    I studied electrical engineering but I like to read medical books in my free time. I wouldn't become a doctor because I'm too squeamish though. I think I wanna take the mcat one day to see how I'd do maybe because I've been reading them since I was little.

    I thought I was a nerd because I'm in the 'walking to Mordor' group.

    Now I realise if I can't read binary and don't play those games maybe maybe I don't qualilfy...........yet.

    Because... There are only 10 kinds of people in the world. Those who understand binary, and those who don't. :-)

    BBT is amazing! The writers are geniuses!

    I know I'm a nerd because I am a grammar nazi. I can't stand the people who txt lyk ths! It makes me want to cry.. "People cry because they're sad. For example, I cry because other are stupid and that makes me sad."

    Last week, I corrected my teacher's improper use of a semi colon on my mid-term. 0:-)



    I love that you correct your teachers. I always tell my son,

    "Your teachers are wrong, I am right!"

    The big "N" on my forehead. I've tried to cover it up with all kinds of girls make-up but still shines through.

    I object to the term "nerd." I am a geek. :)

    Exhibit A: I've got a shirt that says "Schrodinger's Cat is Dead" on one side, and "Schrodinger's Cat is Not Dead" on the other. It's one of my favorites.

    Ok my boyfriend loves the sound of this t-shirt and his birthday is upcoming, where did you get it?

    ThinkGeek.com. :)

    1. I drop my voice to a much lower pitch and say, "God Mode" when I land a series of barbs on someone I don't like and he/she has no satisfying retort.

    2. I use D&D-speak waaaaaay too much in everyday life. Example: when I solve a problem on my first try at work, my immediate reaction is, "Yeah! Rolled a natural 20!" Nobody gets it but I don't care.

    3. I use Excel to track everything that involves numbers, including my exercise mileage.

    agreed colliding protons at 7 T eV is pretty "get off" worthy

    Did I mention that I have four personal computers (Gamer desktop, 2 win-tel laptops, and a MacBook Air), two phones (iPhone and Blackberry), a Kindle, a Garmin GPS watch, and a Polar HRM.

    I once wore my Garmin while I was playing tennis in Pointe Noir, Congo. Uploaded it to my laptop so I could see my movements around the tennis court. Unfortunately, it was off by about 100 meters, so the squiggles were out over the South Pacific.

    I also know all of the States in alphabetical order.

    I am a science teacher, love that I have been compared to Ms. Frizzle from the Magic School Bus and I am a long distance runner.
