Trick replied to Kyle Amati's discussion What instruments to Nerdfighters play?
"I play - in approximate order of competence - piano, classical guitar, violin, electric guitar, and viola. There are a few I've dabbled in but don't usually count, too - recorder, dulcimer, zither, tin whistle, ocarina, harmonica, that…"

Trick replied to Peter Medeiros's discussion Rory--Better Companion Than Amy? in the group Doctor Who Nerdfighters
"That's just it! In some ways I feel like Amy's gone backwards - she was an awesome little kid - whereas Rory has grown from a sort of surplus sidekick into a companion who feels almost like the Doctor's equal (to me, anyway)."

Trick replied to Peter Medeiros's discussion Rory--Better Companion Than Amy? in the group Doctor Who Nerdfighters
"I love Amy - I really do - but Rory has evolved into far more than the useless boyfriend I thought him to be at first, and he is a great companion now. 'Better' is hard to define but it sometimes feels like he does more than Amy."

Trick replied to Brittany's discussion Where is your favorite place to read? in the group Nerdfighters Who Like Talking About Books
"I rather like being up a tree, myself, because the odd looks I get make me laugh - and yes, I feel fantastically poetic. I love reading outdoors in the summer but in the winter nothing beats being curled up by the fire or in bed with a good book."

Trick replied to Lizabet-B's discussion What So-Called Classics are Actually Worth Reading?
"I'll admit straight off that I love most classics. There are very few books I've read that I haven't enjoyed or got anything out of at all. The one classic I really couldn't get into was Grapes of Wrath... I started it, and now…"

Trick replied to Lizabet-B's discussion What So-Called Classics are Actually Worth Reading?
"Seconding this! I love books that make me think, but I liked 'Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?' because it wasn't just a book about an issue, it was exciting and had a great plot as well as being thought-provoking."

"With regard to ancient classics, I prefer Ovid to Virgil - not so much his Metamorphoses but his love poetry. He's a pretty funny guy."

Trick replied to Peter Medeiros's discussion Long Running Series / Book Addiction

Profile Information

What Kind of Nerdfighter Are You?
Literature, Music, Art, Maths, Eco-freak?
About Me:
I love reading (though that goes without saying), but I'm quite picky; I can't stand the Twilight books, and I'm always on the lookout for grammar, spelling and punctuation errors, because I'm pernickety like that! I try to write, rather unsuccessfully, and I like music of all kinds. I love films, although I always come out at the end in a kind of dream state. Either that or heart-breakingly miserable because it's over. I don't watch TV much because of the overwhelmingly rubbish fare for the most part; however, I do like DVDs (Blackadder, Black Books, etc.) and I'm addicted to Radio 4, because I'm a cool teenager like that.
Favorite Books, Movies, Music, and more
Many... let me think.
Discworld, Good Omens, Neverwhere (every time I read it, I want to be part of it all), Catch-22, Looking for Alaska, Sophie's World, Mansfield Park, His Dark Materials, The Moving Toyshop, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, Poppy Shakespeare, The Lives of Christopher Chant, The Liar, Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell, Feeling Sorry For Celia, Rebecca, The Waves (though I had to read it in short bursts so my head didn't explode, I loved it), The Tempest (can I count that as a book? It's my favourite Shakespeare play, anyways), To Kill A Mockingbird, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Beloved, The Colour Purple, The Catcher in the Rye, Cut, Skin, A Long Way Down, High Fidelity, About a Boy, anything by Roald Dahl (especially his creepy stories), Margaret Mahy's books in general, and Aidan Chambers' Dance sequence.
What's your favorite thing to put on your head?
A hat?
If you could do your happy dance with anyone who would it be with?
Stephen Fry
When did you start watching the Vlogbrothers?
2009

Maths will be the death of me.

Why did I not start my C2 revision in the holidays? Why did I think four evenings and a morning would be sufficient time to cover six chapters?
Actually, I suppose the real question is "Will I ever make this mistake again?" to which the answer is, of course, a resounding "Hell no".

Marauder's Map

Walking through the library the other day, I was looking for a friend. There was a map of the library on the wall... and I stopped to look for a dot with my friend's name. And it's years since I read the books.

Twilight

But that's not what my dad calls it. Henceforth I shall also be referring to it as Twiglet.
I love my family.

GSA

I just had to write a small thingamajig about something that happened in school today that I'm both excited and nervous about. The basic idea is that a group of us start up a Gay-Straight Alliance group in our school, by taking the idea first to the Learning Mentor and then onto senior staff. We all feel it's needed; though the school has an anti-bullying policy, it doesn't include anything specific about homophobia, and it is a problem to some extent in school. For example, whilst one class… Continue

I've just seen your comment about The Bride's Farewell. It's not a bad book, and Rosoff writes really beautifully, so I think it is still worth reading but it isn't in any way on the same level as How I Live Now which blew me away.

I'm just sharing the love of the Moomins

or as they call them in their native land Muumi. I was there, and there was many Moonin memorbeilia to collect, and so I did, and there was much rejoycing...

...however I gave it all to my girlfriend, and there was more rejoycing...

...I'm not sure where I'm going with this...
