Vader's other job

Thank you, Christine. Thank. You.

"The shield generator is down! Commence attack!"

We woke up at 1:04pm today. I figure that's our "sleep bank". We're gonna now take from that for the next week. In which we will go crazy. Like today. I mean it's 2:26 am and I'm blogging. Mostly because I'm talking to Nate right now about how you read magna from right to left. So today we went to the Edmonton Science world, because I refuse to call it by it's "real" name I got to drive Nate's car. We met up with Alby, the lady who Paul was corresponding with about our trip. She's really cool, and a bit of a geek too, so it helps. We both felt like celebrities when we were there, because everyone knew us. There was even a picture of us up in lobby! They had something that was way cooler than anything I could've imagined. They had a giant LEGO Star Wars exhibit, where a group called the Northern Alberta Lego Users Group had, I'm sure for Paul' and my amusement only, set up scenes from star wars, recreated totally from lego! Christine, Adrienn: These won't have much significance for you, but we'll take care of those when we watch star wars. Besides... they're cool! It's lego, c'mon! Aaaaand... I managed to break one of the models. HOWEVER, with my absolute pwnage lego skills (and using the force), I was able to put the custom built satellite back together perfectly. AND I figured that It's a good thing I did so. I actually helped the rebels destroy the death star, because I knocked out the shield generator! So it was a good thing! I can't believe it, though. They invite us over here, FLY us out,even, let me go behind the fence to take pictures, and I thank them by breaking down their exhibit. Great. Anyways.. then we went into the giant thunderdome theatre where we watched Return of the Jedi!!!! On a giganticus screen! That was after eating an awesome meal at the swiss Chalet, of course. I love being with Nate again!

I'm a Jedi

Check it out, Beeches. I got my first lightsaber today!

Mr.Ben, His Donairs, and Ferraris

So I woke up today... at 4:30 in the bloody morning! I wanted to try out the time lapse function on my camera to film the sun rise, and make it all fancy-lookin.. but work it did not. I slept until my optometrist appointment at 11:00, to find out that my eyes got better over the past year! I took a ride in the mall car with Wesley and he didn't succeed in running me over.

I went to the park, to my usual spot, where I read an AWESOME book... Star wars: Heir to the empire, by Timothy Zhan. SO good. I got really into it, then found out that the grass would make a nice pillow. I don't even know how long i slept! I got up, and Christine shows up, and we proceed to go eat some Donairs with Paul! But not before Paul informs me that our Millenium Falcon stop-motion video is now on the official star wars blog!! Apparently someone from Lucasfilm watched it! They loved it! As of now, we've got 10,703 views! We've climbed massiveley in the past 3 days. I think it was like this:

Monday: 500 views.

Tuesday: 900 views, on digg site.
Wednesday: 10,703 views, on the official star wars blog.


I'm just really glad that one of our videos is doing so well! Can't wait to see how far it goes.

ANYways, back to the story. We arrive at Mr. Ben's Donair, and We each have a loaded Donair full of goodness. Driving back, Christine slept a little, and we ended up at Improv, and I just lost the game. I dropped Christine off at Improv, to save us seats, and Paul and I went to get his car, and to maybe pick up a check at Plateau Pizza... which Darek hadn't written yet. However... our trip really was made worth it. The day got SO much better, when Paul and I saw a Ferrari F430 Spider, and chased it for a bit! SO sexy, that car is. Improv was hillarious, as it always is, and the three men that WERE there, did an awesome job. Christine and I quickly hopped in my car shortly after, and, after seeing ANOTHER Ferrari(!), a 1980's Testarossa, proceeded to Mission, where she resides. An Awesome, awesome day.

UMOTD:
When Paul and I were driving side-by-side to Improv the whole way with our music synched to "Black Betty", turned REALLY loud.
