Summary

Celebrate your all-out geekery with your very own journal! Did you finally figure out that calculation for String Theory? How did you feel about the Doctor's latest regeneration? What superpower would you most love to have? Did you find a hack in the latest video game? You can put it all in one place!

And, if you're not sure what to write in your Nerd Journal, Julie Huffman and Jenavieve Brown have peppered this 128-page, hardcover journal with some of the greatest science facts, jokes, and more!

- Why can't you trust atoms? They make up everything

- At room temperature, there are only two liquid elements. These are bromine and mercury.

- The only letter in the English alphabet not used on the periodic table is J. The letter q only appears in the symbol for the placeholder name for element 114, ununquadium, which has the symbol Uuq. When element 114 is officially discovered, it will be given a new name.

So think about your passions, obsessions, brainstorms, and inventions. Write them down, because some day, we might find your Nerd Journal and put it in a museum, smarty pants!
