9 Simple Tattoos That Speak To Your Inner Nerd

If you're some kind of nerd, you should be extremely proud of yourself. Congratulations, you are a part of the most interesting group of people! You're smart, fun to talk to, and most of all, very passionate about various subjects..

At some point or another, you may have considered donning yourself in a tattoo that reflects your nerdy-ness. But you've also got classy and understated taste, and don't want to over do it.

Here are some of my favorite "nerdy" tattoos I've come across, many of which I wouldn't mind getting myself!

1. Chemistry Nerd

Totally into science and chemistry? What a cute little nod to your passion that's not too distracting or big.


2. "Game of Thrones" Nerd

Most people who have seen "Game of Thrones" enjoy the show. While not technically nerds, you've got to be one to get this tattoo, that's for sure. If you're still rooting hard core for the Starks at this point, then you've made it far enough to deserve the direwolf sigil tattoo.


4. HTML Nerd

This one is seriously adorable. Especially if it's the kind of thing you do for a living. It's also basic enough for someone like me (who doesn't know too much about html) to understand.


5. 'Star Wars' Nerd

What I like most about this one is it's subtle placement behind the ear. What a perfect tattoo for the new movie coming out soon!


6. Disney Nerd

If you're a Disney nerd but don't want the usual Disney princess or 'Alice in Wonderland' cliche, this one is PERFECT! Get Rafiki's painting of Simba on your wrist for a cute, tiny little lion cub to give you smiles throughout the day.


7. Space Nerd

This super minimalist wrist tattoo is ideal for those who are obsessed with what lies beyond Earth and our solar system.


8. Writing Nerd

Big nerd for the written word? (Haha) The quill and ink pot on your thumbs are perfect (especially as you watch them type away amazing stories on your computer!!)

9. 'Harry Potter' Nerd

Probably one of the most beloved quotes in the series between Dumbledore and Snape. It will Always be a good idea for your HP themed tattoo.

Disclaimer: Being a nerd is totally cool. This isn't the 90s anymore where being called a "nerd" or a "geek" could actually kinda hurt your feelings. (See: All 90s teen sitcoms) Be loud. Be proud! Flaunt your nerd self.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into.

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
