gotta catch em all

When I was about 4 years old, I became obsessed with Pokemon. I even had my mom memorize all 151 names and pictures that I had displayed on a poster in my room. However, I grew out of that faze of nerdom and went on to play Neopets and watch Heroes, which I also later grew out of. Now I design cosplay costumes and sulk about not going to Comic Con. (sigh)
Anyways, my friend and I decided to relive our love of Pokemon by creating an awesome video that was greatly inspired by this wonderful YouTube video:



So here's our version:


Whataya think?
Because I am very very bored, here are some other links full of nerdy-goodness and such. Enjoy :)

  1. Nerdometer Test -- Think you're super nerdy? Think again.
  2. Project : Rooftop -- Basically, it's Project Runway for comic book artists, in which they totally revamp classic superheroes' well-known outfits.
  3. Addicting Games -- While this website isn't necessarily "nerdy" it sure is fun. 
  4. Smosh -- Hilarious and entertaining, Smosh has even created their take on the Pokemon theme song.
  5. Awkward Family Photos  -- If you think your family can be a little strange, think again.
  6. Top 25 Geeks in Movies -- Self-explanatory awesomeness
  7. SP Studio -- Make yourself into a South Park character!
  8. 5 of the World's Biggest (and Most Worrisome) Toy Collections -- This truly scares me...
  9. Hipstery -- Want a mystery hipster shirt?

Here are some random cool things for yall to know.

What would Anne Boleyn Do? Well now you can ask her in person.
Head over to Anne Boleyn's blog.

Yeah, she's really good at all kinds of advice. ;)

Anyways, I was bored one day and I found an awesome article about toys from my childhood. Well actually, they were toy fads. You know, like Pokemon, Furbies, Trolls, TMNT, etc. After I looked through all of them I looked at the comments, which were overwhelmingly nostalgic. It's awesome how childhood memories can bring people together, even if it is just a toy. You can find a similar article here: http://www.babble.com/products/kids-products/kid-toys-zhu-zhu-pets-silly-bandz-gak/
Between my friends and I, the major toys and cartoons we were into were Spongebob (of course) and Pokemon. Oh come on, you know you liked Pokemon. Who didn't?
Yes, this is a chart of some of the original Pokemon. I'm telling you, my friends and I were OBSESSED with these little creatures. Of course, we all had crushes on Ash. He was a little animated cutie. Someone said she had a crush on Brock, which is weird because he just stood there and chased after girls.
Ok, so the other favorite cartoon of our childhoods was Spongebob Squarepants. Seriously, I STILL watch Spongebob. One does not realize how hilarious that little sponge is until they have seen these certain scenes (Not in order of awesomeness):
1. The Striped Sweater Song -- Every time I even think of it, I have to start singing it. It's an instant classic.
2. Weenie Hut General -- So basically, there's this place called Weenie Hut Jr's, which is a hot dog restaurant for nerds. Then, Spongebob gets hurt and he has to go to the medical counterpart "Weenie Hut General."
3. Band Geeks -- This entire episode makes me laugh. From the baton twirlers colliding with a blimp, to Spongebob's "lucky" dance, to the awesome performance at the end of the episode, it is truly hilarious. Here's the FULL EPISODE: http://www.spike.com/video/spongebob/2776228
4. Training Video -- The Krusty Krab Training Video gives you all the possible knowledge you need of how to be a cashier, fry cook, etc. And the real meaning of "poop." Here's the link: http://spongebob.nick.com/videos/play/krusty-krab-training-video-full/

Ok, I'm done for now.
"Fancy livin, here we come! LA LA LA LA LAAAAAA"
