It's 7:30 here. Which isn't early at all for me, but it is for some people. I forgot to blog last night, but that doesn't really matter because the only interesting thing that happened was that in the morning it was four degrees above freezing and we won 1-0 in soccer.
I was just going to say nothing interesting has happened today, but it's Halloween, so that must count for something. Happy Halloween! Anyways, today is going to be fun because my uncle and cousin are coming to my house. And we're going on a hike (which is really fun with my uncle and cousin). I just hope it won't be too cold or exauhst me for tonight when I go to trick-or-treating.
What this blog is: Many, many letters strung together to make words that make sentences that make paragraphs that make blog posts. Usually it's just a girl named Lilyflower rambling on about her life and some other things occasionally. Whether you decide to keep reading or not is your choice. She hopes you make a wise one.

This Post Is About Several Things
I'm terrible at titling things, aren't I?
Anyways, today was Halloween day in school. It was fun. I was a detective. Oh, and Jenn, if you're reading this, can you bring my glasses-thingies to school on Monday? Anyways, lots of people were lots of different things.
And I had two quizes/tests. The math one was ridiculously easy, and the science one wasn't bad.
For all you people who don't know me (aka no one) I take sewing. We're making quilts, and I'm really close to finishing mine. All I have to do is finish hand-sewing my label on. I hate hand-sewing. It's slow, and boring. Yuck. But once I finish it I'll be all done with my quilt. Yay!
And I had soccer tonight. One word to sum it up: cold. It was freezing. I couldn't feel my fingers at all. And tommorow's 9am game is going to be cold too. -.- But it's my last game, so I have to go to it. Yuck.

Mile Run. Yay.
So I ran *coughwalkedmostofthewaycough* the mile run today. Before I ran I decided I needed some motivation or other to make me run fast. So I decided to pretend that a bear was behind me chasing me. It turns out, I'm not that afraid of bears, seeing as I walked a good deal of the way. Yeah. If only I had pretended it was a Komodo Dragon. Those are pretty terrifying. But I passed, which is all that matters. So, yay? Well, at least Halloween Day is tomorow. That'll be fun.
Haha, when I went to spellcheck this, it was still set on Spanish from my last post, and highlighted most of the words. Whoops.

Spanish
So, I'm on this website (and a few others), and kind of bored. I'm also doing my Spanish homework. It has inspired me to turn the language to Spanish, and to write one of my blog posts in Spanish (don't worry, I'll translate it to English. Oh, and forgive me if I don't have proper accents, they don't work on my computer).
Hola. Me llamo Lily. Me gusta helado, porque es delisioso. No me gusta tarea. Yo tengo una hermana menor. Ella es loca, porque no le gusta helado de chocolate. Me gusta hablo en esponol, pero es un poco dificil. En el fin de semana me gusta leer, jugar futbal, y toco el piano. No me gusta correr. Me gusta jugar con los globos. Me gusta el sol porque no es frio. No me gusta el frio. Adios.
Translation: Hello. My name is Lily. I like ice cream, because it is delicious. I don't like homework. I have a younger sister. She is crazy because she doesn't like chocolate ice cream. I like to talk in Spanish, but it's a bit hard. On the weekend I like to read, play soccer, and play piano. I don't like to run. I like to play with balloons. I like the sun because it isn't cold. I don't like the cold. Bye.

Tooth Stuff
So, I got my braces off today. It hurt a bit, but not much. And now I have a retainer, which everyone thinks is Invisaline. It kind of feels like a mouth guard. I have to wear it all the time except when I eat and brush my teeth. Yay.
I think the rest of this post will just be random color stuff.

Ha, I Almost Forgot About This Blog
So, I have absolutlely nothing to blog about. But will that stop me from blogging? No, it won't. And this will probably be a rambing post. Or maybe I'll play mind games with you.
Is your mind voice normal? Doesyourmindvoicereadthisfaster? Is this faster too? D o e s y o u r m i n d
v o i c e r e a d t h i s v e r y s l o w l y ? YOU READ THIS FIRST, DIDN'T YOU? IF YOU DID, SAY THAT IN THE COMMENTS. Does this seem really quiet? Is this louder? WHAT ABOUT THIS?Does this seem like I'm editing? Does this seem important? Or a title? I wonder what this does? Oh, hey, I figured out how to change colors. This is really cool, right?
Well, bye.
Edit: That didn't work, there was colors, but it got messed up. Sorry.

Halloween And All That Goodness
So today I decided that I needed to find a Halloween costume for school right this very second, and if I didn't I'd explode. I didn't feel like buying a costume, because that would require me to either go to a store, or buy it off the internet and not get it on time. So I dug through my basement to try to find a costume.
Unfortunatly, there was only bits and pieces to random costumes. And there was this really pretty costume, but it was way too small on me. I should have known, seeing as I wore it when I was five. After that I decided to Google homemade halloween costumes to see if I could find something.
After looking without finding anything for what felt like five hours, I went back down to my basement and worked on my puzzle. My sister came downstairs (she was also looking for a costume for school) and showed me a dress that she found so she could be Barbie. "WHERE ON EARTH DID YOU GET THAT‽‽‽" I screamed/asked her. It was in the attic! So I raced up to the attic in hopes of finding a costume for myself. I found a few of my grandmother's old suits and thought maybe I could be someone from the 50's, but I wasn't quite satisfied with that.
And then, I found THE PERFECT TRENCHCOAT! It even had leather gloves in the pockets. So I'm being a detective. Yay!
So, after that, my sister and I decided that we would ghost her friend.
(For all who don't know what ghosting is, it's where you fill a paper bag with candy and put a paper ghost in it. You put it on the doorstep of someone in your neighborhood, ring the doorbell and run and try to make sure they can't figure out who it's from. The person who recieved the bag has to put the paper ghost on their front door so everyone knows they've been ghosted and then has to ghost two other people in the neighborhood. If you're doing this for the first time in your neighborhood, it works best to give the person you're ghosting instructions so they don't think the candy is poisonus and call the cops. Although, they may still call the cops if they catch you and don't know whats going on.)
Anyways, my sister decided she didn't want to do the running part, and my mom was driving the getaway car, so I had to do it. Of course, I was expecting it, because that's how it always works. So we put on black clothes and drive to my sister's friend's house. (Note: We didn't actually have to drive there, but it works best if you have a getaway car.) I quietly open the car door and sneak out of it with the bag of candy. I try to walk as quietly as possible down there driveway. I'm about halfway to the front door, when I hear a bark. It's their dog, and it won't shut up! I figure that by then, my cover is blown, so I speedwalk to the door, ring the doorbell, and sprint as fast as I can to my car. While I'm sprinting, I'm terrified I'm going to run into a tree, because it was dark and a bit difficult to see. But I was fine, and all went well. It was awesome.
(Another note: The thing on the end of the sentence ""WHERE ON EARTH DID YOU GET THAT" is an interrobang. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interrobang)

A Rant About My Evil Internet And How I Think My Parents Are Out To Get Me
So, my Internet stopped working. And I couldn't fix it. At all. I tried many different ways and many different times. And usually it works if I just re-plug it in. But it didn't. And I was annoyed. I was home alone, bored out of my mind, and my Interwebs were broken. So I went to look for the TV remote, because I really needed some back round noise. But I couldn't find it. So, I looked for my sister's book that I've been secretly reading when she's not home, but that was no where to be found either. I had just finished my book, so I had nothing to read at all. So I settled to talking to my goldfish.
I love how Flint always listens to me, and never argues. It's awesome. It would be soooooo much better if the rest of the people in the world turned into goldfish, and I was the only human. Or maybe I'd be some other type of fish. Fish are much better than people.
So, anyways, I think my parents had something to do with the Internet, because right as they were leaving they told me not to go on the Internet. And when I tried it, it wouldn't work, but when my parents came back, it started working again. Coincidence? I think not.

This Pathetic Post Doesn't Deserve A Title.
I'm in Spanish class. I finished the project early. Soooooo bored. I didn't blog last night because all I would've said was "It's Thursday. I hate Thursdays. Thursday is horrible and never fun. The end." I'm in a better mood now. Because it's Friday, which is much better than Thursdays.
So yeah. I really don't know what to write about. Maybe I should write about how scary faeries can be. They can be very scary. Very, very scary.
Did I already write about how I need to learn Arabic so I can go to Egypt? I forget, and I'm too lazy to save this and go back and look. Well, if I didn't tell you, now I did.
Now I'm just kind of rambling on about whatever pops into my brain. How much fun. Whee.
I think I'm done now. Bye.

Boring Assembly and Field Hockey
Well, lots of things happened today. Namely, the really boring assembly on schools and field hockey.
The assembly was about different schools that we can go to next year. The second one was interesting, but only because I could go to Egypt, and I suddenly decided that I REALLY wanted to go there. So I've decided that I need to learn Arabic. Whether I end up going to the school to learn Arabic, or learn it on my own, I need to learn it. It's so pretty looking too! And while I'm at it, I may as well finish up Spanish and do Chinese. And I'm being sooooo horribly unrealistic with this, but maybe I'll be able to learn all three?
Now onto field hockey. I can sum it up with one word: cold. I was stupid enough to think that I could wear shorts and a t-shirt only, and that I didn't need my sweatshirt. Could I have been more wrong? At one point I was really worried I was getting Hypothermia. And a message to my fellow field hockey teammates and anyone else really: You do not swing a field hockey stick like you would with a golf club. That can take out an eye. Hence, the reason we wear goggles. But still, don't do it. Someone on my team got hit with a ball from someone swinging like that right in the chest and it knocked the wind out of her. Not fun.
So, that was my day. Well, some of it. Bye.

Titles Are Stupid
So, I suppose I should tell you about things I did today, or in my life, or whatever. And maybe I will. But not today. Today I shall be blogging about my fish. That's right, my fish.
I have a fish named Flint. Well, that's his official name. At home we just call him Fishy. He's a goldfish. He's a bit of a chubby goldfish. When I got him, he was really small, but he doubled in size. Either they underfed him at the pet store (Or wherever he came from. I got him at a school fair, so I really don't know) or I overfeed him. Or maybe both. Anyways, I started putting him on a diet, because I'm afraid he might explode. And that would be very bad. He now gets two regular meals a day of his smelly fish food.
Now my fish is a pretty smart little fish. He knows when it's feeding time. He goes up to the top of the bowl and sticks his head up, practically begging me to feed him. When I walk over and takes out his food he swims up to the side of the bowl, as close as he can get to me without going through the bowl. When put his food in he circles the bowl, making sure no one else will steal his food. He swims really fast, as if going faster will make sure no one can get to it. Then, he goes up and eats his food. He darts up to the top and bites and then swims down to finish chewing. He repeats this process until all of the food is gone.
And that is my fish Flint.

Hello there.
Uh, hi. I'm Lilyflower. Or Lily. Whichever you prefer. I'm not sure why I really got this blog, so we'll see if this is the only post I ever write. So, hello world!
I guess I may as well tell you about myself.
I'm a teenager who likes wasting time on the internet. I play piano and absolutely love it. Reading is awesome, and I do a lot of it. I like the Sci-fi/Fantasy genres best. My favorite colors are purple and green. My favorite bands- wait, I'm not going to list those. That'll take too long.
So this is me.
