Dark Sword Ragnarok

As do I (owning the biggoron sword). Your right, the Master Sword is more iconic. The Four sword I think is a variation of the Master Sword. On another note, who made the hilt of the Master Sword purple? Oh wait, it's the Japanese. Crazy coloring is just normal. (no racism is intended by the way, I am 1/6th Japanese). DSR

I kinda like how you used a bunch of random parts for the aliens arms. I'm sure these will get better! DSR

FAIL: Not the most powerful weapon in Ocarina of Time- the Biggoron sword is. The one you have to do five billion quests to get and is almost the same as the Biggoron knife you can get as kid link, but bigger and unbreakable. nothing worse than being stuck with a broken sword! Also, that link isn't working. DSR

MODS/ADMINS: If this does not belong here, please PM me/lock/move the topic. Thanks! I've been thinking about a lot of opinions on the new SW sets and even the '08 sets. I was wondering why everyone is so harsh on TLC sets. Is it because we expect too much? Everyone bagged on the Twilight (clunkadunk) before it came out. I've seen first hand the design and creativity of the thing. Everyone is so critical on TLC's stuff, but I've noticed that we are much less harsh on MOC's. What I want to know is, if it were a MOC and not a TLC set, would your opinion be different? (By this I mean any SW set) I'm curious as to what people's opinions are. DSR

I play Quads, Bass drum, and my drum set. I can't read notes well, percussion is simple enough though! DSR

Wow, that is amazing! You should post that in it's own topic. I don't think clear canopies are really nessassary as long is there is at least a viewscreen/computer screen on the inside. DSR

Hate to double-post, but I wanted to update, and I was afraid no one would see it. I may have just gotten completely screwed. I think I may be in a jacked up love, uh, shape thing. Not exactly a triangle, because I like Ashley, Ashley likes my friend, and my friend likes some other chick. He (I think) may have changed his mind about Ashley. Not directly, really, but still. Somehow, when he was texting her, she brought up "what would you do if I kissed you?" Which, I think he said "kiss you back", because the text he showed me said "that makes me want to kiss you." The last one is the only that I saw, but he said that's what went down. He could have lied, but I don't see why. I'm not really sure what's going on anymore. He makes fun of me for being a wuss and not asking her out, which I can't do now because I promised her I'd wait until she and him were over, then rubs it in my face that she likes him more than me. Tell me, what the hell kind of sense does that make! His logic defies me... Then, of course, at band rehersal, two of my different friends literally dragged me outside and pushed me up against a fence, telling me I was GOING to ask her out or they were going to beat the hell out of me. I don't know why it's so freakin' important to them. Now they are really, honestly pissing me off. I had to get her away from them and tell her blatantly, "do NOT listen to either of them, all they're trying to do is force me to ask you out. Whatever they say, disregard it." I am really confused as to what the hell is going on in my life right now. I don't like not knowing what's going on. I need some form of closure, whether or not it's what I want to hear. Blegh, my life can really suck sometimes. Kind of reminds me of a match of Halo 3 or Call of Duty 4. As soon as I get back on track, as soon as something starts going my way, something/someone flys in and blows it all to hell. My luck is just utter crapola. On topic (kind of) I got my harness fixed for marching. It was too long and the swing bars that connect to the support bar on my quads were too far out. Went to the gym during Spanish for Day of the Dead, even though it's two days too late. It's supposed to be on the 1st and 2nd, but those days were Saturday and Sunday. There were a bunch of altars for famus people. We took notes on them. It was kinda interesting, better than being in the classroom. Wish me luck that SOMETHING will go good for me this week. DSR

That was the original issue, her saying no. Anyway, I texted her with my friends phone for around six hours last night after our competition. I found out alot about her actually. I also found out she still loves my friend (the original one, it was his phone). But, she said that she just wants to see what happenss between them, but if things fall through, she would definately give me a chance. That concept is a little new to me. I'm still proccessing it, really. She is really great, my friend has no idea what he's giving up for another girl. Her morals are amazing. She hates how most girls won't even give someone a chance based on first glance, instead of them as a person. It felt really good to be recognized as a person, you know? Like I do have feelings. Now all I have to do is wait for him to cut her off, and I'll be there to cry on... Things are looking up for me, fellas! Also we got a trophy at the competition for 6th place. Just thought I'd mention. DSR

Nice! Well, tonight's football game got rained on, so us band guys had to pack up and leave. Got the trailer packed up for the competition tomorrow. Made a bit of progress with Ashley tonight. She kissed by hand because I jacked up my wrist somehow. I told her it was my wrist that was hurt, and she replied with " It's BETTER now, okay!" "....uh, yeah, okay, it's better....(slinks away slowly...)" I'll try and sit with her on the way up to the comp. tomorrow. My friend Angel is trying to force me to ask her out. I'm thinking about telling her all the crap I'm getting for hanging out with her and not asking her out, just to see how she reacts. But if I do that, I'm running the risk of an extremely awkward situation, like this for example... "My friends keep giving me crap because I don't want to ask you out." "What, do you not like me or something?" Or.. "Why, do you want to go out with me?" Awkward both ways, and they both run a risk of losing her as a friend. Any suggestions, anyone? Anyway, I want to just let this whole thing take it's path before I make a stupid choice, and my friends keep interfering. It's starting to piss me off a bit... DSR

Thanks. In other news, if it rains tomorrow night, we don't have to play at the football game! Yay! But, if it rains saturday, we grin and bear it through the band review. Oh well, I just hope it rains tomorrow. DSR

Yeah, take it from me, if you want a real black color on a darker color piece (like brown) DO NOT use sharpie. I've made that mistake. Only use sharpie for white element and such. And don't do it to the entire thing. With sharpie, it's only good for detailing. Look at my clones, they all have sharpie detailing. But that's it, detail. I also wouldn't use white-out, just beause it flakes way too easy. You'd be repainting it all the time. DSR

That is pretty interesting, and strange. Luck, I suppose? I don't watch baseball, but I've heard good things about the team from my cousin, who DOES enjoy baseball. What year did the Steelers win the Superbowl? I also don't watch football much at all, but I'd like to know nonetheless. On topic, got my eye exam today. Got set u[ with some new glasses, and they'll be in by tuesday, just in time for our seccond band review in a row. This should be fun, 3 saturdays in a row, I have to be at school early, ready to march. It wouldn't be so bad if we had a weekend in between each, but that's just not going to happen, I guess. I never seem to catch a break anymore. Hopefully, I'll spend some time with Ashley the next few weekends. DSR

Uhh, thanks? I don't know how romantic that is, considering we're not together, but okay. I hope I'm making progress here. Good luck to you, my friend! DSR

Huh. That is pretty wierd. Get your facts straight before making any moves, trust me, or you'll regret it later. People say things. Yesterday, had band rehersal. Fun. Marching for an hour and a half, with little mini-breaks in between. Talked to Ashley a bit, mostly when we were just running our march song. I was sitting down in the back (even though we were outside, I just sat down on the Cheerleading blocks on the track with the rest of the drumline, still wearing my harness.) My friend Angel made a comment about Ashley looking like someone we knew from our old school, but "not as fat." Wrong choice of words. She took it completely different than what he meant, just as I expected as he said it. Then I told him that the way he said it was rude and a little offensive, and to choose better words the next time he says something on that kind of touchy topic. Then Ashley said "Wait, why are you offended by that?" and of course, Angel said "Why do you think he would be?" "She thought about it for a seccond, then said "Oh, that's mean, Angel!" I (of course ) missed that. Apparantly, he was referring to both the fact that I'm a little overweight and the fact that I like her enough to be offended by people bagging on her. I don't know which meaning she caught, and I don't want to know, really. Then, when we were done marching, our drum major, BJ, had us all get in a big circle. Ashley made me stand by her. I was on her left side. Just my luck, BJ tells us all to face the person on our right and massage their backs. In my head, all I could think was "Oh, you have GOT to be sh*ting me!" (Excuse my language there) Wow, was that awkward. It's like the world is out to just embarrass me. But, she thanked me afterward, and said I'm good at it, so I suppose that wasn't a loss. Then, after practice, I had to give my friend Taylor (the one who went out with Ashley) a ride home (we alternate every week, saves gas). I was with him, and he wanted to go get something to drink. Ashley wanted me to stay with her until her and Joey got picked up. I chose Ashley. Taylor was not happy. Of course, a few minutes later, Ashley got picked up. She said bye, gave me a hug, and as she was walking away, did one of those heart shapes with her hands. I told her I had no idea how to do it, and she thought it was pretty funny. I just said love you back. Today I had Drumline practice. I only had a half hour to get food and make it back to school for it. We got out at noon, and practice was at 12:30. Got to Mcdonalds with some friends around ten after, then took FOREVER to get my order. made it back around fifteen till one, but I was with six others from drumline, so it wasn't a big deal. Practice ran late, and I had to leave at 2 for an eye appointment. I walked back to the band room with my Bass, and the freaking door was locked! I ran back to the field to get someone to open it, got my stuff, and left. I was late to my appointment, but meh. Talked a little to Ashley. She was with us out on the field because her brother Joey is in drumline with us and she didn't have a ride otherwise. When I was trying to hurry out to the band room, this is the short dialouge that passed between us. (easier to type this way) "Where are you going so early?" "Gotta go to an eye appointment. It's at two thirty, can't ba late." "Oh, okay. Talk to you later then." "Kay." "Love you!" "I'd do that little heart thing, but I can't with one hand." "Okay, just say it then." "Kay, love ya too." Progress? A hope? Maybe? Meh, I don't know. The friend that originally went out with her says that she told him that she isn't over him but only says it when he's alone, not in front of me, or any of either of our friends. Strange? Yes. Proof? I don't know if there is any. I'll get to the bottom of it soon, though. I can't believe I wrote that much! Hope it's not too confusing... Well, enjoy the latest update of my life! DSR

Well, yeah, I suppose we just needed a place to vent. Well, today I couldn't log on from Engineering because we started a stupid project. But on the plus side, Ashley was here today, so that was good. I'll see her tonight at band rehersal. But it's wierd, she talked about my friend alot. Hopefully that's only temporary. I don't think I'll ask her out anytime soon, unless I get some for-sure signs that she would be interested. I just wish my friends would stop giving me crap about not wanting to... In other news, we worked on our drill for Street Percussion song. It's flipin' weird. I've never done one before, but I suppose it will look good when we figure it out. Our song is going good, it need some cleaning up, but we've got it almost all the way memorized. Looking good so far! Wish me luck with Ashley , and our drumline with the competition on Saturday. DSR

Okay, time to get crackin' on these new sets! Ahsoka's Starfighter Great, a set that's not over $80 that has Ahsoka! That makes it a must buy for me off the bat. Plus, a dark red astromech! It may have green on it, but oh well. The Vulture droid looks at the very least better than the previous. And Dark blue FTW! The Buzz Droids are most likely prelim, but if they aren't, it won't stop me from getting this! Clone BP Not much to say, mostly a fig pack. But amazing figs! Assassin Droid BP Not much to say here either. Not as good figs, but a good amount of blasters, and black droid parts. Hyena Bomber Looks good to me. A beefed up Vulture fighter. And you know me, any vehicle beefed up is cool! Plus the Jet Droids are cool. AAT Flippin' amazing! Dark blue tanks are great in my book! SBD's with the cannon arms from SW: Republic Commando are sweet. ( I think that's their first appearance, correct me if I'm wrong) Yoda with eyes? FTW! Loving the chrome sabers. Republic Attack Shuttle Dark red, yay! It's like the prototype of the Imperial ship. Lovin' it! Mace Windu, FTW also! All amazing in my book. DSR

I know, my entire life is confusing. And good luck getting over your fear of rejection. Hope tomorrow goes better than today. DSR

Well, today sucked. A lot. At lunch, one of my friends decided it would be funny to ask out my friend's ex for me, who I have no interest in. She said no, and apparantly feels sorry for me and thinks I look like a girl because of my hair. Also, a girl I used to like a little bit, Jodie, apparantly thinks I like her still. I wasn't around for any of this, and am extremely confused. Ashley was gone (but I said that already, didn't I?) and that made me sad. Then I went to a friend's house and played Halo 3, which, by the way, I suck at on Live. While playing, he mentioned that Ashley told him that she still liked him? I don't know if it's true or not (I read his texts while he wasn't looking) and he kinda pissed me off. Then he started saying that she was only hanging out with me to piss him off. Which, thinking back, could be partially true, except we started hanging out in Santa Cruz before he dumped her. I am a very sad, confused guy right now. God, my life is full of crap sometimes. Well, wish me luck for tomorrow, I suppose. DSR

Will do today, possibly. Took some pics of a small MOC I threw together last night of a scene from Star Wars: The Clone Wars. The episode on friday, Rookies, was the best one yet. Well, we're not doing anything in Engineering right now (I'm posting from school) and I'm seriously bored. I'm lucky eurobricks slipped through the cracks on the computor filters here. Flickr is blocked, though. Well, Ashley isn't here again, so that's a no-go. Damn, my luck can suck sometimes. Oh crap, that rimed and I didn't want it to. Well, at least I get to keep my face in it's current form for another day! Now I can't wait for Tuesday night band practice....wow, never thought I'd say that! DSR

Well, the world works in strange ways, I suppose! Thanks, and best of luck! Anyway, on topic (before a mod decides to kill us) I did some cleaning today. Nothing exciting. May get to work on that dropship soon. Or, I'll just take pics of that Rouge Shadow Hybrid that's been sitting around for a while... That way, I can use the parts for something else! DSR

It's not that it bothers me, I was just surprised by the fact that it's supposed to be based for children and they would allow that in. Also, to obligatory violence (even if it had no blood) surprised me, but I didn't think it wasn't cool. But damn, do I love the show! (this is coming from the guy who is in love with Terminator: the Sarah Connor Chronicles. Yay, violence!) DSR

Oh my God I freakin knew it! More proof for my theorem! When I spent time in Idaho over the summer, I saw at least two or three people I tought I knew, but just barely looked like them. Contraversy, I tell you! Anyway, that is kinda wierd that we're so similar. Especially the OCD thing. The extreme fear of rejection though, I'm sure is just coincidence. Although, it has held me back in a lot of cases. I guess I'm just not a risk-taker. Well, good luck with Abbie. Hopefully I'll have some luck with Ashley. DSR

Definately. The clones are so badass it's not even funny. I loved how Hevy sacrificed himself, just because of a faulty detonator. I can't believe they managed to say hell twice in the same episode before, especially on Cartoon Network in the U.S. But, it was still awesome. DSR

Haha, well, I suppose we both have typical high school lives. What exactly sounds like your story? Hopefully your not OCD like me. I dislike people touching me (girls are okay though, it doesn't affect me as much if its not a guy), people touching my stuff/ Lego without me specifically saying "yes, you can touch that", I always feel like I'm forgetting something for some reason. I also don't trust people very much, mostly not at all, just because of all my crappy life experiences. I have a pretty high threshold for pain, due to being beaten at school regularly before. Mostly just punches to the arms and stuff, but it made me alot stronger. It also taught me not to fight back without good reason, because the one time I did, I laid out one of my friends who gave me a dead-leg. In his back, while he was off guard. He jumped back up and laid about 20 blows into my stomach/ chest area. Ouch. Anyway, still thinking about asking out Ashley. Maybe. DSR Edit: Just so I doin't double post. Tonight, I got a new avatar, Star Wolf based, with my initials, DSR, on it. took me an hour or so on flickr getting the size just right. Also fixed my sig, so I have pics/links in there again, since my coding went to crap a while ago. DSR

Sorry, I kind of ranted there. Well, I want to ask her out on monday, but I have this this extreme fear of rejection thing, which kind of makes me hesitant. And I don't think he'll hurt my face, more like my ribcage area. Piledrivers hurt, my friend. H did it once a few years ago while I was laying on the floor on my side, and I swear to God one of my ribs made a popping sound, and I couldn't breath for at least a minute. That was not fun. Well, sorry your day has sucked so far. Hopefully you can rebuild your RGS. Glad you got a chance to talk to Abby, though. That's always good! Have fun with KotOR II. Maybe I will ask out Ashley soon, but most likely not monday, unless my health is threatened. I just don't want to ask her out, find out she doesn't like me as much as I hoped, then make everything hella awkward. This has happened before, mind you. Not the best experience of my life. I think she likes me, but, well, I don't know. We didn't talk much in Santa Cruz, but she really liked the fact that I was willing to walk with her as she limped with her crutches 20 feet behind everyone else. I wanted to wait a while just to make sure she likes me back, but I don't know if someone else will take her before I get a chance. My friends have all warned me about that already, and this is the one time that any of my friends have thought I could actually get a girl, so, I'm a little bit encouraged, I suppose. I'll think about it. Wow, it looks like we're turning this topic into a teen life thing. At least its getting some attention now! DSR
