About Miss Geeky

Me

In January 2007 I moved to London and I started a blog to let my friends back home know what I was up to. I realized thouugh I mainly wrote about stuff I like, and a couple of months later MissGeeky was born.

I write about anything that’s interesting to me, which is pretty much anything geeky. I’ll often feature reviews, previews and trailers of movies, TV shows, video games and books.

I’m a 27 year-old Dutch-Australian Computer Science student living in London. I’m in the process of finishing my master thesis on Emotion Recognition (as in creating a computer system that can recognize human emotions in videos) and hope to be finished soon. I was born in the Netherlands (Dutch-Indonesian mother and an Australian father) and have lived from my 3rd to my 8th in Australia (the rest of time in the Netherlands).

Why am I Miss Geeky?
I’ve been geeky my whole life; I don’t think there has ever been a time that I didn’t see myself as a geek. Since the age of 6, I’ve been addicted to TV shows (my first geeky passion) and still follow at least 20 shows at a time. I love and am obsessed about movies, so much so that my friends call me a walking IMDB. I read a lot of fantasy books and I own more than 500 of them. I get easily hooked on video games; I’ve had my share of all-nighters playing on till daylight. So, is that geeky enough?
