I explain why I disappeared for a week and share my favorite Avengers. I’d just like to note, that I like Captain America for reasons other than attractiveness, but it definitely tops the list. Other reasons: He’s a good leader, is responsible, and has a sense of duty.

Life back home is not the most interesting, but I did have fun spinning on a spindly chair while making this video. =D

I was lazy and decided not to edit, so if you were ever wondering what my unedited videos are like, you now have an answer - I ummm a lot, there are awkward silences, and I randomly look off to the side.  Also, I just talk as thoughts enter my head, so they have no particular order.  -.-‘

That awkward moment when your university library fails at life…

So, in prepartion for Note Day on May 6th, I was checking my university’s online catalogue for John Green books. From the searches, I found out that my library most likely does not have any books by John Green. Why does my school fail at life?!?

I plan on going to personally check later today (because there is a chance that I don’t know how to use online library search).   I know notes do not have to be specifically in those books, but I figured it was a good starting point and that may not even be a possibility now. If the library, in fact, does not have any John Green books, what do my fellow nerdfighters suggest?

Tag!

So, I was tagged the other day and I decided to take this opportunity to write a post since it has been so long.  Anyway, I was tagged and so I must share 10 things about myself.  The other stipulation required that I tag other people, but I am going to pretend that I didn’t read that part.

1)  I am a huge fan of The Big Bang Theory.  I have all the seasons (granted only four are out right now) and several t-shirts.  It’s funny and nerdtacular!  If you feel the need to hate on TBBT, then you can:

2)  I enjoy writing, but I only have the mental capacity to write short stories.  Any time I try to write anything longer, I get begin to thing my story was a stupid idea and I give up on it.  Chapter stories take so much dedication!  >.<

3)  There is this amazing candy called Cadbury Mini-Eggs and I am obsessed with them.  I did not realize I loved chocolate so much until I started eating them.  Ate a couple and I was addicted - hook, line, and sinker.

4)  I have three ‘pets’ in my dorm room.  I have a baby beta named Perseus, a goldfish named Amphitrite (this name made a lot more since when my other goldfish, Poseidon, was still alive), and a hibiscus named Lenny (I know he’s a plant, but he’s living and he deserved a name!).

5)  I own two of the awesomest (intentional bad grammar -deal with it!) pairs of socks.  They may not be argyle, but one has a crap ton of penguins (who doesn’t love penguins?):

And the other has Santa Claus going down a chimney!!!  =D

My socks are the very definition of awesome.

6)  I finished reading Looking for Alaskaa couple hours ago and it was awesome (obviously, because it was written by John Green, who is made of awesome).  I felt like a horrible person for laughing at this quote, though: “…And then I saw the Colonel his knees tucked to his chest, lying on his side on the bleachers…” (p. 140 - paperback version).  This needs some explanation; so that quote is from a scene where an important character was announced dead and here I am laughing at another character’s grief-stricken reaction - I am either a horrible person or I have a morbid sense of humor (the quote gave me this weird mental picture, which is why I laughed).  Or both.

7)  If you couldn’t already tell from my Tuesday video, I am a big fan of John Green and, although I didn’t mention him, Hank Green.  Vlogbrothers makes my life and I am proud Nerdfighter!  DFTBA!

8)  I really, really, really enjoy pistachios.  Someone was having a good day when they conceived the notion of roasting pistachios and eating them a delicious snack.

9) Because I am rather weird, I am fascinated by serial killers except not in a oooh-sounds-like-a-potential-hobby kind of way.  It’s just interesting to me to see in what ways the human mind can go completely wrong.  In fact, I find mental pathology to be interesting in general (this is probably why one of my majors is in psychology…)

10)  I am a part of the Honor’s College at my university and we are required to fulfill CAC hours (or community service - CAC stands for something but I am too lazy to look it up at the moment).  Since I am not much of a people person, I often volunteer at the Humane Society.  So to wrap up this post, here are some pictures of the adorable animals I get to work with:

Actually, volunteers and visitors are asked not to touch the puppies so they don’t get sick.  And it is so hard to resist!  I just want to hug ALL the animals!  I usually socialize the cats (because although I am an animal person in general, I am more specifically a cat person).  I have to wear gloves when I play with them, which kind of ruins petting, but the health of the kitty-cats is also important.  In fact, it’s just nice to be around animals, despite the gloves.  <3

Well, that’s all I have.  Ah, it feels nice to write a post again!  Why is college so time consuming?  >.<

Metaphorical fish, what is that you ask? Well, that would be me! I once described myself as having the the social skills of a fish. My friend having found humor in my statement, pointed out that I could be a metaphorical fish, and the rest is history.
