K earlier, because I was saving it for posting my Alternate Teridax for the BS01 contest. Comments and critique are welcomed.
But now that I'm here, it doesn't feel quite as I imagined it, or really feel like anything at all. I mean, I suppose I'm proud of myself, but I'm not like, ecstatic, or anything, Also, it's now "official" that I spent a lot of time on BZPower, in retrospect, maybe too much. I dunno, in the past while, I've been on here progressively less, because I've been progressively getting more and more of a life, thanks to the plays I'm in.
I'm not really sure how I feel now, except that I realize that finally getting to 10,000 isn't all that it's cracked up to be, at least, not to me.
I looked at my Hero Factory sets, sitting on the floor of my room.
They're... cool.
And, can't believe I'm saying this... I want to play with them.
Not like pose play.
Play play. Make all them swooshy noises when they fly and shoot at each other and do missions and voice Preston Stormer as he heroically takes on three nasty villains.
Well, today I blew through 200 bucks of my graduation money to spend on LEGO Bricks. There's this awesome place about 20 minutes drive from my house that has sets from, like, YEARS ago, all for sale at about original retail price, and also has a MOCing area with a HUGE variety of parts (Best place ever).
I got a bunch of cool stuff, as one would expect, but what really amazed me was that they had...
*drumroll*
The BIONICLE Master Builder Set from 2002, new and sealed in box, last one on the shelf.
I was gonna buy it, but didn't have enough left if I wanted to buy the rest of Glatorian Legends.
But while driving back, I thought to myself, "How much could I have sold that Master Builder set for on Amazon.com, or something?"

Just deleted all those songs I hated from my iPod - and also bought the whole of Spring Awakening. Everyone says it's amazing, and from what I've heard, it's pretty awesome. Therefore, my music is now tidied up.
On a separate note, life has been busy. But in a good way.
Well, last time you saw him, he was legless. After a bit of work today, the Teridax entry of mine has gained a lower half, as well as some improvements on the upper portion. Again, I apologize for pictures that suck epicly - they were taken with artificial light, at about 9:30 P.M., among other things. Now, I want any kind of suggestions you have before I take what I hope will be final pictures on Saturday.
Anywho, here he is;
Tear it apart, I want you to. I want him to be perfect, or as close as I can get.
