Confessions of a (Teenage) Geek: Geek Tuesdays


  • Oh hi there blog readers. This week's Geek Tuesday is focusing on video games and my obsession with them (and, for a larger part, button mashing)
  • Video games like Final Fantasy, Tekken, Mortal Kombat, Batman: Arkham Asylum and such have been a huge part of my life. And to that I blame my older brother, who shall be referred to as "Lord Vader". No seriously, I call him that.
  • I think what I find fascinating about these games is sort of the quest aspect to them. Final Fantasy you're trying to save the planet from destruction, Tekken is you fight your way to the top (as a respective character, with an ulterior motive for entering the Tekken competition), and for Batman, you're fighting your way out of Arkham Asylum.
  • How cool is that?!
  • And the ultimate epitome of a quest game (well, in my opinion!) is Kingdom Hearts (now, that's an obsession)
  • I also have a bit of an obsession with button mashing because I suck absolutely at playing the game and so I just wing it.
  • Way to teach me, Lord Vader.
  • Anyways, I think thats my absolutely most FUN thing I do when I'm absolutely annoyed at someone. It's usually a family member....

On the iPod: El Tango de Roxanne - Jose Feliciano/Ewan McGregor

  1. Yay, Geek Tuesday is at its 4th post. Boo Yah!
  2. So, this time, my geekiness will be based on musical movies. Like see the above picture.
  3. I guess it all started with that One Buffy episode, but whatever. I like them.
  4. I especially adored the Phantom, Moulin Rouge, Rent and other stuff like that
  5. Dr.Horrible's Sing Along Blog is also one of my favorites. And Rocky Horror Picture Show.
  6. It's kind of this unnatural obsession because everytime I hear soundtracks from any of them, I feel like belting it along.
  7. And I suck horribly at singing but that's never stopped me!
  8. Dr.Horrible and Phantom make me cry though. It's probably because Penny died and Christine left the Phantom for that jerk!
  9. Moulin Rouge, however, takes the cake and I bawl.
  10. Huh. So what are your favorite musical movie type things.

  3. I might also add, I'm a HUGE SMG (sarah michelle gellar) fan, that I am SO EXCITED FOR RINGER. and that new Buffy movie in talks. I IZ EXCITED!
  4. Believe it or not, I found a new obsession called Lost Girl (for like 18-25 but yanno, age doesn't stop me)
  5. It's. SO. GOOD. it messes with my psyche every freaking week.
  6. GAH!!!!!!!!
  7. I keep going back to Etsy to stare longingly towards all the steampunk stuff. *longing stare*
  8. DOCTOR WHO KEEPS GETTING SO AMAZING I MIGHT DIE.
  9. The Iron Fey series mocks me ,but I GET 3 DAYS OFF SO HAH!
  10. I should probably continue my homework during my free track but I'm blogging, so HAH.

Confession of a (Teenage) Geek: Geek Tuesday's


HOLY CRAP I HAVEN'T POSTED IN A WEEK. I blame the internet which I have not had since like last week but no fear, today's geek post is here!!!




1) Teen Wolf isn't on today,I find that super depressing. Thank god for Tumblr though because they feel my pain. *stares at downloads to finish so teen wolf can be on my iPod*

2) Bloodlines by Richelle Mead came out today. I. AM. SO. EXCITED.

3) So, re-watching Angel yesterday, I realized that sparked my obsession with vampires. But not just any kind, I'm talking being able to stake 'em and burn them in the sun. Also, Cordy was the BOMB!

4) Warehouse 13 and Eureka have taken up space on my computer. I regret nothing.

So while Geek Tuesday was short, tomorrow Books will be back!!!!!! With Texas Gothic.

Confessions of a (Teenage) Geek: Geek Tuesdays


My priorities are screwed. I'm SORRY BUT MY DVR CALLS TO ME!!!

but anyway I blame my obsession with Monday nights (like EUREKA, and WAREHOUSE 13 and TEEN WOLF?!) is exactly like my obsession with Thursday's and Friday's. But right now is Geek Tuesday's where I say what makes me scream with fangirlishness that rivals those "Twi-peoples" obsession.

1. I know the words to the entire musical episode of Buffy Once More, With Feeling. Like, if you ask me, I can break into "I Got a Theory/Bunnies/If We're Together"

2. The SYFY channel also makes me scream with delight every time I turn on the TV.

3. I went to Comic Con like two years ago and saw Supernatural on their panel. I went and the peoples found me awesome because I KNEW EVERYTHING ABOUT THE SHOW. It was awesome.

4. I have playlists FOR EVERYTHING. Don't see how this is weird but I have a playlist for cleaning. IT'S WEIRD.

5. I have an obsession with any show that is Supernatural. MTV's Teen Wolf, Vampire Diaries (!!!), Supernatural, Pretty Little Liars, Smallville, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, Torchwood, Firefly, Doctor Who.

6. Despite the list, only Doctor Who makes me want to go find a Time Lord and a TARDIS and have epic adventures.

7. Torchwood (adult show, tread carefully) makes me want to fight aliens and Captain Jack Harkness is totally swoon worthy. *cough*

7*. That being said, the main cast of Torchwood looked ridiculously good. Especially Ianto and Owen. God, I love them.


8. Only three episodes of Buffy were able to make me cry, Passion, Helpless, and Seeing Red. They're just... *bawls*

9. I saw Firefly when I was 5-6. I didn't understand it then 'till I was 12 and had Netflix and understood it. BUT YEAHH FIREFLY!

10. When I was a wee little child, my brother and sister introduced me to video games specifically the Final Fantasy franchise and Kingdom Hearts. In KH2, there was an organization called Organization 13 and I REALLY BADLY WANTED THIS COAT. And yearn for. I adore it that much.

Anything that makes you scream with joy? Or just something that was always in your life, post it on your blog and link it in the comments if you want.
