hi! i finally made time to sign up as a nerdfighter in nerdfighteria, i'm new as you can see, i just started watching the vlogbrothers not long ago, what encouraged me to do so is my favorite book i have ever read, which is "the fault in out stars" by John Green, i started researching about the author and i found out that he had a vlog account and i started watching them, i just started to join this community and i'm currently still in the progress of figuring things out, so if this isn't a…

Okay... I've been putting this off for long enough. Here is a full and complete list of my new years resolutions, and I solemnly swear to try really hard to do all of them.

1. Watch ALL of the videos! Including, if not especially, crash course because it's very awesome
2. Eat less bad food and do more kickboxing and cycling and stuff…

Oh my kingdom for an original idea!

Yikes, butchered Shakespeare aside (as far aside as humanly possible) New Year's is one of those fabulous times of year when we are suddenly forced to reflect on ourselves, our past, our current relationships and achievements and our goals for the coming year. 

But it is important. Honestly our society probably lacks a little more reflection. I mean more than just, "wow I should really get my ass to the gym this year" (though…

• Write a character analysis on the two most misunderstood characters in a book FOR FUN!
• Learn Arabic via YouTube versus any other format.
• Watch every single vlogbrothers video in…

So in addition to my other New Year resolution i decided i would also write a blog once a week for at least 3 months and then see if i continue after that. I havent decided what the blogs will be about probably random nonsense and just general randomness. But i will also be doing like Kayley from fiveawesomegirls on youtube started and list why my days are awesome for that week. So i'll start with that.

Jan. 1. Got to spend time with my cousins from indiana.

Jan. 2.…

So, I realized after my blog on Sunday/Saturday that I never posted my New Year's Resolutions. The reason for this is simple. I didn't have any. But no I do!

Well, I have one, anyway. I have decided to make my way for the top 100 book list on the BBC (here's a link, if you're curious: http://www.bbc.co.uk/arts/bigread/top100.shtml) Now, it is true that this is list is from 2003, but I'm still following it. So, I am…

I've been challenged by a friend, whom I met through the liveshow this week, to make a vlog for every day this month.

I made the first yesterday, published it about 20 minutes late, but it's probably the best vlog I've ever made to…

So yeah.

It's 2011. Happy New Year, nerdfighters!

I don't feel older or newer or anything. I just feel like I have to go back to school on Monday and that's not alright with me. I don't wanna go to school! Plus I have this big chemistry assignment to finish tomorrow because I neglected to do so over break.

But, anyways, here are some of my new year's resolutions:

Get at least a 4 on my AP chem test (and, you know, understand…

I haven't written a blog post in a while, so I thought I might as well help close out the year here in Nerdfighteria!  

We've been through a lot this year, and even though I only joined Nerdfighters at the beginning of 2010, I was still here to experience a lot of stuff.  We had a lot of successful projects, and I'd say my favorite moment of the whole year was the John Green Blogtv for the HPA where we totally owned the Chase Community Giving competition, and the resulting…

I am VERY excited for the new year coming! Two friends I made through YouTube and I are going to make a collab channel about our goal to read 50 books in 2011! (…

I have a bunch of new library books to read, almost enough to put me over the edge of fifty. What should I do if it go over fifty? Keep counting, set a new goal?

New Total:…
