What Kind of Nerdfighter Are You?: History/Music/TV

About Me:: I'm a college student in Michigan working towards a degree in secondary education.

What's your favorite thing to put on your head?: My nerdfighting puppy, though she doesn't stay on long.

I just thought that I'd mention that I finally got around to reading The Girls.
You were totally right about the style, and how they really do become very real. At times I did have to remind myself that this was fiction - it was so well written.
I would love any recommendations you have because The Girls was totally awesome, in fact I will probably get some ideas from your vlog on Friday!
See you then

Of Spanish origin ("día del orgullo friki" in Spain), it is celebrated nowadays among Spanish frikis (an equivalent of Geeks and Nerds).[1]

This day is celebrated on May 25 since 2006, celebrating the premiere of the first Star Wars movie in 1977."

if you ever come accross the news photo of that day, my husband and his sister are visible in the line.
