Itās a promise that I try to embody every day.
I got into the Nerdfighter community by accident.
I read Looking for Alaska and An Abundance of Katherines right after they came out. Of course, Brotherhood 2.0 wasnāt in existence when Alaska came out, but after Katherines, I googled John. I was looking for the release date of his next book, and instead, found his YouTube channel with his brother, Hank.
I watched a few videos, and while I enjoyed them, I wasnāt really interested in YouTube at the time. Fast forward a few years, and Iām watching Charlie McDonnelās video about how excited he is to read Paper Towns, and as a subscriber of Charlieās, of course I went out and read it.
So after reading Paper Towns and Will Grayson, Will Grayson for the first time, and I read the author bio, which of course, mentions the Vlogbrothers channel. This time, when I go to YouTube, itās with the specific purpose of watching John and Hankās videos.
This time, I was hooked.
I subscribed, and came to look forward to watching their videos every week.
My freshman year of college (ā09/ā10) I started following John and Hank on twitter, and my sophomore year, while studying abroad and feeling particularly homesick, I started using Tumblr and following Hank and John there too.
When I got home, I started sharing The Vlogbrothersās videos with my friends. Iāve made friends in this community, and two years ago I actively participated in my first Project for Awesome. This past spring, I started sponsoring a charity that helps to break the cycle of poverty, starting with young women and girls. This coming winter, I intend to make my first Project for Awesome video about it, and all the incredible work they do.
Slowly, but surely, Hank and John, you have changed my life. Because of the amazing community you have fostered, I know Iām a more generous, more thoughtful person. Iāve learned to make a conscious effort to think of other people complexly, to be more giving and to tell the people that I love that I love them more often, even if itās hard.
DFTBA isnāt just a tag line or a sign off; itās a mission statement. Itās a promise to try and be the best version of yourself you can be, so you can help others be their best selves too. Itās a promise to decrease the suck in the world and to increase the awesome. Itās a promise that I try to embody every day. So Thank You, John and Hank, for being your best selves and inspiring us to be ours. And never, ever forget to be awesome.

An Abundance of Katherines by John Green
When I first tried to read this book in 2016, it bored me, I must admit. It was four years ago and I didnāt really know much about heartbreak or math. Now, in 2020, this novel was heartfelt, hopeful, and outstanding.
It was a light read that truly had the power to make you feel good. It was incredibly well-written, not that Iām surprised, having read multiple books by John Green previously.Ā
What was truly fascinating was the addition of math to this plot, the explanations at the end of the acknowledgments. The attention to detail that the author has while creating this new world is extraordinary. He knows what he is doing, even though he admits he isnāt very good at math.Ā
The main character, Colin Singleton, whose name is rather hilarious, is a former child prodigy, but pre-genius. He is insecure, which is easily detected by his constant need to be told that he is smart and that he will become a genius. He is completely self-absorbed, until the end of the novel. He doesnāt really know how to act with everyone else in his life, especially any of the eighteen Katherines he had dated.Ā
He is a sweet and romantic teenager, but ultimately his insecurities tend to ruin most of his attachments to other people, something that I personally find relatable. This novel depicts a boy who doesnāt know what friendship truly is, who doesnāt know how to act and what to say. He somehow seems oblivious to the rest of the world and its interests.Ā
Colinās best friend, Hassan, is great. Honestly, he is comedically perfect in most situations, especially when he finds out Katrina is cheating on him. He always finds a way to make everyone laugh. His rhetoric seems religious, but he isnāt the perfect Muslim heād like to be. In all honesty, he shows the amount of hypocrisy that is present in each human being, whether they know it or not.Ā
Lindsey is a strong female character and I loved her. The fact that she wasnāt a trophy to be earned was fantastic. She had just as many insecurities as Colin, but they just manifested themselves differently. She was emotional when necessary and calculating when not. Her intelligence never failed and she was honest which is a quality to be admired.Ā
The plot of the story was well thought out and perfectly portrayed. The setting of the novel was well chosen, a small town in rural America, showing a complex side of what most people think is the land of racism and country music.Ā
I found this book enlightening and insightful. It was a great read and Iām glad I picked it out of my bookshelf and gave it a second chance.Ā

1)
Itās January, so I suppose everyone is stuck in theirĀ āNew Year, New Meā mode, but I donāt get that. Why do you have to change every year? It doesnāt make sense to me...
I know I change every year, I change every day practically, to be honest, but it has nothing to do with the New Year. Itās got everything to do with the fact that Iām alive. Everybody changes.Ā
Maybe itās just people saying theyāre going to be better this year. I donāt know....Why do you have to wait for the year to start over to decide to be better?
Regardless, since itās officially January 4, 2017, nearly 2AM, I decided Iām gonna tell you about myself. And since no one is following me, I donāt have any trouble saying this stuff.Ā
I am 19 years old. I graduated high school last June from being homeschooled. I had hoped to go to college at Covenant College, but when my parents told me Iād have to pay for it all on my own, it wasnāt a possibility for me, due mainly to it being very expensive.
I donāt have a job, though Iāve been trying really hard to get one, no one seems to want to hire me. I would take almost anything at this point.Ā
I am 5ā²8ā³-ish, I have burgundy hair at the moment, but my natural color is the closest you can get to Crayola crayon brown. My eyes are blue I guess, and I have freckles. Iām not comfortable with my looks or the rest of my physical appearance, so Iām not going to talk much about that.Ā
Instead, Iāll tell you that I like music and words (I tried coming up with a better way to say that, but thatās as close as I can get). I have a very particular taste in music. It has to be good. This is harder to find than you might think. Good music is an opinion, I understand, but my opinion of good music is songs that donāt repeat the same phrase six times in a row.Ā
But then you canĀ look on my iPod and see that I have pretty bad music on there.Ā
I like books. The only book Iāve ever read that I didnāt like wasĀ āFrankensteinā by Mary Shelly, and Iām not sure if I could explain to you why I didnāt like it. I take pride on the amount of books on my bookshelf, and I honestly havenāt read them all. But who as honestly?Ā
The last three books I read: 3. Looking For Alaska by John Green (For the second time) 2. Harry Potter and the Cursed Child by J.K. Rowling 1. Taliesin by Stephen R. Lawhead
Looking for Alaska is my favorite of the John Green books on my shelf (which is four: LFA, TFIOS, Paper Towns, and An Abundance of Katherines) though itās probably not as good as the others.Ā
I got The Cursed Child for Christmas from my sister along with the screenplay for Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, and Iām struck with the feeling of disliking toward the plot. I liked more, I think, that there was a new story out for the world I would like to abide in. The plot wasnāt really that great and the characterĀ development was shabby, to be honest. I did like Draco and Scorpius quite a bit.Ā
Taliesin was also a Christmas present from a friend because he liked the Pendragon Cycle and I told him Iād read it eventually. So I guess heād figured heād just buy it for me. These are the best sort of presents in my opinion -- ones that your friends or family give you because they think youāll enjoy them as much as they did -- and I was more than happy to read it as soon as I got it. Itās become one of my favorites, and Iām glad I read it even though it took me quite a while to get through it.Ā
I donāt know if that list gives a look inside my interests, but itās a pretty obscure list of books of you know what at least two of them are.Ā
Right now Iām reading a book calledĀ āAll the Bright Placesā by Jennifer Niven -- in fact, I stopped mid-chapter to sit down and do this -- and so far itās good. Itās pretty predictable as itās a YA fiction book. I can relate to the characters in the sense that I have lost my ability to write anything good like Violet, and just the way Finch functions seems to be the same way I function. Iām not suicidal or anything. I donāt seriously think about dying, though I do catch myself wondering if it mattered if I did keel over right where I was, but then the moment passes and I go on with my life.Ā
Which is pretty boring, to be honest, but thatās not important right now.What is important is that absolutely no one is going to read this and if you do, you wonāt make it all the way to the end because you got bored reading nonsense that has nothing to do with anything.
And that is the most hilarious thing to me. Maybe Iāll talk about something more important tomorrow...
Like how I spent this entire article (if you can call it that....probably not, though) listening to Act 1: The Lake South, The River North by The Dear Hunter (Which my sister gave to me for my birthday on vinyl) because itās the most beautiful thing I've ever heard.Ā
Probably not, though.....Ā
