Hey this is awkward and you might yell at me

Temporarily logging on for the first time in months to ask for votes on a paragraph I wrote. No signing up or anything. It’ll take five seconds. Sorry.

To update you so that you have some information about what’s going on:

I was accepted to go to my first choice college so that I can major in Media Arts. Film making has become a major part in my life, and I’d like to continue to do that. Paying for college, however, is becoming a scary thing to think about.

This essay was written about how I could impact others with my education. Tumblr, you know how simple videos and movies can bring a great impact. I want to do that someday. I know the power that Tumblr has for making things viral; I am aware of it, but I know that it probably won’t happen to me. I would need more than 7000 votes on this, and that’s just as of today. I don’t have that many Facebook friends. 

Please, please help me. I know that I haven’t been here for a while and perhaps this is annoying you, and I’m sorry. If you help me out, I would be so grateful.

Thanks you guys!

Let us all be BOOKWORMS.

My mom was amused at the comments in this video. She said, “These people are guessing what DFTBA stands for, and it’s funny because they don’t know. Like, ‘Darling, fetch the battle ax.’”

My sister and I started laughing, and then we burst into song.

My mom now understands that “Darling, fetch the battle ax” is actually further evidence that the commentor is a nerdfighter.

WE TOOK NOTES ON THIS IN MY MATH CLASS SO EXCITING! “SOME INFINITIES ARE BIGGER THAN OTHER INFINITIES” - John green DFTBA

unfortunately this is not a fact and even John himself has pointed this out :(

** The way that Hazel phrased it in the book was incorrect, but the actual “some infinities are bigger than other infinities” is actually true (depending on your opinion of course, it’s still a theory.) 

“Hazel is wrong about infinite cardinality but she’s right that some infinities are larger than others. I wanted her to be wrong, but right, because that’s how we muddle through as observers of the universe. Forging meaning where we can find it.” -John Green, Wrong but Right: Thoughts from Places Amsterdam (x)

So good news, infinity is still crazy weird and interesting!

(I made a video about this topic but here’s another that probably explains it better.)

Definitely awesome!

Great! My friend said that I’ll look back on it in twenty years and laugh, and so will other people. I was hesitant to use it, but I was out of time and wrote it down anyway.

So for some reason I didn’t get the packet with information about senior pictures, so today I found out we could have a senior quote.

Now, because I found this out today, and the paper was due today, I had about a half hour to look up a quote.

I’d go to Tumblr, but it’s blocked at school. So I just looked up John Green quotes.

I found one that I hadn’t seen before, but I showed it to a few friends and one said it’s going to be the best in the whole yearbook.

My senior quote is going to be:

Sometimes I get ‘readers-block’, like I can’t read anything so save my life, I’ll start 10 books and stop each after seven pages because all I’ll want is to already have read that book and not actually read it and I won’t be able to focus at all and it pains me so much.

There was a time when I was just learning how to use Tumblr and I was shown Missing e and I thought it was a secret part of Tumblr that the creators came up with as like a secret bonus kind of like getting an extra award or achievement in a video game because the little e. is up there with all the other buttons so when the box came up that explained how totally jealous the creators were of Missing e could “potentially be a hazard” I was confused because I didn’t understand why Tumblr wanted to take away my rightfully unlocked bonus.
