In 120 Days

 In all things is a truth, and only a truth will be seen and a lie will fade away. The following is a link to my News Network, free of political control, free for hope, and we are growing in a concept lost...something called ,The Freedom Of Press.....
 Many have emailed me stating this is power-full, a great news network.....but I took all off line for 120 days at the top of the peak of a…

When I get paid, I will be getting "This Machine Pwns Noobs"

Because it is made of AWESOME.  Listened to the whole LP on youtube while packing for my research trip, and danced around my room.  On a side note, getting ready to go to the University of Arkansas to do dental microwear texture analysis on teeth.  Super excited!!!

What High Schoolers Read

In which I respond to an NPR article and booktuber Rincey Reads' comments on what today's high school students are reading and explain why picking what books are read in high school English classes can actually be a complex endeavor.

Point of clarification: while I focus on the fact that there are more classics being taught than just…

In which I apologize

I apologize for my late night sleep deprived ravings last night, all 6 of you who read it. Anyways,

The point I was trying to make is that Game Shops should really try to be a bit more girl-friendly.

Being more female friendly can only benefit the business. More girls might get into games and hobbies if they were made to feel more welcome in the stores, and if when a question…

Happy

I've been a tutor for 3 years and I am going to school to be an English teacher (Linguisitcs Prof. to be exact) and today was my second day working during our summer session. I was prepared to have no students in today, which makes for a very long, dull day when you work alone and have no homework. Instead, four students came in today that needed my help. It was great! I was able to see some of my regulars and meet a few new students! They were all in rather good moods despite the fact that…

Umm... Hi.

Hi.

I'm new here, so... I'm not entirely sure what's going on - so sorry if I make a slightly shaky start. I'm kind of only making a blog post because there's a space for making blog posts. I see there's also a chat box, but I don't know anyone yet and I don't want to be rude by jumping into conversations.



So, yeah, Hi.



I'm Dan. I'm kinda new to nerdfighteria, and I don't know many nerdfighters personally, so I thought the Ning would be a good place to come to…

One of a Kind

All of you are one of a kind so stop trying to fit in because if you do fit in you're not yourself.

The Junos and a monkey

If you know me, you know that I kind of hate Justin Bieber.

Now, before you kill me, let me explain myself. I don't have anything against his music, it's just not my style. I generally don't care for popular music in general, simply because so much of it is autotuned these days, and that's kind of depressing to me. I'll dance to that type of music at parties, but on my own time, it's not my style.

As for Justin Bieber, part of my hatred for him comes from people who live in…

Dutch by birth, American by heart.

I am born and raised Dutch. I speak Dutch, I root for our soccer team and feel proud when an actress like Catrice van Houten stars in Game of Thrones. Being Dutch is a part of my identity.

However, whenever I talk to others about the things I like, they seem to not know what I'm talking about. This is because the things I like and spend my time on are very American-based things. Like TV shows, popular YouTube channels, 9gag even. And because the people I talk to don't know…

UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE CHAPTER ONE : STREAKING ON A GO-KART

Chapter One: Streaking on a Go-Kart

There are few greater “treasures” in the high school world than a detention slip, and on Monday May 5 one was graciously bestowed to Virginia Barnes. Virginia blankly stared at the crisp mustard colored paper that Mr. Venice slapped on her desk. As she began to read its contents he trudged back over to his podium and continued to read…

My torment when it comes to Donna Noble...

I find it horribly depressing in every single way the way that Donna has to go.

For the first time in her life, she was more than "just a temp from Chiswick"  she was the "best temp in Chiswick" finally.  For that split second, she was Donna Noble, savior of worlds whose name would be immortalized in songs and stories for generations to come.  However, just as she realizes her impact on society and how she has always been more important, more intelligent than she thought, that…

How I Learned Japanese.

I am not a native Japanese speaker, so you may be asking how I learned it. When I was little, I was obsess with Pokémon, and I still am to this day! One day while I was at my grandparents house, I saw an ad for "ポケットモンスタープラタプラチナ". I had no idea Japan got video games earlier then we got it in the States. I picked it up, and decided I would teach myself Japanese. As a young teenage boy, it did go so well. I could never remember the hiragana and katakana characters and stroke order. When I…

What I know I know, What I Think I know, and What I Don't Think I Know

Some people think that I am naive for believing that people are good if given a chance. I think that those people are jaded and misunderstand my understanding of humans and their behaviors. It’s not that I think everyone will be good if given the chance, I think that they have the potential to be if someone believes in them and they in turn believe in themselves. I feel sorry for the people that think this is naive because it makes me wonder if they have given up on themselves.

The…

Languages

As a lover of linguistics and etymology, Itry to learn many languages, even if only a few basic phrases, and currently speak English, broken Irish and French, some basic phrases in Spanish and Russian, and I know a handful of words in Hebrew and Chinese (at least enough not to get 'soup' tattooed on my back!).

So I am spending two 'terms' if six weeks each in Frnce to improve my French to near fluency, ad the rest of thee next school year (Sept to May) will be brushing up on Russian in my… Continue

Day 9: Travel/Belgium- Brugge

My mom woke at the time of 5am, then (blessedly) let me sleep until 6. We then hopped onto the train by our hotel to go the the main station. We then had a 5 hour train ride. On this train we sat behind two Australian women, and we all laughed and talked for a bit. We then twiddled our thumbs for the rest of the trip. After that, we made a connection in Köln. Luckily, because we knew the station we were able to find our way around rather easily. In the time between, we grabbed a slice of pizza… Continue
