I built my first LEGO set!
For the first time in my life, I built a LEGO set from beginning to end. Also for the first time, I actually own some LEGO bricks! The most of LEGO that I've owned before this were two LEGO figurines of Hermione (which was a keychain) and I think what might have been a Stormtrooper or Boba Fett (lost it years ago and can't remember what it was, but I'm pretty sure now it was a ST). Mike and I had stopped by Target last weekend to grab some sets for his nephews' birthdays, and he surprised me by getting me my first ever set! He was pretty astonished when I first told him that I had never owned any a few months ago. I've played with other people's bricks, but never had any for myself. Though the selections were limited, and I wished my first set could have been from the Harry Potter line, I have no regrets with picking out the T-16 Skyhopper from the Star Wars line! I even have a few left over pieces to put towards my own collection! I've already been looking up all the different things I can do with LEGO bricks and what I want to make next!
Now, if I could only decide on my next set...
Aww! That's awesome dude! From what I understand, it can become quite the obsession, so be careful! Haha. 😀 My partner and I have some lego creations that we put up around the house. That shiz takes time, yo. You gotta make it and display it. Hehe.

That's why I'm trying to have a reserved mentality about that. We don't have anymore available surfaces to display them so I'm planning how we're going to design our office room when we get out this place next year so we can get more an show 'em off to da werld! Life goals, I've kinda got them.
That is AWESOME! I don't have the patience for LEGOS or anything you have to take your time on. My husband could sit for hours and do that though!
I'd love to see you build/put together a Harry Potter set! 🙂
I have been actively searching for an affordable HP one! I've thought about going crazy and just trying to find the blueprints for the Hogwarts Castle and building it from scratch. We'll see lol
Oh my goodness! If you build it from scratch, I will worship you! haha
Honestly, I think I'm going to have to. I have found virtually nothing, and of the nothing it was super cheap and sad looking. Have to wait until after we get our house, though, so I can have money and space to build.
