I finally made the jump to get a NerdFighters. I don't knwo what I was waiting for :3

Fell free to add me as a friend, always ready to have a good chat about stuuf, especially doctor who and science. (:

Au Revoir! [I am not french by the way, the french are cool.]

I was watching some videos on youtube the other day when I came across this comment that said "America should be nuked".

What's so bad about us?

Yeah, our government sucks. Yeah, we have really stupid people. Yeah, we have attacked other countries(but only because they attacked us or our allys first! Not including the Korean War. That was stupid).

Every country has stupid people, a lot of countries have(argueably) stupid government, and every country attacks…

So, I've been watching Brotherhood 2.0 since forever but have never joined... I feel horrible. 

So I now have joined.

Hello everyone :D Hi John and Hank, you guys are awesome.

Hi, my name is Leah and I am a senior girl scout. I have been in girl scouts for nearly ten years and I can safely say that girl scouts is my second family. Girl Scout Cookie season is again upon us. I would like to reach out to all Nerdfighters to encourage you to buy a box when you see girls selling in front of stores or door to door. Girl Scouts is one of the few groups which focus on kids but also are in full support of LGBT rights. LGBT parents are allowed…

A week ago today, I found myself in one of my favorite bookstores of all time,Anderson’s Bookshop in Naperville, IL, for the first stop of the Breathless Readstour featuring Marie Lu (Legend), Beth Revis (Across the Universe), Jessica…

I'll be honest with you, I don't really know how to write a blog. Yes, I have a tumblr, and I do write a bit from time to time, but I usually just reblog funny pictures and fanfic and interesting things...!

I will try to be interesting and I will try to write often, and about cool things!!

   I can't think of anything at the moment, but I assure you, I will ^_~

to quote Sherlock Holmes.... laterz!

It's been a while! One month to be exact.

But now I'm back, to share with you the two books I've read during my absence.

The Great Gatsby - F. Scott Fitzgerald

Finished Reading: February 10th

Now I'm going to be totally honest and say…

After recently finding out that my second short story "Fire" was going to be published in my school's literary journal, I was asked to write a 50 word bio to be included with the story.  Having complete faith in my fiction, but none in my ability to talk about myself in the third person, I decided to get some help. 

You. 

That's right, you have the chance to decide just how I am going to be perceived by a group of hundreds...OK, more like a hundred people, maybe, who read the…

Hi.

I'm really excited to be part of this. REALLY excited. I haven't been watching Hank and John for very long, but I love this entire... culture? It's really quite fantastic. My friends in the year below me are writing arguemntative essays and I remember one about the value of smart people in society. That's what this reminds me of. Like, I'm sure the decepticons are great at whatever it is they do, but having the brains rocks and it seems like only the people who have them…

As of Today (today is capitilized because I felt like it), I need to simplify my life. The easy way to do this is go get rid of a bunch of extra-curriculars. Drop out of something, quit something else, and just make my life that much easier. But it's much more difficult than that, because I was raised with the "You do not quit anything ever" attitude that makes my parents' lives (as well as my own) so busy and barely manageable. We all tend to put more things on our plate of life until…

Right now (in this hour, in this minute, in this second) I am procrastinating. I am rather good at this- I've been doing it for hours! I have some stupid Africa physical map that's due tomorrow and I haven't even started it. It's 7:43 pm. I'm kinda screwed. But you know, I'm still gonna procrastinate. I just don't want to do my work!

I…

Sometimes an obsessive one.  I also have this take-charge attitude.  I have a really hard time taking instructions from people that I'm on a peer level with.  I can listen to my boss just fine, but if someone on the same level or below me tries to tell me what to do (especially if I feel like I'm being told I'm an idiot because I'm a girl and I don't necessarily do things the easy way), I get really upset.  I take things personally.  Especially when plans don't go my way.  If I have the…

Hello there reader, my name is Ryan Murphy and I just wanted to make some points as to why vlogging is an amazing thing to be doing these days. I've had a YouTube account for almost five years now, but it wasn't until a year ago on the 20th of February that I actually started vlogging. I think it does take a lot to get going in the first place, but it's so worth starting. So, what of it..? Well, I don't think I'll stop vlogging anytime soon! It has been one of the most fun, rewarding…

If you'd like to keep a couple old friends atop the bestseller list, you can pick up The Fault in Our Stars and/or Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children at your local bookstore or from amazon. TFiOS: http://dft.ba/-tfios Miss Peregrine: http://amzn.to/xuSvdA

I've just finished this book, and I'm a bit disappointed. The book really entartained me overall, but the ending was not as impacting as I…

Okay, so my friend who I borrowed these books from warned me that they would probably destroy me, and after I read the first one I was like, well, it was amazing, and it made me cry a lot and it was stressful and stuff, but it didn't destroy me.  I was actually thinking wow, I'm going to survive this.

But then this book happened.

And how wrong I was.

The second book is amazing, don't get me wrong.  Perhaps more amazing than the first one,…
