I done stoled this from

First Zoid:
I boughted a Hasbro Barigator and Dark Horn together. At the time, I worked at Toys Am Us and I saw someone buying them. After that, resistance was futile.

Favorite Zoid:
If you couldn't tell from the way I'm always rabbiting on, King Gojulas tops them all. However: Mad Thunder, Gul Tiger, Orudios, Storm Sworder and Seismosaurus are not far behind the King. Actually, they're miles behind the King because they fear his smite-y power.

Favorite release/line:
The Genesis line was incredibly exciting for me, as it came at the peak of my obsession. "NEW ZOIDS OMG *SPLODE*" The HMM line was a neat new idea; Master Grade Zoids that could be posed in a variety of compromising positions and possibly shed pieces that would never be seen again. My favorite line was probably the Rebirth Century line; finally, all those super-rare vintage buggers would be made available to those of us who weren't around for the glory days of Zoidage.

Holy Grail:
Do you even have to ask? I found about the existence of King Gojulas within months of discovering Zoids, and since then I've been going out of my goddamn mind wanting him; at least until Rebirth Century quelled the madness. I had also set my sights on Gilvader when I found out about him, though I had figured it was unrealistic to expect ever owning him. That kinda changed with Gildragon, eh? TWICE! Then it became Gungy and Orudios, then Gul Tiger... all of which I own now... damn, Tomy. Stop ruining my holy grail. Now, I don't really have one that I absolutely must own on pain of death. And I don't really feel motivated to change that.

Zoid(s) I'd pilot:
Storm Sworder would be kickass. But I'd like to pilot a Mad Thunder just for its sheer stompy-crushy factor. If I was forced to settle on a smaller bugger, then I'd take a Gul Tiger.

Favorite series:
I've not watched any of the series at all. So I can't really choose a favorite can I?

Stuff I'd like to see in the newest lines:
There's a new line?!?!?!?!? Hurrr. I'd like to see more HMM Zoids, like some of the Bipedal theropod beasties (aside from the Genos). I also want a Geno Hydra, Blitz Tiger and Trinity Liger. Go make those, Tomy.

Misc:
I'm sort of burned out with Zoids. That doesn't mean I'm not doing them anymore, but I don't really feel like making a big super custom jobby thingy. I'm focusing more efforts on my Starfleet ships.

Weeelllllll, some exciting news anyways. I've still got my jarb at Como Elementary, so I can do that in the mornings. I'm more or less set at Target, passing my 90 day review and such. One of my classes is almost over already. Uuuuummm, I've done all my field work for this class as well, which was all very enlightening and rather enjoyable; quite the opposite of what I expected it to be. I've done three observations, an assessment and a Developmental Screening at a nearby daycare for a psychology class. The kid I chose to work with, turns out, is very smart though he lacks social skills. Reminds me of me, actually, though at that age I may have had better social skills. Maybe not. Cor, that would've been 20 years ago, you expect me to remember that? Completely unrealistic expectations...

Er, right. In my spare moments, I'm drawing up a new design of Starfleet starship (I've been turned on to Star Trek by my collection of Resin kits. Or rather, my inner Trekkie has merely been re-awakened, it was only dormant). I won't say too much yet, but it's turning out nicely and will have familiar design elements. And I'm just demented enough to want to try to scratch-build it, though I don't see that going anywhere.

My Enterprise E that I've been working on for the past millennium (Spell check insists that that is the correct way to spell "millennium" but that doesn't seem right to me) will most likely end up being called U.S.S. Majestic. Why? Because the previous ship to bear that name became the USS SPABOOOOMMMM!!! Also, I've got decals to make it happen, but before that I need to hammer out the last remaining details and get the seam between the two main hulls cleaned up. To all modelers out there, take it from me: Fill seams and clean them BEFORE you paint. This is probably common sense to everyone except me. Don't blame me, I painted the damn thing years before I knew about modelers' putty.

Also, our local hobby store was having a sale, so I picked up yet another Sovereign class Enterprise kit. I have no idea what I want to do with it yet, I just wanted to have a fleet of Sovereigns. They're dead sexy.

I had a few hours free the other night, so I finally decided that something must be done about my poor Akira-class ship that's just been sitting in its box since last May. It's been cleaned, sanded and primed, all it needed was the nacelles attached. Thus, the nacelles are attached and it's already about half-way painted. One of the nacelles is slightly misaligned, though I'm probably the only one who would really notice. It's the tiny details that get right up my arse. And don't buy Jupiter Station kits. They're small and relatively cheap but both of my JS kits are molded a bit wonky. Once it's all painted up, a few kinks will be hard to miss, I think.

Ifn' ye canne' tell, I'm in a right strange mood. I've been sick with something obnoxiously mild for two weeks, and the medicines I've been taking to prevent it from worsening loosen my screws considerably.

1,000 PAGE VIEWS. *flips over table*

Am I supposed to make some sort of commemorative thing with the whatsits? No? Yes? Maybes? Arses to it, I haven't had the time to get to school to futz with anything.

As for Zoid projects, everything is suspended until such time my Enterprise E model is complete. And when I've finished that, I may start construction on my Sovereign class Dreadnaught. It's going to look like the Enterprise E, but with moar of everything and it will be unstoppable.

Speaking of which, I'm debating four name choices for it:

-U.S.S. Monarch
-U.S.S. Phoenix
-U.S.S. Valhalla
-U.S.S. Ragnarok

Anyone have a favorite name? I had me heart set on U.S.S. Monarch, but then the other options came in... and now I'm stuck.

I'm reading Bram Stoker's "Dracula", partly because I wanted to, but mostly as a protest against "Twilight". As far as I understand, Twilight is about angsty gay vampires who do each others' makeup in high school. What a bunch of crap. In my day (or any other day) we wouldn't have tolerated metrosexual hipster vampires. Therefore, I'm protesting by reading about a proper vampire. In the first 25 pages, they main character has already had the living shit scared out of him by his journey through the Carpathian mountains... at night... on the Eve of St. George's Day. And the Count himself has been nothing but a good host... a nice man with a decidedly ominous presence. Bram Stoker has a knack for descriptives, let's put it that way.

That is all.

Hooray for lack of updates? I swear, I have a few moar Zoids to post, but no big custom jobs yet. I've also finished Strike Freedom Gundam (Master Grade Superior Destructor Blast Mode version) and I am debating if I want to show off his funnel-y goodness. And I can't really post anything until I have a moment to get back up to school and use photoshop.

This week might be ideal... I just started my jarb at Super Target, but I missed yesterday's shift and will miss today's shift, because some bastard got me sick on Saturday. Yeah, that'll look good on the ol' review... At least this time, the cold didn't dick around and went straight to my chest. We loves Prednisone and Z packs, don't we? At any rate, I don't work again until Friday... I have some other school related business to attend to this week as well.

Speaking of school, I graduated in April with a cumulative GPA of 3.27. Could've been better, could've been worse. The school related business involves me getting letters of recommendation and turning in School Experience hours so I can get into the Urban Teacher Program and start that in the fall. I've already registered for Math Education and Special Topics in Biology: Biology of Dinosaurs, but I need to be in the UTP to register for the education classes I need.

Other stuff... er... I have a lovely box filled with Zoids CPs, and I've totally lost track of all the buggers I have. The only thing I know what I want to do with is my CP-26, and that's going on my second Gul Tiger. Unless I decide at the last minute that I don't want such a configuration. We shall see.

That's quite enough drivel for now.

Nevar order from TISINC99.com, evar. Unless you like nearly having your money stolen and never receiving any communication, even after you've had Paypal yell at them.

RCZ Gul Tiger GC has starting creeping its way into stores. GC stands for Gyrocrafter, because Gul Tiger comes with that grade up. Go get one NOWNOWNOW. On the other hand, Valga has been a pain in the ass to get, and one grows weary of waiting.

It was rather stupid of me to not remember having a paper due tomorrow until about midnight. Meep. Ah well. It's already done.

Ever since the idea came into my mind to make more ambitious Zoid customs, I've begun obsessively eying my shelves of Gundam models and wondering what I could harvest from them to put on a Zoid... is that bad? They certainly think so.

Speaking of the customs, I have acquired these CPs since the last listing:

CP-03 Beam Gatling x2
CP-10 Gojulas Cannon x2

I cannot get enough of this song. I will listen to it a few dozen times, then a month or two down the line the very mention of it will cause me physical pain. Alas, it is the way of things.
