[Sirja Ellen (Shaluna)]

Hello all!

I joined Nerdfighters in November, but never really got into talking here. I'm a little shy on webforums (but weirdly, not IRL), but I hope I can get active. In October I watched my first vlogbrother video (31 jokes for nerds), but before that I took the pledge to read it first (and had no idea what Nerdfighteria is, I was really curious about that but forgot to find out more). Now I've watched 122 latest videos in the last week and I also listened Paper Towns in few days (I LOVED IT!). And I found that I can order from Amazon with Visa Electron (I ordered TFioS audiobook) and that I can order Looking for Alaska from our local bookstore.

Then stuff about me! My name is Sirja, though I'm online I'm mostly known as Shaluna. I'm 26 years old and live in Finland. I'm just about to get married (/register our partnership) and I'm pretty exited about that. Besides my girlfriend I like clothes, reading, watching television, papercrafting and fangirling. I'm a fan of/I like many great things, like Harry Potter, Tori Amos, South Park, Doctor Who, Criminal Minds, Mean Girls, Scrubs, The Big Bang Theory, How I Met Your Mother and Hunger Games to name a few. Besides fangirling and other hobbies my days consist of sleeping, eating and sometimes going to therapy. For the last 3 years I've been on disability pension, but I do have some hopes for the future (I'd love to finish highschool for adults and go to study comparative religion or theology).

So that's me. I hope to get some likeminded friends from here! :)

[Daniel Warren Palmer]

Hey there everyone. I'm Daniel and I live in England. I was introduced to nerdfighting through tumblr, where I found a gif of Hank ranting about pubs in Wales, which I thought was hilarious. I followed a link to the video and then went back to watch all of John and Hank's videos.

My obsession with languages and history makes me a nerd. =D

[Danno]

welcome to the ning Daniel!  language is awesome...are there any in particular that you study?

[Britta]

Yay, this is nice. An introduction thingamabob.

[Amanda]

Hi! I'm Amanda and I am a new nerdfighter!  I just finished watching all of brotherhood 2.0, so all the 2007 videos!  I found out about the nerdfighters from tumblr, when I saw postings about The Fault in our Stars which I have now read, along with An Abundance of Katherines, Paper Towns, and Looking for Alaska.  I am currently reading Will Grayson, Will Grayson. (I am almost done!)  As you can see I really like exclamation marks!!

[Danno]

welcome Amanda and power to you for all of your watching and reading.  you know you don't have to, to be a Nerdfighter though, right?

[Sher A Phillips]

Heya. I'm new and from Texas. :) I got appointed to NerdFighters from a fellow Doctor Who fan so I'm interested to meet people on this website who are also fans. I like watching the Vlog videos, they really make me giggle.

I like other TV series, like Supernatural, and Buffy the Vampire slayer. I adore books, comics, writing, and drawing. If anyone would like a link to my Tumblr or Deviantart account feel free to ask. 

I'm pretty shy, so it would be nice to hear from some people. I'd really like to get to know some other fans of nerdy things. :)

[Danno]

welcome to the ning fellow whovian etc, Nerdfighter!  have you seen the group yet?

[Sher A Phillips]

The actual Doctor Who group? No, I don't think so

[Danno]

well you should check out the groups in general (imo)  but http://nerdfighters.ning.com/group/doctorwhonerdfighters has fantastically jokes discussions from our fellow fans... who are, of course, awesome in a number of other ways as well.

It's amazing how many new/newly realized nerdfighters there are everyday! It gives me hope for the future of humanity :) DFTBA

Hi. My name's March, as in, the month. I'm from the Philippines and I'm a new nerdfighter. :)

I started watching vlogbrothers December of last year, although I can't remember why. My friend had lent me Paper Towns. I fell in love with it and wanted to read more of John Green's books. So I Googled him, found myself watching vlogbrothers, and felt that being a nerdfighter would be awesome. And that's about it.

I love to write, but I'm usually just good at constructing first paragraphs.

My fondness for Math makes me a nerd, although I'm not super good at it or something. I just like solving. And numbers.
