You know that just because a person is a nerd that is not a bad thing. I really don't know what I was considered in high school. But in College I am a Tolkien freak and a game and aneme nerd. Even though the people in my school now are grown up and stuff they still can act like children.

I have recently come to the conclusion that many teenage girls are like chickens. Now, no offense to any one, but if you have chickens you know how petty they are. The boys are much the same too. Also, some of them(the teenagers I mean) don't grow out of it.(hey I still do stupid petty things from time to time, lets face it none of us grow completely out of it; some are just worse than others) I think that this chicken way of life leads to unfair categorizing, and so those of us who are able to see the stupidity for what it is should stop it. But that won't happen anytime soon, now will it.

Don't get me wrong I try to be nice to most people, but my social skills are horrible and so I struggle. In College, especially the one I go to, the people look grown up some in their 40's and such but they aren’t. They still make fun of me 'cause I like Tolkien, but the rest of them are nerds too, that's why we're in the animation department. They just don't know it yet. One dude thought I was stupid because he was acting childish and was bugging me and I told him to leave me alone, repeatedly. I won't go into this because the story is too long. But he thinks I am stupid and tells a friend of mine while I was out of the room, like my friend wouldn’t tell me.... But anyway this is in college where we are supposed to be beyond this kind of thing. But we're not. We still act like chickens!

So, nerd yes. Ridiculed yes. do I care sometimes! and what do I do about it, keep taking Tolkien and Legacy of Kain till ears start to bleed.....
