Its that time of year guys. Summer. The time of the big cons, the ones I always live for and love: E3 and San Diego Comic Con. This is when my full nerd comes out; when all the announcements for new games, books, movies, etc. come out and giving me nerdgasm after nerdgasm. With E3 basically wrapped up (and of course, I didn’t go. You have to be so-and-so’s second cousin twice removed to get into that guy haha), I’ve compiled a short list of what excited me the most, what I’m looking forward to the most.
Quidditch, Anyone?

No, we don’t fly. I’m sorry to disappoint you.
New Harry Potter Box Set: Good or Bad?

Now, of course, Potterheads everywhere went nuts. With the book series finished in 2007 and the movies series finished just last summer, we’re dying to keep the magic alive with some new releases, anticipation and excitement.

Geek Pride Day
Happy Geek Pride Day everyone!
My dad texted me this morning to let me know that it was geek pride day and all I could think of was…isn’t that every day?
I guess that’s only for me!
And maybe you too!
A New Mode of Transportation
So my goal of the summer, besides having a wicked awesome time before being literally buried underneath homework at CSUF in the fall, is to buy a new car.
I love my current car, especially with all her nerd stickers, but its time to move on. And as I’ve been perusing autotrader, trying to figure out what car I want, I’ve been thinking of all the different modes of transportation in all the fandoms I’m obsessed with.
And then I came up with a list. A list of my top 8 most wanted fictional modes of transportation.
