What Kind of Nerdfighter Are You?
I'm a Language/English/Music/Random Question/Useless Facts Nerd :)
About Me:
I go to boarding school, and I'm going to spend a school year in Italy this coming year, which of course I am ecstatically excited about. I read a ton, and I hang out on the internet probably more than I should.. I love rockclimbing, but I don't do it very often. Ditto with backpacking. I ride horses a lot, during the school year for the most part, and some of my friends and I drive a horse-drawn carriage around on occasion (I did it as a school sport for a season and totally loved it--we have two Percheron draft horses). Languages and linguistics are awesome; I speak pretty good Spanish--although I've lost my fluency in the last year, which is annoying--my French is okay, and I'm going to start taking Latin, Ancient Greek and Italian :). I also sing all the time; I'm a high soprano, and singing is my passion, you could say. Love it love it.

I never have any idea what to say in About Me's. The whole idea seems kind of self-selling to me... and there's not much of a chance anyone could really get to know me through reading anything I could tell you about myself, so I suppose I'll stop now.
Favorite Books, Movies, Music, and more
Every book Jane Austen has written, The Power of One, 1984, East of Eden, What is the What, Gone With the Wind, The Book Thief, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (all of them), the Ender series, the His Dark Materials series, Harry Potter, The Chronicles of Narnia, The Princess Bride, The Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings series... the list goes on to infinity, pretty much :)
What's your favorite thing to put on your head?
stacks of books and glass water jugs
If you could do your happy dance with anyone who would it be with?
John Lennon, hands down.
When did you start watching the Vlogbrothers?
November

I'm so glad you're having a great time and that you got a good host family to stay with. It sounds amazing! Feasting on Italian goodies and getting lost in Rome should be lots of fun. I shall enjoy your adventures vicariously. :D

Please let me know how Italy is going. I'm so jealous! Hope you're having a glorious time and are able to get around easily with your fluent opera quotes and third person discussions.

I'm a jumper. Right now, I'm doing the Child/Adults, and hopefully going to the finals in upstate New York.

...Not a terribly flattering picture. I fail at camera usage.
