Living The Lego Life

Ever Wonder What To Do With Your Old Lego

Lego have been a big part of our childhoods, well at at some point we forgot about them and now they are probably sitting in the basement or even in the closet, well that’s not the case for  Sam Westergaard’ 21. He doesn’t play with them instead he does something unique.Lego are well known around the world  but do you actually know the story behind Lego

Sam, a former student at West High has been hiding one of his talents which is to personalize his figures to make them unique not only he does that but he also like to build buildings,any kind of hobby people usually start when they are bored or have always been interested on it ”Probably around 2013 I’d say,when like Star Wars Clone Wars was on and I just started making Lego of characters from that TV show” he says. There are people who think playing Lego it’s a kid thing and not really a teenager hobby, but Sam thinks otherwise, he has comment that when he tells people about his figures they find it weird but other people take it as something interesting “There are people who find my hobby interesting and would like to know more about it but there is also people who are confused at some point,due that they don’t fully get the idea or they aren’t interested.” he said.

Sam enjoys painting his Lego figures on his free time,he just enjoys personalize them.”I really don’t know how much spent on the Lego and the paint,I would say around $90….I just to paint over my old Lego figures to save money but know I just get a new set, and because each piece is unique.”he said. When we enjoy a hobby family can be a big part of it because you never know how they may react.”My family finds it really interesting and they are supportive.”he said.

It really does’t matter what your hobbies are,you shouldn’t care what people have to say about you.The only thing that matters, is that you enjoy doing it and having fun with it.
