Oh the feeling was exhilarating. I didn't expect to win.

My entry was a rushed one, I bought the model kit one week before the deadline and I had to build/prime/spray paint it during the weekend. Had to polish the details in four days and had it submitted two Saturdays ago to be part of the expo. The entries were on-display for a week, with the awarding of winners being held last Sunday. I just came back to claim the kit, didn't really expect to get a trophy.

I was hoping though, to at least win the raffle to get freebies. :oops:

Here's my entry as shot by the organizers:

And here's my shot of the model, when I came back on the second day.

And here's some guy's shot of me on the stage after being announced. I'm the guy wearing a black shirt and with hair tied back.

So really, it's a geek thing.

3rd place isn't winning.

Entry #69

Re: Dear LiveJournal,

Wed May 30, 2012 3:38 pm

I originally had #61 and #62 for two entries, but I retracted, and entered again. They gave me #69. :cheeky:

And what a number that is. :cheeky:

Of course. Makes it easier to hold it from behind while you're on all fours.

3rd from left, loser with jealous murderous rage in his eyes for not placing in the top.

Just left a really big dent in my dorm's wall upon finding out the Bobcats pick second next month. Hope nobody notices :shifty:

You're troubled over that? What are you college or kindergarten?

He's too busy picking up all his trash to go to class and learn about probabilities.

My god damn manager calls me and tells me I have an interview tomorrow for my promotion and to bring a change of clothes to look good and the interview is about 30 minutes after my shift. Way to give me time to prepare. I don't even have time to get a trim.

No places close to your work that you can get a quick trim during lunch time? That's what I tend to do.

I work the grave yard shift, so no. It's not messy, though. I would just rather look completely groomed, but I dint think it will make a difference.

good job, get mo-money

Just reconfigured our cable, we are returning our 2 SD boxes for 4 HD boxes (which do 3D if we had that option, or if I buy that PS3 TV with my $50 GC to Best Buy for $150) and keeping our fast internet for $20 less a month....

...also, my RMA'd RAM I got for father's day finally made it to California, so hopefully that gets back to me soon.
