UP TO DATE

We found a new house on June 29. It is small but effective. We moved there on August 22 and I felt comfortable once my bedroom was painted. I like peach better than pink anyway, obviously.

Anyways, on YouTube I'm going to start a Lego series that I will begin to work on in early January. It involves my Lego creations so far, which I'll use to make a big city. I'm waiting until January because I am still in the process of building and I'm also asking for Legos on my Xmas list. For my series, I wondered what I should use to give a guide on what goes on in the city I was making. I decided to make a series called Lego News, which features a Lego minifigure news crew investigating through every part of the area like all news crews do. It will act more like a local television station than a national news company.

Also, I've ditched Minecraft for Lego itself, which the latter is the non-electronic equivalent of the former. I'm going to post my very own creation of the Chum Bucket from SpongeBob on the Lego website too.

Quick Note

Sorry, we didn't get the house. There were a lot of problems, but we'll keep looking.

Moving On Up


Been a while.... Well, for my followers, we purchased a new house on May 20. It is bigger than the one we have now, and is a lot more conveniently located. It is in the Guilderland/Schenectady area of New York's Capital Region. I should note that we have had a LONG history with houses. I learned this from my parents:

The year was 1990. The Simpsons were invading America, the Berlin Wall had fell, and the grunge/punk genre had become the norm of the new decade. However, my parents, Lisa and Tom, got married, making 1990 a big change for our family. Mom and Dad, in their late 20s, lived in an apartment in Clifton Park, NY. They were only planning to live there for a short period, and had to find a house. With the Internet launching next year, the only way to find houses was a magazine. Dad picked one up at the Grand Union store nearby (now a Hannaford) and found a house over in the Rensselaer area. It worked for Mom and Dad because it was by Dad's workplace and they could pay for it. The offer was confirmed in December and by April of 1991 the closing had begun. In early May, our 24 years in that house began. My parents went through the 90s with quite a bunch of events - the Xmas of 1995 (Dad sick while Mom learning to use the Internet), the paint job of 1994 (colorizing the house), and several trips to Ireland as well. (We're Irish)

After the new century began, in the summer of 2000, I was being born. With my birth, I would be a big change for the family in the 2000s. I was born on March 4 at Glens Falls Hospital, and I was the only child ever since. I got to learn about the world around me, and one of the first instances of me and TV was the 9/11 attacks. Mom was watching News Channel 13 cover the attacks while I was sipping a bottle under the coffee table. Blowing through the 2000s, I saw interest in drawing, getting dirty outside, and a huge interest in the Internet.

By the 2010s, the house had started to look dated for its 90s style builds. Everything was old-looking, aside from my room getting a remodel in 2012. It was now over 20 years, and it was time to end everything. With me getting older, I started to see true friends and how to be social, and education becoming more important. We started looking at houses last June, and now we have bought one. I will be continuing life in the states with more news to come next few years.

Moving day will be in July. :)
