respect the geek :) (Score 1)

I face geek ridicule and probable insults to write that i am not a geek. Actually geeks fascinate and terrify me at the same time. They command respect. as a non-geek, the thought of doing computer science at college scares me, a lot. I was thinking of economics and comp. sciences.... sorry, i digress. u being someone who's a geek and been to college- may i ask;if i do do comp. sciences will i be ok? By that i mean will everyone else be scary geeks? don't get me wrong, i think geeks are the most powerful people in this e-commercing, internet-surfing, computer reliant world. And as i said before they fascinate me, they're like some unknown life form... obviously not, but... its probably because i don't know any... my friends are more the latin, english, arts type people. they are undoubtedly v.v.smart, but not geeks. my love for geeks bewilders them :) and my passion(my language is perhaps stronger than my actions) for computers confuses them equally :)
how would u define a geek?
i bid u goodbye with much trepidation, and hope in my heart for a swift and reassuring reply :)
PS- before u start debating my sexuality i am ... wait for it...a girl. :)
