So What's your major? pre- recruitment

It's recruitment season. This is the time of year where all the women you meet are pnms (potential new members). This is the first time that I'm experiencing recruitment on the other side and let me tell you I'm just as nervous as when I went through it. I'm still thinking all the same things: Will they like me? How will I know? Will they choose us? What will we talk about? I hope they like me!!!  I know that they are all hearing the same questions but I still ask 'hey whats your major?… Continue

Holy Puppy Sized Elephants!

HPSE! (Holy Puppy Sized Elephants)

It's time for my awkward first blog post! I'm starting out like everyone else. With words from my brain, youtube, and my hate for world suck.

 

Let's see here. On the first day of school (which was two weeks ago) my teacher asked us if we could have any animal what would it be. Of course I said a puppy sized elephant. Then the entire time during class, all of the kids around me were arguing if it was real or not.

 

That…

School, summer

Six more days of summer, and then school starts! YAY! i feel like this is the most excited i have ever been for school, but that could be because i haven't really done anything fun this summer.  I have watched all of the Doctor Who series, and the new "Let's Kill Hitler" was pretty good.  It gave me a good laugh, and distracted me from all the rubbish going on around me(e.g.Hurricane Irene).  I have been trying to save up for a nintendo 3ds, to get the new zelda game that comes out soon, but…

my sister, nerdfighteria, and world suck

So, my sister is 10 years younger than me, and she is also the one that introduced me to Hank and John's videos in the first place. Well I started by watching 31 jokes for nerds and then moved on to the 20 must see vlogbrothers videos and I was hooked. Well, I've gotten so hooked that I am watching a marathon of old brotherhood 2.0 videos (since I just started watching this year). The one year anniversary presents to my boyfriend and I are mystery shirts from DFTBA.com and he surprised me…

30 day challenge Thing.

As I am new to nerdfighters, so I'm going to do this 30 day thing but in one blog post. If that makes sense? If it does then Great if it doesn't then Sucks to be you. 

Day 1: Your current relationship, if single discuss how single life is:

I am a single Nerd. Which is really depressing at times and then I remember that sometimes Being in a relationsip With a guy I couldn't trust was shit, so I would say I miss it but then Again , I don't. 



Day 2: Where you'd like to be in…

Ninging, apparently.

After being exposed to a few choice VlogBrothers videos in the past year (31 Jokes for Nerds, the whole Gussie Horsey Manlove Brown thing), I decided to launch into the Herculean task of watching all 870 VlogBros videos. I'm currently in May of 2009 (a bit over halfway, I believe [in terms of videos, not time]), but I was so curious about this Ning business I've heard so much about that I decided to take a crack at it. Still poking around trying to figure out exactly what you're supposed to…

Self Study

My professor is late so my classmates chose to have fun by testing eachother and practing our sight singing and melodic dictation. It's inspiring to see how much they care about their education.


Except for the half of us who are studying for another class. But at least we're not ditching class to get drunk. :D


I want some pancakes with strawberry and nutella.

Lonely :(

Are there any Nerdfighters out there in Somerville? Or near Somerville? Or any place where it's comprehensible to get to Somerville easily? I'm just a lonely lone Nerdfighter looking for a Nerdfighter gathering!

 

DFTBA,

French the llama!

   Is it only me who finds the first blog post incredibly awkward? I don't know you guys that well yet... so I guess I'll just base this on the assumption that you're all nice people. I hope you are. Um, I think I'll sing a song about quarks now.

 

A quark is a fundamental constituent of matter

Observed in nineteen…

amber

Amber laid there in snow. No longer feeling the cold. She was numb, she was tired. Tired of the screaming, the pain, her mother's tears as she tried to get what she wanted. Her father's angry words at the world and life itself. Her brother’s unexpected death. Her sisters pregnancy. The drugs didn’t help the alcohol didn’t work. The pain and anguish were not being numbed so easily any more. Amber could not live that way, they would kill her slowly. Her family that word was bitter in her mouth.… Continue

To make cupcakes or not to make cupcakes-- a soliloquy

This is just something I made one day while contemplating whether or not to make cupcakes =)





To make cupcakes, or not to make cupcakes--that is the question:

Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer

The slings and arrows of outrageous hunger

Or to take arms against a sea of aches

And by opposing end them. To cook, to eat--

No more pain--and by cooking to say we end

The stomachache, and the…

Pennies and Annunciation

First, I would like to second John's rant against pennies. He gave the more practical and economic reason for ditching them, but I give you another side. They are useless. Most people don't even bother with them unless they have to in order to make exact change or put them in a bank when they get too numerous on the bedside table or wherever. Also, some people just walk away without change (or even their receipts) when it is only a penny. Another thing, they continually screw me over at work…
