Laini Taylor

Laini Taylor is a writer living in Portland Oregon. She has written three books and one graphic novel, all illustrated by her husband, Jim Di Bartolo. Her books are great (although I've only read one, but I'm sure they're all great...) and worth checking out, so I have supplied links below.

Electric Guitar...

I got a new electric guitar recently. I'm also putting together a demo album of my songs, so far I have three full songs and one 20 second little tune.

Guitar playing

I've been playing my guitar a lot lately. My left hand has gotten very dexterous from playing chords. It hurts, but it's dexterous.

I currently play an acoustic, but I'm probably going to save up for an electric guitar.

Paul McCartney concert in Canada...

He's gonna be in Canada, so maybe he'll make his way down to the United States... The tickets are a few hundred dollars for each person. Children five and under can get in free. It's times like these when I wish I was five again...

Here is the link to buy tickets:

Star Trek

I haven't seen it yet, but the trailers make it look really good. And the cast they chose is great, especially Spock.

I'm curious as to how they'll fit the old Spock(Leonard Nemoy)in it. Time travel has been used quite often. =P

Brickfest 2009

Brickfest is a Lego convention targeted toward AFOLs(Adult Fans Of Lego). I'm not an Adult, but I'll still be going. There will be some Bzpower staff members there, as well as some other great contributers to the Lego community.

If you're interested in going, here's a link to the website:

Profile, Austria, and uncle.

I took a look at my profile, and found it was sadly lacking in information. This may be why I haven't really been getting many comments.

I hope to go to Vienna this summer. I've been looking up some stuff about it, and Austria seems like a pretty nice place. What I really want though is to experience all this first hand. I have a friend who lives there too, so that's a big bonus.

My mom has informed me that my uncle has read my blog and thinks I'm a pretty intelligent kid. Thank you, I'm very flattered. I could also use some posts, so if you would be so kind.... =P
