Wanna know how big of a nerd I am?

[AngieDoogles]

Well, I should be in bed now since I have class in the morning, but I'm too excited to sleep...

Why??

Because I just finished a huge portion of what I feel is my best project/assignment/paper of my academic career and now I'm on a "high" and can't bring myself to go to bed...

Yup, I'm definitely a nerd! Why do I get so excited about this stuff? lol

[Mandy]

You are not a nerd! It IS exciting, and it's normal to be on a "high" after doing something you absolutly 100% happy with

Is this the one that you asked us for ideas? If so, what subject did you decide on? (Hey, I'm glad that you're happy with how it turned out too!!!!)

Angie, I'm glad you're enthusiastic about your education. I'm sure it helps you to be a much better student and it sure sounds like a lot more fun than it might otherwise be.

NOTHING wrong with being excited about a job well done!

Actually, it was a different assignment Diana. It is for my Human Behavior in the Macro Social Environment course. (Fancy way of saying we study why groups and communities behave the way they do and how this affects individuals...)

The assignment was to concentrate on a community problem and find a new, unique, never-before-thought-of solution to the problem. We weren't allowed to do research of any kind! I chose graffiti as my problem, because it's a problem with the community (it looks bad) and because it leads to problems in the individuals who do it (they could end up in jail). The solution was a local graffiti art gallery to display this form of "art" and a community center where the participants could come and create their art (a "hang out" of sorts to keep them out of trouble/danger). It was focused on young adults and adolescents, but there was a lot more to it as well. Hard to explain in just a paragraph, lol! I think the project turned out really well in the end though.

No wonder you were happy with your finished project!!! I think that you came up with a nice solution to a problem. Good going, Angie!!!!

Good for you feel very proud you work very hard.

[AngieDoogles]

Thanks everyone! Hopefully I'll be just as proud of the rest of my work for the semester. *fingers crossed* lol

What a wonderful solution! As a true nerd myself, I totally get your excitement. I think nerds get way more out of life, and are actually totally cool.
