In a secret facility located in Nevada, I was grown in a laboratory and raised by hyenas until the age of three when I was transferred to another facility and was further raised by robots. Watching TV one morning, I saw a very interesting commercial about a movie with a golden robot and other strange beings, and thought it was the coolest thing I had ever seen. Having learned that the movie was named Star Wars, I recorded it and watched it over and over again. I was already very interested in robots and other sci-fi things, so the Star Wars movies became something that I really liked. Because I really liked robots too, I frequently visited a store named Arngren Electronics to see a real robot that I have wanted ever since. When I started going to school, I had already seen all the other Star Wars movies that were released at the moment, and gained a few friends who liked the movies also. Further in the years at school, the other kids in my class thought I was good at drawing and making things, and even the teachers let me do things that I wanted to do because they thought I was good at them. Since I really liked the big robot I had seen at Arngren Electronics, I wanted to get one of them, and told most other kids in my class that I would get a real robot, but none of them probably believed me anyway. Unfortunately the robot was no longer for sale, but I later got my first robot from the very same store, the StampBug robot. As the years went by, some of the teachers still let me do many things on my own, and I was even consulted for ideas on how to make a scaled model world with miniature people, as this was to be a class project. Eventually the first school was over, and I started on another school for teenagers that was located a distance away.
Even at this new school, some of the teachers let me do what I wanted, such as writing a book in English, but sometimes I didn't do what I was supposed to do because of a corrupt school system, so I was permitted to do other things at a place called HVS with some of my friends. At this other place, we usually built things out of wood, sold wooden products, fixed things such as mopeds, and even got to race around on the football field on lawn mowers. Now that I had gained more friends at HVS, I got to buy my first moped from one of them. The moped didn't cost that much, but it was fairly beat up, but this became a cool project for me to work on while being a teenager, and the moped turned out pretty good. Around the same time, I looked around in a Star Wars visual dictionary and thought that I could perhaps make some of the parts from costumes and other things from the Star Wars movies since I had so much stuff in my room, so I started building things like this at the age of 14. At the school, the teacher I had in the arts and crafts classes allowed me to work on some of my costume parts too, and I got to sew some cool gloves and made other cool things, but the costume was never finished as I wanted to build a new one in the future when I'm more capable of doing so, but still the parts weren't that bad for having been made by a 14 year old kid. A few years later, I had built some more items and had studied many methods to build things, sew things, and cast things on the Internet, so it was time to start making a complete costume from the Star Wars movies, and I decided to make a Tusken Raider costume since I had always thought they were cool, and I like the desert too. The mask was only made of papier-mache, and the robe was made from a discount couch fabric, but still the costume looked very good, and I got many good comments about it.
Now that all the years at this school had passed, it was time to figure out what I wanted to do next, and since I was interested in robots and electronics, I chose a school where I could study these things, but I didn't like it that much at this school, and many of the things that I was interested in were things that we barely ever got to do, so eventually I gave up and stopped going to this school to go at another school where I could learn about mechanics instead. At this school, I learned that our main teacher liked the Star Wars movies too, so he also let me do what I wanted to do, such as working on helmets and other costume things. Now that I had a Tusken Raider costume that was mostly done, I was permitted to weld myself a Gaderffii axe for this costume. I had acquired a girlfriend some time before this, but we lived so far away from each other that she couldn't keep our relationship anymore, but later when she saw that another girl wanted me, she wanted me back, but then I left her again since she barely cared about our relationship anymore, so this and many other things had brought my mood down a bit. A while later, things became even worse for me, not because I couldn't handle an ended relationship, but because of many other things that were piling down on me, so eventually I thought about stopping going to this school. My teacher who seemed to like me even came home to me because of this and gave me a really cool gold X-Wing Fighter kit from the Star Wars movies to make me feel better, but unfortunately I had to end my year at the school after all.
Being as my life was now currently a mess, I also became very sick by all of this, and it affected my whole body so that I got even more sick from things like consuming too much sugar or the smell of waffles in a mall, so I could barely even walk outside anymore either.
Since I became so easily sick all the time, I didn't want to go to malls or anything else because I was afraid of getting sick in the middle of a crowd, so now things were even worse. I knew that I couldn't stay like this, so to get rid of all the bad things in my life, I wanted to get a girlfriend that would support me and make me better again to the state I was in before, so I looked around for the right girl and dated some of them until I did find someone who became my girlfriend. At the point when I was with this girl, I had already gotten slightly better from using my mind to alter my state, but spending more time with her did make me better, but alas she were not that supportive towards my current state and would sometimes get mad at me for getting sick. Now that I knew what she was like when it came to supporting me, and that other things she did annoyed me, I couldn't take it anymore, so I decided to leave her and find someone else.
A few years went by, and I was now old enough to join the 501st Legion, a costuming organization in which people from all around the globe can walk around in Star Wars costumes and collect money for charity, and this was perfect for me since I now love the Star Wars movies and costuming, and it didn't take long until I got to join the 501st Nordic Garrison at an event. I was already much better than what I had been before, but having trooped with the Nordic Garrison had made me better and better until I was pretty much back to normal again. When I was on my first event where I wore my Tusken Raider costume, I was called on my cellphone by a girl named Andrea Katerin, a girl who I had known even longer than my last girlfriend and who had always been very nice to me, and I knew she liked me too, so she also helped me getting better. When I was still a child, I had seen a few mannequins in stores that had Stormtrooper armor on them, and I always thought they were cool and wanted one too, but when I got older, I weren't that interested in getting a Stormtrooper armor anymore since I thought I was too tall to wear one, but when I was playing the video game called Jedi Outcast, I saw that there were indeed Stormtroopers in the game that were much taller than the regular Stormtroopers, so then I suddenly wanted to get a Stormtrooper armor. I spent a while saving money for a set of Stormtrooper armor, and when I finally had enough to buy one, I was totally thrilled about getting the armor kit in the mail. Now that I had the armor, I of course needed the weapon of the Stormtroopers, so instead of spending many dollars on buying one, I decided to build one instead while taking photos of the entire buildup. After the blaster rifle was done, I published all the photos with descriptions next to them on the internet, and it didn't take long until many people visited my website to see it, and they wrote very nice comments, saying that my blaster and tutorial was the best they had seen, and some even called me their hero and blaster God.
Now that I had seen how much people liked this tutorial and the other tutorials of the Stormtrooper helmet and armor, I decided to take photos of everything I built and made tutorials with these photos on the internet so that people could get the same help from my tutorials as I got from other people's tutorials many years ago when I was studying how to build costume items and prop replicas. I remember how much I loved to see tutorials of how to build things on the internet, so hopefully I have brought this same joy to others that want to build the same things. Now that things were going a lot better, I talked even more with the girl named Andrea Katerin, and eventually she even became my girlfriend. Every time I was with her, I felt so much better than what I had done before with my other girlfriends, and she made me much better in just a week than I had ever been, something that would probably take three or more years at a doctor, and I owe her a lot for having restored me back to a good state.
A few years after that, I was still building costume parts, prop replicas, game prop replicas, and much more, and finally got to restore my StampBug robot that I had bought so many years ago, something that re-sparked my interest in robots. The second robot that I bought after this was a green wooden robot called the Robot Hexapod Monster, then I decided to build a simple robot just to have made my own robot, so I started making Meep, a robot that can see light, play music, avoid obstacles, and much more, but since I didn't have all the components at the time, I decided to build a small bugbot instead, named Scap. The robot that I had seen in the store Arngren Electronics had always been interesting to me, and after having researched robots from the 1980's, I realized that this robot had already vanished from the knowledge of the robot society, so I decided to contact the owner of the store to get some more information. I had learned before this that they had one at the Norwegian Technical Museum, and was told this by the store owner also, so I went to see it a few times to get some more information about it, and found that it had the text Modulus written on it's module boxes. I asked the museum if they were willing to sell the robot, but they were reluctant to do so because it had been donated by the owner of the store where they had been sold, so that made me very mad. I visited the museum a few times each year to learn more about the robot, but still they wouldn't sell it, so I started looking for one elsewhere with no results what so ever.
At the age of 20, I was still building the same things as before and had even more costumes. I also became more interested in getting a Modulus robot than ever, so I asked the museum and the store owner many more things in order to get one, but so far the museum still couldn't sell me the robot because of a law, so I asked if I could at least fix the Modulus robot for them to get to see how it works, and I was fortunately allowed to do so when ever I could, and have so far fixed it up quite a bit. Having searched through the Internet many days and nights to find the Modulus robot, I stumbled across a website where I saw a robot that looked suspiciously alike the Modulus robot, then I realized that I had found the website of the very man who had designed the robot for a company named Sirius that had unfortunately gone bankrupt right after they started selling the robots. I sent an Email where I explained how important this robot was for me and that I had to have one, and hoped to get a good answer that would finally complete my quest. When I got a reply, they said they couldn't sell the only one they had, but they did at least send me some very interesting and useful information about the Modulus robot that I was very thankful for, so I decided to write an article about the Modulus robot on the Wikipedia website to make sure the robot will never be completely forgotten.
