See you soon!!!

Out of the 50 states in the United States of America, which is the ONLY one wtih a ONE-SYLLABLE name?  Watch and find out!

Whether you love school, sports, music, art, technology, etc. it is awesome to be you.  Do not let others make you feel bad about yourself.  You should also understand that there are many who are just like you.   You are not alone. Watch this video of Wil Wheaton. This former Star Trek star and proud Nerd answered a young girl who asked him how she should deal with being called a “nerd” by classmates. Wheaton’s response is great.

As a matter of fact, if someone calls you a nerd, I would take it as a compliment.  It's probably because you love school, and are good at it.  It can be hurtful, to be called names.  Please understand  when people are mean, it's not about YOU.  It's about THEM.  

"Magic is believing in yourself, if you can do that, you can make anything happen."

-Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
