This poem is the distilled essence of everything Nerds, Geeks, Otaku, Comic lovers, Fantasy and Science Fiction fans, LARPers, Tabletop and Online Roleplayers, Anime fans, Writers, Creators, and Dreamers Are, Stand For, and Believe. This is who we are. And we are not afraid anymore. I was in the third row for this. And to me, this girl is someone who should be looked up to. She has put everything we are into words. And she has done so perfectly. Thank you. From all of us.
Either THE best speech at CTCon this year, or a close second to the most adorable little girl in the Princess Tutu outfit at Masquerade. But being a nerd myself, +1 internet to you miss, whoever you are! Thanks for making all us Volunteers stop and cheer!
best part of the masquerade, this girl was definitely my favorite person of the whole con. mad props for being confident enough to say what everyone knows is true
@KeyMakerAlchemist thank you so so much for your kind words! though i dont believe i am someone to look up to i am honnored that you think so. and also no thanks nessicerry :) that's the message i was trying to send, love yourself. if you feel alone and scared because you're different dont because there are people out there just as messed up and as weird as you that will love you for who you are. I'm just glad people liked it.
i gotta admit, when spock announced she was gonna read a poem i got prepared for something lame. a few minutes later, my mind (and the minds of the other attendees) was blown
@rpgfan12 thank you! after this i was actually thinking about just reciting poems on youtube and like a seperate vid explaining them but idk if anyone would wanna see that >.
@Metallink128 The con staff taped the entire event, that I know of. I was working line control as the volunteer that day.You might try emailing to ask about it. I know other members have posted miscellaneous pieces of the event, but give it a week or so, someone else undoubtedly got it.
I didn't stay to see who won whatever, can someone tell me if she won any categories? She did a great job, and reminded me of a friend I used to have who did slam poetry. Grats.
