21st HEADLINE-So, What Are you?

Good day, Headliners! This post will be about "nerd" and "geek". The terms "nerd" and "geek" are often used interchangeably, but they are not the same. Both terms can be viewed as either endearing or pejorative depending on how they applied, by whom, and to whom. And there is always passion aplenty involved in the definition and application of either term. But here, what I'm gonna post is about........another tote bag!*yay*. Yeah there is no correlation between my introduction and thing I'm gonna post, I know... lol. Alright, here we go! 



another "slempi" tote bag from @NgaaaNgaaa collection. Slempi means selempang in Bahasa Indonesia (slung bag)

this is the closer look


"so, what are you? geek/nerd?"

overall appearance

Black Hat by unknown (bought at Bandung Indah Plaza)
Dark Blue T-Shirt by Armani
Tote Bag by @NgaaaNgaaa Collection
Chino Pants still by PaperSmooth (available at Widely Project, Bandung)
Wrist Watch by Calvin Klein
Shoes by I-Don't-Know-The-Brand (gift from my girlfriend)


In the ongoing battle between geek and nerd, one must take sides, but how can this be done without a solid argument from both sides? It's time to lay the cards on the table and to have yourself in front of a mirror to determine which is better and answer the question some fear to know:
are you a geek or a nerd?

P.S: These photos were taken by my friend, Saraswati, photographer of Parasastra. Thanks to you, lady! :D

It's funny how nerd and geek have became fashion phenomenons, as in my youth they were more insults, meaning boring outcasts ;)
However, I am both. Nerd, as I wear glasses (bad sight) and use PC for long time everyday, also for work, and geek, since I watch sci-fi and collect Star Wars-related items.. ;)
You got a nice blog ^^
