Your result for The Nerd? Geek? or Dork? Test...

Modern, Cool Nerd

70 % Nerd, 52% Geek, 13% Dork

For The Record:

A Nerd is someone who is passionate about learning/being smart/academia.

A Geek is someone who is passionate about some particular area or subject, often an obscure or difficult one.

A Dork is someone who has difficulty with common social expectations/interactions.

You scored better than half in Nerd and Geek, earning you the title of: Modern, Cool Nerd.

Nerds didn't use to be cool, but in the 90's that all changed. It used to be that, if you were a computer expert, you had to wear plaid or a pocket protector or suspenders or something that announced to the world that you couldn't quite fit in. Not anymore. Now, the intelligent and geeky have eked out for themselves a modicum of respect at the very least, and "geek is chic." The Modern, Cool Nerd is intelligent, knowledgable and always the person to call in a crisis (needing computer advice/an arcane bit of trivia knowledge). They are the one you want as your lifeline in Who Wants to Be a Millionaire (or the one up there, winning the million bucks)!

Congratulations!

a facebook friend posted a link today that lead to this:

it's freaking terrifying. the first time i had a child i was young and stupid and didn't know any better, and ended up with care like this and an overly-clinical and rushed delivery. hindsight is always so clear, right? luckily i knew more and did more research with my next two deliveries and they both went much better. but it's things like this that just make me want to rant for hours and then cry.

Current Mood:

there's this pressure in my chest, almost like a nostalgia or a yearning... i feel it when i think of going out dancing, when i think of seeing indra again, when i listen to good music, when i think of seeing old friends, even when i contemplate... deep space. my soul says to me "yes! do this!"... but i'm stuck here.

I can fly
But I want his wings
I can shine even in the darkness
But I crave the light that he brings
Revel in the songs that he sings
My angel Gabriel

I can love
But I need his heart
I am strong even on my own
But from him I never want to part
He's been there since the very start
My angel Gabriel
My angel Gabriel

Bless the day he came to be
Angel's wings carried him to me
Heavenly
I can fly
But I want his wings
I can shine even in the darkness
But I crave the light that he brings
Revel in the songs that he sings
My angel Gabriel
My angel Gabriel
My angel Gabriel

(too bad the name in this song isn't Indra, 'cause it's about perfect...)

ooops. this is why i shouldn't let the kids play in my room. Zar is currently leading her stuffed animal around by a "leash"... in actuality a black canvas and velvet bondage strap... i don't have the heart to take it away from her, she's playing so nice.

"During a battle patrol near l’Epinette, France, “Mad Jack” gave the signal to begin the attack by felling a German non-commissioned officer with an arrow - becoming the only British soldier to have killed an enemy during the war with a bow and arrow.

As a field officer, “Fighting Jack” led two companies in Operation Archery, the attack at Vågsøy, Norway on December 27, 1941. According to witnesses, when the ramp fell of the first landing craft, Jack moved forward playing The March of the Cameron Men on the bagpipes, he then threw a grenade and began running towards the objective. I’m pretty sure the Germans could have just given up right then.

At Salerno, Captain Jack* infiltrated the German position with a single corporal for support. I don’t know what the details behind this decision were, but apparently Jack didn’t find fighting WWII armed as a D&D character challenging enough for his tastes and left his infantry company behind."
