Pure Nerd
60 % Nerd, 26% Geek, 13% 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, earning you the title of: Pure Nerd.

The times, they are a-changing. It used to be that being exceptionally smart led to being unpopular, which would ultimately lead to picking up all of the traits and tendences associated with the "dork." No-longer. Being smart isn't as socially crippling as it once was, and even more so as you get older: eventually being a Pure Nerd will likely be replaced with the following label: Purely Successful.

Thanks Again! -- THE NERD? GEEK? OR DORK? TEST

Opening the Cards

Last night I went to a BBQ with my friends. I was just comin back from Balikpapan and got the news of the party via SMS on the night of Valentines (not that anyone care about it hahaha). I was assuming it's just gonna be a harmless BBQ party of course. Then I came with TL at about 730ish. Surprisingly, there were a few bottles of vodka and wine up there. Apparently it's not just the BBQ hahaha.

I only tasted a few sips of wine as the place was pretty far from chez moi. As the amount of wine drank accumulated, We started talking dirty stuff...at that instant, I realized, how conservative I am ahhahaha. Everyone suddenly were so open about things that usually pretty taboo to talk about, some of them even went into detail. Yea, Wine really can creep up on u without u even realizing it.

After a few occurences and that fiasco last night, I think that we in the eastern seabord seem to shift our sets of value to the left (more liberal). Meanwhile, those in the West, they actually have a trend on going more conservative each day, especially after the surge of AIDS. The thing that made it tricky is just that in the east, the conservativeness is still apparent but diminishing while living "free sex" is slowly takin over without an obvious publicity. I think it's a dangerous situation as those 2 sets of values might clash one day.

Maybe it's just that I'm mingling with that type of people? haha,...maybe...am I out of place? maybe juga hahaha

Another Seinfeld Moment?

It's interesting how I can relate to things that's happening around me to a sitcom...Seinfeld. There was an episode when Seinfeld was going out with someone. He is a stand-up comic, so he loves to crack some jokes. Ironically this women hardly ever cracked a smile, even when he jokes. Then he went into her apt, and he met her roommate. He joked a bit and she laughs histerically... and Seinfeld loves her laugh. The problem was.....she's the roommate. How in the world you break up with someone and then hooking up with the roommate. He then counseled George (yea ,..the right person..hahah) about it and came up with "menage a trois" hahaha.

Something about 80% accurate is happening to me right now...the laugh, the close interaction, the weird circumstances...but of course...not menage a trois ahhahaha.
