nerdfighters

I just came across this definition of Nerdfighters in the online Urban Dictionary.

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Nerdfighter

Nerdfighters are "nerds that fight, usually against pupular people."

Fantastic.

sadly behind on my 23 things...

Well, I haven't had a moment to work on Learn & Play this week, so I will have to do some catching up next week. I am looking forward to playing around with Flickr since I haven't had a chance to.

I was thrilled to hear from several other CML Nerdfighters, including my doppelganger Christiana! Anyone going to see John Green for a "Night of Awesome" September 8th? I am going to try to make it, so let me know if you want to meet there.

Here's a link to the info:

Habits of Lifelong Learners

Well, here I am thinking about the seven and a half habits of highly successful lifelong learners and trying to decide which one is most difficult for me...

I think Habit 3: "view problems as challenges" is the one I struggle most with. It is easy to get frustrated when trying to learn new things and just give up - though I am getting better at it! I look forward to going through the Learn & Play @ CML program to stretch myself in new ways and maybe even learn a little bit about myself and how I learn best.

If nothing else, I anticipate that I will start to understand new ways of communication and social networking and be able to meet some of our more tech-savvy customers right where they are. I can't wait!
