New Toy

A box came in the mail today... and look who's inside the box! 8D This here is Kimahri (from Final Fantasy). I won him in an auction on ebay. This toy usually goes for $150 too $200 but I won him at $61.80. wOOt! I've been after this one for a while now. Man I'm gonna have fun with him ;D -BGN 

A Winnar I Am Not

So me and my family went to the New Mexico State Fair yesterday. We did the normal stuff like take our family portrait at a photo booth, ate some fair food, saw the animals, etc. But the main reason we went down to the fair was to see if my "Red's" won any prizes. (see my previous post http://blueguynow.blogspot.com/2009/08/its-fair-time-almost.html )

Well, it didn't win anything. xD


It just hung there making the space look pretty.

My dad said I should try entering it again next year but I need to put it in the "Hispanic Arts section," rather than the "Non-professional arts" section. I think I will try it out but maybe with a different piece. We'll see.

At least it wasn't like the time I entered something back in 2008. I didn't win anything that time but the piece that won First Place was right next to mine. :V

Here are some other pics from the trip to the fair!

a view of Main Street featuring my little brother! (the little freak xD)

Some sheep getting judged.

Some mini horses! (I don't know what they're called xD)

Some normal sized horses. xD

Some members from Pojoque Pueblo doing the "Rain Dance."


And here's a shot of the Sandia Mountains near the end of the day.

Also, the mountains around my town got snow! D8

Its too early for snow! xDD

Its Fair Time! (Almost)

Today I went down to Albuquerque to enter a piece into the New Mexico State Fair.

The State Fair comes around once a year (around Sept.) and people from all over the state come and display their prize pigs, horses, cows, cakes, corn, guns, pottery, and art. Its a good place to show off your stuff.

I'm entering my Red's pic this year. It got quite a bit of response at a little local arts shindig we had here in town this month so I decided to put it in the State Fair.

The fair starts in Sept on the 11th so I'll have to wait till then to see if I won anything. xD

Also, since I was in ALBQ, I went up to the Petroglyphs National Monument to take some pics of myself (of me and my face, my face full of FASHION! ) xD

MAN, what a ugly freak I am xD

Back Home!

Well I made it back home yesterday (about 11:56pm actually xD)
Its nice to be home but I am already missing California. Comic Con was fun this year. I didn't get to do or see all the things I wanted too but I still had fun nonetheless.

Now back to the real world : P blargh.

Devious Blog Entry

This is where I chilled out for a while on Saturday while at the convention center. Nice little corner on the stairs in the shade. Good place to sit and relax---before going to stand in line for almost two hours for the Mythbusters panel, which we couldn't get into because the room filled up while we were still in line. >:V

Meanwhile, In San Diego...

Well, I thought I would be able to update my blog without any trouble but NOOOO was I wrong xD

Luckily I was able to get on today. So Here I am in Chula Vista, just south of San Diego on this Saturday evening. We had a interesting trip on our way out here. All the way across Arizona we encountered thunderstorms and heavy rain (i've never seen arizona so wet xD).

Laughlin was nice and sunny, and HOT. D8
I'm gald we only stayed the night there.

San Diego has been just awesome. Nice cool weather with a nice breeze coming off the ocean, all day, every day since we've been here. Plus lots ol' In-N-Out Burger.

My time at Comic Con has been awesome too. It hasn't changed much from my first time going back in 07. Still lots of people rushing to get the exclusives right as the doors open and lots of people dressing up (mostly as characters from games and anime, not a lot of comic book characters lol).


Tomorrow I'm gonna try to get a few autographs, and possibly get to see Adam and Jamie.

Here are a few photos on my trip. I'll try to post more later.

Here we are cruzing on through Flagstaff.

Here is Oatmeal heading on into Barstow.
