White and Nerdy!

So the thing is, I have been finding it hard to write on my blog often because I've been trying to think of things that would go well with "I love life because...". This have proven hard for me, so I've decided that I am going to change the outline of my blog a little. I'm still going to try and make everything positive, but I'm just going to write about what I want. Not just something that I think makes my life wonderful, but still things that are important or even funny to me. I know that it'll be a little different reading for the two people that read my blog, but I'm still the same writer ;)

The item of topic today is being a nerd. Nerdiness. The all intensive definition of the N.E.R.D. So the Webster's definition of "nerd" is: an unstylish, unattractive, or socially inept person; especially one slavishly devoted to intellectual or academic pursuits. Now...I don't really believe that this is a good definition of a nerd. Unless you are talking about Sheldon from the Big Bang Theory. Even then I don't think it is necessarily true. He's not a terribly unattractive person. Still, this definition seems a little extreme. There is also the whole debacle about the difference between a nerd and a geek...I honestly don't care. Nerd just sounds nicer than geek.

So, I have been called a nerd many times. I also consider myself pretty nerdy, and I'm not ashamed of it. Some people point out similarities between me and Sheldon from Big Bang. For one, I have a spot on the couch. Everyone knows this in the apartment, and when someone is sitting there it bothers me. I can handle sitting somewhere else, but it's still my spot. No glare on the TV, not drafty by the window, and not under the heater vent. I doth like it. Therefore I sit there when it is free. I am also OCD about quite a few things. Just an example, when I was waiting for a friend at Best Buy, I organized their pen selection. Color, style, it was organized when I left. That also may have been due to boredom, but it still bothered me. Another thing is when I hear someone say something that I know is wrong, I want to correct them. Some may think that this is because I'm a jerk, but it's not. I really just don't like hearing people say the wrong thing. So I correct them. These are just a few things that makes me nerdy.

Anyway, to close this absolutely pointless blog post I will just say, I am nerdy and I don't care. The people who think they are too cool for everything...they are really just closet nerds. They are just afraid to let people know. Well, alas I have no idea what to say not so I will say goodbye. Have a good day, live long and prosper.
