The Nerd didn't post yesterday...

...and I don't have a good reason as to why, my dear readers. It just totally slipped my mind.

But the good news is, you didn't miss much! It was just another lazy snow day, and, in fact, you ought to be thanking me for sparing you from evil, evil abstract poetry.

But, sadly, we returned to school today. SO, let's recount the day's events.

Today, to go along with my newfound love for the sci-fi subgenre of steampunk, I chose to gang up with a few like-minded friends and wear Neo-Victorian clothes on what shall forever be known as STEAMPUNK THURSDAY.

In Biology, we listened to a long lecture about the immune system. In Acting, we did some work with past lives of characters and demonstrated how past lives and given circumstances can totally change a scene. In my off hour, I went to Old Chicago's All-You-Can-Eat Pizza Buffet with my friends, and upon returning, took part in a chain of my friends laying on each other, something I coined a "clothes-on orgy" of sorts. And in Math Studies, we worked on our IA's (IB slang for Internal Assessments, or the part of the IB exam done before the actual exam in May).

In rehearsal, we ran our production numbers thus far, and got yelled at for being sloppy by our director and choreographer and vocal coach. But, as always, I still had fun and feel privileged to be there.

And now, we reach the occasion of the day...

COOL NERD PRODUCT THURSDAY! {waste your money!}

Today's product can be found on ThinkGeek, the greatest of all nerd shops on the web (thinkgeek.com).

And it is truly marvelous.

This, my friends, is an 8-Bit Wristwatch. Fully-functional, tells the time, and looks super-retro-awesome. You might want to pick up ThinkGeek's 8-Bit Tie or 8-Bit Hair Bow to go with it and be extra pixelly!


And how about a vase of 8-Bit Flowers for that special somebody in your life?


Oh, baby...

I think that about wraps it up, gang! Now...to sleep!

This concludes the posting of The Mindless Ramblings of the Nerd for 3 February 2011. I hope to see you tomorrow for another exciting installment!
