I know I haven't been posting recently, and I apoligise for that. I've decided that I'm going to make a few changes around here. One of the main ones is the frequency of my posts. I used to blog every single day, but recently I've found that hard. So, now, instead of posting every day, I'm just going to post once or twice a week. I think that will suit me better, and that way I think my posts will be better too. It's just a bit of a trial, I'll try it out for a while and see if I like it, if I do I'll keep it like that, if I don't then I'll try something different.
I'll still be doing a Quote Of The Week every Monday though.
One of the main reasons for this change is a lack of motivation. I've really been struggling to think of good things to blog about lately, so that's where you can help. If you have any ideas for an interesting topic that I could blog about, I'd love to hear it!! It could be anything, it could be some thing you've experienced or a lesson that you learnt. It could be a tutorial on how to bake a cake or do your nails, it could be absolutely anything. So if you have any ideas, you can tweet me at @UrbanNerd_ or leave a comment below. Or, if you have an idea but you don't really want people to know that it was from you, I have an email address for this blog that you can send it to. Just ask me for it and I'll be happy to tell you.

You've Got To Be In It To Win It!
The other day there were these people on A Current Affairs that were just talking about winning competitions. They entered every single competition that they saw, and gave us some tips on how to win things. For some reason I found this very interesting, and I immediately got out my iPod and wrote down these notes. There wasn't many, but I thought I'd share them with you anyway!
-When entering a competition where you have to send in your entry by mail, use a small envelope!
-When entering a competition where you have to send in your entry by phone or text, send in your message right on 12 o'clock in the afternoon. Right on the dot! They just said that for some reason this is the luckiest time of the day.
So this got me thinking, have you ever been lucky enough to win a competition? What is the best thing you have ever won? Drop me a comment below or tweet me at @UrbanNerd_!
My favourite thing that I have ever won would probably be The Hunger Games poster that I won last month, I wrote about it here.
There's also this competition going on at the moment and the prize is absolutely SPECTACULAR! I haven't entered yet but I'm really excited too, and I know I probably won't win, but YOU'VE GOT TO BE IN IT TO WIN IT!
Hope this helped just a tiny bit.

Racism, Really?
Something that I absolutely hate is racism. Why does it matter what colour someone's skin is, or what country they originate from? How does that make them a bad person? How does that make it right for you to judge them?
Everyone's different, different hair, different eyes, different interests, different house, different clothes, different family, different skin. Who cares? That's what makes the world interesting. Imagine how boring it would be if everyone was the same! It's like if I came up to you and teased you because you have blonde hair or green eyes.
So before you judge someone because of their skin colour, or their race, or their accent, talk to them! Chances are you could learn something about them, about their home country, anything!
Never judge, never hate, be you, be great.

Bad Lip Reading
Yesterday all these people were talking about some Bad Lip Reading thing. I had absolutely no idea what they were on about, until someone showed me this video..
THIS IS ONE OF THE FUNNIEST THINGS I HAVE EVER SEEN.
Now, whether you're a Hunger Games fan or not, your sure to love it. What they've done, is gotten scenes out of the movie and done funny voice over sort or things. It is so good! But it's really clever, it actually looks like that's what they say. It's really hilarious.
I suggest you watch it all and also check out some of their other things on YouTube, Bad Lip Reading. Plus they've got a Facebook and a Twitter!
Yay, a goat.
