I have been so incredibly busy with this last quarter of the
semester. This past weekend was the
Medieval Fair and I had so much fun! Now, I know a good deal of you probably
think that Medieval Fairs are full of nerds I am here to tell you that that is
indeed the case. However, that being
said, I am a nerd. I am a major nerd. That does not mean that we are a bunch of
people that sit in front of the TV and play video games or have our head in
books all day. The Medieval Fair is when we get to show off how nerdy and awesome
we are. This year my college’s Medieval Society went out and showcased our
studies of the Byzantine Empire. You know what that means don’t you? Awesome
costumes!
That is me holding a battle axe, you cannot see the top of it
though. Oh, well. I was a Byzantine Turk. This year we had a wide range of “nationalities”
in our group this year. Here are some more pictures of me and my fabulously
nerdy friends!
Hope you enjoyed that as much as I did. Go out and support your
fellow nerds and go join them at Medieval Fairs, Renaissance Fairs, and Comic
Book/Anime/Star Wars/Star Trek Conventions. We spend lots of time doing what we
love and we are good at it. Parental Figures, look at it this way, would you
rather have a kid that is a huge nerd that becomes the CEO of a company or gets
another high paying job, or would you rather have a kid that is super popular
that drops out of school and become a drug addict that flips burgers for a
living? I know that is a little extreme, but what can I say? I am an academic
after all.
Abschied für dich! Halten schön zu sein!
