For what I am I blame my mother. Though, I would hesitate to call my mom a nerd she certainly read a lot of science fiction and really loved Quantum Leap. Naturally as a child I emulated her and so it seems I was doomed from an early age to be a nerd, even more so than my mom. As we all know girls in the nerd kingdom, though a growing population, are still considered rare, making life there a bit more interesting in those circles for a lady. There are those who think you are cooler than other girls, those who find you stranger than your male counterparts and those who think too much of you. Though some may think we are hard to find, we are out there and our opinions on nerd life should be heard.
I want to join forces with the nerd girls already talking about their hobby. I want to explore what it means for a girl geek but most importantly just what it means to have a nerdy lifestyle . I have formed a love affair with all things geek. Reading, gaming, comics, anime and so much more, these are my hobbies and I want to discuss them with others. What’s more? I want to be nerdier. I want to find out more about the things I already like and find new things to enjoy. So I started this blog as a study of myself as a nerd and to chronicle my adventures in learning new nerdy things. I want to talk about being a nerd, about being a nerdy girl, with other nerdy girls and anyone else who is into these things. If you’re interested let’s get this journey started.

For what it's worth, I blame your mom! Just kidding! If we're going to do that we should probably blame my mom while we're at it.
ReplyDeleteDoes getting into banjo music count? How about being excited about watching Antiques Roadshow?
And P.S.- I totally got Little Big Planet 2 for my birthday!
One of the best things about Prof. Layton and the Unwound Future is all the bonus crap at the end. There's a section that allows you to download bonus puzzles every week (although you don't get pikachus--sorry, picarats for solving them). It's been 5 months and they're still giving me little tasty morsels to solve.
ReplyDeleteAnd rightly so, because the Japanese already have the next game and two movies, and we have to wait onegillion more years for our turn.
