A tribute to nerd-hood
I am a nerd... everyone knows it. I have my braces off but I am still a nerd at heart. Sometimes I am socially awkward (I think most people are but just can't admit it). I would rather go see my nieces than hang out with friends on weekends. My psychology teacher told me (no joke), "life is hard for Mormon nerds." umm... yeah apparently got the double whammy on that one. I like being a nerd- nerds make the world go round. I like riding my bike to the library to rent old movies. I love writing in my Franklin Covey day planner. I love making 'to do' lists and crossing things off. it makes me feel successful. I love watching the food network. I love when I have a book that is so good I literally forget about everything else and can't put it down. I love sitting at the UVU library and studying for hours, in my own little corner, then the next day acing the test. woot. I love getting the highest score in the class (a little prideful I know but what can I say). p.s that's only happened a couple times. I've thought a lot about this whole nerd thing... I think it skips generations, and it must be a recessive gene. My parents are both very socialiable, as a matter of fact so are all of my siblings. Then there's me... yikes. I just hope that my kids don't get the nerd genes (or the Stewart elbows), because here I sit on a Friday night studying for finals... Please tell me there are other nerdy people like me, I need nerdy friends to relate too... kthxbye.

I don't know why you think you are so nerdy. I don't get it. You were cute with your braces on, and with them off...yep, you're a looker, for sure. So much of a looker that part of your problem may be that you intimidate boys. Add to the smokin' good looks the facts that your are a marathon runner, talented, and oh so smart, and then drop in what seems to be the perfect family, and well, maybe you can now start to get the picture. Maybe an independently wealthy brain surgeon/Nascar driver might be able to live up to you, but for the rest of the mere mortal male population?
Hey Juli, When I read that post I thought, holy cow she is talking about me!!! I think that you are so funny and cute! We are all a lot more prone to your definition of nerd-hood than you think. I think you are more normal than you give yourself credit for. Sure love ya!!!!
