1. MUSIC: I love Jason Gray! Not only is he a great guy, but his music totally jams! Overall, his tunes are pretty chill while still praising God. Some of my fave songs of his include: "Blessed Be", "Grace", and "Move". And you can find most, if not all, of these on Grooveshark! :) I love listening to him while I read.

2. NEW BOARD GAME: Last Word! Played this at a New Years' Eve party and loved it! I'm a word person, so I thought it was a lot of fun! (It probably didn't hurt that I won...) :) Basically, you draw a category and a letter, and then push the button on a timer-ish thing. (really specific, I know) Everybody gets to now yell out whatever they can think of that starts with that letter in the category. The timer goes off randomly, and whoever said the last item that qualifies, wins that category and moves up a space on the board. Whoever reaches the end first, wins! Yay!

3. VIDEO GAME CONSOLE: I love the Wii. We don't have one in our household, but I love playing at friends' houses. "Now, Emily," you might say, "isn't that kind of anti-social? Or maybe even rude??" I understand where you're coming from! But if you play the right group games, every one can have a blast dancing or playing away!

4. WII GAME: Now that we've discussed the Wii, I'd like to introduce you to a fun game! I admit my Gleek -ness. (Gleek= Glee geek; lover of the show Glee) I love music; I love singing. I HATE true karaoke... It's just not my thing. Singing all alone with just bare accompaniment and without loads of preparation in front of lots of strangers? I'll pass. But... singing just in front of friends with your friends from McKinley High that you enjoy looking up on Youtube and singing on the radio (and in the shower)?? Sure!!! My friends and I had so much fun! P.S.: I totally own "Taking Chances". I doubt you could beat me, but I'd agree you might have a chance at tying. :)

5. NEW BOOK: Longing by Karen Kingsbury!!!!! I was sooooooo excited to get this!! A. I love Karen Kingsbury! B. I love the Bailey Flanigan series because she's only a couple years older than I am. C. Bailey Flanigan was inspired by Mrs. Kingbury's own daughter Kelsey. So cool!! D. I enjoy reading books that others read too. I love sharing about what I love in a book without spoiling it! If you have never read a Karen Kingsbury novel, I totally suggest you start with the Redemption series. It sparks so many of her series! Happy reading! :)

6. FORM OF COMMUNICATION: I <3 Skype. I recently had a super long conversation with a best friend from another state for free. I love those words, too. I can even call from my laptop in my room to the home computer in the office if I need my mom or sister (who both use the home computer the most out of the four of us here). 

This is just a fun sharing of things I've been up to within the past week!
