You are a nerd, you know that?
Almost nobody from my close circle knows about the konami code.
Usually the rickroll music plays when you enter the konami code, but I like to avoid cliches.
I invited John Cena to sing for us!!!!!!!!!

Am I really brave?
This is entry #2 for the Bloganuary challenge. Today’s prompt is “How are you brave?” I never considered myself a brave person, but now that I think about it… there might be some part of bravery inside me. Why? Because I have a higher risk tolerance than others, and you need to be brave for...
