Somewhere in my Minecraft PE world, I wanted to build another such structure that is not yet implemented in MCPE. One small building has a bunch of books in it with some open space in the center. Can you guess what I was trying to build? Right! A room for Enchanting! I actually wanted to make an underground floor or some kind of hidden area where you could do some enchanting if you were fortunate enough to find it. Also, I wanted to make a hidden space so you could try to get the best possible enchantment. You all may be familiar with this feeling if you've played certain RPGs or something- you find some sort of hidden zone that features an awesome area for where you could get some crazy powerups or some very powerful items. That's what I was trying to create.
Just because MCPE doesn't have certain features implemented doesn't mean you still can't have fun making certain structures for them. I am even thinking of making a horse stable for if MCPE gets horses. Speaking of animals, I am pretty impressed with the various passive animal mobs in Minecraft. I saw two videos on the ocelot. One was a cute and funny video while another was simply a look at the Snapshot that included ocelots. I love cats and horses, so I was most certainly pleased to see these animals among the passive mobs. I would probably hate to try to breed an ocelot if I were playing Minecraft, though. It would be a fussbudget to try to tame an ocelot without scaring the daylights out of one. What is cute is that mating ocelots will come along with kittens. Ocelots and kittens even follow you around once tamed. Always cute. I think I even found out Creepers don't like ocelots or that they don't attack Creepers. Something like that...
Besides that, I learned about using those trapdoors. Some of the businesses (such as inns) in my Minecraft world have counters, but blocked off with fence gates rather than trapdoors. I'll replace some of those fence gates at businesses with trapdoors.

Minecraft Pocket Edition recently kept crashing when I tried to open it. Everything's fine now because I uninstalled MCPE and reinstalled it. Haven't yet done anything besides that. As I saw a video about beacons in Minecraft, it got me to wonder about modifying my current MCPE world a bit. So with the tops of various shrines I've created, I modified them so that they could support beacon blocks. There are no beacons in the current MCPE Alpha 0.7.2.
If I was able to get PC Minecraft up and running, I don't know if I would try to keep my Minecraft Pocket Edition world, maybe find a way to *copy-and-paste" my Minecraft PE world into a larger world (if that is even possible), or just try to start anew with a new map. I am now starting to realize I can only do so much with the space allowed in MCPE. Part of life is about making the most of what you have. Same applies with Minecraft. I've taken the MCPE world and made several small villages as well as certain unique structures. I made a few small churches as a high church (not a cathedral). I turned one large inn into a grand hotel. There is a large area I set off with high wooden fences as a battle zone (like a cage wrestlers or MMA fighters would fight in). I made all kinds of structures featuring things not implemented into MCPE. Why? To have fun. To enjoy Minecraft. I can always do a whole lot more to my current world, but I'm happy with what I've done so far in Creative Mode since buying Minecraft PE on Google Play.

Not the actual launcher itself, but after I click the launcher it opens up but there's this green progress bar at the bottom that won't let me log in until it's completed, and it takes like 20 seconds to do so. I thought this was a first time only thing but it's done it everytime I've clicked it.The new launcher takes 5-6 seconds to load up for me... (and this on a laptop which isn't that fast)
Not really a big deal, though.

I've never seen such thing... ehm...Not the actual launcher itself, but after I click the launcher it opens up but there's this green progress bar at the bottom that won't let me log in until it's completed, and it takes like 20 seconds to do so.

I can click on "Play" as soon as the launcher started. It might be your connection.

Same thing happened to me the other day. It's just getting the latest update.
Nothing to worry about
👍edit - Just noticed "everytime". That shouldn't be happening. If you can click on the tabs in the launcher an see if anything is happening on them while the progress bar is doing its thing next time you start it. It shouldn't be doing that everytime.

I saw a very interesting video last night on Minecraft. Who says you can't learn anything on YouTube? I saw "How Big is Minecraft?" with some good material on how large the Minecraft world is. That would be this fine video below:
I talked about the Far Lands thing in a past post. However, this is really fascinating to know just how massive Minecraft is based on the content of the video above. In no way do I want to challenge the limits of usable Minecraft space!
