I have a confession. I'm a geek. I had no idea till last night. I always knew I was a nerd, but a geek? Me? I think it's because I am married to a computer geek and spend lots of social time with uber-geeks. By comparison, I felt very un-geeky. I admit, I didn't even get why everyone kept saying "It's a trap!" at a Star Wars themed birthday party last year (perhaps being at a Star Wars birthday party should have been a giveaway...?). But after laughing over
this pin last night, I realized it's true. I, Jenny Chang, am a geek. To celebrate, here are some fun geek finds and crafts.
Lately my show of choice has been
Doctor Who. I started with the newest version and blasted through all five seasons available on Netflix. My favorite episode by far is "Blink." IT'S SO GOOD.
My first love was Star Trek TNG. I watched it growing up. My husband and I recently went through the whole series again and then watched through Star Trek Voyager.

I never really thought of Harry Potter as a geek thing, but after my late night epiphany I'm thinking it fits in. I really can't get enough Harry Potter. I've read each book a couple of times and watch the movies on a regular basis. If you are a HP fan I also recommend playing
Lego Harry Potter for Wii and watching the
Potter Puppet Pals. Yeah...
What are some of your favorite geeky things? Do you have a show you can't get enough of?
Hahha...I too always thought I was an "art nerd" but not a serious, real geek until lately. My hubby to be is a computer engineer, but lately my html skills have surpassed him (he doesn't have any, really) so I guess that makes me a computer nerd too, right?
ReplyDeleteI love the Potter pendants! I am also married to someone who is much geekier than me so I don't really think of myself as a geek. But there are a lot of nerd references that I get that I'm sure most people don't.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite sci-fi shows that I've watched with Jake have been Dollhouse and Farscape.
I am a huge Harry Potter fan, too. I've been thinking about writing a Harry Potter craft projects article.
