Linky Wednesday, Round 2. Is this going to be a thing?
And yes, I'm writing in Helvetica today.
NO WAY.
Just very diverse.
Slammin (yes, I still use that word) new purse from Charming Charlie and Big Bang Theory t-shirt from Mom.
A second selection from my senior recital. This one is entitled "Depuis le jour" and is from Charpentier's opera "Louise." Enjoy!
Hey guys! I discovered some really cool websites today that I wanted to share.
Is this gonna be a thing? I dunno. Maybe I'll make it a thing.
The first is the Art of Manliness. This site is...exactly what it says! A guide for men to be the best men they can, and to woo the best lady they can. There are tips on everything from whittling to romancing. It's quite interesting and informative even to a woman. I recommend it to any man who's looking for that little extra "something." If you hear of something similar for ladies, please let me know!
The second two I discovered though Art of Manliness. Nerd Fitness is dedicated to helping people become better. More confident, more fit, more spiritually aware. They're about setting goals for yourself, and achieving them. This, in itself, is nothing new. But Steve Kamb, creator of Nerd Fitness, relates it all to - guess what? - Nerds! He suggests thinking of your life as one big video game. Obviously it's a bit more in depth than that, but making a video game out of anything always makes it more fun!
Khan Academy is really cool. They've got videos, links, and all kinds of resources to help you learn stuff! It's a very cool resource, especially for those of us who have completed all of our forseeable formal education. I'm not sure where their name came from, but I'm pretending Star Trek had something to do with it.
Should this be a thing?
Hey guys! Here's my wrap up video from my most recent convention: TimeGate! We had an amazing time and are already looking forward to next year!!

Hey guys! This weekend I was experiencing some technical difficulties with the website. I think I've got it fixed now! I'm so sorry to all of you who tried to visit me only to have the site not work. :( Sad panda! But I think everything is ok now. <3 you all!
We're back from TimeGate, and a wrap-up video is forthcoming. So are pictures! I have tweeted a few, so see them here. More to come of course. I met some wonderful people, and and am so glad we drove the 4 hours to Atlanta. We had an amazing time, and I'm more excited for Dragon*Con than ever before!!
I got a fantastic cut and color that I can't wait to show everyone! And also, my new Teefury shirt!!
This article provides some great insight into geeky friend groups! It's a really interesting read and you'll probably see yourself in it at least once! I sure did...

I love that someone has actually pointed all of these out. They are only subtly different from each other, but quite detrimental to both the 'carrier' and their friends in varying ways. I've experienced all of them at some point, whether in myself or someone I know. Read up!
