That sounds amazing... Would you guys eat exotic good?
Man, was The Lego Movie amazing.
Spoilers (kinda):
The plot twist towards the end was really surprising. I was a bit miffed at first, but they executed it so well; at the end, the entire theater was applauding.
Not to mention, they had Lego Star Wars cameos and mentioned Bionicle. I'd definitely give it 5 stars and two thumbs (or tiny yellow hands) up.
Bionicle!? I am going to see that movie!
Not surprising. Bionicle saved them at a bad time, introducing a lot of the elements the Lego Movie features or embodies (I mean, the bionicle movie was the first real Lego-based full-length movie, after all). It's a shame they don't give it the respect of continuing the series instead of a dulled-down knock-off of it, but a shoutout is something, I guess. :\

Also, I am really envious that you have a 3D printer. We do have laser engravers/cutters/whatever, but I don't really know how to use them; there is a class for them but I don't have enough free space with the other courses I'm taking.
And, this year, the fourth quarter of my Robotics class will be an independent study, so I'm going to get a chance to do whatever screwy project my teacher can slap a rubric on. I've been planning on building a Segway :3
...My fourth quarter elective will be a study hall. I exhausted LITERALLY every elective in my school in two years. Blech. My school has a robotics team, but I'm not on it. (I'd have to quit debate, and just no.) Apparently, the coach/supervisor was really good when she was in high school and college, so I might pop in when I feel like ditching debate early. (These days, not one debater I don't partner with actually GOES to the practices/meetings. Just me and my partner. It's no fun, because we just type in silence and crack bad jokes.)
DUUUDE. I would LOVE to have half of your school's facilities/resources. I plan on snooping about bigger schools that have these things this summer, but my school is painfully broke.
Also: Got into a debate at school on the merits of a US-Mexico merger. Why? Because that's my case for debate, and I think it's funny. Until the nigh-racist remarks started flying. My political science teacher let it fly, but recorded the debate so people could hear what they were saying later. Many a friendship was made awkward. And then there were the people who defended their claims to the death. ("THE BORDER IS THERE TO PROTECT US FROM MEXICAN TERRORISTS!" was a common one.)
Haha, not gonna give too much of a big spoiler, but the ending was the best part IMO
. It might surprise yah.
Honestly, I hate it when people say that there's going to be a plot twist at the end. It makes the ending just as worse as if someone were to spoil the whole thing.
If someone tells me that there's going to be a plot twist/surprise at the end, I'm just going to keep waiting and guessing about what's going to happen, instead of actually paying attention.
But hey, not like I plan on going to see the Lego movie anyways, hah.
2nd place in SciOly on Saturday as a team. I pulled a first in Technical Problem Solving, a second in Material Science (this event is legit fun and difficult, I put in work for this thing along with my partner), third places in Elastic Launched Glider (we should've gotten first but our glider messed up a bit) and Chemistry of Food, and fourth place in Anatomy (this makes me sad I worked hard on this one and my partner wasn't great so I essentially did all the work myself).
I also got accepted to the second, or presentation, round of the Junior Sciences and Humanities Symposium for my research. It was yesterday but I've yet to hear results from them because the format this year is stupid.
Today I have the Long Island Science and Engineering Fair. I'm again presenting the research I have but using a poster board instead of a powerpoint like yesterday. If all goes well I get a free trip to LA and a complementary visit to Disneyland along with the actual International Science and Engineering Fair!
Hey guyz, my parents are thinking of enrollment me into Second City comedy classes. What you guys think?
A comedy class? I think you'd be better off asking Dual on how to be a comedian. (Or me, if you want to look stupid, my jokes are awful.)
He is not willing to teach me because I am too Bahamoote for him.
But honestly, all my friends say that I should go, cuz I am "hilarious", and the adults too. Now to the no-life gamers in their 20's(no offense guys)

I think you misunderstand who is too Bahamoote for whom. Plus you never even asked me.
But seriously, I'd go for it if I had the chance, definitely.
I don't believe this is true, because I made the Bahamoote song.
Thx. I will go now and became a comedian kk thx bai

Anyway, let's stay on topic.

...um..still thinking... uhhh... I GOT AN IDEA!!!...i forgot. welp end of me chatting here, guess im just gonna go to a thread that I can think of something on. :) just joking, gotta think of something um what about a song? (Singing) "Do the meeper dance, do the meeper dance..." :)) (Double smile)
You aren't supposed to treat threads like chatrooms... It clutters things and is generally ugly.
Like Cake said, only post if you have something constructive to say. This isn't a chat room, so posting over and over every time you have a new idea is not allowed, simply edit your previous post.
Also, good spelling and grammar are nice, but people disregard both sometimes, and I guess it's not too big a deal (to me it is, but whatever, haha).
That awkward moment at work when your boss tells you to organize something by color and they forget you're partially color blind. Made for a fun conversation.

I see blue, black and purple i think. I can see most primary colors. But when it comes to pastels and shades i can't tell them apart very easy. For example, I have a hard time seeing the difference between purple/pink and Purple/Blue sometimes.
Well, tomorrow (or today in some time zones) is Valentines Day, the day I actually feel awkward to go to school in. To all of the members in 4-6th grade, enjoy the candy as much as you can. Because in high school, it's about seeing people kiss in broad daylight in the middle of the football/soccer/softball/baseball/tennis field.

It helps if you don't stare at them
I find Valentine's Day horribly awkward for another reason. Usually, it involves hearing "*sharp intake of breath*You're a really nice guy, but..." from people. Like the girl I asked to prom today. I tend to strike out a lot. Strangely, these girls seem to be some of my closest friends.
I'm going to my dance right now with that girl I like. Happy Valentines Day everyone!
