hello, i'm amanda and i'm from canada.

even though i do not like to use capitals i am still a huge english nerd. does that make me a hypocrite? anyway, i am also a band nerd (i play french horn, piano, and percussion).

yep, that's basically it. i love food and reading and all that. especially food.

Hello Amanda, and welcome to the Ning! :D

No, no it does not. You just simply chose not to be confined within language conventions :p

So, how did you discover Nerdfighteria? :)

Anyways, DFTBA!

[Amanda]

thank you, when you put it that way i feel very special. like i'm defying the law of capitals or something like that.

and i started hearing about john's books on tumblr, so i read looking for alaska and loved it, then read paper towns and an abundance of katherines. the funny thing is that i had heard about the vlogbrothers before, but i never made the connection between john green the author and john green the vlogger until earlier this year. i just finished watching all of the brotherhood 2.0 videos and i feel very accomplished c:

DFTBA!

[Danno]

you should.  it is a heck of a project

[Danno]

if it does, it makes me at least as big of one.

[Amanda]

yes! high five for not using capitals!

*virtual high five*

[Danno]

so why don't you like them?

Hi Nerdfighters! This is Dewis reporting in from the Bronx. New to nerdfighting but certainly not new to being nerdy! For instance I lived on the Tardis until I was five... It was my parents boat and it was blue and awesome.

And I am so happy to be pounderstands community that understands that reference! Obviously I love Doctor Who, but really I like anything scifi. For instance, I watched Firefly when it was actually on Fox! I also love Star Trek, Torchwood, Harry Potter, and Highlander. Really I just love anything that makes my imagination go into crazy squid overdrive.

I'm new to the area and thought this would be a great way to meet people that wouldn't make fun of my sonic screwdriver and converse with some awesome people about awesome things.

Hey there Dewis, and welcome to the Ning! :D

So, how were you introduced to Nerdfighteria? :)

As always, DFTBA!

[Danno]

are we talking the anime, the Christopher Lambert movie(s) or the show?

Hi all,

I'm an ESL teacher at the university level, and I was introduced to vlogbrothers (and by extension to nerdfighteria) by my cousin a few years ago and have been an avid watcher. I also love crashcourse and scishow. However, there are few things I enjoy more than reading, writing (mostly short poetry like tanka) and drawing. My interests and inspiration come, for the  most part, from the natural world.

What makes me a nerd? Well, what is a nerd anyway? Beyond the common connotations of nerd that we all think of (which I probably fit) perhaps I am a nerd because I feel affinity with other self defined nerds. :)
