Erm.. Hi?

Post by Bandaid »

Hello, inhabitants of CC forums, permit me to introduce myself, in a long and digressing sort of way.

My name is Josh. I've been a fan of Lego ever since I was a child, but this is the latest of the few attempts to join a group of fellow fans.
Lego was my main interest when I was a younger teenager, but with the challenges and obstacles of growing up, I gradually lost interest in Lego.

But, a few months back, on a trip of NYC, I walked onto a thrift store, where I found a slightly worn 7672 Rogue Shadow set.
Seeing how it was only 20 bucks, I bought it and took it home.

After fooling around with it for a while, leaving it alone for longer, the rotating wings reminded me of a windmill, so, taking the entire thing apart, started working on it, and before I knew what was going on, it was 5 in the morning, and there was a pretty nifty black windmill on my desk.

With my passion for Lego ignited once again, once I had the chance, wandered off to a TRU, where I found x3 5615 The Knight sets, which I immediately bought.

With new MOC, and with a few new sets, I decided to join a forum where my passions could find me friends, of sorts.
Seeing how I was already lurking here, I decided to join and see where it would take me.

[/long]

So here I am. Sorry for the long rambling post, I kindasortawanted to explain myself, in a hopefully interesting and elaborate way. :3

I'll try to post up the piftures of some of my stuff soon.

Um.. Thanks for reading? o.o

Anyway, permit granted. You can introduce yourself, stay as long as you like, and I guess have some fun, too!

Thanks for the welcomes, I also hope(1) that I'll enjoy(2) my stay(2,3) here.
We already have a Josh here, so you'll have to change your name!
Change my name? Buuu. Fine, compromise. He'll be Josh 1, and I'll be Josh 2, unless there's another Josh, which at then I'll be Josh 3 instead of Josh 2 and the other Josh would be Josh 2, unless there's another...

Anyway, permit granted
. Uh-oh. I guess I should have waited for permission before rambling. Meh. Thanks permission anyhow. :P

Sorry, too young for that. But I can wait. :P

During my college application process, I was trying to make a simple, short username, and was just typing random words to use, but bandaid was available, so I just used that, and I reused it here.

Er.... force of habit, ignore that.


Hey and welcome to CC. It's pretty awesome 'n' stuff. I think you'll fit in fine.
If you want a place to host pictures I recommend Flickr. or Brickshelf, if you didn't already know.

I look forward to seeing your MOCs. :D
...and that's how Equestria was made!

Don't worry, I'm also too young to drink beer (but not to have it at home) If I may impersonate that amusing russian comedian, (I cannot remember the name) "In America, you teach your young to drive and then drink. In Portugal we are too busy drinking to drive (and beware when we do :wink: )

HAHAHA! That's hilarious. That's the first time in awhile that I actually laughed outloud at a joke!
