Am I a Nerd? [1° Año Medio A]


Yeahhhhh, big deal. reading on Monday might, I was wondering what's the definition of "nerd". At first, I thought being a nerd was a sort of friki who plays videogames all day long. Nevertheless, it is kind of different. It's related to someone who is "intelligent, good student and soon" and the only fault of this stereotype of person is just not having any social communication whatsoever.

 Based on this definition, are you a nerd? is it a bad term? are you agree with this lifestyle?

Regards and remember to post in at least 50 words

  1. I think I’m not a nerd, because I hardly ever play videogames and I always have social communication, with my friends. I’m not very intelligent but I try study, and usually I’m a good student ._.
    It’s not a bad term, be a nerd is not bad, once you know them, they are nice friends. They are different, and try to show how they are really; perhaps they usually don’t have social communication, but this is because no one accepts them.

  2. In my understanding, I'm not a nerd, because I always spoken to other people I'm very sociable. I think I'm not good student, because I hardly ever I get good grades in the school but I always I make my best effort :).
    For my the term "nerd" is not bad, because get good grades, etc. besides is bad, because not have many friends.

  3. Well the truth is that I do not think be nerd I am nerd completely because despite I am intelligent I have not problems of communication with other people.
    I do not believe being a nerd is a bad because is not bad being smart, But what is wrong is that you may not have communication with the rest of the people and I believe that this happens because the people who are more intelligent are disturbed and that is what makes them do not communicate with others, well, that is my opinion.

  4. I'm not a nerd, I have social communication, but I like so much the nerd, because are very intelligent and I think are good peoples. I think that discriminate much a nerd , maybe because they are better at some things than others, but do not think it a bad term to be nerd. c:
    Yes, I like the lifestyle of the nerd, but I don't like that not having any social communication, must be boring to have not friends.

  5. i'm sure i am not a nerd, because i have a social communication, i have a lot of friends and videogames aren't the center of my life.

    i don't think is a bad term, because it defines them, and if they are confortable with their style, is ok with me.

  6. From my point of view I’m not nerd, although play around videogames as DOTA, but really I have social life, besides I’m studious but I also fall. I do athletics, I’m in the marching band where we exactly a parade on May 12 by The Navy Day.
    But for me the nerds are no different from us as to who is not as crazy as to study for a test or playing a video game from time to time as it is something common that would make any.

  7. I think I'm not a Nerd, because I have social comunication. Generally, the nerds are bothered because they are so much intelligents, that is the reason because they dont have some comunication, and always are study,do something alone, play videogames all the day, or always have the best qualification in the class. Sometimes, a nerd is the person who read so much hours, i do this, but I do some things in my day.

  9. From my point of view I'm not a nerd, I have many friends with whom I can share. I'm not a good student because I have low grades so far but I always put my effort for the school.
    But for me the nerd are different, I think they are less social because they study or play video games all day and rarely go out with friends.

  10. Hello, Teacher.

    Mmm, good question, but I think the word nerd is someone than is more intelligent and more concerned of studies, but I agree with this lifestyle, although is very interesting, I prefer other lifestyles. For some the term NERD is as something stupid, because they think that people are very ugly and intelligent. Although I think isn't since they think. Now I am a nerd?... No,no,no i am a not a nerd, I am a intelligent, but I prefer play in my PS3 or practise with my keyboard or go out with my friends or parents, for this I am a not a nerd.

    Good bye teacher and good weekend

  11. Nerd to me, is an approach that designates a type of person entirely doomed to the study and scientific work, computer and intellectual to the point of showing disinterest in social activities, physical and deportivas.1 Unlike an intellectual, scientific or regular engineer, the nerd stereotype is of someone with obsessive behavior for these activities to the point limit your participation in other fields.

  12. Well I do not think being a nerd by the fact that I am very social with people around me play with my friends and I do not think it divertida.Pero for me to go wrong or I do well is a nerd I think they are so because they are more timid and are not sociable I think is not bad if I had friends nerd and are the best that one can have are those who most appreciate you :)

  14. I think for me the term "nerd" is not wrong if I do not think it's a nerd because I'm usually not good to study and read books and am friendly with my friends and with people who share and do not like being locked in home with my computer! be nerd is not bad!

  15. I personally took a very active social life, I have many friends and go out very often I think in part it is a term that refers to a person with no social life does not mean being too nerdy or have good grades or playing video games is not it teacher? but personally I think it is a term poorly expressed, not according to the definition I'm not agree with this definition the term nerd good ending to veses is misinterpreted.

  16. Based on the definition, i think i´m not a nerd, cause i´m not a good student and son. Also i have a great social life cause i talk with all the class and obviously with my friends. This term is not bad cause this can be good for you future, for example: having good ratings, you can entry to the university with much benefits. i agree with this lifestyle cause, everyone can be whatever he wants and not to be criticized.

  18. I'm not a nerd, since I have good social communication, I have good grades but I make the effort to achieve and what the nerd is so highly intelligent people who can spend hours and hours reading a book or studying, I do not like they treat these people just because they are more scholars. I think is not bad be a nerd should only have social communication.

  20. from my point of view i`m not a nerd, because i don`t have excellent notes, also have a good social communication, but i like too much the videogames and use the computer everyday.

    i think the word "nerd" is for the people who are very studious although they have friends.

  21. I`m not think nerd because for me the nerd are npeople who maybe have always had excellent notes or the firts position all and what more the characterized is that they have not friends or almost nothing and talking to few people, spending most of the time alone.
    That is why I`m not characterized by a nerd, because I have friends and I have not problems in communicating with the other.

  23. I do not consider myself a nerd, because I have a good social communication. I like to share with my friends.
    For me the term nerd has good things and bad things. The good is they have so much knowledge they have good grades. But the trouble is that usually spend hours locked in their rooms without having communication with their family and friends.

  24. oh well, acording with the post, maybe i am, but just 'cause i'm so shy and it's so hard for me meeting new people, it scares me or something (but just for a while, then i get comfortable) and 'cause i like to play videogames a lot haha, but with the being smart thing... i'm very silly and lazy to study, i don't really like to do that, i prefer sleep or do some funny thing. And if i was a nerd... i wouldn't care, i don't find being a nerd is bad or wrong, i found out the most of people like that is nice and help you with some homeworks and stuff. BUUUUT nerd it's kind of a new "style" that most of teenagers follow, like those big glasses that the girl has in the pic that you post! it doesn't mean she's a real nerd, 'cause now, the people create some new styles, just like this one, so for me, nerd it's a word that can define a person, and a style that most of the teenagers are following! xx

  26. A nerd from my point of view, it is almost always a young person that is slow in some senses or loser as you want to say. I think that this evil say nerd only because there are people who are a bit stupid in some respects because in the end we are all people and we must respect. But if I agree that there are people other than us but in a sense i like nerd i dubbed itself, in that i am a little slow in some sports such as volleyball.

  27. I do not consider myself a nerd, because I am quite active socially & share with friends.
    Nor find being nerd is bad, just find it boring.
    From my point of view we must respect all walks of life but I disagree because the nerd cooperation could socialize more and not enclosed or isolated in their world.
    I think the term nerd que is misinterpreted, because now the nerd called up are good students.
    In closing I would like my only say that we must organize to have a good social and communication while being a good student.

  28. From my point of view I am not nerd, because I never play the video games, I am a good students, I always have social communication are my friends and peers.

    I think nerd is more discriminated against to study hard and their dress and how to express.
    Nerd not accept them in groups that have formed, being different.
