Nerd Bloghop

It's been so long since I've taken part in a blog hop. This one is so much fun that I couldn't resist!

 
What is the nerdiest thing about you?

Well... that would probably be my DRAGON COLLECTION. Yep, I really have one. And it looks like this:


My dragon collection. I have 9 (some are hard to see).

Notice my Harry Potter wands, the Triwizard Cup, and of course a ton of AWESOME books that make my dragon collection look a little less nerdy. Bwahaha, not really.

I've loved fantasy ever since grade five when I read my first Dragonlance book. It helped that my older brothers and sisters were all into fantasy. They played D&D (and I even got to play with them once! which was like the totally awesomest thing because I was only fourteen or fifteen and my sister and her friends were all in their twenties!), they painted the tiny figurines, my brother even built his own armor once. Me and fantasy = destined. I wrote fantasy stories from grade two (so I actually loved fantasy earlier! Hmmm... I don't know how it got started then) and always figured fantasy would be WHAT I WRITE. Which is NOT what I write at all now, funny enough. And I barely read it anymore either. :(

I feel I am neglecting my fantasy nerdness. Then again, I've been crazy deep into Merlin lately (still waiting for season four, waiiiiiiting!!!!!!) and I've rewatched The Hobbit a few too many times so that counts, right?

  1. My dragon collection is not so well behaved. They climb on the kitchen counters and eat baby chicks. Wait, no, that's the cats.

  3. This really makes me want a dragon. So cool! I haven't seen season 5 of Merlin yet. It's on Netflix, but I don't want the awesome journey to be over so I'm taking my time. :)

    1. No tattoo's. Although at my high school grad party, a tattoo artist was there just drawing tattoos for kids. What do you think I got? Yep, a red dragon on my arm! Ha.

  7. Fantasy is awesome! And your collection is so cool! (Nerds unite! lol)

    Now what makes me a nerd, which I share on my blog, is a bit odd for a girl. :P

  8. I was reading and I was like, oh! I wonder if she's a D&D player :) :)

    I used to read a ton of fantasy too, but it's been a while. I need to get back in!

    Thank you for hopping! I love this to death!
