I declare that YouTube is a fascinating and dangerous place that exists both within and without time...in other words I think I'm only watching a few cat videos and then five hours later (after watching basically every cat video in existence)...my brain has melted and I have ceased to exist.

I have just pulled myself out of one of the most dangerous worm holes one could ever fall in. I got sucked into a David Tennant vortex for over 3 hours (possibly over 4...I lost track of time). It started with Doctor Who scenes, then interviews, then behind the scenes stuff, then comedy show appearances, then stuff about his other stuff, then it all lead to Much Ado About Nothing and digitaltheatre.com. I would have only been at it for maybe just an hour and a half (since I was originally just watching the Doctor Who stuff) if I hadn't stumbled on one short video that sent me to the entire show it was taken from. This...was that video.



It was over from there. I couldn't stop myself from clicking on all the videos in the side bar and at the end of each clip. It was a David Tennant monsoon. Let me tell you, it was a tough vortex to climb out of but I'm glad I did cause my head is starting to hurt and everything I think is spoken in his voice in my head...everything. As I say the words I am typing now in my mind...I hear him speaking them in his outrageously amazing accent. I can't get enough of the man. Oh dear...if you don't hear from me again for a while...the vortex sucked me back in tomorrow.

Well, back to YouTube for my daily subscriptions...I can only hope I don't see another David Tennant video in the sidebar that I haven't already watched. 

Alons-y!

I've posted some geeky hand painted ornaments in my etsy shop that I know will be appreciated by all you nerds. Click on the subject of each ornament (ex. Tardis) to get to the item on etsy.

We've got the Tardis
The Deathstar

The Pokeball

Okami

And several others. Go check them out!!! :D

I think that there is something I need to admit to you guys...I have been spending a lot of time watching a Japanese show called "Playful Kiss" on Netflix. I walked into my sister's room and she was watching it, I sat down for a minute and that was it. How can a show so dramatic, ridiculous (yet hilarious), and frustrating be so hard to stop watching?!

The interesting thing about watching Japanese shows (like anime) is that their culture is so different so there are moments when some context doesn't make sense with the translation of what they are saying (or it does but their words seem harsher than the characters seem to take them). Then, of course, there is the fact that they are actually speaking Japanese. The odd thing about it is...you kind of forget they aren't speaking English after a while.

Anyway...confession done. I had better go see if my sister is watching a new episode without me. It's basically all we have done today (other than yard work...gross). Hopefully I can do something more productive tonight like working on music or on my Harry Potter poster. ;)

Peace out nerdies!

P.S. I know your curious so you should just go watch the show. As dramatic as it can get, it is also wildly hilarious. ;)

Well, little update. According to Pottermore I am actually not a Hufflepuff (I was just getting used to the idea too). JK Rowling and the sorting hat tell me that I am (da da da da) a Gryffindor. Who knew? So it seems a little re-decorating is in order! ;)

So what to say? Well, I've been doing my little Pottermore beta version test run fun, I've made some new items for my etsy shop, I've continued to be a huge nerd, etc. Danielle and I went to the midnight showing of Deathly Hallows part 2 (of course) and I really should have posted a long excited ramble on here but I have been writing a lot on our join blog lately which tends to cause me to neglect this one. Well...NO MORE! Now that I've re-decorated the blog and started working on pages as well as the layout, I am going to be posting more often.

YAY!

Love you guys! :D

I will never shop anywhere else again...well accept for amazon.com of course...and maybe the grocery store...and maybe Barnes and Noble.

You see, in my last post I mentioned that I had an amazon gift card and that I wasn't sure what to use it on...I found the perfect item. Luckily amazon and many other companies work together on the same site so I stumbled across the oh so wonderful think geek (which I was actually already subscribed to on youtube I just hadn't ever actually been to their website yet) which brought to me many money spending options. The item I finally settled on was chosen simply because it made me laugh so hard I couldn't breath. By the time I woke up (after passing out from the lack of oxygen my brain was getting due to the laughter) I had clicked the "add to cart" button...the point of no return.

Let me just say, this can of unicorn meat is all I hoped it would be.





Of course...Katara doesn't seem to be too thrilled about my recent purchase, but I am.


I am also changed forever. I think I spend more time on think geek looking for future purchases (like the star trek enterprise pizza cutter I absolutely must have) than I do completing productive tasks. I love the internet and boy do I love the nerdy things you can find on here.

IN HONOR OF THIS WONDERFUL DAY, I HAVE SET MY KEY BOARD ON CRUISE CONTROL BY HITTING THAT OH SO AMAZING CAPS LOCK BUTTON. DOESN'T IT FEEL LIKE I'M SHOUTING EVERYTHING? WONDERFUL ISN'T IT?

WELL, TO CELEBRATE THIS, THE DAY OF ALL CAPS, KICK BACK, SET YOUR CAPS LOCK, AND GET WRITING THOSE OVER THE TOP YOUTUBE COMMENTS TO THE SOUND OF LUKE AND KRISTINA IN THE BACKGROUND. WHAT BETTER BAND TO LISTEN TO ON CAPS LOCK DAY THAN ALL CAPS!

HERE'S A SONG FROM THEM THAT IS EXTRA NERDY/POKEMONLICIOUS. PEACE OUT NERDIES!

Yeah, I know I already posted yesterday, but I just had to mention this.

So today I got to see Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World and lets just say that it's the perfect blend of nerdiness, comedy, and art. It's very different from any movie I've ever seen. It is extremely funny and it is also so nerdy it's completely awesome. The way I'd describe it is a sort of live version of a comic strip/video game. Yeah...it's THAT awesome.

And may I note, randomly, that I find it entirely awesome that the guy who plays Todd Ingram is the same guy who is Daniel Shaw in CHUCK (nerd alert) and Superman in Superman Returns. I mean, I love that Chris Evans was in it and everything (I love Chris Evans), it's just that I found it extremely hilarious that Brandon Routh was in that role (and he did a great job too).

Anyway, just thought I'd mention it because it's jumped up pretty high on my favorite movies list (there are a lot of movies on my favorite movie list). Here's a trailer just for fun.

Peace out nerdies!

So my best friend is going to be holding a photo contest on her used bookstore blog (you can find it here) at some point in the future and she has asked me to design some shirts, for my shop, that she might pick from for the prize. Of course this works out for both of us as I get to create some new, awesome, nerdy merch and she gets to snag an awesome prize for a little less than it would cost to get a snorg tee or what not.

There is nothing more exciting for me than having the chance to design something that is book themed (except for maybe designing something movie themed, YouTube themed, Pokemon themed, etc.) so I am going to let you guys in on the process of this new project. The idea is that I am going to create a series of these shirts that sort of symbolize some of people's favorite books.

So, what I need from people, are lists of their favorite books. They can be new, they can be classics, whatever you want but please don't suggest any inappropriate books. I will only choose a few of the suggestions.

So far I've chosen to do Harry Potter (of course), Twilight (unavoidable), Jane Austen (basically all her books will fit into the one design anyway), Percy Jackson (oooooooooooooooof course), and possibly some Shakespeare. I already have some Hunger Games shirts but I am also thinking of doing one for that as well or one for each of the books (since they each have different themes, in a way).

So, that is my list so far. I will be adding to it, in my mind, each time I think of something but it would help to get some suggestions from the internet world.

What are some of your favorite books/book series? Please comment below if you have one that you would love to see a shirt design for. I won't tell you exactly what this series of shirts is going to look like just yet, but know that it will be awesome because I am excited. Now, that's enough writing for the day. I am going to go and play some Mario Cart with my brother and sister so...peace out nerdies!

Oh dear...I sound like Dan Brown. I have got to stop spending so much time on YouTube. Well, that's the life of an undercover nerd isn't it.

To start off, I just want to introduce myself. My name is Breanna and I am an aspiring author and youtuber. I am basically busy every day writing blogs and articles, working on my book, making youtube videos, and creating t-shirts, all the while making pretty much no money at all.

I am 22 and I live in my parents basement with a computer full of videos and stories, a bookshelf overloaded with Young Adult fiction, several drawers full of action movies, a bird cage that currently houses a sick little finch (Kiko, he seems to be doing better today, but seeing as I have to keep him warm with a heater...my room is boiling hot right now), a fish tank with three wonderful goldfish (two of them named after book characters), a bazillion stuffed animals, pokemon cards, and a bunch of useless junk that I refuse to get rid of. I am hoping to publish soon (or suddenly get a ton of subscriers on YouTube, which will be hard since I have like six separate channels floating around out there) so I can get out of the basement and move me and all my useless junk into an apartment.

I dream of getting a German shepherd and naming her Zoey (I did choose that name long before I became a CTFxCer) just so that I can call her Z in the same way that they say it in Charlie the Unicorn 2.

I have, on more than one occasion, taken video of a double rainbow and I have also recorded many of the crazy antics of my two cats.

I love Shakespeare and several Japanese anime shows like Avatar the Last Aribender (and Vampire Knight, that show has the drama of Twilight and a soap opera mixed together in almost every episode).

I spend a lot of time on YouTube (as I mentioned before) and I participate in writing role plays for The Chronicles of Ancient Darkness on The Clan.

I also wrote my own version of Harry Potter and the Half-blood Prince before the book came out in which I included an American exchange student.

I listen to wizard rock and nerd bands like ALL CAPS.

When I'm not writing, reading, filming, watching movies, or catching up on my shows (Psych, White Collar, Burn Notice, Castle--duh, he's a writer which makes it ten times as awesome that he solves crime--, Chuck, Justified, etc. etc.), I am playing around with my finicky graphics tablet. Lately I have been creating a lot of t-shirts on zazzle for this blog and for other blogs and books. I've sold quite a few Hunger Games inspired shirts lately, my favorite one being the most popular (yay!) :D Zazzle is basically my only income since I don't get much from writing for examiner.com (I've made a total of about $8 as an examiner this entire summer...I am no good at getting people to read my articles).

So that's me. A penniless starving artist sitting in a boiling hot basement room at her computer (with a bowl of popcorn and Justin Bieber, Taio Cruz, One Republic, and Ministry of Magic in her headphones) watching YouTube videos/blogging about things that don't really even matter to most of the world. This should be a lot of fun. Want to join me? Cool.

Lets be friends.
