Well, first things first, here's the next chapter of Journey. (See! I didn't forget about it! I was just suffering from extreme laziness disguised as writer's block!

)
Well, here's where things finally start to get interesting. Perhaps feisty Camair's not as tough as we thought...

And Verlau's still a jerk, but at least he's a gentlemanly jerk!
Next up, I've been meaning to do this for a very long time, but never really got every thing together for it. See, I have a sort of "Star Wars Shrine" on my dresser that's filled with my best Star Wars stuff. It isn't nearly all the stuff I own, but most of it is either: a.) Papers, posters and drawings, b.)
BOOKS! C.) junk, or d.) in boxes. (I'm in the process of moving into a different room, so most of my stuff is in the basement gathering dust.

) Now just the other week I ordered the Forces of the Republic Pack or whatever it's called; I just call it the Mando Pack. It's the one with two sets of seven figures, one with Omega Squad, and one with a bunch of random Mandos and some clones. (It's
fourteen Mandos total!!!) It got here a few days ago, and that inspired me to somehow cram all my Mandos plus all my other action figures onto the shrine, which I did after several hours of re-arranging, and I figured I might as well show off the result. Alright, I'll stop "endlessly vocalizing", as my mom calls it, and show you my stuff (apologies for the crap-tastic quality.):
The Mandos, Boba Fett and Some Obi-wans and clones
The Commandos! Shiny! Awesome! Kandosii!
The Max Rebo Band and Luke, Mara Jade and R2. These are probably the coolest figures I own!
These are about half of my Star Wars Burger King toys. I tried to get all of them, but ended up needing only about five more!
These are all my "heads." The Amidala ought to look familiar...
These are all my absolute favorites! The Imperial walker is the pride and joy of my collection, the lunch box I inherited from my Marching Band's Clarinet section leader when she graduated, and the stuffed Watto- self explanatory. Honestly, who wouldn't want one?!
This is an inside view of the mysterious Naboo globe thing. It's pretty hard to tell from the photograph, but the figures in there are Obi, Qui-gon and Darth Maul and when you open it up, they move back and forth and "duel."
This is the rest of my Burger King Star Wars toys. Didn't bother to label them; I think you can figure out who they all are.
This is an Episode I picture I bought randomly at the mall just because it was Star Wars, framed by two of the three original clay lightsabers I've made: Ferus Olin's (

) and my OC, Rillaia. (The other one I made isn't hangable.)
In
this pic, the fuse-bead Star Wars characters are pretty cool, but let's focus on the most beautiful thing you've ever seen: Me as a Jedi!

I got this at Hershey Park last summer. I had been meaning to get it done for years, but last summer I finally had a ton of money so decided to go all out and get it colored and matted and everything! Aren't I amazing? (I trust you people not to use my picture to find out where I live and stalk me, Okay?!)
This gets its own personal photograph: The very first piece of Star Wars merchandise I ever owned! EVER! Granted, I got it more than three years before I first saw Star Wars, and it's just a cereal box key-chain, but I thought it was pretty cool at the time. I still do!
And
This (finally) is the over-all effect! Ta-da! Oh, and
here's a shot of my Obi-wan Force FX Lightsaber. Couldn't get a good shot of it in with all the other stuff.
Well, yeah, hope I didn't bore you with my endless rambling about my stuff.
In other news, Only a few more days until Invincible! Jacen's going down! And after that, only a few more days left until summer, which means Marching Band!!! (Yeah, I know you don't really care, but Band is my only life outside of Star Wars, so act interested, people!) Well, I think that about covers it! *dies of exhaustion*
Oh, and I know I haven't really written any blog entries about it yet, but I'm currently about half way through NJO. I just started Rebel Dream, and one of these days, I'm going to do a collective book review of some of the books in the series, but not today. I've said far too much already.
