| Ok... so basically on this thread I will ask you all to share the sports you play and for those who are a little more on ze dork side, talk about your favorite nerd past times! (Or both!)
I shall start-
Ive played hockey since I was 5 and been able to skate since ive been 3... It gifted me with gigantic theighs and an ass that a fat chick from the ghetto would be jealous of...
Martial arts has been mentioned elsewhere....
Soccer for recreation, damn coaches decided that their sweeper should be able to shoot instead of run, pass, push, and clear the damn ball >_>
I work out when I can (old self image issues that make me want to be buff and shiz... and being strong/happy is a nice bonus xD)
NERDOM TIIIME
Ok so I'm a music/theatre/english dork... I love all music except mainly honky tonk, gangsta rap, highschool punk (whiny bitches) and metal (All i hear is RAWWW RAW RAW RAAWWW) I love rock, orchestral (classic and modern), ska, progressive punk, indie and piano rock (ben folds anyone?) I also play the cello, electric bass and I sing
For theatre I do Improv/backstage/some acting... I also love the preforming arts with a pashion! However.... Im not that big of a fan of musicals unless the music can be applied outside of the show
My english nerd is what keeps me happeh xD... I love to read, all of my pet peeves are grammar based, I love to write poetry (not emo/angst shit) and short stories that usually have horror roots! My top 3 authors would have to be, Stephan King (yum...) Dan Brown (Angel and Demons, and The Lost Symbol = greatness) And... Roald Dahl b/c of all of the most AMAZING stories were the ones I grew up with
I also love comics and I cant stand anime...
NOW IT IS THINE TURN | |

| hah, fun topic...
I played soccer from 7th-12th grade. I was named the best defender in the league for 3 of those years. Suffered only 2 concussions from soccer. When I need an adrenaline boost, I just think about my coach; he had more passion than any pub full of soccer nazis could have handled.
I ran track, both indoor and outdoor track, and set a lot of school records. 55m Indoor 100m outdoor 200m, outdoor 200m indoor sprint medely distance medely 4X100m relay 4X200m relay And about 4 "relay only" events, that arent too popular. I came close to the long jump record; and our 4X200 indoor set a league record, as did our 4X100 outdoor, which was ranked 2nd in the state my senior year. I went to college for track, then left... GG!
NERDOM! Most people in real life have no idea that I play video games. Sadly, I know more about blizzard games than a lot of nerds, so they are blown away by my nerd-telligence. I played diablo 2 for like 7 years off and on. Warcraft 3 since it came out, off and on.. Until about a year and a half ago, i became a true CHA fanatic. People who know what WC3 is, that i meet in person, are amazed to hear that I make CHA.
I played Final Fantasy 8, 9, and 10. I sadly played 10-2, which was.. a bad game... I used to follow Dragon Ball Z religiously. Then this bullshit GT came out.
I once played with "LARPING" weapons. A friends older sisters friend, was a mega-nerd and went to larping competitions. For those who dont know, you put insulation tubes on a PVC pipe, and wrap it in duct tape. Well, you would be amazed just how hard you need to hit someone to break the pipe that is within that protective barrier... and god damn does it hurt, when done right. Then we got yelled at, because we broke half of them, and knocked a girl unconscious, and broke my finger (the first of 3 times that pinky finger got broken)
I am a closet nerd... | |

| Well... i used to play soccer for a silver club team moving to silver elite when I quit...also used to play baseball... but my big thing is surfing. I surf whenever I can, I am blessed to live near some of the best beaches in the world. Have to say my favorite spots round here are trestles, riviera, and if I'm willing to drive for 45mins, newport beach/ huntington.
Nerdom Umm i play cha and twilights eve probably more than i have time for, but school's my palace of nerddom. I am taking a more rigorous class load than any other person at my school, it is my goal to be valedictorian, I am in the International Baccalaureate program, taking 6 AP tests and 1 IB test next week, and havent been able to really get out of the house for about a month now just bc of homework. I swear when APs are over, I'm going to get so drunk i don't care if its a wednesday.....
im like you glorn, most ppl i know dont think I am a nerd, most don't even know i like computer games.

| I played some AAU baseball. I threw my arm out when i was 11 because i forgot to strech, and i never pitched for an all-star team again. From that point i played outfield, Right-field in AAU because i had a good arm but wasnt fast enoguh to play center. Later on i took to golf, I did well, because my Feet toeing in didnt matter and being skinny didnt hold me back.
Around 9th grade i started writing halo fanfiction, i started guitar this past thanksgiving, I wrote a 30 page science fiction book (which is different then sci-fi) about a year ago, and ive just been keeping up with the writing, playing and video games, i just recently fixed my Xbox so ive been doing some of that. | |
