Hi! Remember me? I'm Senior Executive Ningmaster Tom. I'm supposed to be running this site. :D

In reality, I've been missing in action for a long time. I have hardly done anything ning-related in months, apart from occasionally banning a spammer, or responding to an e-mail. (And changing the banner. :þ)

But I should've been doing so. much. more. :|

(Including, but not limited to, essential tasks like…

Hi there fellow nerdfighter.

Yup, fellow, because I've finally gotten around to making an account! :D

I know you don't have to have an account to be a nerdfighter, but still, it feels more 'real'.

I'm currently overwhelemd by the sheer awesomeness. *o*

I've been watching the vlogbrothers since the start of 2010, and been a member of nerdfighteria since the middle of the same year.

I am from Norway, and with my only 14 years, my…

As the title of the Blog suggests, this is in fact, about  prayer! It's been on my mind for a fair wee bit and I'd figure one way to get it outt'a me system would be to write  typed it all out. Heck, what could go wrong? ~People could think that you don't respect one of their most priced beliefs~ Quiet contradicting voice within my head! ~ You know I'm right ~.  God damn it..

Anywho! Moving on to the subject…

I figured this was a great  place for me to be. I've been a nerdfighter for a few years now but I've never made anything like this because I really don't know how to work the internet very well ^^; 

I'm kinda shy, but maybe I'll get over it! It tends to dissipate if I'm around people I like, and what's not to like about nerdfighteria?? 

In which John witnesses his parents' goats mating, including all of the weird foreplay that precedes goat sex, like the part where the male goat urinates on his own beard and then rubs it all over the female goat, and then the part where the goat humps in all the wrong places. A thoughts from places only with more goat intercourse than usual.

Our mom will be making…

It is always a weird feeling when starting something like a blog, or a profession in which the assumption is I have something to say worth hearing.  Before becoming a pastor, I tried to become an engineer, which failed fairly miserably due to my inability to become sufficiently excited about math (unlike my classmates who would occasionally salivate at the mere mention of a kinematic equation).  I then made the obvious transition into stand-up comedy.  That was shorter lived than my…

I... I am standing here

Waiting for the world to start over.

And I have seen the stars appear

And shift into a consciousness

Far greater than my own.

And now, I find, out in the distance,

A blinking green light

Showing me the way back home.

I was lost, but now I'm here.

And I have turned myself around,

And now I see…

Hi!

So I'm kinda new to this 'Nerdfighter-site-thingmabob', so please forgive me if my Blog Post may appear to be, well, crap.

I love the site, it looks really cool and I feel like I'm in the right place. (;

Thanks for readi-

Oh, it seems to be rather short this 'post'. I'll tell you about me.

My name is Indigo (or CosmicLatteGirl), I like to write songs and write novels. I play a purple ukulele which has the famous…

Listen, Jena, I’ve really been enjoying the Nook I got for Christmas (thanks, Mam and Dad). Three dollars and five minutes got all Mark Twain’s books onto this little eReader. I love our apartment full of actual books, though, so I thought I should figure out whether or not eReaders are going to ruin books. Also I photographed my newly organized library. You married into this.

Maybe the internet crippled the music industry,…

  I guess this should start with a 'hello' so who am I to stand in the way of cliches?



HELLO!

 Ahem, now that we've got that out of the way..

    My blog posts here are going to mainly consist of (relatively spoiler free) Tv show/movie/book recaps, opinions, and other things there involved. Maybe I'll even be nice and post some tidbits from the book I'm currently writing on here for you. ;)

  So without further ado I give you.. The…

Goodbye to one of my grandmothers, Maria J. Peralejas, fondly called "Lola Mary" by friends and families. she died  at 1:30pm while eating lunch. she took her last breath. she would have been 86 on november 26. she had alzheimer's disease for the last five years and lost a lot of weight because she barely ate. despite all the love and attention, she left us. her last spoken words to me were: "mauuna na ako"(i 'll go ahead) "aalis na ako"(i'll be going)  and "masaya."(happy). i wanna believe…

Hi Nerdfighteria. In 2010, I moved to Berlin with my family, and as a project to chronicle my time there, I started a blog. Because I'm not very good at writing about myself and doing so consistently, it turned into a site to talk about things I love: books, movies, music, drawings, and television. Having moved back to Berlin, my site has evolved, and I would love it if some awesome people took a look at it and gave me some feedback. …

Wow, when I stumbled upon John and Hank's videos three weeks ago (I kid you not I watched an entire years worth in three weeks) I had no idea the impact they would make on my life. But they did. It's like just as I was getting cynical and jaded BAAMM optimism returns. Which I suppose was something John was talking about a lot during 2007. 

I mean it wasn't even that all the problems of the world got less extreme so much as my attitude to them change. In November I was all, I…

This post isn't going to have much content, and I really doubt that they'll see it, but I feel that I really need to thank John and Hank for what they've done for me recently without having any idea of the amazing help that they've been. Recently I have had several very hard times, tough transitions, losing friends, broken promises, just several things that have fallen really heavily on my shoulders and I haven't really known how to get myself out of the funks that these events leave me in.…

Hello fellow Nerdfighters!!!

I have just made what i think is the video i am most proud of!  I would love you to see it and if you like it and laugh to send it to your friends too!  thank you for your support and above all ENJOY!  DFTBA

As seen in my previous who-knows-how-many-posts, I haven’t had the best year in the world, but, here’s to a better 2012.

I’m getting married. I get to see numerous people I haven’t in years. I might even get to go on a Vacation. O.O My resolution this year is to simply try harder.…
