The Marley Project--need help

What is the Marley Project? It's capitalized, so it must important. The Marley Project was inspired by the Project for Awesome. In 2010, I plan to post a video everyday except for weekends and…Continue

What Kind of Nerdfighter Are You?: Most Likely the Theatre Variety With a Healthy Sampling of Writer

About Me:: I'm made of imagination (and awesome, but that's already a given). I don't like talking about myself because I always draw this blank or run into a wall. In my prouder moments, I think it's because I'm humble or something, but then I notice the paradox and realize that it's just because I like to lie and hide and generally not tell people anything about me because people, with the exception of Nerdfighters and select other groups, scare me. That is all.

Incidentally, this is probably the longest "About Me" I've ever written.

By the way (never believe me when I say "that is all". It's not), I go by Lee most of the time. Hope Lee is not my real name, it is my middle name (Hope) and a nickname my little sister came up with (Lee). I will answer to both and will get mad at neither, but Lee is my usual name and the one a lot of people call me in real life (except for most of my family who use my first name).

Favorite Books, Movies, Music, and more: Ooh...Books...The Montmorency series by Eleanor Updale, Brisingr by CP (but I didn't like the first two and am withholding opinion on the fourth, besides the fact that if you're going to write a trilogy, write a trilogy and if you're going to write a series of four books [name for that, anyone?], come up with a better name than "Cycle", which implies you're supposed to read the first book over again). I was a fan of the Warriors series by Erin Hunter, but then I either got older or she/they got worse at writing (probably both). I only heard about John a month ago and have been too busy catching up on the Vlogbrother videos to actually read any of his books (please don't be mad at me), but am immensely interested in Paper Towns, though am morally against adding a book to the favorites section without having read it. Sorry, John, I'm sure it's awesome. Oh, and I'm immensely fond of Shakespeare.

Music: A wide variety, but I'm in love with acoustic guitars. *melts*

Movies: I can live without most of them.

What's your favorite thing to put on your head?: My brother's lizard, but it escaped. Otherwise, probably books.

If you could do your happy dance with anyone who would it be with?: It's a toss-up between James Marsters and Enver Gjokaj.

When did you start watching the Vlogbrothers?: November, 2009

Haiti and the Marley Project

For those of you who don't know what the Marley Project is; it's one of my resolutions to post a video everyday except weekdays, holidays, and when circumstances forbid me to make a video (like, say, if my tech breaks). I haven't posted any of the Marley Project videos here, but this one I am because I'm betting more people will see it here than on YouTube.

Here's a link to the article mentioned in the video:… Continue

Things to do in 2010

Hello, all. Thought I'd let ya'll know a few of the things I resolved to do this year.

The Marley Project--Posting a video promoting a charity every day (on YouTube, not always here) except for weekends and holidays. If you want to support that, the channel is here: http://www.youtube.com/TheMarleyProject (It's actually there whether or not you want to support it, so you might as well check it out).

New Nerdfighters

Hello, Nerdfighters.

I would like to share with you something that is incredibly sad. There are new Nerdfighters, like myself, who seem very shy about posting anything. Before I get into ways to fix this, I have a few ideas why.

One: Past experiences. As awesome as the Nerdfighters are, sadly Decepticons are not so much. They like people to fit into neat little categories and don't appreciate it when people are different. So great people, nerdy people, are spurned repeatedly and… Continue

Woah! This is Definitely the right place

I officially joined the ranks of Nerdfighteria today. One of the first things that happened was that someone completely random sent me a friend request and then I looked at the chat. They were talking about something...odd. I forgot to write it down, so I can't remember now what it was. Then the chat turned to a story by my next friend on the site about the origin of her username. Then everyone started talking about drugs, smoking, drugs, sports, sexuality, dropping snow into your bedroom and… Continue
