Finished the Minecart Hopper

Finished making my mine cart hopper system for my mind.

This video ended up being more helpful then the last video I posted:

It looks to be about 50 x 50. I will start by clearing out a section near my base.

Thank God for TNT! 

Should probably start collecting sheep too.

Minecraft Creation Mandala Part 3 - FINISHED!!!

  I finally finished this blasted project! It took forever and at times very frustrating!

Look how amazing it turned out!

That way, whenever I travel.

I know which mountain is my base!

Next Project:

Minecraft Creation Mandala Part 2

Almost finished! Just need to removed the glass!

Minecraft Mandala Creation Part 1

During my time last year without a job I got into Minecraft and that game has been addicting!

My current project is creating this mandala cross stitch pattern in game.

For the blocks I used the different colored glazed terracotta blocks.

I used glass blocks as spacers. I originally thought I would keep them there, but I didn't like the look. Eventually I will remove them all. 

I ended up placing it over my base as a beacon, and I'm almost finished!

The hardest part has been trying so hard not to fall. With the edition of 14.1, I started using scaffolds and that has helped... abit. There was a huge learning curve.

30 Day Song Challenge: Day 05 - A song that reminds you of someone

My high school sweet heart, he was a sweet guy and this was my sappy song to him.

Day 06 - A song that reminds you of somewhere

I was born in Scotland and then later my father was stationed there for a tour when I was in second to fifth grade. I have yet to see a land more beautiful then Scotland and doubt I ever will.

 

Day 07 - A song that reminds you of a certain event

When I was in college ,the first social I planned for the BCM was a pizza party and we watched Veggie Tales. It was awesome!

 

‎30 Day Song Challenge: Day 08 A song that you know all the words to.

A beautiful song I used to torture my parents with.

‎30 Day Song Challenge: Day 09 A song that you can dance too.

I've been practicing there moves. It's hard not to be addicated to this song.

Blogging Day 272: Is No One Taking Checks Anymore?

I recently had my debit card stolen about a month back. Actually, I had my debit card numbers stolen because my card was still in my purse...weird. Evidently they can take your numbers and "program" them a new card.

ANYWAY...

I decided not to get a new debit card because I have found that I spend less money when I have to run to the bank to grab the cash I need to spend. I have to think twice about every purchase I do. I also started using checks again for when I go the the grocery store. After awhile I noticed certain stores not taking checks anymore.

The first store I noticed was Whole Foods. WHOLE FOODS, a GROCERY STORE doesn't take checks anymore! Granted, I do not shop at Whole Foods a lot. This is a 6x a year treat. Well, maybe more now that I learned they make AWESOME Indian food.

The most recent place I learned was Five Below. I was grabbing a few things and went to the counter and went to write out a check and he said they no longer take checks. I was so frustrated. Unfortunately, I only had enough money to buy one thing and explained my situation with the whole card thing. He stated it was because of the economy. A lot of people are writing bad checks and a lot of stores do not have a checking system for checks, so they are no longer taking checks. All of a sudden it made more since. If I owned a store, I would most likely do the same thing.

Still annoying though...

Has anyone else run into this problem?

30 Day Song Challege: Day 2 Your Least Favorite Song

Blogging Day 243: Otakon Pictures

This past weekend I was at the Baltimore Convention for Otakon with my two of my brothers.

Otakon is convention that celebrates all anime, manga, and all facets of Asian pop culture.

According to the news 31,000+ people showed up!

That is alot of people!! ALOT!

Otakus infested the Inner Harbor of Baltimore!

I attend panels, watched anime, went shopping, attend a Lolita fashion show and took tons of pictures!

Today, I'm going to show off all of my pictures! Way to much to explain in one blog.

Next year I'm dressing up! That way while people take pictures of me I'll have an easier time of taking pictures of them!

Not a very good picture, I know. Her cosplay was to amazing to delete!

From one of my favorite animes Skip Beat!

This anime puts new meaning to," Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned."

Best liner ever came from this anime:

"If apologizes were good enough, there would no need for HELL!!

Miku!

This girl was posing for pictures. Epic pose!

Display of Al in the Dealers room.

Full Metal is another one of my favorite animes

Ouran Host Club

 

Ryu from Street Fighter

A very cool Gundam display.

This is my favorite cosplay the whole weekend. It doesn't show in the picture, but her make-up was amazing! 10 points all the way!

Naruto

This guy was awesome! My question is how did he get the thing in the building and up the stairs.

Epic Win!

DragonBallz

 Granted this was a Japanese Anime Convention it did have other awesome characters:

Number 1, of course, is Doctor Who!

Of course, the first Doctor Who thing I see is an awesome Dalek! The only other villain I saw was an Angel Assassin and that was on my way into a movie... I couldn't find her afterwards! I was so mad!

I saw a lot of girls dressed as the Tardis... I wonder if it has anything to do with the episode, "The Doctor's Wife". I did see a Tardis Lolita... unfortunately I was unable to get her picture too.

This guy actually has a David Tennant look.

These guys I saw walking in on the second day. I was curious why she had all the marks on her face, until I realized she was Amy Pond!

As I was talking to the guys above, this guy walked up. This is the only person the whole entire weekend that walked up for a picture. It was nice not to awkwardly go up to a person and as for a picture.

On a girly side note, I like this guys eyes... hehe

O.O... Allan is hiding in the background. Can you see him?

"As you WISH!!!!"

Creepers from Minecraft

Shaun of the Dead. You haven't seen this movie, you should!

Halo

Zelda, but not sure which game.

Ōkami Amaterasu from the video game Okami.

Too Cute!!!!

I was nervous at first about asking for pictures, but by Sunday all my inhibitions were gone.

Which is your favorite? What do you think I should cosplay as next year?
