Fortune Cookies
We went to this buffet, Best Buffet (Thats the name, I'm not saying it was like the best buffet ever, but it was good) and when we were done the waitress brought us fortune cookies.
My dad opened his, and their was no fortune in it! Absolutely none. Then my mom opened her fortune cookie, and her fortune said "You are about to be in a new relationship. You will be blessed" So my mom turned to my dad and said "I guess I'm leaving you since you have no fortune." It was really funny at the time.
On an other note, the weathers been really good lately, so I finally got to start my garden.
I do square foot gardening, and I'm doing a bit of an odd size, 5X5. I've gotten the dirt all turned and tested and everything,and I used strings to mark off the square foots, and I've planted radishes, and transplanted lavender, hungarian wax peppers, and brussel sprouts. I plan to add lemon balm, tomatoes, kohlrabi, beets, marigolds, squash, green beans, chives, cucumbers and possibly liatris (also known as blazing star) But I'm thinking I might put the liatris somewhere else, since it gets so tall!
The weathers been so awesome, it got up to 75 today, so I washed my bed and hung out on the clothesline to dry. If the good weather keeps up I might be able to get my dad to help me finish the chicken yard, and then I can finally get some chicks!

Fire, Rain, wii, and evil plots
Today we burned a huge pile of branches, we stuck a bunch of bamboo like things in it and a bunch of old newspapers to make it burn, the fire got really huge, and my dad had to tell my cousin to back up so her hair wouldnt catch on fire.
After a bit it started to rain, so my 2 cousins and 2 brothers and I all got on the trampoline and started jumping, but sadly the rain stopped.
So we bounced for a while and played deadman and just had fun. Then we all went and took showers, to get the smoke smell and dirt off of us.
After a while we went and played the wii, I took a fitness test and I'm 31, seeing that I had previously been 72 I thought that was pretty good.
While we were playing we were planning these evil plots for this one guy, for now I'll just call him "Bob"
We don't like Bob, and wish he wasnt coming, so we made a bunch of silly plans, such as putting food dye in his shampoo.
So, we had a fun evening, and now I have to go.

Library
So today we went to the library, and found out they were having a book sale.
Paperbacks were 25 cents and hardcovers 50, or you could fill a bag for 4$
I got a few books, one by Gerald Morris, I just finished a book from the library by him, and I really liked it, so I was so excited to see that. Then I found one by Donna Jo Napoli, I've read "Hush" and "Daughter of Venice" both by her and both quite good.
Then I found another book, cant remember its title of who its by right now, and I found a book about Egypt, and one about the Middle East, and a Medieval Tales book, with beautiful artwork in it.
So, now I have to find a place to put those. I hope I can!
Well, Thats all for now.

My little brother
So, my little brother comes in from outside and he's all dirty with his hair all mussed up. He's holding a flash light in one hand a light saber in the other, he has a flashing pumpkin necklace and a weird orange dolphin thing around his neck, and he said "I'm a saliva-ist" and I thought what "do you spend your time spitting?" and then he laughed and said he was joking, that he was a "survivalist" he asked me if I would come out with him, I agreed, and he took me to the backyard. He told me to wear the flashing pumpkin necklace, so I wouldnt get lost. Then he held up his lightsaber "To kill the wilder beasts" and used his flash light to light up a path for me.
He took me out to this tree that has a target against it, and he had me shoot the bow and arrow a few times, I never got a bulls eye, but pretty close.
Then he took me to the tire swing, and made me push him, then he took me into the playhouse and we had a secret meeting with the flashlight from the roof. After a bit he escorted me back to the house.
It was a fun 10-15 minutes, and I loved the "Saliva-ist"

About me
I figured I should write about myself, so, here it goes.
1-I'm a 14 1/2 year old girl
2-I have Strawberry blond hair
3-I have brown eyes
4-I'm short for my age, sadly. I'm 5' 2"
5-My hair is really long, about to my waist and I dont plan on cutting it any time soon
That describes how I look, so heres what I'm like.
I like to juggle, I can juggle balls, beanbags, rings, clubs and other assorted items.
I can unicycle, and I can unicycle and juggle at the same time, oh yeah, I'm good.
I perform at Renaissances Faires, I've been a Fairy, and a Jester.
I LOVE to read, I have a Shelfari that I recently started (Shelfari is where you can make an online list of books you've read, if your on shelfari, look me up, I'm Emmalemmaly) and I already have 400 books on mine. And those are only books that I remember reading, I'm sure theres more that I cant remember.
I also like to do beadwork, I've sold some of my stuff, its how I paid for my unicycle.
Well, thats good for now, I have to go.
Emily

I dont know what to write about
Well, I'm not used to keeping a blog, so I'm not sure what to write about. I guess I'll just describe my day.
Well, I woke up and started reading instantly, and my cousin said "Wow, your reading already?" (Yes, I share a room with my cousin, actually, 2 of my cousins)
And then after a bit I got up and got dressed and ate breakfast, and then me and my mom went to my cousins church/school to go to "Yard Mart" in the gym they were having a HUGE sale, it was awesome.
I got a skirt, 3 t-shirts, a long sleeve brown velour shirt with orange leaf embroidery, and pair of awesome sandals, and some leather boots, we also got a shirt for my brother, several books, a small lap desk, and a couple other things, and we only spent 10$! I thought the leather boots were an especially great deal, being real leather and only 50 cents for the whole pair! I was so awesomely happy.
Then we went to wal-mart, and the checker was an old lady who tried to overcharge us for the onions we bought, it was very irritating, but I wont go into that.
Then when we got home, it was really nice out, so I jumped on the trampoline, and shot the bow and arrow, and tried to do chin-ups on the swing set. Then I juggled some and then I sat under a tree to read and cuddled the dogs.
Now, I'm sure I've bored you, so I'll go now.
