Urprisesay…

I am currently downloading a program that Daniel got me for Christmas. It looks very interesting and I hope it isn’t too challenging or else it won’t be too much fun. But it should be fun in a puzzelly sort of way. I will probably not post this post until after I have played a few games of it and can give an opinion on the subject. Daniel is sitting next to me and I just said Thank you. The nice thing about getting presents from family members is that you don’t have to write Thank you notes. Still a bit more time until it is downloaded…

“Eryvay Unfay!” is the verdict. I am enjoying the new game immensely! It is rather fun but I have a feeling it will be time consuming and interesting. However it is very fun having something that you can waste time at, Neopets is very nice in that function. I suppose I should say something about content of the game, it is a game where you are trying to put… Here is the website link since I don’t feel like typing a description, Enigmo . You can download a demo there and it probably has other information and etc. on it. I have a feeling that etc. sounds very interesting when the computer reads it out loud. I have been listening to G.A.Henty books read by the computer and I am beginning to notice that some words are very interestingly pronounced. However I think I have typed enough and am now going to stop.

Oh, and there really isn’t such a words as “puzzelly” but I thought I would use it any way and I don’t think that the writers of dictionaries and scrabble word guides will mind my inventing a new word every once in a while providing I only use it on my website and improve my sentence structure so that every sentence won’t be accused of being a run-on such as this is.

A busy, full, productive day

Would not be complete with out a post. I have done a lot today, I’ve done some school, cleaned my room a little, raked leaves:(, ridden my bicycle, made 15,000 or so neopoints, and gotten quite a few more things done. It has been a very busy day and I will probably have more of them. I started school again today so there will probably be many post on the fact that I don’t like Geometry, Language, and Chemistry just as there were many posts on Algebra and Language a while ago. I don’t like doing school, cleaning, working and things like that but I know they need to be done and that I should try not to be so lazy and self centered but… New Years resolutions are very famous but I don’t think I’ll make any, and if I did they probably wouldn’t do much good. Any way since I can’t think of something hilariously funny, or even mildly amusing to write in closing I shall just close the post.

Shopping

This may be the latest I have ever written a post, and I have written posts late at night before. I should be asleep and I know I’ll be tired tomorrow but… I have trouble sleeping at night, especially when I am using my computer and have just gotten a new book that I am reading. We went after Christmas shopping and got two new comic books, one peanuts and the other dilbert. I also bought a new toy for me and in between the dilbert book, my computer, and playing I have managed to stay up to this late hour. I ate another piece of chocolate tonight and it was very good. Now I am going to stop typing and try to go to sleep.

ICE CREAM AND CHOCOLATE!!!

When every I want to emphasis something I often use both bold and italics. Any way I have just eaten a HUGE bowl of ice cream(I almost wrote “italics”) and it was as delicious as a lot of what I ate on the cruise, but not quite as good as some. John gave me a box of Sugar free chocolate and they are delicious!!! I enjoy eating desserts and candy and the fact that my Mom won’t let me eat sugar and many other things that are the prime ingredients in desserts makes me really really enjoy them when I get to eat them, whether legally(by permission of Mom) or illegally(Standing near the dessert area too long at parties or elsewhere and having my will power cave in and be beaten by my appetite.) Any way I have just enjoyed three chocolates and three bowls of ice cream and a lot of crackers, cookies and other delightful things I usually don’t eat during the past few days. I am hoping I don’t get sick (as happened about fifteen or twenty posts ago) from eating too much but I may not since I haven’t eaten as much as I could have and most of it was sugar free. AND tomorrow I am going after Christmas Sale shopping and I definitely want to be up and ready for that.

They are now opened…

The Great Christmas Presents of DOOM!!! And I really enjoyed it. Every one seemed to like what I gave them and every one gave me a present which is very good. Daniel’s present to me was “The American Girls Handy Book” which is about as big as “The Lord of the RIngs” and jammed with things. From Grandmother I got a red leather watch(not quite what I was expecting but still nice) and a book on Amy Carmichael. From the Diffies (we are currently dogsitting their dog) I got a lovely neckless and earring set. Form John I got a very fancy gold sword that is very very(i don’t know the word to describe it) but it is very nice and is going to be a nice addition to my sword collection. Maybe over my cabinets would be a good place to display them. From Andrew I got a box, and in the box was a mega clamp tied with a bow. Now knowing Andrew I looked further inside the box and found 3 twenties. Now that was REALLY nice of him. From John I also got a box of Chocolates and I am going to have a tough struggle not to eat too many of them. But Mom and Dad’s present was very nice, a check for three hundred dollars, very very nice. It will help me get my new laptop. Eowyn is not really wanting to video edit so I plan to buy the new Ibook G4. I still have a ways to go but I am getting there. Daniel plans to buy this computer when I get the new one and that helps some too. When I get the new one it will become Eowyn and this computer will become Daniels. So I don’t have to write anything unpleasant about any body for forgetting to give me a present. Except of course for Polly but I don’t think she was able to go shopping so….

Four or so more hours…

Until we open Christmas Presents. A few more have appeared and Andrew asked where the wrapping paper was, so that’s good. A surprise happened, there is a present from Daniel to me, but… He had given it to Mom to wrap for me TWO YEARS ago. Which makes me really, really wonder what it is… And I really wonder what is in a lot of the presents. Oh, I hope the time passes swiftly, I want to open Christmas presents soon!

TOMORROW CHRISTMAS PRESENTS WILL BE OPENED!!!

And I am looking forward to that event very much. I want to see what I am going to get, and play with what I got Andrew and have a very enjoyable time. It has been very difficult the past few days, I am not good at keeping secrets and I usually tell them very soon. But so far I haven’t told Dad what I got him, and all though everybody knows about the scarfs I made them they don’t really know about the presents I bought for them. Except Daniel, he knew it would be ink pens, but he will have a surprise inside his scarf. And I shall be very careful not to hint about what the surprise is, all though I will mention that there is something because he reads my post and he might feel slightly curious about what it might be. I myself am very curious about whether Daniel and Andrew will give me a present, you never know about Andrew, sometimes he is generous and sometime he isn’t. Daniel probably did something but I don’t know what and whether it has anything to do with Christmas Presents. Any way since I doubt I am making much sense and it is too late to write a Christmas Wish list for Daniel to read and since I have all ready hinted about green portraits of dead presidents and am also very certain that I probably won’t get any I shall close this post and hope it will amuse somebody.

Dresses, Swords, My Fair Lady, and Polly

That sounds like an interesting title! The first thing I am going to talk about is swords since I have one drawn and on my bed and I ought to put it away before it damages something. Of course I haven’t damaged anything with a sword yet which is good. I really like this particular sword that I have out, it is long and strait, very light wait, a little plain while still be elegant and striking, and it is overall very nice.

Dresses are next, or perhaps I should say sewing as today I sewed a beautiful white lace dress. The basis of the Dress was a white sheet and over it I used a great deal of lace and the effect is very lovely, I’ll have to take a picture of it and post it. It has puffed sleeves, princess seams, two tiers of lace on the very full skirt, and it is very lovely.

The reason I wanted to make it was because I had just seen “My Fair Lady” and I wanted a dress that would “fit” in with the dresses at the Ascot races. Well… White and black and a big hat was necessary and I soon found the white but I still haven’t decided on the black yet. As to a big hat… Well, cardboard isn’t the best material to use and what ever you are supposed to do to make a hat I was not doing. So I think I shall not make a big ridiculous hat after all, or at least not at this time. As to the rest of the movie, I would not mind throwing slippers at Henry Higgins and Mr. Dolittle is very incorrect in his morals and opinions. But I did enjoy the ball, the dresses, Eliza, the dresses, the sets, the dresses, the music, the dresses, and of course, the costumes. I really enjoyed the costumes as may be obvious.

Polly, I don’t think I have ever mentioned Polly before, which was very wrong of me because Polly is a very important person and has been for ten years or more. Polly is my bear, (Mine, Mine, Mine) and I am very fond of her. She is the only stuffed animal I have that I still play with almost every day and I usually sleep with every night. Sometimes she falls of the bed and I forget to pick her up but not very often. Yesterday was the first time I almost got made at her, I had just gotten a new game and I wanted to play it. Since none of my brothers were available I thought Polly would make an easy antagonist to beat, and was I wrong… She beat me!!! I know I can’t win all of the time but I do like winning none the less… Any way today we did a rematch and she almost won that, but I was playing my hardest and I just barely beat her. It was a very close match. Any way Polly is now back in full favor and despite the fact that she is currently pretending to be a pillow I am very, very fond of her. And I have a feeling that we will play many more games together.

Christmas is coming! We get to open Christmas Presents on Wednesday, currently the only presents beneath the tree are from my Grandmother, my brother John, and myself. I’ve jokingly told a few friends that if Daniel and Andrew forget to give me anything I will write about them in very unpleasant terms but I might not do that, any way Daniel gives excellent Tech support to me for free and Andrew has given me permission to play with his Icybie anytime I want to so I am rather content. John has already given me two presents (which is very nice of him) a DVD and a sword. He may not do much, but he does give excellent Christmas presents.

About the “About me” section

I have wanted to put a spot about myself on my website for a long time as some people who casually glance through might not know who “Eowyn”, “Daniel”, “John”, and “Andrew” are. So Daniel said that to have one all I had to do was write it in a post and post it, then he would put a link on my websites main page. The post immediately before this one is the about me post and I thought I would make some sort of explanation about it. It is amazing how spell check does not consider Eowyn a correctly spelled word.

About ME!!!

Sorry about the very emphatic way of writing me, but that is one of the things I do on my website. I don’t use bold italics often but I do use …, (), and so forth very often. My name is Elizabeth Joy Von Fange. Von Fange is my last name it is much less common than Smith. I live in South Carolina with my parents and three older brothers. My brother’s names are Daniel(I talk about him frequently), John(he isn’t mentioned as much), and Andrew(he is my youngest brother though not my younger brother). I am currently 15 years old and I won’t be sixteen until September 26th. Something that you will find out if you read my website much is that I like getting presents, I also am not good at subtle hints.

I have a laptop named Eowyn. Eowyn is a Mac Ibook and I named her because a friend of mine had just gotten an Ibook and named it. Since Eowyn was once called “White lady of Rohan” I named my laptop that. I also have Pc laptop named Arwen. Since Eowyn has internet and Arwen doesn’t I don’t use Arwen much but she is there when Eowyn breaks done.

I am home-schooled, and I like being home-schooled except for when I am doing school.

I enjoy posting and although I try to post every day sometimes I forget. I try to post posts that are very humorous and enjoyable but if I don’t it was probably because I wasn’t feeling well that day. Also I do like the books of “The Lord of the Rings” incase that isn’t obvious from my computer names. I also am very good at completely changing the subject and writing down whatever goes through my head. I call it “Rambling” and it is very interesting to not have any idea of what you are going to write and still be able to make a very long post. I usually post late at night because I forget to do it earlier. Also language is not my best subject in school and I am the master of the Great Run-On Sentence. I am not the best in spelling either but spell-check is very nice. I also forget to proof read so if you see a put instead of a but I hope that you will understand what is meant. I seldom go back and correct but I do sometimes.

I also enjoy playing on Neopets.com, and if you would like to go there please click on my neopet.

I hope that you enjoy my posts and will read them. I would greatly enjoy comments, that way I know that some one has been to my website. Thank you for visiting Bethjoy.com and please tell your friends.(and remember to use as many parenthesis as possible(I like parenthesis(one time I did a post and it had fourteen parenthesis in a row(that was rather amazing(I don’t think I’ll do fourteen in a row now but I might(this is a case of extreme rambling and means I need to get up off the computer before I post too much!)))))) Six parenthesis in a row, not bad! And don’t worry, I usually don’t write like this(all though I do sometimes(Now I really should stop!)).

END OF THE “About ME!!!” POST OF DOOM!!!
