Not Sure if GS Bug or...?

I've been going nuts trying to solve this problem for continuous days now. It's the last thing I want to implement before I go PRO and implement the pro features!
Basically, in my game there is a "powerup" thing that when the actor collides with it, some variables change to allow game benefits (2x coins, 2x exp, etc etc). However there is something very strange.
When I put "After random(5,10) seconds, Change self.position.x and self.position.y to the proper position and move left" it will work fine, but I want this powerup to occur more than once. When I put EVERY random (5,10）seconds... suddenly the powerup will spawn but it will NOT move. It just keeps spawning on the side of the screen (the position has been defined by the aforementioned self.position.x) but it just DOES NOT MOVE! Can anyone think of a way to solve this issue, or some way to get over it so I only have to use "After" and just spawn another one? Destroying --> Spawning things always end up with things auto destroying itself for me.
