How to Create Not-So-Artificial Gravity (Theory)

Space is awesome. Space is big (no edge). And Space is full of endless possibilities. However, space isn't with it's drawbacks, especially when considering a human in space. From high energy radiation, to bone and muscle degeneration, and the obvious lack of air, space is dangerous.

But us humans don't give up in the face of dangerous situations. We thrive on them, it's what makes us progress in both understanding and knowledge. And so, we come up with solutions to the problems that…

How To Make Homemade Pizza From Layers!



The amazement of NASA's involvement to change the world never fails to amuse me. Today (among other new gadgets and gizmos they tinker with) they are researching the potential of the new 3-D printing…

My Discovery

This is my first ever blog post... Why am I nervous about it?

Of course, it will be about John and Hank Green.

It was September of my junior year of high school (also known as this one) when I was introduced to John Green's work by my AP English teacher. Great lady. Anyhow. She told us about a book she was reading called The Fault in Our Stars, and also about how awesome it was, and my best friend, Nikki, and I just looked at each other and nodded.

I, being a good friend,…

My Very First Blog Post!!

Okay, so I am new here on the Nerdfighter scene, but am a long-time nerd. I am really excited about starting this blog which I think I am going to mostly make about nerdy things and my life.  So basically, very similar to a lot of blogs. I am, however, a secret nerd.  I am obviously I am in no way ashamed to be a nerd, but I have a lot of friends who have never even heard of the shows or books I read.  I think its absolutely okay because I know they love me for who I am either way but it…

The position of Fem-nerd, or Femineity in nerd culture

Since i was a little girl i have watched and grown up with star trek, my little brother and i learnt all the words to the beginning sequence, my best friend was even named after one of the characters, in other words i was a massive nerd. In my high school years I was defiantly an outcast, but at the age of 14 i discovered Harajuku fashion and anime, these were my new loves, i spent hours looking at fashion shows and reading blogs about Harajuku.

Appreciation post

I'd like to just take a moment to appreciate the absolute awesomeness of the Spartan women. In a world and time completely dominated by men, these women were strong and rightful. Especially Queen Gorgo, daughter of King Cleomenes I, wife of King Leonidas I and mother of King Pleistarchus. As a young girl she advised her father to resist a bribe and under the war between Persia and Greece she helped decode a warning that the Persians were about to invade Greece. When asked by an Attican woman…

Death in the family.

This is Mum-ra the guinea pig.  Sadly he passed away on 5/21/13, rather suddenly and unexpectedly.

Mum-ra is survived by his cage mate Booh and his friend Meatloaf, both guinea pigs.



We got Mum-ra two years ago.  We rescued him from a family who no longer cared for him.  At first he was stand-offish and…

I can't be the only one.

I get physically ill when I think of the boy who once loved me. The boy I used to claim as 'My Boy'. Though I've moved on and I should be over it, I get this queasy feeling in the back of my throat. The absence of him will never truly be filled, a scar will always be there. I miss him I guess. Like so many other things I thought were long lasting, he was a quickly fleeting shine in my life. I'm sure there will be plenty of other boys, there is one now, but I feel like with each new love and… Continue

Procrastination

I sit here thinking. And while I think, I ponder to all of the things that I have to do: varying from my upcoming finals and the vast majority of assignments and projects my superiors have decided to only recently hand out. And as I think about that, I decide to hop on the computer to scroll through the Nerdfighteria website. Procrastinating. 

Procrastination is something that I tend to do quite frequently, and I'm still looking for a cure. In the past, I used to come home and…

Can anyone see the bald girl? Please comment /:

The candied coated over sugared phrases melted and seeped through the phone line congratulating me on my lymph nodes being 85% smaller, I couldn't help but want to be the cynical, humorous, bitch that I've know become. They were happy that I'm not going to die, at least they thought so. Most people who know me barely graze the surface of my utterly complex personality and way of being. They pick and choose the qualities of my top layer they find most appealing and then decide if I'm worthy to… Continue

I miss the way nerdfighteria used to be

I love nerdfighteria to death. I want to start with that so know one murders me after reading this blog post. 

I have social anxiety, I like to sit by my self at lunch and listen to my ipod, and I always feel like people are talking behind my back. Know one understands this about me and even though I have plenty of people I could call my friends they're never quite there for me. I have the luxury of saying that I have never been bullied, however I seem to be a drama…
