The geek in me
I must admit, with the years passing, I’m beginning to like geek things more and more.
Since a month or two I have this crazy Star Wars obsession.
Not that I’m planning to become a Jedi (my Love told me that that’s an actual faith), that I want to walk around with Princess Amidala’s hairdo, or decorate my home like a spaceship (it’s not that bad), but somehow I keep spotting Star Wars things, almost like Star Wars merchandise is finally moving from the undergroud, you-don’t-want-people-to-mistake-you-for-a-huge-nerd to the retro-it’s-okay-and-cool-to-like-it scene or something.

Eitherway, I like it!
So after the purchase of two retro Star Wars prints for my Love’s birthday, you can now find me walking on these Adidas Star Wars sneakers. They’re actually one size too large for me, but my size was already sold out. It’s a comforting thought there are other girls (I can’t imagine there are a lot of guys with feet size 7) that are happy and geeky with them.
Which makes me wonder:
Do you have a bit of a geek in you?
Do you let it out, or do you hide it deep in the bottom of your soul?
Please share (and please don’t feel embarrast)!
And of course: may the force be with you this Sunday (and the rest of the century :-))
Is knitting and crochet geeky? Then I’am a geek I think, else no sorry, my other habits are quite ordinary, or maybe extraordinary ;) ✗✗✗ Essie
I have a lot of geek in me – and proud to be a geek! I love that these days it’s totally OK to be geeky!
You go girls and thanks for sharing! Proud to be a geek (or, just do what you like and don’t care what the world thinks! :-))
Ik ben een grote nerd (met als sinds de kleuterklas een bril) en ben een controlfreak. Vreselijke combi. ;)
