About Me

well... i'm a BIG TIME nerd, and quite proud of it. i lurv music and books and exceptionally good/bad movies. i love pbr, live music at homey dives, and collecting anti-smoking paraphernalia. i also love to camp, hike, climb rocks, bike (it's how i commute), and engage in behaviors that occasionally cause me injury.
currently, i'm trying to finish my doouble major in antropology (focus on archaeology) and history, but at this rate, who knows when that will happen? i also work for the university of minnesota libraries in wilson's shipping department. it's a monkey job that pays the bills.
other things about me:
anthropology major (focus on archaeology, hoping to go into paleopathology/ bioarchaeology) doubled with history (medieval europe)
sca-er (runs around in medieval clothes, does a lot of needlework projects, drinks like a fish at events)
i am still with the love of my life (yes, i love him so much that i linked him. you've got a problem with that?)

Modern, Cool Nerd
73 % Nerd, 52% Geek, 47% 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!
your age and gender: You scored higher than 99% on nerdiness You scored higher than 99% on geekosity You scored higher than 99% on dork points
